The instant disclosure teaches a highly efficient cellulose-based nanoadsorbent that can capture more than 6000 mg of doxorubicin (DOX), one of the most widely used chemotherapy drugs, per gram of the adsorbent at physiological conditions. Such drug capture capacity is more than 3200% higher than other nanoadsorbents, such as DNA-based platforms. The disclosure teaches how anionic hairy cellulose nanocrystals, also known as electrosterically stabilized nanocrystalline cellulose (ENCC), bind to positively charged drugs in human serum and capture DOX immediately without imposing any cytotoxicity and hemolytic effects. The disclosure further elucidates how ENCC provides a remarkable platform for biodetoxification at varying pH, ionic strength, ion type, and protein concentration. These discoveries pave the way for the next generation in vitro and in vivo drug capture additives and devices.

Abrégé
The invention described relates to the newly discovered ability of tumor internalizing arginylglycylaspartic acid (iRGD) peptides to alter the immune cell landscape in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and other cancers. The iRGD peptides sensitize the cancer to immune checkpoint inhibitors, for example anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L1. anti-PD-1, and anti-CTLA4 monoclonal antibodies to specifically deplete Tregs within the tumor, resulting in expansion of intratumoral CD8+ T cells (effector cells). This provides methods of treating cancers such as PDAC, preferably in synergistic combination with chemotherapy and immunotherapy, which leads to reduced tumor burden and prolonged survival.

An apparatus for a lateral flow nucleic acid assay with an integrated pore-based detector, which has the potential to detect pathogens, both microbial and viral, in aqueous samples in approximately 5 minutes or less without nucleic acid amplification or optical components. The detector is based on an electromechanical signal transduction mechanism that enables low-cost detection of DNA/RNA at ultralow concentrations (down to about 10 M to about 19 M). The scheme relies on the use of charge-neutral peptide nucleic acid (PNA) capture probe conjugated to polystyrene beads. The PNA-beads acquire substantial negative charge upon capture of target pathogenic DNA/RNA and become mobile in an electric field. Upon application of a bias voltage of around 1 V to 2 V, the PNA-beads with hybridized target are directed electrophoretically to a smaller diameter pore. Subsequent pore blockage results in a strong, sustained drop in measured ionic current through the pore.
