Our technical process, by directly activating endogenous genes using the CRISPRa system, induces a potent anti-tumor immune response, providing an innovative and efficient approach for the development of new cancer immunotherapy.
-
Target Identification: Firstly, through an in-depth analysis of the tumor genome, target genes are identified. These genes are anticipated to enhance anti-tumor immune responses when activated.
-
CRISPRa: Utilizing CRISPRa technology, precise CRISPRa guide RNAs are designed and synthesized to target and activate the identified genes. Ensuring the high specificity of CRISPRa is crucial to prevent unnecessary gene activation.
-
Gene Delivery and Transfection: The designed CRISPRa system that guides RNAs, along with the CRISPR activation protein, are introduced into target tumor cells using a suitable vector. This can be achieved through viral vectors, nanoparticles, or other appropriate delivery tools.
-
Intracellular Activation: Within the tumor cells, the CRISPRa system recognizes and activates the target genes, leading to a significant increase in their expression levels. This further triggers the production and presentation of tumor antigens.
-
Antigen Presentation and Immune Response: The highly expressed tumor antigens are effectively presented to the immune system, eliciting a robust anti-tumor immune response. Activated immune cells, particularly T cells, are guided to attack and eliminate tumor cells.
-
Effect Evaluation: Comprehensive assessment of the new immunotherapy approach's efficacy and safety is conducted by monitoring factors such as the activity of immune cells and tumor size in models.

The observations in this literature indicate that the combined effect of synergistic activation and multiplexing can be attained through the utilization of CRISPR RNA (crRNA) arrays. Moreover, our findings reveal that crRNAs expressed towards the 5' end of 6-crRNA arrays exhibit enhanced activity. This not only signifies a more adaptable instrument for transcriptional modulation but also broadens our comprehension of the design possibilities and constraints associated with longer crRNA arrays for achieving multiplexed targeting.
