Description

Nucleic acid construct containing targeted Her-2CAR sequence and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of tumor immunotherapy, in particular to a nucleic acid construct containing a targeted Her-2CAR sequence and application thereof.
Background
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) immune cell therapy is one of the most promising current tumor immunotherapies. A fusion protein of a Single chain antibody (scFv) for recognizing a tumor-associated antigen and an immune cell activation sequence, namely a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR), is expressed on the surface of an immune cell by a foreign gene transfection technology, so that the scFv capable of specifically recognizing the tumor-associated antigen is coupled with an activation proliferation signal domain in the immune cell through a transmembrane region. CAR-expressing immune cells (e.g., T cells, NK cells) bind tumor antigens in an antigen-dependent, but not MHC-restricted manner, initiating and activating a specific killing tumor response.
After the CAR is combined with tumor-associated antigens on tumor cells, an activation signal is provided for immunity to cause immune cell activation, which is expressed by CARs-dependent killing, proliferation and cytokine release, so that the CAR plays a role in killing the tumor cells. These effector functions can be used to design synthetic novel CARs such as CARs comprising multiple chimeric activation regions, such as generations 1, 2, and 3 CARs with 1, 2, or 3 signaling motifs within the cell. Early CARs were designed to be relatively simple, with only one intracellular signaling region, also known as CAR generation 1, signaling mainly mediated through the immunoreceptor tyrosine kinase activation motif (ITAM) on CD3 ζ, with only 3 ITAMs compared to CD3 molecule and lacking the 2 nd signal of costimulatory molecule transduction, so that CARs generation 1 had only weak antitumor effect, and T cells hardly proliferated after binding tumor antigen due to lack of the 2 nd signal of T cell proliferation, thus having poor effect in clinical application; the 2 generation CARs is to add an intracellular signal region on the basis of the 1 generation, and the signal region provides costimulatory signals (such as CD28 and CD 137); the 3 rd generation CARs add two co-stimulatory signal regions in series within the cell. In addition, there have been 4 th generation CARs (also known as TRUCKs) in recent years, which use vectors encoding CARs and/or CAR-responsive promoters to construct CARs, and which generate potent signals under the action of transgenically produced cytokines that recruit other components of the immune system to amplify the anti-tumor immune effect.
Unlike CAR-T cells, CAR-NK cells retain the intrinsic ability to recognize and target tumor cells through their natural receptors, so that the likelihood that tumor cells can escape killing is reduced when treated by CAR targeting. Second, CAR-NK cell therapy, in multiple clinical trials, showed no immune rejection within days to weeks. Thus, CAR-NK cell therapy does not exhibit similar safety issues, such as the absence of the trouble of cytokine release syndrome, as compared to many clinical trials of CAR-T cell therapy. Finally, NK cells do not require strict HLA matching and therefore do not cause graft versus host disease, which is a great advantage of CAR-NK cell therapy and also a significant risk for CAR-T cell immunotherapy.
HER2(Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) belongs to the epidermal growth factor receptor family and is a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity. Studies have shown that HER2 gene overexpression is present in patients with approximately third-generation breast cancer. In these patients, the malignancy is high, the drug resistance is high, the recurrence and metastasis rate is high, and the disease-free survival of the patients is inversely proportional to the overall survival and the expression of the HER2 gene. During the pathological process of breast cancer, the change of the expression level of HER2 plays a crucial role, so HER2 becomes an important target for scientists to develop a breast cancer treatment drug.
Disclosure of Invention
Based on the background technology, the invention aims to provide a nucleic acid construct containing a targeted Her-2CAR sequence and application thereof, wherein the nucleic acid construct can be used for specifically recognizing tumor cells expressing high expression of Her2, activating immune cells and enabling the immune cells to release cytokines such as IFN-gamma and the like to kill the tumor cells.
Specifically, the present invention is directed to solving the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and the present invention specifically provides a nucleic acid construct comprising a targeted Her-2CAR sequence, wherein the nucleic acid construct is composed of a tumor-associated antigen binding region, an extracellular hinge region, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular signaling domain connected in series.
