摘要
The adoptive transfer of engineered T cells for the treatment of cancer, autoimmunity, and infectious disease is a rapidly growing field that has shown great promise. Gene editing holds tremendous potential for further improvements of T cell therapy. Here we review the applications of gene editing in various T cell therapies, focusing on antiviral strategies and cancer immunotherapies, and discuss the challenges and future prospects.
