CAR T-cell therapy is a promising approach for cancer treatment, utilizing a patient's own T-cells (autologous cell) or T-cells from a healthy donor (allogeneic cell) to target and destroy cancer cells. Over the last decade, significant advancements have been made in this field, including the development of novel CAR constructs, improved understanding of biology and mechanisms of action, and expanded clinical applications for treating a wider range of cancers. In this review, we provide an overview of the steps involved in the production of CAR T-cells and their mechanism of action.

Dysregulation of this process can give rise to various pathological manifestations, including cancer. Exploiting Golgi defects, cancer cells capitalise on aberrant membrane trafficking to facilitate signal transduction, proliferation, invasion, immune modulation, angiogenesis, and metastasis.
