Protein L: a novel reagent for the detection of Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) expression by flow cytometry

Description :

Abstract

Background

There has been significant progress in the last two decades on the design of chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) for adoptive immunotherapy targeting tumor-associated antigens. Structurally CARs consist of a single chain antibody fragment directed against a tumor-as...

Lack of specific γ-retroviral vector long terminal repeat promoter silencing in patients receiving genetically engineered lymphocytes and activation upon lymphocyte restimulation

Description : Retroviral transduction of tumor antigen-specific T-cell receptor (TCR) genes into lymphocytes redirects T cells to lyse tumors. Furthermore, adoptive transfer of these lymphocytes has mediated objective responses in patients with metastatic cancer. From 2004 to 2006, more than 40 patients were trea...

Improving Adoptive T Cell Therapy by Targeting and Controlling IL-12 Expression to the Tumor Environment

Description : Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is an important immunostimulatory cytokine, yet its clinical application has been limited by the systemic toxicity associated with its administration. In this work, we developed a strategy to selectively deliver IL-12 to the tumor environment using genetically engineered lymph...

The Chapel Hill hemophilia A dog colony exhibits a factor VIII gene inversion

Description : In the Chapel Hill colony of factor VIII-deficient dogs, abnormal sequence (ch8, for canine hemophilia 8, GenBank no. AF361485) follows exons 1–22 in the factor VIII transcript in place of exons 23–26. The canine hemophilia 8 locus (ch8) sequence was found in a 140-kb normal dog genomic DNA bacteria...

Lentiviral Vector Design for Optimal T Cell Receptor Gene Expression in the Transduction of Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes and Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes

Description : Lentiviral vectors containing promoters of distinct origins, that is, strong viral promoters (cytomegalovirus [CMV] and murine stem cell virus [MSCV]), a cellular promoter (phosphoglycerate kinase [PGK]), and two composite promoters (CAG [a composite promoter sequence comprised of the CMV enhancer a...

Cytokine-independent growth and clonal expansion of a primary human CD8+ T-cell clone following retroviral transduction with the IL-15 gene

Description : Malignancies arising from retrovirally transduced hematopoietic stem cells have been reported in animal models and human gene therapy trials. Whether mature lymphocytes are susceptible to insertional mutagenesis is unknown. We have characterized a primary human CD8+ T-cell clone, which exhibited log...
