摘要:
The present invention relates to an engineered immune cell defective for Suv39h1. Preferably, said engineered immune cell further comprises a genetically engineered antigen receptor that specifically binds a target antigen. The present invention also relates to a method for obtaining a genetically engineered immune cell comprising a step consisting in inhibiting the expression and/or activity of Suv39h1 in the immune cell; and further optionally comprising a step consisting in introducing in the said immune cell a genetically engineered antigen receptor that specifically binds to a target antigen. The invention also encompasses said engineered immune cell for their use in adoptive therapy, notably for the treatment of cancer.
