The advancement of induced pluripotent stem cell technology enables the generation of immune cell products like T and NK cells for ACT. However, the expression of inhibitory receptors, such as TIGIT, may limit the functionality of these immune effector cells. In this study, we generated a homozygous TIGIT gene knockout iPSC line to potentially prevent inhibitory signaling and exhaustion, thereby creating potent “off-the-shelf” immune cell products for cellular immunotherapy applications. This approach could offer a new frontier in the fight against solid tumors.Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyGeneration of a homozygous TIGIT gene knockout (TIGIT<sup>−/−</sup>) human iPSC line (MUSIi001-A-3) using CRISPR/Cas9 systemArticleSCOPUS10.1016/j.scr.2024.1036012-s2.0-8520759663118767753
