401 results about "Endoplasmic reticulum" patented technology

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a type of organelle found in eukaryotic cells that forms an interconnected network of flattened, membrane-enclosed sacs or tube-like structures known as cisternae. The membranes of the ER are continuous with the outer nuclear membrane. The endoplasmic reticulum occurs in most types of eukaryotic cells, but is absent from red blood cells and spermatozoa.

Application of GADD34 inhibitor in preparation of medicine for enhancing CAR-T cell tumor treatment

The invention relates to the field of biological medicine, and discloses application of a GADD34 inhibitor in preparation of a medicine for enhancing CAR-T cell tumor treatment. The invention provides an innovative strategy for inhibiting CAR-T cell depletion through targeted regulation and control of an endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway to solve the problems that in an existing CAR-T therapy, the anti-tumor activity is reduced, and the solid tumor treatment effect is insufficient due to T cell depletion. Researches find that an IRE1-XBP1 pathway is used as a core signal axis of endoplasmic reticulum stress, and excessive activation of the IRE1-XBP1 pathway can drive CAR-T cell depletion related phenotypes (such as PD-1 / LAG-3 up regulation and cytokine secretion reduction). Screening experiments show that inhibiting the upstream regulatory factor GADD34 of the IRE1 not only can effectively reduce the IRE1-XBP1 signal intensity, but also can cooperatively relieve the endoplasmic reticulum stress pressure by regulating protein translation recovery, so that the CAR-T cell steady state is more comprehensively maintained. Therefore, the GADD34 inhibitor can provide a new way for enhancing CAR-T cell tumor treatment.
