摘要:
The present invention provides a method of inducing activation of a non-potent or insufficiently potent cell to convert the cell into a tissue-effector cell, thereby producing an activation-induced tissue-effector cell suitable for use in cell therapy - e.g., an activated specialized tissue-effector cell (ASTEC) suitable for cell therapy for a particular tissue type. The present invention further provides activation-induced tissue-effector cells produced thereby, as well as extracellular vesicles, e.g., exosomes, derived therefrom (e.g., ASTEX). The present invention further provides a method of improving the efficacy of a cell therapy by converting non-potent or insufficiently potent cells into activation-induced tissue-effector cells having increased potency suitable for cell therapy. The present invention further provides a method for treating a disease or condition amenable to cell therapy in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of activation-induced tissue-effector cells or extracellular vesicles derived therefrom.
