The invention belongs to the technical fields of
immunotherapy, bioengineering,
gene therapy and
cell therapy, and provides a preparation method of an enhanced CAR-
T cell for overexpressing LYAR, and the enhanced CAR-
T cell and application thereof in order to solve the problems that the killing function of the CAR-
T cell in
solid tumor treatment is limited, the durability is poor, and function depletion is likely to occur. CDNA of the LYAR
gene is cloned to an overexpression
plasmid vector and packaged into
lentivirus, T cells are jointly infected by the
lentivirus and the CAR expression
virus, the LYAR
gene is forced to express under the driving of an EF-1alpha
promoter, and stable overexpression of the LYAR in the CAR-T cells is achieved; and the CAR is a CAR targeting EGFR (
epidermal growth factor receptor) and CD19. According to the present invention, the gene coding LYAR and the CAR gene are simultaneously transferred into the T
cell through the
lentivirus infection technology, and are compulsively expressed under the action of the EF1 alpha
promoter, such that the anti-tumor function of the CAR-T
cell can be significantly enhanced, and the activation and killing functions of the immune cell can be improved;
