“…[1][2][3] Among the receptors, transmembrane receptors receive the specific ligands in the extracellular domain, undergo conformational changes, and activate downstream signaling ABBREVIATIONS: aiCAR, apoptosis-inducing CAR; CAR, chimeric antigen receptor; cfiCAR, cell fate-inducing CAR; DNP, dinitrophenol; FL, fluorescein; IL-3, interleukin-3; IRES, internal ribosomal entry site; JAK, Janus kinase; JNK, c-Jun N-terminal kinase; piCAR, proliferation-inducing CAR; RANK, receptor activator of nuclear factor κB; scFv, single-chain Fv; STAT, signal transducers and activators of transcription pathways to control cell fates. [4][5][6] Thus, transmembrane receptors play important roles in responding to extracellular signals to adapt cells to extracellular environmental changes through intracellular signal transduction.…”
