     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention disclosed herein relates to a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizing B cell lymphoma cell and a use thereof. More specifically, the present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody; a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating B cell lymphoma, including the monoclonal antibody; a composition for diagnosing B cell lymphoma including the monoclonal antibody; a method for providing information for diagnosing B cell lymphoma using the monoclonal antibody; a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) protein including i) the antibody, ii) a transmembrane domain, and iii) an intracellular signaling domain; a recombinant vector which expresses the CAR protein; a CAR-modified T cell transformed with the recombinant vector; a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating B cell lymphoma including the CAR-modified T cell; and an antibody-drug conjugate in which the monoclonal antibody and a drug are conjugated. 
     B cell lymphoma consists of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). NHL is blood cancer which most frequently occurs in adults. NHL occurred in more than 66,000 people in the U.S. in 2008 and the annual occurrence rate is increased by 4%. Additionally, the occurrence of lymphoma is steadily increasing while those of some other cancers are decreasing. 
     Most of lymphoma/leukemia occurring from B cells expresses CD19 and CD20 on the cell surface, and therefore, based on this, a monoclonal antibody which recognizes CD20 has been developed as a therapeutic agent for treating B cell lymphoma/leukemia. Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies remove cancer through various mechanisms such as complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), and induction of apoptosis. The anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (rituximab), which was approved by USFDA as a treatment for B cell NHL in 1977, has been used since then as a standard therapeutic method for treating diffused large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and other B cell lymphoma/leukemia in such a manner that it was administered in combination with cyclophosphamide plus doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (CHOP). However, malignant B cells and rituximab, regardless of their high reactivity, have a low effect of complete cure of less than 10%. This phenomenon is because some of B cell lymphoma/leukemia cells reduce CD20 expression thereby evading the action of rituximab. Additionally, there is a limitation that normal B cells also express CD20 and thus normal B cells are also removed by rituximab. In this regard, those cancer patients administered with rituximab are removed of humoral immunities and thus there is a high possibility of occurrence of side effects such as occurrence of type B hepatitis, increase of viral infections, and multifocal leukoencephalopathy. Accordingly, there has been a demand for the development of a next generation monoclonal antibody which selectively binds to B cell lymphoma/leukemia cells. 
     Under these circumstances, the present inventors have eagerly endeavored to develop a monoclonal antibody which selectively recognizes only malignant B cells, resultantly, have produced a pool of hybridomas which react with B cell lymphoma, and subsequently have succeeded to develop a hybridoma and antibodies produced therefrom, wherein the hybridoma has an anticancer activity and does not recognize cancer cells other than normal B cells and B cell lymphoma but selectively recognizes B cell lymphoma when subjected to a few steps of screening through flow cytometry analysis. Additionally, the present inventors confirmed that the above antibody has excellent anticancer activity both in vitro and in vivo against B cell lymphoma, and that the antibody exhibits excellent anticancer activity when the antibody is used as a therapeutic agent for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells. Consequently, the present inventors confirmed that the antibody can be used in various forms of anticancer treatments such as an antibody-/anticancer-therapeutic agent containing the antibody as a major effect of ADCC mechanism, antibody therapeutic agent such as radioisotopes/anticancer agents/toxins, etc., which are in a form being bound to anticancer substances, and CAR-T cell treatment using scFv. Finally, the present inventors completed the present invention. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

     Still another object of the present invention is to provide a composition for diagnosing B cell lymphoma containing the monoclonal antibody. 
     Still another object of the present invention is to provide a method of providing information for diagnosing B cell lymphoma including: (a) treating, with the monoclonal antibody, a separated biological sample from a subject suspected of having B cell lymphoma; and (b) detecting the presence of B cell lymphoma cells from the sample in step (a). 
     Still another object of the present invention is to provide a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) protein, including: i) an antibody specific to B cell lymphoma; ii) a transmembrane domain; and iii) an intracellular signaling domain, which leads to T cell activation when an antigen binds to the antibody.

     Still another object of the present invention is to provide an antibody-drug conjugate wherein the monoclonal antibody and a drug are conjugated. 
