Structure of the Signal Transduction Domain in Second-Generation CAR Regulates the Input Efficiency of CAR Signals

T cells that are genetically engineered to express chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) have a strong potential to eliminate tumor cells, yet the CAR-T cells may also induce severe side effects due to an excessive immune response. Although optimization of the CAR structure is expected to improve the effi...
