Mast cell is responsible for triggering fast and strong allergic reactions. Chinese researches are trying to use this reaction to fight cancer.

Chinese scientists use allergy-like immune response for cancer therapy​

Instead of allowing mast cells to respond to allergens, the team reprogrammed them using IgE antibodies that recognize proteins found on tumor cells.

When these customized mast cells are injected into the bloodstream, they travel to tumors and unleash sudden bursts of inflammation upon encountering their specific cancer target.

Battery-integrated brain chip implant eliminates the risk of infection and enhances safety.
NeuroXess Achieves Milestone With China’s First Battery-Integrated Brain Chip Implant
...
Earlier generations of BCI products required battery modules to remain outside the skull and relied on external devices for power. NeuroXess’ product fully implants the core module containing the battery inside the body, integrating wireless power supply and wireless data transmission, allowing patients to dispense entirely with external equipment and fundamentally eliminating infection risks at the physical level, said Tao Hu, founder and chief scientist of NeuroXess.

The company has also placed the battery module subcutaneously in the chest and optimized the architecture of deep brain stimulation technology to move heat-generating components away from the brain, further enhancing system safety, Tao added.
