ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
CAR-T cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment of oncological diseases, and potential uses in autoimmune diseases have recently been described. The review aims to integrate the available data on treatment with CAR-T cells, emphasizing autoimmune diseases, to determine therapeutic advances and their possible future clinical applicability in autoimmunity. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A search was performed in PubMed with the keywords "Chimeric Antigen Receptor" and "CART cell". The documents of interest were selected, and a critical review of the information was carried out.RESULTS:
In the treatment of autoimmune diseases, in preclinical models, three different cellular strategies have been used, which include Chimeric antigen receptor T cells, Chimeric autoantibody receptor T cells, and Chimeric antigen receptor in regulatory T lymphocytes. All three types of therapy have been effective. The potential adverse effects within them, cytokine release syndrome, cellular toxicity and neurotoxicity must always be kept in mind.CONCLUSIONS:
Although information in humans is not yet available, preclinical models of CAR-T cells in the treatment of autoimmune diseases show promising results, so that in the future, they may become a useful and effective therapy in the treatment of these pathologies.Palavras-chave