Preferably, the nucleic acid construct further comprises a Signal peptide Sequence (SP), which is a short (5-30 amino acids in length) peptide chain responsible for directing the newly synthesized protein to different membrane structure-containing subcellular organelles of the cell, typically at the N-terminus of the protein. The signal peptide may be selected from the group of signal peptides commonly used for recombinant proteins such as Human IgKVIII, Mouse Ig Kappa, Human IL-2, Human insulin and the like, and it is preferred according to the present invention to provide a CD8a signal peptide comprising a nucleic acid construct targeting Her-2CAR sequences, the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of which are shown in SEQ ID No.1 and SEQ ID No.2, respectively.
Preferably, the antigen binding region is capable of tightly binding to a tumor associated antigen expressed on the surface of a tumor cell, determines targeting of the CAR structure, and is the core structure that determines the effect of the modified immune cell. Currently, the extracellular antigen-binding domain of most chimeric antigen receptors is derived from single chain antibodies (scFv) formed by the connection of light (VL) and heavy (VH) chains of monoclonal antibodies targeting specific antigens of interest, and a flexible hinge (linker) in the middle. The heavy or light chain of a single-chain antibody is connected to a signal peptide and a hinge region, respectively. The nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of the Her-2 targeting single chain antibody (FRP5) scFv (VH-linker-VL) of the Her-2 targeting nucleic acid construct containing the Her-2CAR sequence according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention are shown in SEQ ID NO.3 and SEQ ID NO.4, respectively.
Preferably, the hinge region connecting the extracellular antigen-binding region and the transmembrane domain, the hinge region of most CARs is derived from the IgG hinge or the CD8 a/CD 28 extracellular region. The length of the hinge region depends on the location of the epitope on the target cell and the degree of exposure. Several studies have shown that CAR-T cell activation is related to hinge region length. Adjusting the length of the hinge region allows the CAR-T cell to be at an optimal distance from the target cell, avoiding the effects of large phosphatases to attenuate CAR signals during antigen-antibody binding. However, in some cases, the epitope may be relatively inaccessible and a longer hinge region may be required so that the scFv can overcome steric hindrance and effectively bind the antigen. Thus, the epitopes of the antigen are different and the optimal length of the hinge region is also different, and when targeting a neo-antigen, the length of the hinge region may need to be adjusted accordingly. The extracellular hinge region may be a hinge region sequence from CD8, CD28, CTLA4, PD-1, NKG2D, etc., or IgG1, IgG4 (with or without the CH2CH3 region). According to various preferred embodiments of the present invention there is provided CD8 Hinge (CD 8H), CD28 Hinge (CD 28H), and IgG4 Hinge-CH2-CH3 comprising nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences, the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of which are set forth in SEQ ID nos. 5 and 6, 7 and 8, and 9 and 10, respectively.
Preferably, the transmembrane domain connects the extracellular domain of the CAR with the intracellular signaling domain and anchors the receptor to the immune cell membrane. Transmembrane domain (TMD) may be derived from the nucleic acid, polypeptide sequence of the following protein transmembrane domains: the α, β or ζ chain of a T cell receptor, CD28, CD3 ∈, CD45, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD9, CD16, CD22, CD33, CD37, CD64, CD80, CD86, CD134, CD137, CD154, DAP10, DAP12, NKG2A, NKG2D, PD-1, CTLA. For example, the CD3 zeta transmembrane domain enables the CAR to form a homodimer or heterodimer with an endogenous TCR, enhancing CAR-T cell activity, but is also being phased out as it does not require binding to endogenous TCRs to highly activate T cells. The transmembrane domains of CD8a and CD28 are currently employed in most clinical trials due to their ability to promote CAR expression on the cell surface. CD8, CD28, and NKG2D fransmembrane domain containing nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention have nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences as set forth in SEQ ID NO.11 and SEQ ID NO.12, SEQ ID NO.13 and SEQ ID NO.14, and SEQ ID NO.15 and SEQ ID NO.16, respectively.
