Article Title: Engineering BiTE-inspired IPSC-exosomes to potentiate CAR-T cell therapy against lung cancer

doi: 10.1186/s12951-026-04242-3

Figure Lengend Snippet: BIEXO@IPA platform for enhanced CAR-T therapy in lung cancer. In this study, iPSCs were lentivirally transduced with anti-PD-1/MSLN scFv to generate iPSC lines expressing the engineered construct (BiPSC). BIEXOs were isolated and concentrated from BiPSC culture supernatant via ultracentrifugation, then loaded with IPA through electroporation to form BIEXO@IPA. This platform was nebulized into orthotopic lung cancer mouse models for targeted delivery. In the lung TME, BIEXO@IPA bridges endogenous PD-1 + CD8 + T/CAR-T cells to MSLN-expressing tumor cells while blocking PD-1/PD-L1 signaling and exerting antitumor effects via : (1) BIEXO reverses tumor cell malignancy; (2) IPA delivery enhances Tpex and effector T cells (Teff); (3) activated Teff-mediated cytotoxicity
