The Other Face of Chimeric Antigen Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2014
The concept of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) was pioneered in 1989 by Eshhar and colleagues with the specific goal of providing an alternative means by which T lymphocytes can engage antigens expressed by target cells.1 Until recently, the focus of CAR–T cell research has been on achieving effector function in T lymphocytes that can target cancer ...

Targeting Cancer Stem Cells by Genetically Engineered Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
The term cancer stem cell (CSC) starts 25 years ago with the evidence that CSC is a subpopulation of tumor cells that have renewal ability and can differentiate into several distinct linages.

Cytomorphology of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cells (CAR-T)

open access: yesMediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2021
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells represent one of the newest frontiers of cell therapy. Their application currently involves relapsed/refractory aggressive B cell lymphoma and leukemia as a standard of care, while several studies are exploring CAR-

The promise and potential pitfalls of chimeric antigen receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 2009
One important purpose of T cell engineering is to generate tumor-targeted T cells through the genetic transfer of antigen-specific receptors, which consist of either physiological, MHC-restricted T cell receptors (TCRs) or non MHC-restricted chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). CARs combine antigen-specificity and T cell activating properties in a single

Chimeric Antigen Receptors Targeting Human Cytomegalovirus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Abstract Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a ubiquitous pathogen that causes significant morbidity in some vulnerable populations. Individualized adoptive transfer of ex vivo expanded CMV-specific CD8+ T cells has provided proof-of-concept that immunotherapy can be highly effective, but a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) approach would ...

Activated iNKT cells enhance the anti-tumor effect of antigen specific CD8 T cells on mesothelin-expressing salivary gland cancer

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2018
Background Salivary gland cancers are not sensitive to conventional radiotherapy or chemotherapy regimens. Therefore, the development of a new treatment strategy is of critical importance for improving the prognosis.

Natural killer cell immunotherapy in glioblastoma

open access: yesDiscover Oncology, 2022
Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most difficult cancers to treat because GBM has the high therapeutic resistance. Recently, immunotherapies for GBM have been used instead of conventional treatments.
