A new cancer treatment is making waves for its impressive breakthroughs in the treatment of haematological malignancies. In this issue of HealthNews, we take a look at the basics of CAR T-cell Therapy and how patients will benefit. What is CAR T-cell Therapy?
In a recent interview with Pharmacy Times, Lee Greenberger, PhD, chief scientific officer of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, said the development of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies is a major step for the treatment of some cancers. ...

因此,利用基于bNAb的CAR T疗法更加安全,因为这些bNAbs是专门针对HIV 包膜糖蛋白,而CD4在自然界可能有更多的同源物。然而,CAR在没有MHC I协助的情况下识别其特定抗原的能力引起了另一个问题,即它可能会识别可溶性抗原(如无细胞的或毒粒相关的HIV蛋白)并被激活然后释放细胞因子,对周围组织产生毒性,而不是专门针对被H...
Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy is regarded as an effective solution for relapsed or refractory tumors, particularly for hematological malignancies. Although the initially approved anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy has produced impressive outcomes
stresses, telomere damage, and regulatory T (Treg) cells [4,10]. Here, we summarize recent findings of the role of senescent T cells in hematological malignancies as well as possibilities to restore function of senescent and exhausted T cells for immunotherapies, such as CAR-T cell therapy. ...
The field of CAR-T cell therapy has rapidly progressed over the past decade, and to make this promising treatment more accessible, CAR-T manufacturing needs to be more robust. Currently, 3 µm iron-oxide microbeads coated with antibodies targeting CD3 and CD28 are still the only clinical pro...
This literature review explores the role of Tcell subsets in A.fumigatus infection, and the effects of CAR-T cell therapy on this fungal infection. Introduction Aspergillosis is a broad-spectrum fungal infection caused by the Aspergillus genus, whichconsists of more than 300ubiquitous filamentous ...
• Monitor kidney and liver function test results, serum electrolyte levels, and CBC with white cell differential. • Evaluate for blood dyscrasias, particularly bleeding tendencies. Patient teaching • Tell patient that drug may significantly affect many body systems. Assure him that he'll be ...
The effectiveness of CAR T cell therapy against a variety of cancers, including solid tumors, could be boosted greatly by using CRISPR-Cas9 technology to knock out the gene for CD5, a protein found on the surface of T cells, according to a preclinical study from investigators at the Universi...
