Targeting CD5 chimeric antigen receptor-engineered natural killer cells against T-cell malignancies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chimeric antigen receptor engineered T cells (CAR-T) have demonstrated promising clinical efficacy in B-cell malignancies, and the approach has been extended to T-cell malignancies. However, the use of allogeneic T cells in CAR therapy poses a challenge due to the risk of graft-versus-host disease. Recently, natural killer (NK) cells have exhibited "off‑the‑shelf" availability. The nanobody-based CAR structures have attracted much attention for their therapeutic potential owing to the advantages of nanobody, including small size, optimal stability, high affinity and manufacturing feasibility. CD5, a common surface marker of malignant T cells, has three scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domains (D1-D3) in the extracellular region. The present study aims to construct "off‑t
