Improving Cancer Immunotherapy with CRISPR-Based Technology.
Advanced Biosystems 2020 November
The rapidly evolving field of immunotherapy has attracted great attention in the field of cancer research and already revolutionized the clinical practice standard for treating cancer. Genetically engineered T cells expressing either T cell receptors or chimeric antigen receptors represent novel treatment modalities and are considered powerful weapons to fight cancer. The immune checkpoint blockade, which harnesses the negative control signaling behind the anti-tumor immune response with therapeutic antibodies by blocking cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 or the programmed cell death 1 pathways are another mainstream direction for cancer immunotherapy. In addition to cytotoxic T cells, other immune cell types such as nature killer cells and macrophages also possess the ability to eradicate cancer cells, which may serve as the basis to develop novel cancer immunotherapies. The advent of cutting-edge genome editing technology, especially clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based tools, has greatly expedited many biomedical research areas, including cancer immunology and immunotherapy. In this review, the contribution of current CRISPR techniques to basic and translational cancer immunology research is discussed, and the future for cancer immunotherapy in the age of CRISPR is predicted.
