Chimeric antigen receptors for treatment of glioblastoma: a practical review of challenges and ways to overcome them.

abstract：:Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a potent immunosuppressive cytokine produced by many tumor cells. Secretion of TGF-beta by malignant cells may therefore be a mechanism by which tumor cells escape destruction by tumor-specific T lymphocytes. In order to evaluate the role of tumor-derived TGF-beta on tumor...
