Abstract:
The roles of the pha-4 and daf-16 genes in diet-restricted induced longevity are described and characterized. Pha-4 acts, e.g., in the absence of daf-16, to increase lifespan, e.g., in nematodes. Given the role that pha-4 and daf-16 play in the mediation of longevity, they represent targets for modulation of life span. Methods of increasing life span and delaying age onset diseases by modulation of pha-4 activity are disclosed, as are screening methods for identifying compounds that modulate pha-4 and/or daf-16 activity. In addition, recombinant animals expressing the pha-4 gene and not the daf-16 gene, and methods of using the pha-4 and/or daf-16 genes to modulate longevity and age-onset diseases are described.

Abstract:
Provided herein are CD70-binding proteins comprising a CD70-binding domain and a transmembrane domain, engineered immune cells comprising the CD70-binding proteins, and methods of making and using the same. Also provided herein are engineered immune cells e.g. CAR (chimeric antigen receptor) T cells for administration to patients to treat cancer (e.g., solid tumors and hematologic tumors) and other unwanted conditions. The cells are engineered to functionally express a first antigen binding molecule e.g. a CD70 CAR and a second antigen binding molecule e.g. a second CAR that binds a target molecule characteristic of the cancer or other disease or unwanted condition. The cells may be further engineered to reduce the functional expression level of one or more of TRAC, CD52 and CD70. Also provided are methods of making and using the engineered cells, compositions and kits comprising them, and methods of treating by administering them.

Abstract:
A reversibly gated effector polypeptide e.g. a chimeric antigen receptor (protease-activating CD45-gate CAR) comprising an extracellular CD45 recruiting domain, a protease-cleavable linker, and a polypeptide comprising an extracellular ligand binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain. Nucleic acids including vectors and expression vectors that encode the protease-activating CD45-gate CAR and cells including immune cells such as T cells that comprise and express the nucleic acids. Methods of treatment of various conditions including various forms of cancer comprising administering the cells including CAR T cell therapy. In some embodiments, the CD45 gate at least partially inhibits activation of the protease-activating CD45-gate CAR when the protease-activating CD45-gate CAR binds antigen. The inhibition is at least partially diminished, relieved and/or eliminated when the protease-activating CD45-gate CAR is exposed to a protease that can cleave the linker.

The disclosure provides CARs (CARs) that specifically bind to CD70. The disclosure further relates to engineered immune cells comprising such CARs, CAR-encoding nucleic acids, and methods of making such CARs, engineered immune cells, and nucleic acids. The disclosure further relates to therapeutic methods for use of these CARs and engineered immune cells comprising these CARs for the treatment of a condition associated with malignant cells expressing CD70 (e.g., cancer).

Provided here are engineered immune cells that comprise a constitutively active chimeric cytokine receptor (CACCR) and a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Also provided herein are engineered immune cells that comprise one or more nucleic acids e.g. a bicistronic vector such as a viral vector that encode the CACCRs and BCMA CARs and engineered immune cells e.g. engineered autologous or allogeneic T cells that express both CACCRs and BCMA CARs from the nucleic acids. When present on chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-bearing engineered immune cells, the CACCRs allow for increased immune cell activation, proliferation, persistence, and/or potency. Further provided herein are methods of making and using the engineered immune cells described herein, such as methods of treating a disease or condition by administering at least one appropriate dose of the cells to a patient suffering from the condition.

Abstract:
Provided herein are chimeric cytokine receptors bearing a binding domain capable of binding a TGF-β ligand or a TGF-β receptor antibody. When present on chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-bearing immune cells (CAR-T-cells), such receptors allow for increased CAR-T cell expansion, activity and persistence, constitutively and/or through engagement of a TGF-β ligand or a TGF-β receptor antibody. Also provided are methods of making and using the chimeric cytokine receptors described herein.
Provided herein are constitutively active chimeric cytokine receptors (CACCRs). When present on chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-bearing immune cells, such CACCRs allow for increased immune cell activation, proliferation, persistence, and/or potency.
