Invited Review: Translational Hematology The CD28 Family: a T Cell Rheostat for Therapeutic Control of T Cell Activation

ساخت گیرنده کایمریک لنفوسیت T دارای کمک محرک OX40 علیه سلول‌های سرطان سینه

Background and Objective: Chimeric antigen T cell receptors provide a good approach for adoptive immunotherapy of cancer. In this new kind of chimeric T cell receptor, nanobodies are replaced as variable fragment of T cell receptor. Nanobodies (VHH) are the smallest fragments of antibodies that have great homology to human VH and low immunogenic potential. VHH-hing-CD28-CD3و construct was made ...

B and T Lymphocyte Attenuator is a Target of miR-155 during Naive CD4+ T Cell Activation

Background: MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is upregulated during T cell activation, but the exact mechanisms by which it influences CD4+ T cell activation remain unclear. Objective: To examine whether the B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) is a target of miR-155 during naïve CD4+ T cell activation. Methods: Firefly luciferase reporter plasmids pEZX-MT01-wild-type-BTLA and pEZX-MT01-mutant-BTLA were ...

Effect of Anti-CD3/CD28 Dynabeads and Allogeneic PBMCs on Expansion of Anti-MUC1 Chimeric Receptor T Cells

Background and purpose: In recent years, immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T cells) has been considered as a novel and promising treatment for some diseases, especially cancer. The CAR T cell production is a multi-step, complex, time-consuming, and costly process. One of the most important steps in production of CAR T cells is expansion of these cells at appropriate num...

Recent Advances in T Cell Signaling in Aging

The immune system of mammalian organisms undergoes alterations that may account for an increased susceptibility to certain infections, autoimmune diseases, or malignancies. Well characterized are age related defect in T cell functions and cell mediated immunity. Although it is well established that the functional properties of T cells decrease with age, its biochemical and molecular nature is...