Preferably, the intracellular signaling Domain comprises or does not comprise a Costimulatory Domain (CD), the Costimulatory Domain. The co-stimulatory domain is typically from the CD28 receptor family (CD28, ICOS) or the tumor necrosis factor receptor family (4-1BB, OX40, CD 27). The co-stimulation domain can realize the dual activation of the co-stimulation molecules and signals in cells, so that the T cells can continuously proliferate and release cytokines, and the anti-tumor capacity of the T cells is improved. For example, the CD28 co-stimulatory domain makes the CAR-T cell dependent on glycolysis metabolism, causing the CAR-T cell to differentiate towards effector T cells. While the 4-1BB co-stimulatory domain promotes mitochondrial generation, enhances respiration and fatty acid oxidation, and after antigen stimulation, CAR-T cells preferentially differentiate into central memory T cells. The co-stimulatory domain may be derived from one or more of the following different combinations of nucleic acid, polypeptide sequences of intracellular functional signaling junction domains of proteins: OX40, CD27, CD28, CDS, ICAM-1, LFA-1(CD11a/CD18), ICOS (CD278), DAP10, DAP12, 4-1BB (CD137) and 2B4 or functional variants thereof. CD137 Costimmulation Domain, CD28 Costimmulation Domain, DAP10 Costimmulation Domain, and 2B4 Costimmulation Domain containing nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention have the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.17 and SEQ ID NO.18, SEQ ID NO.19 and SEQ ID NO.20, SEQ ID NO.21 and SEQ ID NO.22, and SEQ ID NO.23 and SEQ ID NO.24, respectively.
Preferably, the signal transduction Domain (SD) is typically a T cell receptor TCR/CD3 zeta chain or an immunoglobulin Fc receptor fcepsilon RI gamma chain, containing an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAMs). Plays a cell signal transduction function. According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a CD3 ζ Signaling Domain comprising a nucleic acid construct targeting a Her-2CAR sequence, the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of which are set forth in SEQ ID No.25 and SEQ ID No.26, respectively.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a plurality of preferred sequence combinations of nucleic acid constructs comprising a targeted Her-2CAR sequence, each combination being as follows, with specific nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences as described above:
a)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD8 TMD-CD137 CD-CD3ζSD;
b)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD28 TMD-CD28 CD-CD3ζSD;
c)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD28 TMD-CD28 CD-CD137 CD-CD3ζSD;
d)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD28 TMD-CD28 CD-DAP10 CD-CD3ζSD;
e)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-NKG2D TMD-2B4 CD-CD3ζSD;
f)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-NKG2D TMD-2B4 CD-DAP10 CD-CD3ζSD;
g)CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-NKG2D TMD-CD137 CD-2B4 CD-CD3ζSD。
it is another object of the invention that the immune effector cells used for CAR introduction can be T cells, NK cells or macrophages and their origin can be autologous, allogeneic, stem cell differentiation or specific cell lines when using the nucleic acid constructs containing targeted Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the invention. Preferably, the immune cells are selected from NK cells, but the invention is not limited thereto. The extracellular antigen binding region is derived from a monoclonal antibody targeting a specific target antigen, and thus can be transfected into immune cells (e.g., T cells, NK cells) for tumor immunotherapy to assist the patient in eliminating or reducing tumor cells in vivo.
When the immune effector cells used for CAR introduction are NK cells, the CAR-NK cells retain the intrinsic ability to recognize and target tumor cells through their natural receptors, such that upon CAR-targeted therapy, the likelihood that tumor cells can escape killing is reduced, and CAR-NK cell therapy, in multiple clinical trials, shows no immune rejection within days to weeks, is safer than CAR-T cell therapy, e.g., without the trouble of cytokine release syndrome, while NK cells do not require strict HLA matching, and therefore do not cause graft-versus-host disease.
