Abstract In the past decade, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has emerged as a promising immunotherapeutic approach for combating cancers, demonstrating remarkable efficacy in relapsed/refractory hematological malignancies both pediatric and adult patients. CAR-natural killer (CAR-NK) complements CAR-T by offering several distinct advantages. CAR-NK cells do not require HLA compatibility exhibit low safety concerns. Moreover, are conducive to “off-the-shelf” therapeutics, providing significant logistic advantages over cells. Both have shown consistent results malignancies. However, their against solid tumors remains limited due various obstacles including tumor trafficking infiltration, well an immuno-suppressive microenvironment. this review, we discuss recent advances current challenges of immunotherapies, with specific focus on application tumors. We also analyze depth drawbacks compared highlight CAR optimization. Finally, explore future perspectives these adoptive highlighting increasing contribution cutting-edge biotechnological tools shaping next generation cellular immunotherapy.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) -T cell therapy has achieved tremendous efficacy in the treatment of hematologic malignancies and represents a promising regimen for cancer. Despite striking response patients with malignancies, most solid tumors treated CAR-T cells have low rate experience major adverse effects, which indicates need biomarkers that can predict improve clinical outcomes future treatments. Recently, role gut microbiota cancer been established, growing evidence suggested signatures may be harnessed to personally therapeutic or effects optimizing therapy. In this review, we discuss current understanding microbiota, interplay between Above all, highlight potential strategies challenges harnessing as predictor modifier while attenuating toxicity.

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has revolutionized cancer immunotherapy, particularly for hematological malignancies. This personalized approach is based on genetically engineering cells derived from the patient to target antigens expressed—among others—on malignant cells. Nowadays they offer new hope where conventional therapies, such as chemotherapy and radiation, have often failed. Since first FDA approval in 2017, CAR rapidly expanded, proving highly effective against previously refractory diseases with otherwise a dismal outcome. Despite its promise, continues face significant challenges, including complex manufacturing, management of toxicities, resistance mechanisms that impact long-term efficacy, limited access well high costs, which continue shape ongoing research clinical applications. review aims provide an overview therapy, fundamental concepts, applications, current future directions

Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are synthetic that reprogram the target specificity and functions of CAR-expressing effector cells. The design CAR constructs typically includes an extracellular antigen-binding moiety, hinge (H), transmembrane (TM), intracellular signaling domains. Conventional primarily designed for T cells but have been directly adopted other cells, including natural killer (NK) without tailored optimization. Given benefits CAR-NK over CAR-T in terms safety, off-the-shelf utility, escape, there is increasing emphasis on tailoring them to NK cell activation mechanisms. We first taken a stepwise approach modifying components such as combination order H, TM, domains achieve Functionality NK-tailored CARs were evaluated vitro vivo model CD19-expressing lymphoma, along with their expression properties found NK-CAR driven by synergistic NKG2D 2B4 rather than DNAM-1 induces potent Further, more effective CAR-mediated cytotoxicity was observed following sequential DAP10, not domain despite capacity TM recruit endogenous DAP10 signaling. Accordingly, incorporating 2B4, CD3ζ coupled CD8α H CD28 identified most promising candidate improve cytotoxicity. This provided antitumor activity conventional T-CAR when delivered both vivo. Hence, receptor-based hold great promise future potentially significant therapeutic benefits.
