Decoupling T Cell Cytotoxicity: A CCL21+ICAM1-Based Synthetic Immune Niche Enhances Tumor Elimination by Accelerating Lytic Hit Delivery

Manish Kumar Gupta, Rawan Zoabi, Sofi Yado, Jörn Starruß, Benjamin Geiger, Haralampos Hatzikirou

This study identifies that a synthetic immune niche enhances T cell cytotoxicity by accelerating lytic hit delivery, not by increasing target encounters or conjugate stability.

A Lymphomimetic Synthetic Immune Niche, Consisting of CCL21 and ICAM1, Accelerates the Expansion of Potent CAR T-cells

Karin Brezinger-Dayan, Sofi Yado, Rawan Zoabi, Benjamin Geiger, Michal Judith Besser

This paper shows that a synthetic immune niche with CCL21 and ICAM1 boosts CAR T-cell expansion and potency, increasing cell yield and CAR T-cell frequency.

Differential effects of immobilized CCL21 and ICAM1 on TILs with distinct expansion properties

Sofi Yado, Rawan Zoabi, Karin Brezinger-Dayan, Shira Albeck, Tamar Unger, Moran Meiron, Galit Eisenberg, Alessio David Nahmad, Aya Tzur Gilat, Michal Judith Besser, Benjamin Geiger

This study identifies markers distinguishing TIL expansion properties and develops SIN-based strategies to enhance expansion and activation of both low- and high-expanding TILs.
