Understanding Mechanisms of Response to CAR T-cell Therapy through Single-Cell Sequencing: Insights and Challenges

Abstract

Summary: Single-cell RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful technique to understand the molecular features of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells that associate with clinical outcomes. Here we discuss the common themes that have emerged from across single-cell studies of CAR T-cell therapy, and summarize the challenges in interpreting this complex data type.