It is another object of the invention to provide a nucleic acid construct comprising a Her-2 targeting CAR sequence, the transmembrane domain of which can be derived from CD8a and CD28, thereby enabling the expression of the CAR on the cell surface.
Another objective of the invention is to provide a nucleic acid construct containing a Her-2CAR targeting sequence, wherein the signal transduction domain is T cell receptor TCR/CD3 zeta chain or immunoglobulin Fc receptor FceRI gamma chain, and the nucleic acid construct contains immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) for exerting cell signal transduction function.
It is another object of the invention to provide a nucleic acid construct containing a targeted Her-2CAR sequence that can be adapted for lentiviral (Lentivirus) vector transfection with near 100% transduction efficiency, greater transgene load, and less genotoxic.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a nucleic acid construct containing a targeted Her-2CAR sequence, which is suitable for transfection of lentiviral vectors, thereby differentiating common retroviral vectors, which has an infectious capacity for both dividing and non-dividing cells, and can effectively integrate foreign genes into host chromosomes, thereby achieving persistent expression, and in addition, can effectively infect various types of cells such as neuronal cells, hepatocytes, cardiomyocytes, tumor cells, endothelial cells, stem cells, and the like in terms of infectious capacity, thereby achieving a good gene therapy effect, and having a broad application prospect.
It is another object of the invention to provide a nucleic acid construct containing a targeted Her-2CAR sequence that can be adapted for lentiviral vector transfection, allowing the escape of Rev-assisted unspliced viral mRNA in conjunction with the use of an HIV-1 Rev Response Element (RRE); the 3' terminal truncated LTR removes the U3 region, eliminates the possibility of self-replication of the lentiviral vector and greatly improves the safety; promoters that drive expression of downstream CAR structural genes, such as the human own ubiquitin C promoter, EF1a promoter, EFs promoter, etc.; and cPPT and WPRE elements, to improve transduction efficiency and transgene expression efficiency.
It is another object of the present invention to provide lentiviral vectors, which require an envelope plasmid (envelope plasmid) and a packaging plasmid (packaging plasmid), in addition to a shuttle plasmid (transfer plasmid), for the preparation of nucleic acid constructs containing targeted Her-2CAR sequences, and packaging methods thereof. For the Envelope plasmid, VSV-G is usually chosen because lentiviruses containing this Envelope protein can infect a variety of hosts. However, resting T, B, NK and hematopoietic stem cells hardly express LDLR gene, so they are very difficult to infect VSV-G enveloped lentiviruses, and Baboon enveloped pseudotyped viral vectors with Baboon as the envelope are reported in literature to significantly improve the transduction efficiency of NK cells.
The transfer plasmid takes pCDH-UBC-DSRED-LUC-EF1 Hygro (addendum #129437) as an initial vector, and an EFS-containing promoter is constructed, wherein the EFS-containing promoter is used for starting a lentiviral vector for expressing a foreign gene. The reason is because the EFS promoter has a shorter sequence and has a higher transduction efficiency for primary NK cells.
The transfer plasmid contains the prokaryotic replicon pUC Ori sequence for plasmid replication; the ampR sequence of the ampicillin-containing resistance gene is used for the mass amplification of a target strain; a viral replicon SV40Ori sequence for enhancing replication in eukaryotic cells; elements for lentiviral packaging include: an RSV promoter for initiating transcription of lentiviral mRNA; lentivirus 5 terminal truncated LTR, 3 terminal truncated LTR, RRE cis element, env cis element, cPPT cis element; an EFS promoter for eukaryotic transcription of a target gene, a downstream TurboRFP and ZsGreen1 fluorescent protein sequence thereof, a T2A 'self-shearing' peptide sequence for connecting the co-transcription expression fluorescent protein and a WPRE enhanced woodchuck hepatitis B virus post-transcriptional regulatory element for enhancing the expression efficiency of transgenosis.
