Abstract
Preservation and transportation are essential for the clinical application of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells. This study aimed to optimize a cryopreservation solution for CAR-T cells and evaluate the antitumor efficiency of CAR-T cells using this optimized solution in vitro and in vivo. First, the stability of the cryopreservation solution for CAR-T infusion was detected by the L27 (37) orthogonal experiment. Subsequently, osmolality and pH were analyzed for the preservation reagent. Additionally, apoptosis and CAR expression of CAR-T cells were measured by flow cytometry, and the cytotoxicity was determined by calcein-AM staining. The results showed that cryopreservation solutions used in this study demonstrated high chemical stability, which induced only 2% CAR-T cells apoptosis in optimal solutions, which were slightly lower than other commercial solutions. Moreover, the CAR expression was not significantly affected by preservation with these solutions. There were no significant differences in the cytotoxicity between fresh and thawed CAR-T cells cryopreserved in the cryopreservation solutions in vivo and in vitro. This study developed a new cryopreservation solution for CAR-T cells, and it was safe and also had negligible effects on the CAR-T cells antitumor activity.Keywords
