A versatile CRISPR/Cas13d platform for multiplexed transcriptomic regulation and metabolic engineering in primary human T cells


ABSTRACT: CRISPR technologies have begun to revolutionize T cell therapies; however, conventional CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing tools are limited in their safety, efficacy, and scope. To address these challenges, we developed MEGA (Multiplexed Effector Guide Arrays), a platform for programmable and scalable regulation of the T cell transcriptome using the RNA-guided, RNA-targeting activity of CRISPR/Cas13d. MEGA enables quantitative, reversible, and massively-multiplexed gene knockdown in primary human T cells without targeting or cutting genomic DNA. Applying MEGA to a model of CAR T cell exhaustion, we robustly suppressed inhibitory receptor upregulation and uncovered paired regulators of T cell function through combinatorial CRISPR screening. We additionally implemented druggable regulation of MEGA to control CAR activation in a receptor-independent manner. Lastly, MEGA enabled multiplexed disruption of immunoregulatory metabolic pathways to enhance CAR T cell fitness and anti-tumor activity in vitro and in vivo. MEGA offers a versatile synthetic toolkit for applications in cancer immunotherapy and beyond.