The method for constructing the transfer plasmid comprises the following steps:
1) constructing a vector containing EFS-TurboRFP-T2A-ZsGreen1, ClaI enzyme and KpnI enzyme sites, wherein the nucleic acid sequence of the EFS-TurboRFP-T2A-ZsGreen1 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 27;
2) the pCDH-UBC-DSRED-LUC-EF1 Hygro vector (addendum #129437) is cut by ClaI enzyme and KpnI enzyme, and the linearized vector fragment is recovered;
3) the vector containing the EFS-TurboRFP-T2A-ZsGreen1 fragment is digested by ClaI enzyme and KpnI enzyme, and the digested fragment is recovered.
4) The recovered products of 2) and 3) are connected, transformed and identified to obtain the plenti-EFS-TurboRFP-T2A-Zsgreen vector.
The preparation method of the transfer plasmid containing the targeted Her-2CAR sequence comprises the following steps:
1) constructing a Her-2 CAR-targeting nucleic acid construct, preferably the Her-2 CAR-targeting nucleic acid construct having a nucleic acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID No. 29;
2) utilizing Xbal enzyme + XhoI enzyme to carry out enzyme digestion on the plenti-EFS-TurboRFP-T2A-Zsgreen carrier, and recovering a linearized carrier fragment;
3) digesting the vector containing the nucleic acid construct containing the targeted Her-2CAR with the Xbal + XhoI enzyme and recovering the fragment;

Detailed Description
The following description is presented to disclose the invention so as to enable any person skilled in the art to practice the invention. The preferred embodiments in the following description are given by way of example only, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the invention, as defined in the following description, may be applied to other embodiments, variations, modifications, equivalents, and other technical solutions without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Example 1 nucleic acid constructs containing Targeted Her-2CAR sequences
The targeted Her-2CAR provided by the invention is composed of a tumor associated antigen binding region, an extracellular hinge region, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular signaling domain with or without a costimulatory domain, which are sequentially connected in series.
Wherein the signal peptide can be selected from the group consisting of signal peptides commonly used for recombinant proteins such as Human IgKVIII, Mouse Ig Kappa, Human IL-2, Human insulin and the like, and preferably according to the present invention is CD8a signal peptide of the provided nucleic acid construct comprising a targeted Her-2CAR sequence, the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of which are shown in SEQ ID No.1 and SEQ ID No.2, respectively;
secondly, the antigen binding region can be tightly combined with tumor-associated antigens expressed on the surface of tumor cells, determines the targeting property of the CAR structure, and is a core structure for determining the effect of modified immune cells. Currently, the extracellular antigen-binding domain of most chimeric antigen receptors is derived from single chain antibodies (scFv) formed by the connection of light (VL) and heavy (VH) chains of monoclonal antibodies targeting specific antigens of interest, and a flexible hinge (linker) in the middle. The heavy or light chain of a single-chain antibody is connected to a signal peptide and a hinge region, respectively. The nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of Her-2-targeting single-chain antibody (FRP5) scFv (VH-linker-VL) of the Her-2-targeting nucleic acid construct provided according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention containing the Her-2CAR sequence are shown in SEQ ID NO.3 and SEQ ID NO.4, respectively;
as regards the hinge region connecting the extracellular antigen-binding region and the transmembrane domain, most CAR's hinge region is derived from the IgG hinge or the extracellular region of CD8 α/CD 28. The length of the hinge region depends on the location of the epitope on the target cell and the degree of exposure. Several studies have shown that CAR-T cell activation is related to hinge region length. Adjusting the length of the hinge region allows the CAR-T cell to be at an optimal distance from the target cell, avoiding the effects of large phosphatases to attenuate CAR signals during antigen-antibody binding. However, in some cases, the epitope may be relatively inaccessible and a longer hinge region may be required so that the scFv can overcome steric hindrance and effectively bind the antigen. Thus, the epitopes of the antigen are different and the optimal length of the hinge region is also different, and when targeting a neo-antigen, the length of the hinge region may need to be adjusted accordingly. The extracellular hinge region may be a hinge region sequence from CD8, CD28, CTLA4, PD-1, NKG2D, etc., or IgG1, IgG4 (with or without the CH2CH3 region). CD8 Hinge, CD28 Hinge, and IgG4 Hinge-CH2-CH3 containing nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention have nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences as set forth in SEQ ID No.5 and SEQ ID No.6, SEQ ID No.7 and SEQ ID No.8, and SEQ ID No.9 and SEQ ID No.10, respectively;
