Synergistic integration of mRNA-LNP with CAR-engineered immune cells: Pioneering progress in immunotherapy

Zhaozhao Chen et al. Mol Ther. .

Abstract

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy has emerged as a revolutionary approach in the treatment of malignancies. Despite its remarkable successes, this field continues to grapple with challenges such as scalability, safety concerns, limited therapeutic effect, in vivo persistence, and the need for precise control over CAR expression. In the post-pandemic era of COVID-19 vaccine immunization, the application of messenger RNA (mRNA) encapsulated within lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) has recently garnered significant attention as a potential solution to address these challenges. This review delves into the dynamic landscape of mRNA-LNP technology and its potential implications for CAR-engineered immune cell-based immunotherapy.

Keywords: CAR-engineered immune cells; chimeric antigen receptor; immunotherapy; mRNA-LNP.
