مستخلص: Introduction: Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, and Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cell therapy (CAR-T) is a groundbreaking approach. Traditional second-generation CAR-T therapies have achieved remarkable success in hematological malignancies, but there is still room for improvement, particularly in developing new targeting strategies. To address this limitation, engineering T cells with multi-target universal CARs (UniCARs) based on monomeric streptavidin has emerged as a versatile approach in the field of anti-tumor immunotherapy. However, no studies have been conducted on the importance of the intracellular signaling domains of such CARs and their impact on efficiency and specificity Method: Here, we developed second-generation and third-generation UniCARs based on an extracellular domain comprising an affinity-enhanced monomeric streptavidin, in addition to CD28 and 4-1BB co-stimulatory intracellular domains. These UniCAR structures rely on a biotinylated intermediary, such as an antibody, for recognizing target antigens. In co-culture assays, we performed a functional comparison between the third-generation UniCAR construct and two second-generation UniCAR variants, each incorporating either the CD28 or 4-1BB as costimulatory domain Results: We observed that components in culture media could inhibit the binding of biotinylated antibodies to monomeric streptavidin-CARs, potentially compromising their efficacy. Furthermore, third-generation UniCAR-T cells showed robust cytolytic activity against cancer cell lines upon exposure to specific biotinylated antibodies like anti-CD19 and anti-CD20, underscoring their capability for multi-targeting. Importantly, when assessing engineered UniCAR-T cell activation upon encountering their target cells, third-generation UniCAR-T cells exhibited significantly enhanced specificity compared to second-generation CAR-T cells Discussion: First, optimizing culture conditions would be essential before deploying UniCAR-T cells clinically. Moreover, we propose that third-generation UniCAR-T cells are excellent candidates for preclinical research due to their high specificity and multi-target anti-tumor cytotoxicity [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
