Cellular-Based Therapies in Systemic Sclerosis: From Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant to Innovative Approaches

Abstract: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic disease characterized by autoimmune responses, vasculopathy and tissue fibrosis. The pathogenic mechanisms involve a wide range of cells and soluble factors. The complexity of interactions leads to heterogeneous clinical features in terms of the extent, severity, and rate of progression of skin fibrosis and internal organ involvement. Available disease-modifying drugs have only modest effects on halting disease progression and may be associated with significant side effec… Show more

“…The concept of CARs was first described over 25 years ago by Gross et al and has been improved upon over time [ 231 ]. Today, the technique is being studied in various autoimmune connective tissue conditions [ 232 ], holding promise for the potential treatment of SSc [ 233 ]. Furthermore, the use of CAR-T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in BCC resulted in partial tumor regression [ 234 ].…”

“…Despite high safety, polyclonal Tregs mediated suboptimal/controversial responses in clinical trials, 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 which was mainly attributed to low amount of disease relevant, antigen-specific cells ( Supplementary Table S2 ). 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 …”
