Abstrakt: Developing nanocarriers that can carry medications directly to tumors is an exciting development in cancer nanomedicine. The efficacy of this intriguing therapeutic approach is, however, compromised by intricate and immunosuppressive circumstances that arise concurrently with the onset of cancer. The artificial antigen presenting cell (aAPC), a micro or nanoparticle based device that mimics an antigen presenting cell by providing crucial signal proteins to T lymphocytes to activate them against cancer, is one cutting-edge method for cancer immunotherapy. This review delves into the critical design considerations for aAPCs, particularly focusing on particle size, shape, and the non-uniform distribution of T cell activating proteins on their surfaces. Adequate surface contact between T cells and aAPCs is essential for activation, prompting engineers to develop nano-aAPCs with microscale contact areas through techniques such as shape modification and nanoparticle clustering. Additionally, we explore recommendations for future advancements in this field.
