Next-generation cell therapies: the emerging role of CAR-NK cells
Next-Generation Cell Therapies: The Emerging Role of CAR-NK Cells explores the transformative potential of chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cells in cell therapy, particularly for treating recurrent or refractory B-cell malignancies. While CAR-T cells have revolutionized the field, they come with significant practical, logistical, and toxicity challenges in both autologous and allogeneic settings. This blog delves into how CAR-NK cells, with their unique biological properties and established safety profile in allogeneic environments, are emerging as a promising alternative, potentially overcoming the limitations faced by CAR-T cell therapies.
Chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cell design and engineering for cancer therapy
Chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cell design and engineering for cancer therapy Summary Natural killer (NK) cells are specialized immune cells that can be genetically manipulated to produce capable effector cells for adoptive cellular therapy of cancer patients due to their rapid detection and lysis of malignant cells. However, biological and technical barriers to […]