     In an aspect to achieve the above objects, the present invention provides a monoclonal antibody specific to B cell lymphoma, including: a heavy chain variable region having a heavy chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 2; a heavy chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 3; and a heavy chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 4; and a light chain variable region having a light chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 6; a light chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 7; and a light chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 8. 
     The term “antibody” used herein refers to a protein molecule, which includes an immunoglobulin molecule having a reactivity with a specific antigen immunologically and acts as a receptor capable of specifically recognizing antigens. Examples of the antibody include all of polyclonal antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, full length antibodies and antibody fragments. Additionally, said term also refers to antibodies, humanized antibodies, bivalent or bispecific molecules (e.g., bispecific antibodies), diabodies, triabodies, and tetrabodies, but is not limited thereto. A full length refers to a structure having two full length light chains and two full length heavy chains, wherein each light chain is connected to a heavy chain by a disulfide bond. The full length antibody includes IgA, IgD, IgE, IgM and IgG, and IgG that includes as its subtypes IgG 1 , IgG 2 , IgG 3 , and IgG 4 . The antibody fragment refers to a fragment having a function capable of binding to antigens, and includes Fab, Fab′, F(ab′) 2 , Fv, etc. The Fab has a structure including variable regions of the light chain and the heavy chain, a constant region of the light chain, and a first constant region (CH1 domain) of the heavy chain, and has one antigen binding site. Fab′ differs from Fab in that Fab′ has a hinge region, which includes at least one cysteine residue at the C-terminus of the heavy chain CH1 domain. F(ab′) 2  antibody is produced as the cysteine residue in the hinge region of Fab′ forms a disulfide bond. A variable fragment (Fv) refers to a minimum fragment having only a heavy chain variable region and a light chain variable region. The double chain Fv (dsFv) is characterized in that the heavy chain Fv (dsFv) is connected to the heavy chain variable region by a disulfide bond, whereas a single chain Fv (scFv) is generally characterized in that the heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region are connected by a covalent bond through a peptide linker. The antibody fragment can be obtained using a protease (for example, Fab can be obtained by restriction digestion of full length antibodies with papain, and F(ab′) 2  fragment can be obtained by cutting with pepsin), and preferably, may be constructed via genetic recombinant technology. 
     The term “monoclonal antibody” used herein refers to an antibody molecule having a single molecular composition obtained from a substantially identical antibody population, and the monoclonal antibody indicates a single binding specificity and affinity to a particular epitope. 
     Typically, an immunoglobulin has a heavy chain and a light chain, and each of the heavy chain and the light chain includes a constant region and a variable region (the region is also known as domain). The variable regions of the light chain and the heavy chain include three hypervariable regions called complementarity-determining region (hereinafter, “CDR”) and four framework regions. The CDR mostly plays a role in binding to an epitope of an antigen. The CDR of each chain is typically called sequentially starting from the N-terminus CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, and is identified by a chain to which a particular CDR is located. 
     When mouse monoclonal antibodies are repeatedly injected into the human body, they cause immune responses in the body and are thus difficult to be used as a therapeutic agent. Accordingly, in order to use the antibody of the present invention as a therapeutic antibody, it is preferable that the antibody be used in the form of a chimeric antibody, and more preferably in the form of a humanized antibody. 
     The term “chimeric antibody” used herein refers to a recombinant antibody between the variable region of a mouse antibody and the constant region of human antibody, and it shows a significant improvement in immune responses compared with that of the mouse antibody. 
     The term “humanized antibody” used herein refers to an antibody where the protein sequence of an antibody derived from a species other than humans is modified to be similar to that of an antibody mutant naturally produced in humans. For example, the humanized antibody may be prepared by preparing a humanized variable region by recombination between a mouse derived CDR and an FR derived from human antibody, followed by recombination between the humanized variable region and the preferable constant region of the human antibody. However, a simple CDR grafting would deteriorate the affinity of the humanized antibody. The affinity of the humanized antibody may be improved to a level equal to that of the original mouse antibody by rendering affinity on a few important FR amino acid residues that may affect the 3-dimensional structure of CDR to that of the mouse antibody, but is not limited thereto. 
     The term “B cell lymphoma-specific monoclonal antibody” used herein refers to an antibody which specifically recognizes B cell lymphoma cells, and according to the purpose of the present invention, refers to a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizes a protein having a molecular weight of about 41 kDa located on the cell membrane of the B cell lymphoma cells, not normal B cells. 
