The Other Face of Chimeric Antigen Receptors [PDF]
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 ...

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

Conditionally Replicating Vectors Mobilize Chimeric Antigen Receptors against HIV
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an attractive target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy. CAR T cells have proved remarkably potent in targeted killing of cancer cells, and we surmised that CAR T cells could prove useful in eradicating HIV ...

Chimeric Antigen Receptors Targeting Human Cytomegalovirus [PDF]
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 ...
