4-1BB-encoding CAR causes cell death via sequestration of the ubiquitin-modifying enzyme A20

Background Introduction Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) have shown great potential in immunotherapy for certain hematological malignancies. However, how the CD28 and 4-1BB costimulatory domains included in CAR molecules function in CAR-T cells is still not fully understood. Both CD28 and 4-1BB domains exhibit significantly different...

Therapeutic Intervention in Neuroinflammation for Neovascular Ocular Diseases through Targeting the cGAS-STING pathway

The Key Role of Retina Microglia in Pathological Angiogenesis and the Immunotherapeutic Potential of the cGAS-STING Pathway Background Pathological angiogenesis is common in various neovascular ophthalmic diseases, such as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) [1]. During these diseases, bone marrow cells, including r...