     Preferably, the monoclonal antibody may be a monoclonal antibody including a heavy chain variable region having a heavy chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 2; a heavy chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 3; and a heavy chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 4; and a light chain variable region having a light chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 6; a light chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 7; and a light chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 8. More preferably, the monoclonal antibody may be a monoclonal antibody including an amino acid sequence of the heavy chain variable region described in SEQ ID NO: 1 and an amino acid sequence of the light chain variable region described in SEQ ID NO: 5, but is not limited thereto. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the monoclonal antibody including an amino acid sequence of the heavy chain variable region described in SEQ ID NO: 1 and an amino acid sequence of the light chain variable region described in SEQ ID NO: 5 was designated as an anti-MVR (malignancy variant receptor) antibody. 
     Herein, the form of the monoclonal antibody may include, as stated above, both the full length antibodies and antibody fragments, and may be in any form such as a mouse monoclonal antibody, a chimeric antibody, and a humanized antibody. 
     Additionally, when the monoclonal antibody includes the heavy chain constant region, it may include a heavy chain constant region selected from the group consisting of human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, IgE, IgM, and IgD, and preferably, a human IgG 1  constant region, but is not limited thereto. 
     Since the monoclonal antibody acts specifically upon B cell lymphoma by recognizing the proteins specifically present in B cell lymphoma, it may be used as an antibody for diagnosing and treating B cell lymphoma. 
     The term “B cell lymphoma” used herein refers to a malignant lymphoma of B cell origin. The lymphoma includes Hodgkin&#39;s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin&#39;s lymphoma. Additionally, B cell lymphoma includes diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma, mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue lymphoma (MALT), chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), burkitt lymphoma, mediastinal large B cell lymphoma, waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma (NMZL), splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL), intravascular large B-cell lymphoma, primary effusion lymphoma, lymphomatoid granulomatosis, and AIDS-related lymphoma, but is not particularly limited thereto as long as it is lymphoma of B cell origin. 
     In an embodiment of the present invention, a hybridoma pool was constructed by separating spleen cells from a Balb/c mouse subjected to repeated immune injections of B cell lymphoma cells of human origin, followed by fusion with SP2/0 myeloma cells, and after a few selection processes, those anti-MVR hybridomas which specifically reacted only with B cell lymphoma and showed high reactivity were selected from the hybridoma pool (Experimental Example 1). Additionally, it was confirmed that the anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies, which are produced by the above hybridoma, were specifically bound not only to B cell lymphoma cell lines but also to cancer cells of clinical cancer patients of B cell lymphoma/leukemia (Experimental Example 3). Also, a total antibody of chimeric anti-MVR (chiMVR mAb), where the variable region of the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody was conjugated to the constant region of human IgG 1 , was constructed, and it was confirmed that the antibody showed an antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in B cell lymphoma cells (Experimental Example 4 and 5). Additionally, when an immune-deficient RAG2 −/− c −/−  mouse was subcutaneously injected with LCL cancer cells on its back, intraperitoneally administered with the anti-MVR antibodies, and observed the lymph node metastasis, it was confirmed that the antibodies inhibited the lymph node metastasis of the LCL cells and selectively bound to the cancer cells (Experimental Example 6). The above results support that the monoclonal antibody of the present invention can specifically bind to B cell lymphoma and be used for diagnosis and treatment of B cell lymphoma.

     The term “introduction” used herein refers to a method for delivering a vector including the polynucleotide encoding the monoclonal antibody to a host cell. The introduction may be performed by various methods known in the art such as calcium phosphate-DNA co-precipitation, DEAE-dextran-mediated transfection, polybrene-mediated transfection, electroporation, microinjection, liposome fusion, lipofectamine, and protoplast fusion. Additionally, transduction refers to delivery of a target material inside a cell using a virus particle via infection.

     The monoclonal antibody and B cell lymphoma are the same as explained above. 
     The monoclonal antibody of the present invention does not act on different lymphomas or normal cells but it does only specifically recognize B cell lymphoma and thus exhibit anticancer activity on B cell lymphoma while minimizing its effect on normal cells and other kinds of cancer cells. Accordingly, the pharmaceutical composition can be effectively used for preventing or treating B cell lymphoma. 
