Project description:To understand the molecular determinants of B12(VHH)-CAR-T polyfunctionality, we simultaneously measured the protein and RNA expression levels of 95 single CD4+ B12(VHH)-CAR-T cells isolated from IMR5 tumor-bearing mouse and re-stimulated with IMR5 tumor cells in vitro. We identified two CAR-T clusters, low polyfunctionality and high polyfunctionality subsets, in a 2D t-SNE plot. Moreover, our single-cell mRNA expression profiling revealed 32 genes that displayed statistically significant, concordant differences between the two cell subsets.
Project description:Additive effects of TNF and IL-6 were evaluated in cell-based model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and then compared to treatment with anti-TNF/IL-6 NANOBODY® VHH, Humira and Sylvant by RNA-seq
