Ultrasound-powered MXene hydrogels for enhancing tumor inhibition and immune stimulation by the piezoelectric effect

studies show that the hydrogel offers great therapeutic efficacy to control tumor growth due to the combined effects of the piezoelectric effect and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. It improves dendritic cell maturation and increases cytotoxic T-cells. Therefore, our work presents a novel piezoelectric hydrogel and new therapeutic strategies with great potential and versatility for treating breast cancers.
