Embodiments relate to a modified T cell comprising an antigen binding molecule, wherein expression and/or function of CDC42 in the modified cell has been enhanced. In embodiments, the modified cell has an increased level of cytokine release in response to an antigen that the antigen binding molecule binds as compared to a corresponding T cell that does not overexpress CDC42. In embodiments, the cytokine release comprises a cytokine release of IFNγ. In embodiments, the modified cell has an enhanced migration capability in response to a chemokine as compared to a corresponding T cell that does not overexpress CDC42.
