Abstract:Bacteria can bypass the blood-brain barrier (BBB) transcellularly, paracellularly and/or in infected phagocytes, suggesting the possibility of employment of bacteria for combating central nervous system (CNS) diseases. However, the bacteria-based drug delivery vehicle crossing the BBB is still vacant up to present. Herein, we develop an innovative bacteria-based drug delivery system (dubbed Trojan bacteria) for glioblastoma (GBM) photothermal immunotherapy. Typically, Trojan bacteria are made of therapeutics i… Show more
