Construction of a chimeric antigen receptor CAR THP －1 cell line targeting HER2 / 安徽医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To obtain chimeric antigen receptor macrophages ( CAR-M) targeting HER2 stably transfected．@*Methods @#CAR lentivirus vector targeting HER2 was constructed and infected with human monocytic leukemia cell line (THP-1) ．CAR THP-1 cells with green fluorescent labeling were selected by sorting flow cytometry and continued to be cultured in vitro．The CAR THP-1 cells targeting HER2 were co-cultured with the endometrial cancer cell line Ishikawa with negative and positive HER2 expression，and their targeted phagocytosis of CAR-M to HER2 positive tumor cells was detected by imaging flow cytometry ，and the targeted phagocytosis efficiency of CAR-M to HER2 positive tumor cells was detected by flow cytometry. @*Results @#CAR lentivirus infection with THP- 1 cells was less efficient ; After co-culture with cancer cells，flow cytometry and imaging flow cytometry showed that CAR THP-1 cells had enhanced phagocytosis of HER2 positive Ishikawa cells compared with the empty body group (P＜0. 01) ．@*Conclusion @#In this experiment，CAR THP-1 cell line targeting HER2 was established by constructing CAR lentivirus vector and transfecting THP-1 cells ，and it was proved that CAR THP-1 could phagocytize HER2 positive Ishikawa cells through specific targeting.
