Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of tumor cell therapy, more specifically, to the field of transgenic T lymphocyte therapy for epithelial-derived tumors expressing EGFRvIII or highly expressing EGFR. Background technique
[0002] Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 170KD. It is the expression product of the proto-oncogene C-erbB-1 (HER-1), and is widely distributed in various tissues of the human body. On the cell membrane [Alan Wells. Molecules in focus EGF receptor. Int J Biochem Cell Biol, 1999, 31: 637-643.]. It is overexpressed and (or ) mutations are closely related to tumor development, malignant transformation, metastasis and prognosis [Jose B. Why the epidermal growth factor receptor? The rational for cancer therapy [J]. Oncologist, 2002, 7(4): 2-8.]. Therefore, EGFR is an important target for tumor therapy. In addition, studies have shown that the EGFR287-302 epitope...