     The term “prevention” used herein refers to all kinds of activities to inhibit or delay the occurrence of B cell lymphoma by the administration of the above composition, and the term “treatment” used herein refers to all kinds of activities to improve or advantageously change the symptoms of B cell lymphoma by the administration of the above composition. 
     The pharmaceutical composition may further contain a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 
     The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” used herein refers to a carrier or diluents which neither stimulate a bio-organism nor inhibit the biological activity and characteristics of a compound to be administered. As the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in the composition to be formulated into a liquid phase solution, saline, sterile water, ringer solution, buffered saline, albumin injection solution, dextrose solution, malto dextrin solution, glycerol, ethanol, or a combination of at least one component thereof may be used, and other additives such as an antioxidant, a buffer solution, and a bacteriostatic agent may be further added, as necessary.

     The pharmaceutical composition may be prepared in any formulation type selected from the group consisting of tablets, pills, powders, granules, capsules, suspensions, liquid medicines for internal use, emulsions, syrups, sterile aqueous solutions, non-aqueous solvents, lyophilized formulations, and suppositories. 
     The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may be administered in a pharmaceutically effective amount. 
     The term “pharmaceutically effective amount” used herein refers to an amount sufficient for the treatment of a disease at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio applicable to a medical treatment, and the level of the effective dose may be determined according to factors including type of a subject, severity of illness, age, sex, drug activity, drug sensitivity of a subject, administration time, administration route and dissolution rate, length of treatment of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, drug(s) used simultaneously with the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, and other factors well known in the medical field.

Additionally, it is important that an amount which can achieve the maximum effect with the least amount without any side effects be administered in consideration of all the factors described above. 
     In an embodiment of the present invention, it was confirmed that the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody of the present invention specifically bound to B cell lymphoma and exhibited an anticancer activity by acting on B cell lymphoma (Experimental Examples 1 to 5). 
     In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for treating B cell lymphoma including administering the monoclonal antibody to a subject suspected of having B cell lymphoma. 
     The monoclonal antibody, B cell lymphoma, and its treatment are the same as explained above. 
     The method for treating cancer may be a method for treating B cell lymphoma including administering a pharmaceutical composition containing the monoclonal antibody and additionally a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier to a subject having B cell lymphoma or suspected of having B cell lymphoma, and the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is the same as explained above. Preferably, the method for treating B cell lymphoma is a method for treating B cell lymphoma including administering a composition containing the monoclonal antibody to a subject having B cell lymphoma. 
     The subject may include mammals such as cattle, pigs, sheep, chicken, dogs, and humans, birds, etc., and may be any subject, without limitation, whose cancer can be treated by administering the composition. 
     In particular, the composition may be administered in a pharmaceutically effective amount at a single or a multiple dose. More particularly, the composition may be administered in the form of a liquid formulation, powder formulation, an aerosol, a capsule formulation, an enteric-coated tablet or capsule or suppository formulation. The administration route may include intraperitoneal administration, intravenous administration, intramuscular administration, subcutaneous administration, intracutaneous administration, oral administration, topical administration, intranasal administration, intrapulmonary administration, and intrarectal administration, but is not limited thereto. However, because peptides are digested when orally treated, the composition for oral administration should be formulated such that the active drug be coated or protected from decomposition in the stomach. Additionally, a pharmaceutical composition may be administered using a random device which enables to move an active substance to a target cell. 
     In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of providing information for diagnosing B cell lymphoma including: (a) treating, with the monoclonal antibody, a separated biological sample from a subject suspected of having B cell lymphoma; and (b) detecting the presence of B cell lymphoma cells from the sample in step (a). 
     The monoclonal antibody and B cell lymphoma are the same as explained above. The method of providing information for diagnosing B cell lymphoma may enable to provide information for the diagnosis of B cell lymphoma by reacting the B cell lymphoma-specific monoclonal antibody of the present invention with a separated biological sample of a subject suspected of having B cell lymphoma, followed by confirming the presence of B cell lymphoma cells. Since the B cell lymphoma-specific monoclonal antibody does not react with normal cells or tissues, B cell lymphoma may be diagnosed by examining the number of B cell lymphoma cells bound to the monoclonal antibody, or the degree of antigen binding, and then comparing the amount with that of control group such as normal cells or tissues, but is not limited thereto. 
