Immunotherapy Deriving from CAR-T Cell Treatment in Autoimmune Diseases
Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells are T cells engineered to express specific synthetic antigen receptors that can recognize antigens expressed by tumor cells, which after the binding of these antigens to the receptors are eliminated, and have ...

Myeloid conditioning with c-kit-targeted CAR-T cells enables donor stem cell engraftment [PDF]
We report a novel approach to bone marrow (BM) conditioning using c-kit-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (c-kit CAR-T) cells in mice. Previous reports using anti-c-kit or anti-CD45 antibody linked to a toxin such as saporin have been promising.

The case for absolute ligand discrimination : modeling information processing and decision by immune T cells [PDF]
Some cells have to take decision based on the quality of surroundings ligands, almost irrespective of their quantity, a problem we name "absolute discrimination". An example of absolute discrimination is recognition of not-self by immune T Cells. We show

CAR T-cell intrinsic PD-1 checkpoint blockade: A two-in-one approach for solid tumor immunotherapy
PD-L1/2 expression in solid tumors inhibits chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell efficacy. A PD-1 dominant negative receptor expressed in CAR T cells provides cell-intrinsic checkpoint blockade and augments antitumor efficacy.

Targeting the tumor microenvironment in colorectal peritoneal metastases
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) occurs in approximately one in four colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The pathophysiology of colorectal PM remains poorly characterized. Also, the efficacy of current treatment modalities, including surgery and intraperitoneal (

CAR-T cell. the long and winding road to solid tumors [PDF]
Adoptive cell therapy of solid tumors with reprogrammed T cells can be considered the "next generation" of cancer hallmarks. CAR-T cells fail to be as effective as in liquid tumors for the inability to reach and survive in the microenvironment ...

Production of Living Nanoparticles for Blood Cancer Therapy [PDF]
Current cancer therapies leave much to be desired because they are very harmful to the patient and cause a significant decrease in quality of life. Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CAR) are a promising novel approach for treating specific types of leukemia ...

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy for multiple myeloma
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a new cancer immunotherapy targeting cancer-specific cell surface antigen. CD19-CAR T cells have been already shown to be very effective to B cell leukemia/lymphoma.
