Article Title: The CD28-Transmembrane Domain Mediates Chimeric Antigen Receptor Heterodimerization With CD28

doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.639818

Figure Lengend Snippet: Anti-CD28 stimulation of CD19-chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) T cells is TMD dependent. (A) Designs of five CAR against CD19 bearing a 4-1BB costimulatory domain and differing by their hinge domain (HD) and their transmembrane domain (TMD). (B) Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) -sorted CD4 + CD127 + CD25 low T cells were electroporated with a CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex (RNP) targeting the constant region of the TCR β chain gene (TRBC), followed by stimulation with anti-CD3/CD28 beads (1:1 ratio). (C) Representative results of flow cytometric analysis of the CD3 expression over time of cells electroporated with or without RNP. Percentages of residual CD3 + population and fold-expansion after 9 days of culture of CD4 + T cells electroporated with or without RNPs targeting TRBC are shown. Results from four independent experiments. (D) A representative example of carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) dilution of a mixed population of CD3 +/− CAR +/− T restimulated with anti-CD3/28 beads. (E) The normalized CFSE mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) ratio for CD3 − mCherry + , CD3 + mCherry − , and CD3 + mCherry + cells was calculated by dividing CFSE MFI of these populations with the MFI of the CD3 − mCherry − cells in the same culture. Two-way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis (bold line set as reference). (F) Percentages of CD3 + and mCherry + cells before and 5 days after restimulation of edited T cells with anti-CD3/CD28 beads. The Unpaired t -test was performed by comparing CD8-TMD and CD28-TMD-containing CARs on D14. For (E,F) , the results shown are a summary of two independent experiments using T cells from five unrelated donors for each construct. *** p < 0.001.

Article Snippet: For generating CD19 − variants of Raji cells, Raji cells (ATCC® CCL-86TM, Manassas, VA) were electroporated (pulse code EH140) with RNP targeting CD19 , and the CD19- negative fraction was purified by FACS after culturing the cells for more than 1 week.

Figure Lengend Snippet: CAR-CD28 heterodimers are B7-unresponsive. (A) A representative example showing CD71 upregulation in CAR T cells containing an IgG 4 -HD/CD28-TMD co-cultured for 48 h with irradiated (4,000 Rad) CD19-wild type or deficient Raji cells with or without CTLA-4 Ig. (B) CD25 + CD71 + T cells were analyzed in low, intermediate (int), or high mCherry-expressing CAR T cells using the gating strategy described in . Data were pooled from four independent experiments using T cells from four to five unrelated donors. The two-way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001.

Figure Lengend Snippet: CAR-CD28 heterodimers reduce CD28 expression. (A) Editing strategy and homology-directed repair-mediated integration into the TRAC locus of various CD19 CARs using an AAV-6 transduction protocol. (B) The expression of Myc and CD28 in a representative example was analyzed 6 days after editing and the removal of beads. (C) The CD28 MFI ratio was calculated by dividing CD28 MFI of Myc + cells by Myc − cells in the same culture. Pooled data from three to four independent experiments across five unrelated donors are shown. Each dot represents one independent editing condition. The two-way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis. *** p < 0.001.