furthermore, the transmembrane domain connects the extracellular domain of the CAR with the intracellular signaling domain and anchors the receptor to the immune cell membrane. The transmembrane domain may be derived from the nucleic acid, polypeptide sequence of the transmembrane domains of the following proteins: the α, β or ζ chain of a T cell receptor, CD28, CD3 ∈, CD45, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD9, CD16, CD22, CD33, CD37, CD64, CD80, CD86, CD134, CD137, CD154, DAP10, DAP12, NKG2A, NKG2D, PD-1, CTLA. For example, the CD3 zeta transmembrane domain enables the CAR to form a homodimer or heterodimer with an endogenous TCR, enhancing CAR-T cell activity, but is also being phased out as it does not require binding to endogenous TCRs to highly activate T cells. The transmembrane domains of CD8a and CD28 are currently employed in most clinical trials due to their ability to promote CAR expression on the cell surface. CD8, CD28, and NKG2D fransmembrane domain containing nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention have nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences as set forth in SEQ ID NO.11 and SEQ ID NO.12, SEQ ID NO.13 and SEQ ID NO.14, and SEQ ID NO.15 and SEQ ID NO.16, respectively;
in addition, the co-stimulatory domain is typically from the CD28 receptor family (CD28, ICOS) or the tumor necrosis factor receptor family (4-1BB, OX40, CD 27). The co-stimulation domain can realize the dual activation of the co-stimulation molecules and signals in cells, so that the T cells can continuously proliferate and release cytokines, and the anti-tumor capacity of the T cells is improved. For example, the CD28 co-stimulatory domain makes the CAR-T cell dependent on glycolysis metabolism, causing the CAR-T cell to differentiate towards effector T cells. While the 4-1BB co-stimulatory domain promotes mitochondrial generation, enhances respiration and fatty acid oxidation, and after antigen stimulation, CAR-T cells preferentially differentiate into central memory T cells.
The co-stimulatory domain may be derived from one or more of the following different combinations of nucleic acid, polypeptide sequences of intracellular functional signaling junction domains of proteins: OX40, CD27, CD28, CDS, ICAM-1, LFA-1(CD11a/CD18), ICOS (CD278), DAP10, DAP12, 4-1BB (CD137) and 2B4 or functional variants thereof. CD137 Costimmulation Domain, CD28 Costimmulation Domain, DAP10 Costimmulation Domain, and 2B4 Costimmulation Domain containing nucleic acid constructs targeting Her-2CAR sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention have the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.17 and SEQ ID NO.18, SEQ ID NO.19 and SEQ ID NO.20, SEQ ID NO.21 and SEQ ID NO.22, and SEQ ID NO.23 and SEQ ID NO.24, respectively;
finally, the signal transduction domain is typically a T cell receptor TCR/CD3 zeta chain or an immunoglobulin Fc receptor fcepsilon RI gamma chain, containing an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAMs). Plays a cell signal transduction function. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a CD3 ζ Signaling Domain comprising a nucleic acid construct targeting a Her-2CAR sequence, the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of which are set forth in SEQ ID No.25 and SEQ ID No.26, respectively:
preferably, based on the above sequences, the combination of sequences of the nucleic acid constructs comprising the Her-2 CAR-targeting sequences provided according to various preferred embodiments of the invention are as follows, with specific nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences as described above:
CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD8 TMD-CD137 CD-CD3ζSD;
CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-CD28 TMD-CD28 CD-CD3ζSD;

CD8 SP-Her-2 scFv(FRP5)-CD8 H-NKG2D TMD-CD137 CD-2B4 CD-CD3ζSD。

Preferably, the immune cells are selected from NK cells, but the invention is not limited thereto.
