Brewing a Cure: Engineering Yeast to Reduce Inflammation-Driven Tumors
摘要
Culpepper et al. developed a novel bioengineered yeast—Saccharomyces boulardii—designed to specifically target exposed fibronectin in inflamed intestinal tissues and release anti-TNF nanobodies with the goal of reducing inflammation-driven tumorigenesis in a mouse model of colorectal adenocarcinoma.
