The present invention relates to an exosome for stimulating T cells and the pharmaceutical use thereof. Immune exosomes secreted from artificial antigen-presenting cells which express HLA, CD32, and co-stimulatory molecules CD32, CD80, CD83, and 4-1BBL are used to stimulate naive CD8+ T cells whereby preventive and therapeutic effects on tumors, pathogen infections, or autoimmune diseases can be provided.

Exosome for stimulating T cell and pharmaceutical use thereof

The present invention relates to a novel feeder cell and a method for growing gamma delta T cells using the same. More specifically, a large amount of gamma delta T cells may be grown in vitro with high purity and without simulation of a T cell receptor by using a feeder cell into which costimulatory molecules are introduced and a low concentration of IL-2, differentiation into central memory cells may be possible when stimulated, activity by the feeder cell, and cytolytic against tumour cells is provided.

Feeder cell and method for growing gamma delta T cells by using same

The present invention relates to an artificial antigen-presenting cell prepared from an HLA-null cell line by using a multiplex CRISPR-Cas9 system and the use thereof and, more particularly, to a novel artificial antigen-presenting cell which includes the ability to present antigens of HLA class I and a co-stimulatory molecule group transferred from an HLA-A, -B, -C null cell line generated using a multiplex CRISPR-Cas9 system and to stimulate T cells, an immunotherapeutic agent using the same, and the use thereof for treating tumors, pathogenic infections, and autoimmune diseases.
