Description
Summary:Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy represents a major breakthrough in the field of tumor immunotherapy. CD19-targeted CAR-T cells (CD19 CAR-T) have emerged as an important therapeutic approach for treating B-cell malignancies. We successfully constructed a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line with an anti-CD19 CAR knock-in using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene targeting technology. This cell line can stably express the CAR gene while maintaining its typical stem cell morphology and normal karyotype. Furthermore, this cell line possesses multilineage differentiation potential and can be directionally differentiated into various chimeric antigen receptor-expressing immune cells for targeting CD19-positive tumors.
