EVIR: Chimeric receptors that enhance dendritic cell cross-dressing with tumor antigens
We describe a lentivirus-encoded chimeric receptor, termed extracellular vesicle (EV)-internalizing receptor (EVIR), which enables the selective uptake of cancer cell-derived EVs by dendritic cells (DCs). The EVIR enhances DC presentation of EV-associated tumor antigens to CD8(+) T cells primarily t...

Sumario: | We describe a lentivirus-encoded chimeric receptor, termed extracellular vesicle (EV)-internalizing receptor (EVIR), which enables the selective uptake of cancer cell-derived EVs by dendritic cells (DCs). The EVIR enhances DC presentation of EV-associated tumor antigens to CD8(+) T cells primarily through MHCI recycling and cross-dressing. EVIR-engineered DCs may increase the applications of DC-based cancer vaccines. |
