Abstract
Toxicity and immune evasion have hindered the success of CAR T cells in HER2-positive solid tumors. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Hosking et al. present an iPSC-derived CAR T cell product engineered for tumor-selective targeting, resistance to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, enhanced persistence and trafficking, and mitigation of antigen escape.
期刊介绍:
Cell Stem Cell is a comprehensive journal covering the entire spectrum of stem cell biology. It encompasses various topics, including embryonic stem cells, pluripotency, germline stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells, differentiation, epigenetics, genomics, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, disease models, nuclear transfer technology, bioengineering, drug discovery, in vivo imaging, therapeutic applications, regenerative medicine, clinical insights, research policies, ethical considerations, and technical innovations. The journal welcomes studies from any model system providing insights into stem cell biology, with a focus on human stem cells. It publishes research reports of significant importance, along with review and analysis articles covering diverse aspects of stem cell research.
