AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current CAR-T cell therapies are insufficient in targeting and eliminating cells expressing fibroblast activator protein (FAP), making it difficult to achieve specific recognition and effective elimination, thus affecting the treatment efficacy of various diseases.

Method used

T cells modified with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) can specifically recognize FAP through a single-chain antibody fragment (scFv), activate intracellular signaling pathways, release the cytokine IFN-γ, exhibit cytotoxic effects, and clear FAP+ cells.

Benefits of technology

It achieves specific clearance of FAP+ cells, providing a new treatment strategy for a variety of diseases such as fibrosis, arthritis, autoimmune diseases and cardiovascular diseases, and has broad application potential and commercial value.

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of cell therapy. Disclosed are a fibroblast activation protein-targeting CAR T-cell, a preparation method therefor, and an application thereof. A CAR T-cell can be prepared by introducing an FAP-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) into a T lymphocyte, wherein the CAR in the CAR T-cell comprises a signal peptide, an antigen-binding domain, a hinge region, a transmembrane domain, a co-stimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 signaling domain. The CAR T-cell specifically recognizes the FAP by means of a single-chain variable fragment (scFv), which activates an intracellular signaling pathway, releasing cytokine IFN-γ, and exhibiting a cytotoxic effect on FAP+ cells, thereby achieving specific depletion of FAP+ cells at a lesion site. The CAR-T cell can be used for treating diseases characterized by upregulated FAP expression, such as fibrosis (pulmonary fibrosis, hepatic fibrosis, cardiac fibrosis, renal fibrosis, etc.), arthritis, autoimmune disorders (Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.), and cardiovascular diseases, and demonstrates tremendous application potential and commercial value.
