Abstract:Down-regulating the necessary component of immune system and suppressing pro-duction of immunosuppressive factors results in the tumor immune escape.Recently,the genetic modification of T cells with chimeric antigen receptors (CARs)was designed to solve the mechanism of escape immunosurveillance.The unique structure of CARs endows T cell tumor specific cytotoxici-ty and tumor antigen recognition ability.This adoptive antitumor immunotherapy develops rapidly and brings hope to the patients with tumors.