     The term “biological sample” used herein may include tissues, cells, whole blood, blood serum, blood plasma, histological autopsy sample (brain, skin, lymph node, spinal cord, etc.), cell culture supernatant, disrupted eukaryotic cells and bacteria expression system, etc., and preferably a blood sample such as whole blood, blood serum, and blood plasma, but is not limited thereto. The presence of B cell lymphoma may be detected by reacting the biological samples in a manipulated or unmanipulated state with the antibody of the present invention. 
     In particular, the monoclonal antibody may have a detection label. When the monoclonal antibody does not have a detection label, the detection may be performed using other antibodies which can capture the monoclonal antibody and have a detection label, but is not limited thereto. 
     In another aspect, the present invention provides a composition for diagnosing B cell lymphoma containing the monoclonal antibody. 
     The monoclonal antibody and B cell lymphoma are the same as explained above. 
     Since the monoclonal antibody of the present invention can specifically recognize B cell lymphoma, it may be used for the diagnosis of B cell lymphoma by detecting the presence of B cell lymphoma in a separated biological sample using the same. 
     In another aspect, the present invention provides a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) protein, including: i) an antibody including a heavy chain variable region having a heavy chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 2; a heavy chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 3; and a heavy chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 4; and a light chain variable region having a light chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 6; a light chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 7; and a light chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 8; ii) a transmembrane domain; and iii) an intracellular signaling domain, which leads to T cell activation when an antigen binds to the antibody. 
     In the present invention, the CAR protein may be specified as being comprised of the monoclonal antibody of the present invention, a known transmembrane domain, and an intracellular signaling domain. Specifically, the CAR protein may have any nucleotide sequence encoding the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 53, and preferably, have a nucleotide sequence indicated by SEQ ID NO: 54. 
     The present invention provides a CAR-modified T cell capable of rapidly producing CD8+T cells in a large scale, which can be effectively used in the immunological treatment of cancer. Specifically, in the present invention, a CAR protein, which includes an extracellular domain including the anti-MVR antibody that specifically recognizes B cell lymphoma cells, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain which leads to T cell proliferation signaling when an antigen binds to the above antibody, was developed, and it was confirmed that T cell including the CAR protein is effective in treating B cell lymphoma. 
     The term “chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)” used herein refers to a receptor not present in nature and is capable of providing an immune effector cell with a specificity to a particular antigen. Normally, the CAR refers to a receptor used for delivering the specificity of the monoclonal antibody to a T cell. Generally, CAR consists of an extracellular domain (Ectodomain), a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain (Ectodomain). 
     The extracellular domain includes an antigen recognition region, and the antigen-binding region in the present invention is a B cell lymphoma-specific antibody, including a heavy chain variable region having a heavy chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 2; a heavy chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 3; and a heavy chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 4; and a light chain variable region having a light chain CDR1 described in SEQ ID NO: 6; a light chain CDR2 described in SEQ ID NO: 7; and a light chain CDR3 described in SEQ ID NO: 8. Preferably, the antibody used in the CAR is in the form of an antibody fragment, and more preferably, in the form of Fab or scFv, but is not limited thereto. 
     Additionally, the transmembrane domain of the CAR is in a form connected to the extracellular domain, and may be derived from a natural or synthesized one. When it is derived from the naturally present one, it may be one derived from a membrane-bound or transmembrane protein, and may be one derived from α, β, or ξ chain of a T cell receptor, transmembrane regions of various proteins such as CD28, CD3 epsilon, CD45, CD4, CD5, CDS, CD9, CD16, CD22, CD33, CD37, CD64, CD80, CD86, CD134, CD137, CD 154, and CD8. The sequence of the transmembrane domain may be obtained from published references in the art which disclose transmembrane domain of a transmembrane protein, but is not limited thereto. 
     Additionally, when the transmembrane domain is a synthetic one, it may mainly include hydrophobic amino acid residues such as leucine and valine, for example, it may be present in a transmembrane domain wherein a triplet of phenylalanine, tryptophane, and valine are synthesized, but is not limited thereto. The sequence information on the transmembrane domain may be obtained from published references in the art, but is not limited thereto. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, CD8-hinge region was used as a transmembrane domain. 
