CIK cells transiently enhanced by mRNA modification to boost activity; retain MHC-unrestricted cytotoxicity via NKG2D with perforin/granzyme and Fas/FasL pathways; experimental arm.
mRNA-engineered cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells that transiently boost activation and cytotoxic function while retaining MHC-unrestricted killing via NKG2D recognition of stress ligands (e.g., MICA/B, ULBPs), mediating tumor cell death through perforin/granzyme release and Fas/FasL pathways.
CIK cells recognize MICA via NKG2D, triggering cytotoxic granule release (perforin/granzyme) and Fas/FasL-mediated apoptosis of target cells.
