Gene Expression-Based Identification of Antigen-Responsive CD8+ T Cells on a Single-Cell Level

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
CD8+ T cells are important effectors of adaptive immunity against pathogens, tumors, and self antigens. Here, we asked how human cognate antigen-responsive CD8+ T cells and their receptors could be identified in unselected single-cell gene expression ...

Post-translational covalent assembly of CAR and synNotch receptors for programmable antigen targeting

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and synthetic Notch (synNotch) receptors are engineered cell-surface receptors that sense a target antigen and respond by activating T cell receptor signaling or a customized gene program, respectively.

Molecular and cellular insights into T cell exhaustion

open access: yesNature reviews. Immunology, 2015
In chronic infections and cancer, T cells are exposed to persistent antigen and/or inflammatory signals. This scenario is often associated with the deterioration of T cell function: a state called 'exhaustion'.

Comparison of lentiviral and sleeping beauty mediated αβ T cell receptor gene transfer.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Transfer of tumour antigen-specific receptors to T cells requires efficient delivery and integration of transgenes, and currently most clinical studies are using gamma retroviral or lentiviral systems.

High-throughput and single-cell T cell receptor sequencing technologies

open access: yesNature Methods, 2021
T cells express T cell receptors (TCRs) composed of somatically recombined TCRα and TCRβ chains, which mediate recognition of major histocompatibility complex (MHC)–antigen complexes and drive the antigen-specific adaptive immune response to pathogens ...

The application of CAR-T cell therapy in hematological malignancies: advantages and challenges

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2018
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T cell) therapy is a novel adoptive immunotherapy where T lymphocytes are engineered with synthetic receptors known as chimeric antigen receptors (CAR).

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Antibody-gamma/delta T cell receptors targeting GPC2 regress neuroblastoma with low antigen density

open access: yesCell Reports Medicine
Summary: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have shown promise in hematological cancers but face challenges in solid tumors, partly due to heterogeneous antigen density. Glypican-2 (GPC2) is an oncofetal antigen highly expressed in neuroblastoma and

Improving Chimeric Antigen Receptor-Modified T Cell Function by Reversing the Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment of Pancreatic Cancer.

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2017
The adoptive transfer of T cells redirected to tumor-associated antigens via transgenic expression of chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has produced tumor responses, even in patients with refractory diseases. To target pancreatic cancer, we generated CAR
