ABSTRACT
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for malignant tumors has reached a crucial stage, with recent studies underscoring the role of T-cell exhaustion in determining the efficacy of CAR-T therapy. This trailblazing discovery has opened new avenues to augment the potency of CAR-T therapy. Basic leucine zipper ATF-like transcription factor (BATF) is indispensable in alleviating T-cell exhaustion and is pivotal in the early stages of CD8+ T-cell differentiation. In cooperation with other transcription factors, it plays a key role in the differentiation and maturation processes of exhausted T cells. A deeper comprehension of BATF's mechanisms in T-cell biology may yield novel insights into amplifying the efficacy of CAR-T therapy.
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, a treatment that boosts the body's immune system to fight cancer, has made significant progress. Recent research has shown that T-cell exhaustion, which is when the body's immune cells become less effective, affects how well this therapy works. This finding has opened new possibilities to make CAR-T therapy more effective. There is a specific protein called BATF that plays an important role in reducing T-cell exhaustion and influencing the early development of certain immune cells. This review describes how BATF interacts with exhausted T cells, to improve CAR-T therapy. By understanding how BATF works in the immune system, new ways to enhance CAR-T therapy and its ability to fight cancer may be found.