     The intracellular domain in the CAR of the present invention is part of the CAR domain, and is in a form connected to the transmembrane domain. The intracellular domain of the present invention may include an intracellular signaling domain, which is characterized in that it leads to T cell activation when an antigen binds to an antigen-binding region of the Car, and preferably, T cell proliferation. 
     The intracellular signaling domain is not particularly limited in its type insofar as it is a signaling part that can lead to T cell activation when the antibody binds to the antigen-binding region present extracellularly, for example, immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM), wherein the ITAM includes ones derived from CD3 zeta (ξ), FcR gamma, FcR beta, CD3 gamma, CD3 delta, CD3 epsilon, CDS, CD22, CD79a, CD79b, CD66d or FcεRIγ, but is not limited thereto. 
     Additionally, the intracellular domain of the CAR of the present invention preferably includes a co-stimulatory domain along with the intracellular signaling domain, but is not limited thereto. 
     The co-stimulatory domain is a part playing a role in delivering a signal to T cells, in addition to the signal by the intracellular signaling domain being included in the CAR of the present invention, and refers to an intracellular part of the CAR, including the intracellular domain of a co-stimulatory molecule. 
     The co-stimulatory molecule, being a cell surface molecule, refers to a molecule necessary for a sufficient response of a lymphocyte to an antigen, for example, CD27, CD28, 4-1BB, OX40, CD30, CD40, PD-1, ICOS, lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), CD2, CD7, LIGHT, NKG2C, or B7-H3, but is not limited thereto.

     Additionally, recombinant human IL-2 was purchased from Peprotech. RAG2 −/− c −/−  mice were provided by Central Institute for Experimental Animals (CIEA, Japan). Hela-CIITA (class II transactivator) cell line was provided by Dr. Philippe Pierre (Centre d&#39;Immunologie de Marseille-Luminy, Marseille, France). 
     Example 2: Cell Line 
     L3055 cells were cultured in a medium prepared by adding 10% FBS, 3 mM glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin G, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin to Iscoves modified Dulbeccos medium (IMDM, Irvine Science, Santa Ana, Calif.). THP-1, 293, PC3, Jurkat, CCRF-CEM, A431, 1A2, JVM2, and BC-1 cell lines were purchased from ATCC cell line bank (Manassas, Va.), and SNU638, SNU20, and SNU538 cell lines were provided by the Korean Cell Line Bank (KCLB, Seoul, Korea). EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cells (LCL) were prepared by infecting peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with a EBV B95-8 cell line, and then culturing in an RPMI1640 medium (WellGene, Korea), which was prepared by adding 10% FBS and antibiotics in a state provided with 1 μg/mL CsA. 
     Example 3: Construction of B Cell Lymphoma-Specific Monoclonal Antibody 
     A balb/c mouse was intraperitoneally injected with 2×10 7  of L3055 cell line a total of two times every two weeks. Three weeks after the second injection, 1×10 7  of the same cells were intravenously injected. On the 4 th  day from the final immune injection, the spleen cells of the mice were separated and fused using SP2/0 myeloma cells and PEG. The fused cells were aliquoted into a 96-well plate at a concentration of 5×10 5  cells/well, added with a HAT selective medium containing hypoxanthine (H) and aminopterin, and cultured thereafter. 
     Example 4: Separation of B Cell Lymphoma-Specific Hybridomas 
     In order to select B cell lymphoma-specific hybridoma clones, culture supernatants containing 1 to 10 hybridoma colonies were collected from each well, and used for staining the cell surface of L3055 cells. Then, the hybridomas in the positive well, which showed reactivity in flow cytometry analysis, were again aliquoted into a 96-well plate at a concentration of 2 cells/well, and performed a single cell cloning. On the 14 th  day of the culture, the culture supernatant containing one hybridoma colony was collected, and used it as a primary antibody for staining the cell surface of L3055 cells to perform flow cytometry analysis. 
