Targeting glycosylation of PD-1 to enhance CAR-T cell cytotoxicity

Abstract Asparagine-linked (N-linked) glycosylation is ubiquitous and can stabilize immune inhibitory PD-1 protein. Reducing N-linked glycosylation of PD-1 may decrease PD-1 expression and relieve its inhibitory effects on CAR-T cells. Considering that the codon of Asparagine is aac or aat, we wonde...
