CD32B1, a versatile non-signaling antibody-binding scaffold for enhanced T cell adhesion to tumor stromal cognate antigens by Sara W. Feigelson, Tali Dadosh, Nehora Levi, Anita Sapoznikov, Hadas Weinstein-Marom, Hadas Weinstein-Marom, Dayana Blokon-Kogan, Dayana Blokon-Kogan, Yahel Avraham, Tamar Unger, Gideon Gross, Gideon Gross, Rony Dahan, Ronen Alon

“…The molecule, termed mSA2-CD8h-tILCD32B1, was also successfully expressed in T cells, readily and stably bound biotinylated IgG mAbs in vitro and once decorated with the biotin labeled mAbs, conferred the T cells with high adhesiveness to multiple surface-coated antigens. mSA2-CD8h-tILCD32B1 expressing human T cells decorated ex vivo with a biotin-labeled mAb retained the antibody for hours after accumulation inside breast tumors implanted in immunodeficient recipient mice. …”
