MELK prevents radiofrequency ablation-induced immunogenic cell death and antitumor immune response by stabilizing FABP5 in hepatocellular malignancies

    • MELK prevents radiofrequency ablation-induced immunogenic cell death and antitumor immune response by stabilizing FABP5 in hepatocellular malignancies

    • “In the field of liver cancer treatment, researchers have made significant progress. They found that radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment upregulated MELK expression, and MELK inhibition promoted RFA efficacy by immunogenic cell death and the antitumor response. Targeting MELK via RGD-LNPs provides new insight into improving RFA efficacy in HCC clinical treatment and combating the malignant progression of liver cancer.”
