N-glycosylation engineering in chimeric antigen receptor T cells enhances anti-tumor activity
2023-01-23
Abstract excerpt
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has had limited success in solid tumors, requiring novel enhancement strategies. Modifying the glycocalyx of CAR T cells is unexplored; we report on genome-editing of the MGAT5 gene to abolish human CAR T N-glycan poly-LacNAc modifications. This boosted tumor control in carcinoma and lymphoma models, for donors of whom the non-engineered CAR T cells largely failed in...
