Provided is a cytokine combination for treating a tumor and/or preventing recurrence or metastasis of the tumor. The cytokine combination comprising at least three cytokines selected from the following groups: IL(interleukin)12 or a functional variant thereof, GMCSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor) or a functional variant thereof, FLT3L (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand) or a functional variant thereof, IL2 or a functional variant thereof, IL15 or a functional variant thereof, IL21 or a functional variant thereof, and IL7 or a functional variant thereof. Also provided is a nucleic acid molecule encoding the cytokine combination and a vector thereof, a cell, a pharmaceutical composition, and a application thereof for the manufacture of a drug for treating the tumor and/or preventing recurrence or metastasis of the tumor.

An exemplary combination drug includes (a1) an immunoresponsive cell expressing interleukine-7, CCL19, and a cell surface molecule that specifically recognizes a cancer antigen or (a2) one or more kinds of cells, one or more kinds of nucleic acid delivery vehicles, or a combination thereof, which cooperatively include a nucleic acid encoding interleukine-7 and a nucleic acid encoding CCL19; and (b) an immunosuppression inhibitor, and the drug is for use in treatment of a cancer in a subject. An exemplary immunoresponsive cell expresses interleukin-7, CCL19, an immunosuppression inhibiting polypeptide, and a cell surface molecule that specifically recognizes a cancer antigen.

Provided are NK-92 cells expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The CAR can comprise an intracellular domain of FcϵRIγ. Also described are methods for treating a patient having or suspected of having a disease that is treatable with NK-92 cells, such as cancer or a viral infection, comprising administering to the patient NK-92-CAR cells.

The present disclosure provides humanized antibodies, including antibodies comprising an ultralong CDR3 and uses thereof.

The present invention relates to compositions of recombinant polynucleic acid constructs comprising at least one nucleic acid sequence encoding an siRNA capable of binding to a target mRNA and at least one nucleic acid sequence encoding a gene of interest. Also disclosed herein is use of the compositions in treating a disease or a condition and in simultaneously modulating expression of two or more genes.

Provided methods of using FLT3L-Fc fusion proteins, including doses and dosing regimens and schedules for administering FLT3L-Fc fusion proteins to a subject in need thereof.

A novel cytokine-derived cell penetrating peptide and use thereof are provided. The cell penetrating peptide has the ability to effectively deliver a biologically active substance into phagocytes, particularly macrophages, both in vitro and in vivo. The cell penetrating peptide can deliver a biologically active substance into macrophages with high efficiency compared to TAT peptide and dNP2 peptide that are commercially available as cell penetrating peptides.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising (i) a first substance which is capable to stimulate T cells, (ii) a second substance which is capable to stimulate NK cells (natural killer cells), and (iii) lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and wherein the second substance is a double stranded nucleic acid, single stranded nucleic acid, unmethylated CpG oligodeoxynucleotide, TLR agonist except lipopolysaccharide (LPS), arabinoxylan (BioBran® MGN-3), an immunoglobulin, a murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV)-encoded protein, CCL5 (chemokine (C—C motif) ligand 5), a UL-16-binding protein (ULBP), CD48, CD70, CD155, CD112, Necl-1, B7-H6, ICAM-1, RAE-1 (retinoic acid early inducible 1), 1160, Mult1 and/or hemagglutinin, to a method for measuring, determining and/or detecting the status of cell-mediated immune responsiveness of a subject, to a kit comprising the composition according to the invention, to the use of the composition for measuring, determining and/or detecting of cell-mediated immunity (CMI) and/or for detecting, diagnosing, monitoring an immunosuppression condition in a subject.
