NKG2D overexpression potentiates CAR-T cells through costimulation by tumor NKG2D ligands.
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has achieved remarkable success in hematologic malignancies, but durable efficacy remains limited by insufficient CAR-T cell persistence. Here, we show that activated CAR-T cells upregulate multiple NKG2D ligands (NKG2DLs), increasing their susceptibility to natural killer...
