Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting CD19 antigen have produced remarkable clinical outcomes for cancer patients. However, identifying measures to enhance effector function remains one of the most challenging issues in CD19-targeted immunotherapy. Here, we report a novel approach in which a microRNA (miRNA) or short-hairpin RNA (shRNA) cassette was integrated into CAR-expressing retroviral vectors. Using this system, we generated anti-CD19 CAR-T cells co-expressing miR155 or LSD1 shRNA and found that anti-CD19 CAR-T cells with miR155 upregulation or LSD1 downregulation exhibited increased anti-tumor functions in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptional profiling analysis by RNA sequencing revealed the targets of miR155 and LSD1 in anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. Our experiments indicated that introduction of miRNA or shRNA expression into anti-CD19 CAR T-cells might be an effective strategy to improve the anti-tumor effects of CAR-T cell therapy. |
