Depiction of adoptive cell transfer therapy with CAR-engineered T cells. The first step in the production of CAR T-cells is the isolation of T cells from human blood. CAR T-cells may be manufactured either from the patient's own blood, known as an autologous treatment, or from the blood of a healthy donor, known as an allogeneic treatment. The ...
Engineered chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell delivery is the methodology by which clinicians introduce the cancer-targeting therapeutic system of the CAR-T cell to the human body. CAR-T cells, which utilizes genetic modification of human T-cells to contain antigen binding sequences in addition to the receptor systems CD4 or CD8 , are ...

CAR-T therapy exhibits distinct specificity compared to other adaptive immunotherapies and traditional cancer treatments such as chemotherapy. [8] CAR-T kill tumor cells specifically by targeting the tumor-associated antigens to keep the damage to healthy tissue at a minimum level.

T cell receptor T cell therapy (TCR-T) is a type of adoptive T-cell therapy that targets some cancers. TCR-T therapies use heterodimers made of alpha and beta peptide chains to recognize MHC-presented polypeptide fragment molecules. Unlike CAR-T, which uses cell surface antigens, TCR-T can recognize MHC's larger set of intracellular antigen ...
A diagram depicting CAR T-cell therapy from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Source: [2] CAR T-cell therapy is a type of personalized cancer immunotherapy designed to strengthen the patient’s own immune system to better fight cancer. The process begins by extracting T-cells, a type of
The diagram above represents the process of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR), this is a method of immunotherapy, which is a growing practice in the treatment of cancer. The final result should be a production of equipped T-cells that can recognize and fight the infected cancer cells in the body.