     Example 5: Identification of Proteins Recognized by Anti-MVR Monoclonal Antibody 
     In order to separate proteins recognized by the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody, 10 mg of anti-MVR antibodies were passed through a column filled with 1 mL of protein A/G resin (Santa Cruz) to be conjugated, cross-linked using disuccinimidyl suberate, washed with PBS several times, and a column filled with anti-MVR mAb-cross-linked resin was prepared. LCL or 1A2 cells (2×10 8  cells) were suspended in Tris-buffered saline (TBS, 50 mM pH 7.5 Tris, and 150 mM NaCl) and homogenized the cells using a glass homogenizer. Cell debris was removed by centrifugation, and only the supernatant was recovered to prepare a cell lysate, which was repeatedly passed through an affinity column already prepared. Then, the resultant was washed 3 times with TBS, and then the conjugated proteins were separated using 100 mM glycine solution (pH 3.0). The proteins were concentrated via trichloroacetic acid precipitation method, and the separated proteins were separated on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel. The proteins separated on the gel were stained with silver SNAP kit (Pierce), and the protein bands identified under naked eye were cut out to perform QTOF (ESI-MS/MS). 
     Example 6: Western Blotting 
     Each sample was diluted with 5×SDS sample buffer solution, electrophoresed on an SDS-PAGE gel, and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Millipore, Bedford, Mass.). CD74 protein was detected using the anti-CD74 monoclonal antibody (By-2 clone) and secondary antibodies-HRP, and allowed to develop color using ECL kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Little Chalfont, UK). 
     Example 7: Short Interference RNA (siRNA) Transfection 
     According to the report by Liu Y H et al ( J Immunol  2008; 181: 6584-94), siRNA of CD74 (5′-GCAACAUGACAGAGGACCATGTGAC-3′, SEQ ID NO: 17) was synthesized. 
     After adding 0.5 mL of LCL cells at a concentration of 4×10 6  cells/mL, and then 100 pM and 500 pM CD74 siRNA to a 0.4 cm cuvette were, an electroporation was performed under the conditions of 250 volt and 950 g using GenePulser Xcell™ (Bio-Rad). Then, after culturing in a 6-well plate for 36 hours, the resultant was subjected to flow cytometry analysis and western blotting. 
     Example 8: Expression of Recombinant CD74 Isoforms 
     In order to prepare GFP-fused CD74 isoforms, each of PCR products of CD74 isoforms of p33, p41, and p43 was inserted into the Xho I/EcoR I site of pAcGFP1-C3 vector (Clontech, CA). 
     Among the CD74 isoforms, p35 and p43 used 5′-CTCGAGATGCACAGGAGAAGCAGGA-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 18) as a forward primer, whereas p41 used 5′-CTCGAGATGGATGACCAGCGCGACC-3′(SEQ ID NO: 19) as the forward primer. As a reverse primer, all three used 5′-GAATTCTCACATGGGGACTGGGCC-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 20) for amplification. 
     The thus prepared pAcGFP-p33, -p41, and -p43 were introduced into HeLa-CIITA cells via Lipofectamin™ 2000 (Invitrogen). Then, each cell was cultured for 36 hours, and their GFP expression was observed under fluorescent microscope. 
     Example 9: Conjugation Between a Malignant B Cell of a Patient and an Anti-MVR Monoclonal Antibody 
     All the blood and tissue samples used in the present invention were provided after IRP approval, and the experiments were performed in a research laboratory of National Cancer Center Korea. 
     Specifically, a 15 mL conical tube was filled with 5 mL of Ficoll, and then a blood sample collected from a chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) patient was placed on top of the Ficoll solution, and centrifuged under the condition of 840×g/20. Then, the monocytes located between the Ficoll solution and blood plasma were collected and washed. Additionally, for staining of cell surfaces, the separated cells were added with human AB serum, and treated with PE-conjugated anti-CD19 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) along, PE-anti CD19+FITC-conjugated anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies, PE-anti CD19+anti-CD74 MB741 monoclonal antibodies, respectively. For intracellular staining, the separated cells were added with human AB serum, and stained the cell surface with PE-conjugated anti-CD19 monoclonal antibodies, and then fixed/permeabilized the CD19-stained cells using a Cytofix/Cytoperm solution. Then, the resultant was intracellularly stained with anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies or the anti-CD74 monoclonal antibodies MB741, respectively. 
