The work proposed a novel delivery strategy for CAR-T cells and highlighted the pivotal role of tumor-draining lymph nodes (tdLNs) in immunotherapy for solid tumors.</p><p>CAR-T cell therapy has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in the treatment of B cell malignancies and multiple myeloma in recent years. Due to the poor infiltration of CAR-T cells within the tumor, its effectiveness in solid tumor remains limited. However, Shi's work offered a novel CAR-T cells' delivery approach which exhibits a distinct clinical application scenario and holds significant potential for clinical implementation (Figure 1).</p><p>Shi et al. washed LNs in ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline and lyophilized the frozen LNs quickly for 4 h or overnight. Then they infused CAR-T cells into L-LNs to construct CAR-T@L-LNs, and characterized the CAR-T@L-LNs using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and immunofluorescence staining, demonstrating its successful construction with a CAR-T cells loading efficiency of up to 93%. They subsequently confirmed in vitro that L-LNs could preserve CAR-T cells activity and sustain their proliferation, as well as maintain a continuous release profile of CAR-T cells. Finally, partial resection models were used to validate the therapeutic efficacy of CAR-T@L-LNs in suppressing postoperative recurrence of solid tumors.</p><p>In terms of the material preparation, L-LNs exhibit the following characteristics: (1) minimal presence of viable cells, (2) preservation of suitable pores (~3–10 μm in size) for CAR-T cells loading, and (3) maintenance of a cytokine environment akin to that found in fresh lymph nodes. These attributes elucidate the outcomes observed in subsequent analyses investigating the biological functionalities of L-LNs. The elimination of living cells through lyophilizing prevents tumor cells' infiltration and mitigates any potential impact from immune cells on CAR-T cells' function within the lymph nodes. The retained structures postlyophilizing ensures a high CAR-T cells loading rate. Moreover, the presence of a cytokine milieu resembling that found in fresh lymph nodes ensures the robust proliferation of CAR-T cells.</p><p>In terms of antitumor functions, Shi's treatment modality involving loading CAR-T cells onto L-LNs has demonstrated significant inhibition of residual tumor growth, exhibiting superior therapeutic effects compared to both direct intravenous injection and encapsulating CAR-T cells in hydrogel with cytokines.

Clot formation under shear for both rWB and WB led to increased clot mass through storage. No significant deviation from baseline was appreciated until Day 70 of storage in rWB. Increasing degrees of thrombolysis were seen in both groups, with rWB significantly deviating from baseline at Day 70.

This patch could be utilized in posterior scleral reinforcement (PSR) surgery, to correct high myopia by shortening the axial length (AXL) and reinforce the sclera to prevent myopia recurrence.</p><p>Myopia is a state of refraction in which parallel rays of light coming from infinity are brought to focus in front of the retina. The mechanism of myopia involves various signals traveling from the retina through the choroid to the sclera, eventually resulting in scleral weakening and AXL elongation. The elongation of the AXL occurs, causing light to fail to converge on the retina. This also leads to various complications arising from changes in the posterior segment structures of the eye, including posterior staphyloma and myopic maculopathy, which in turn, contributes to the continual expansion of the globe in the posterior direction.</p><p>There are many surgical options available for patients with high myopia. Myopic patients could avoid wearing glasses through corneal laser surgery and Implantable Collamer Lens surgery, which work by flattening the cornea or adding lenses to the anterior chamber to help converge light on the retina. However, these surgeries are purely optical corrections and do not address the pathological changes in the posterior segment structure in myopic eyeballs. Comparatively, traditional PSR surgery aims to strengthen the weakened posterior sclera by ocular patch. The technique was first reported by Shevelev in 1930 and was later modified by Snyder and Thompson. The primary goal of PSR surgery is to reinforce the weakened sclera, not to shorten the AXL to achieve perfect light convergence on the retina. Thus, PSR surgery is particularly essential for patients with high myopia and related complications. In light of the research background, Zhong et al. proposed the concept, that shortening AXL by a novel PSR surgery, is remarkably groundbreaking, potentially allowing for precise and personalized treatment of AXL shortening for patients with high myopia by PSR. Furthermore, traditional macular buckle is primarily used to treat macular schisis in high myopia, addressing the traction on the retina caused by posterior staphyloma in the macular area and promoting the reattachment of the macular schisis.

Meniscal injury is among the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders affecting the knee, frequently arising from acute traumatic events, sports-related activities (such as sudden pivoting and stopping in basketball and soccer), or age-related degenerative alterations. Based on the pathological morphology of the injury, meniscal tears can be classified into vertical tears (longitudinal and radial tears), horizontal tears (most common), and complex tears (involving multiple tear patterns). These injuries may lead to debilitating symptoms, including pain, swelling, instability, and restricted mobility.<span>^{3, 4}</span> Meniscal injuries primarily affect young individuals, characterized clinically by local bleeding, exudation, and acute inflammation.

However, the sparse distribution and poor vascularization of meniscal fibrocartilage cells, which occupy only 10%–30% of the meniscal thickness, often impede spontaneous healing, leading to the necessity of surgical intervention in most cases. Current treatment options primarily include meniscal repair, partial or complete meniscectomy, and allograft transplantation. Among these, meniscal repair aims to preserve as much healthy meniscal tissue as possible and is considered the gold standard in clinical practice. However, it is frequently constrained by tear location, size, and tissue quality. Conversely, meniscectomy addresses mechanical irritation from meniscal injury by removing the damaged portion or the entire meniscus. However, post-meniscectomy regeneration is limited, resulting in narrow, thin, and nonfunctional tissue. Although this approach can alleviate related symptoms, biomechanical studies indicate minimal meniscal tissue removal increases cartilage contact stress, reducing the natural meniscus's protective function.
