The discovery of CAR T-cell therapy has ushered in a new era in the field of cancer treatment. In this therapy, scientists utilize gene modification techniques to re-engineer patients' T cells into CAR T cells with specific antigen recognition capabilities. These CAR T cells can effectively locate and attack cancer cells, thereby achieving the goal of treating malignant tumors. Anti-hCD19-CAR(3G) represents the third generation of CAR T-cell therapy, targeting the human CD19 antigen, which is widely expressed in B-cell malignancies. This new generation of CAR T cells exhibits enhanced anti-tumor activity and prolonged efficacy, providing patients with improved treatment opportunities. The establishment of the Anti-hCD19-CAR(3G) stable cell line - THP-1, a human monocytic cell line, involves the stable integration of the Anti-hCD19-CAR(3G) construct into THP-1 cells, offering a critical tool for evaluating the functionality of CAR T cells. This cell line's establishment enables researchers to more accurately simulate the mechanisms and effects of CAR T cells in vitro, thereby expediting the clinical application process of CAR T-cell therapy.
CAR T cell therapy for CD19 B cell malignancies may be limited by acute toxicities and immunoglobulin replacement due to persistent CAR T cell-induced B cell aplasia. Researchers developed a mouse model to investigate the toxicity mechanisms of Anti-hCD19-CAR and test safer CAR T cells. By transferring human CD19-specific mouse CAR T cells into mice with hemizygous hCD19 transgene expression, resembling human B cells, they observed undetectable tumor levels and B cell aplasia in recipients. Toxicities, including cytokine release syndrome, mirrored patient complications. IL-6, IFN-γ, and inflammatory pathway transcripts were enriched in affected tissues. Neutralization of IL-6 attenuated toxicity, while decreased microglial cells suggested neurotoxicity. This model will aid in evaluating strategies to enhance the safety of hCD19-specific CAR T cells.
Figure 1. Researchers investigated the impact of Anti-hCD19-CAR on CART-19 T cells activation. They cocultured CART-19 T cells with hCD19TG+/− B cells and observed increased CD marker expression and cytokine production. Additionally, CART-19 T cells effectively eliminated hCD19TG+/− B cells in vitro and in vivo, highlighting their potent anti-tumor activity.(Pennell CA, et al., 2018)
