Transplantation of engineered B cells has demonstrated efficacy in HIV disease models. B cell engineering may also be utilized for the treatment of cancer. Recent studies have highlighted that B cell activity is associated with favorable clinical outcomes in oncology. In mice, polyclonal B cells have been shown to elicit anti-cancer responses. As a potential novel cell therapy, we demonstrate that engineering B cells to target a tumor-associated antigen enhances polyclonal anti-tumor responses. We observe that engineered B cells expressing an anti-HPV B cell receptor internalize the antigen, enabling subsequent activation of oncoantigen-specific T cells. Secreted antibodies from engineered B cells form immune complexes, which are taken up by antigen-presenting cells to further promote T cell activation. Engineered B cells hold promise as novel, multi-modal cell therapies and open new avenues in solid tumor targeting.
工程化B细胞移植已在HIV疾病模型中显示出疗效。B细胞工程也可用于癌症治疗。最近的研究强调,B细胞活性与肿瘤学中良好的临床结果相关。在小鼠中,多克隆B细胞已被证明能引发抗癌反应。作为一种潜在的新型细胞疗法,我们证明将B细胞工程化以靶向肿瘤相关抗原有助于增强多克隆抗肿瘤反应。我们观察到,表达抗HPV B细胞受体的工程化B细胞会内化抗原,从而激活癌抗原特异性T细胞。工程化B细胞分泌的抗体形成免疫复合物,被抗原呈递细胞摄取,进一步促进T细胞激活。工程化B细胞有望成为新型多模式细胞疗法,并为实体瘤靶向治疗开辟新途径。
