Co-stimulation through members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family appears to be critical for the generation of T cells with optimal effector-memory properties for adoptive cell therapy. Our work suggests that continuous 4-1BB/CD137 co-stimulation is required for the expansion of T cells with an optimal therapeutic profile and that the administration of 4-1BB agonists upon adoptive cell transfer further improves antitumor T-cell functions.
肿瘤坏死因子受体 (TNFR) 家族成员的共刺激似乎对于产生具有最佳效应记忆特性的 T 细胞用于过继细胞治疗至关重要。我们的工作表明，持续的 4-1BB/CD137 共刺激对于扩增具有最佳治疗谱的 T 细胞是必需的，并且在过继细胞转移时给予 4-1BB 激动剂进一步改善了抗肿瘤 T 细胞功能。
