Abstract
Adoptive T cell therapy is an attractive strategy in tumor immunotherapy. The transfer of in vitro expanded tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-specific T cells from patients may effectively destroy the original tumor cells. One of the limitations is a rapid acquisition of tolerant (anergy, deletion, dysfunctional, and/or exhausted) phenotypes. We and others found that stem cell memory T (TSCM) cells are strongly resistant to tolerance, showing strong expansion and persistence in vivo and providing long-lasting antitumor effects. We previously established that phenotypically TSCM cells (iTSCM) can be induced using a simple coculture of activated T cells with OP9 stroma cells expressing a Notch ligand. Here, we describe a defined protocol for generating human iTSCM cells, including reagents, culture setting, and procedure.
