Preclinical assessment of the efficacy of B7-H3 CAR-T in renal cell carcinoma
B7-H3 is a type I transmembrane protein that belongs to the B7 immune checkpoint protein family, is aberrantly expressed in cancer cells, but rarely expressed in normal tissues, making it an attractive target for cancer therapy. Here, we found B7-H3 is highly expressed in the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tumor tissues and RCC cell lines, but is undetectable in normal renal tissues. Therefore, we engineered second-generation CAR-T cells targeting B7-H3, incorporating either CD28 or 4–1BB co-stimulatory domains. Both CAR-T cell variants demonstrated potent antitumor activity against RCC tumors in vitro and in metastatic and orthotopic RCC mouse models. Furthermore, the B7-H3 CAR-T cells exhibited remarkable proliferation and robust cytokine release when co-cultured with RCC cancer cells. These findings demonstrated that targeting B7-H3 by CAR-T cells potentially offering a new treatment option for RCC patients.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Immunology publishes original articles, reviews and commentaries on all areas of immunology, with a particular focus on description of cellular, biochemical or genetic mechanisms underlying immunological phenomena. Studies on all model organisms, from invertebrates to humans, are suitable. Examples include, but are not restricted to:
Infection, autoimmunity, transplantation, immunodeficiencies, inflammation and tumor immunology
Mechanisms of induction, regulation and termination of innate and adaptive immunity
Intercellular communication, cooperation and regulation
Intracellular mechanisms of immunity (endocytosis, protein trafficking, pathogen recognition, antigen presentation, etc)
Mechanisms of action of the cells and molecules of the immune system
Structural analysis
Development of the immune system
Comparative immunology and evolution of the immune system
"Omics" studies and bioinformatics
Vaccines, biotechnology and therapeutic manipulation of the immune system (therapeutic antibodies, cytokines, cellular therapies, etc)
Technical developments.
