Near-infrared optogenetic engineering of bacteria for cancer therapy
Abstract:
A near-infrared optogenetic system was developed for the controlled expression of therapeutics in engineered oncolytic bacteria, demonstrating significant anti-tumor efficacy in multiple tumor mouse models. This approach offers a non-invasive, customizable method for targeted solid tumor therapy and has broader applications in engineered living therapeutics.

Lighting Up Cancer Dynamics.
Abstract:
Live-cell microscopy has revealed that signaling pathways carry elaborate time-varying activities. Yet, the connection between these dynamics and cellular disease has remained elusive. Recent work leverages cellular optogenetics to analyze the Ras-to-Erk transfer function in cancer cells. These analyses reveal how changes to the filtering properties of a pathway lead to the misperception of extracellular events. Overall, these studies suggest that mutations do not simply hyperactivate pathways but rather can also change their transmission properties in more subtle ways.
