In Episode 118, Host Erin Harris talks to Alexander Cryer, Ph.D., Instructor in Medicine at Mass General Brigham, about a proof of concept strategy that reprograms tumor cells with mRNA lipid nanoparticles to overactivate the cGAS-STING pathway, forcing cancer cells to produce and export large amounts of the innate immune agonist cGAMP to stimulate surrounding immune cells and drive anti-tumor immunity. Dr. Cryer explains the basic biolog...
