Provided herein are PD-1 chimeric cytokine receptors. When present on chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-bearing immune cells, such receptors allow for increased immune cell activation, proliferation, persistence, and/or potency, when engaged with PD-1 ligands or activation with an anti-PD-1 antibody. Also provided are methods of making and using the chimeric cytokine receptors described herein. |
