GUCY2C (Guanylyl Cyclase C), also known as heat-stable enterotoxin receptor, is a type I transmembrane protein of the guanylate cyclase (gc) family. GUCY2C cell surface expression is confined to luminal surfaces of the intestinal epithelium and a subset of hypothalamic neurons. The inaccessibility of GUCY2C in the apical membranes of polarized epithelial tissue, due to subcellular restriction of GUCY2C, creates a therapeutic opportunity to target metastatic lesions of colorectal origin which have lost apicalbasolateral polarization without concomitant intestinal toxicity. And that CAR-T cells targeting murine GUCY2C were effective against colorectal cancer metastatic to lung in the absence of intestinal toxicities. Human GUCY2C-targeted CAR that could potentially be employed in patients with GUCY2C-expressing gastrointestinal malignancies.
