摘要:
Disclosed herein are cells that are immune cells or precursor cells thereof, which cells recombinantly express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a cell-mediated immune response of the immune cell, wherein the CAR binds to a cancer antigen. Also disclosed herein are T cells that recognize and are sensitized to a cancer antigen, which T cells recombinantly express a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a T cell-mediated immune response. Additionally provided are methods of using such cells to treat cancer in a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are cells that are immunoinhibitory cell, which cells recombinantly express a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a cell-mediated immune response of the cell. In certain embodiments, the immunoinhibitory cell is a regulatory T cell. In another aspect, provided herein is a regulatory T cell that recombinantly expresses a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a regulatory T cell-mediated immune response. The cells can be sensitized to an antigen that is the target of a pathologic immune response associated with an immune-mediated disorder. Additionally provided are methods of using such cells to treat an immune-mediated disorder in a subject in need thereof.

Disclosed herein are cells that are immune cells, which cells recombinantly express a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a cell-mediated immune response of the immune cell, and optionally recombinantly express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR binds to a viral antigen. In certain embodiments, the immune cell is an immunostimulatory cell, such as a T cell. In certain embodiments, the immune cell is an immunoinhibitory cell, such as a regulatory T cell. Also disclosed herein are immune cells that recognize and are sensitized to a viral antigen, which immune cells recombinantly express a dominant negative form of an inhibitor of a cell-mediated immune response of the immune cell. The cells can be sensitized to an antigen that is a viral antigen. Additionally provided are methods of using such cells to treat a viral infection in a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are immunostimulatory cells recombinantly engineered for adoptive cellular therapy. Additionally provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising such immunostimulatory cells and methods of using such immunostimulatory cells to treat cancer or pathogen infections in a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for enhancing the immune response toward cancers and pathogens. The presently disclosed subject matter provides methods and compositions for enhancing the immune response toward cancers and pathogens. It relates to cells comprising a c-Kit mutant, e.g., a c-Kit mutant comprising an activating mutation. The cells can further comprise an antigen- recognizing receptor (e.g., a chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) or a T cell receptors (TCR)). The presently disclosed subject matter relates to the use of cells for treatment, e.g., treating cancers.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to methods, kits and systems for assessing cytotoxicity of immunoresponsive cells using a pleural effusion. The present disclosure also relates to methods, kits and systems for assessing effect of an immunotherapeutic agent on cytotoxicity of immunoresponsive cells using a pleural effusion.
