Aggregable Nanoparticles-Enabled Chemotherapy and Autophagy Inhibition Combined with Anti-PD-L1 Antibody for Improved Glioma Treatment

Glioma treatment using targeted chemotherapy is still far from satisfactory due to not only the limited accumulation but also the multiple survival mechanisms of glioma cells, including up-regulation of both autophagy and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. Herein, we proposed a combined therapeutic regimen based on functional gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-enabled chemotherapy, autophagy inhibition, and blockade of PD-L1 immune...