     In contrast, a frozen tissue section of a diffused large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patient obtained from the Catholic Research Tissue Specimen Bank (Seoul, Korea) was fixed using a Cytofix/Cytoperm solution, and stained with the anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies for 2 hours. The stained tissues were washed and subjected to secondary staining with the anti-mouse IgG-HRP. Then, the resultant was allowed to develop color by treating with 3′-diaminobenzidine, and then counterstained with hematoxylin. All the samples were fixed with the permanent mounting solution, covered with a coverslip and photographed under fluorescent microscope. 
     Experimental Example 1: Selection of B Cell Lymphoma-Specific Anti-MVR Hybridoma 
     A balb/c mouse was repeatedly subjected to an immune injection with live B cell lymphoma L3055 cells of human origin at 2 week intervals, and on the 4 th  day after the third immune injection, the spleen cells of the mouse were separated and fused with SP2/0 myeloma cells. The fused cells were aliquoted into a 96-well plate at a concentration of 1×10 6  cells/well, and cultured in a state where 1×HAT was contained therein. On the 14 th  day of the culture, the L3055 cells were subjected to flow cytometry analysis using the supernatant in each well as the primary antibodies. The wells which showed high reactivity to L3055 cells were selected, and the cells in the selected wells as containing about 1 to 10 hybridoma colonies were subjected to a single cloning in the manner again aliquoted into the 96-well culture plate. After 14 days, the wells having a single colony were selected, and the reactivity to L3055 cells was analyzed via flow cytometry using the culture supernatant in each well as the primary antibodies, and thirty some hybridomas producing the monoclonal antibodies capable of recognizing the surface proteins of the L3055 cells were selected ( FIG. 1 ). 
     Additionally, in order to select the hybridomas which specifically react only to B cell lymphoma, among the selected hybridomas capable of recognizing the L3055 cell surface proteins through the process illustrated in  FIG. 1 , the reactivity of the primarily selected hybridomas regarding various cancer cells, instead of B cell lymphomas such as THP-1, 293, SNU638, PC3, Jurkat, CCRF-CEM, and A431, were examined. 
     As a result, only four kinds of hybridomas (anti-MVR, IRC97, IRC120, and IRC278 hybridomas) among the thirty some hybridomas were shown to have no reactivity to the cancer cells ( FIG. 2A ). 
     As such, the secondarily selected four kinds of hybridomas were subjected to a third examination whether they also had high reactivity to six different kinds of B cell lymphoma cell lines. 
     As a result, the anti-MVR hybridoma, among the four different kinds of hybridomas, showed the highest reactivity to 1A2, JVM2, SNU538, and LCL, among the six different kinds of B cell lymphomas, and the lowest reactivity to BC1 and SNU20 cells ( FIG. 2B ). In particular, the flow cytometry analysis revealed that although the anti-MVR hybridoma showed a strong reactivity to various kinds of B cell lymphoma cells, it did not react with CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and CD14+ monocytes including normal CD19+ B cells, and also did not react with any lymphocytes ( FIG. 2C ). 
     The above results imply that the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody can recognize membrane proteins present only in B cell lymphomas. 
     Experimental Example 2: Confirmation of Binding-Antigen of Anti-MVR Monoclonal Antibody 
     In order to identify the membrane proteins recognized by the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody based on the result of Experimental Example 1, an anti-MVR mAb-crosslinking affinity purification column was prepared. Then, cell lysates were prepared from LCL and 1A2, and repeatedly passed through the prepared affinity purification column. Then, the proteins separated from the column was separated on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel, and subjected to silver staining. 
     As a result, two proteins were separated from LCL cells, and one protein was separated from 1A2 cells ( FIG. 3A ). When the separated proteins were cut out of the gel and analyzed via Q-TOF, the protein with about 30 kDa was identified to be a HLA class histocompatibility antigen, and the protein of about 40 kDa was identified to be a CD74 antigen (invariant chain) ( FIG. 3A ). 
     Human CD74 protein is a type II membrane protein, and there are p33, p35, p41, and p43 isoforms (Henne C et al., Immunology 1995; 84: 177-82). Accordingly, the protein with about 30 kDa separated by the anti-MVR antibodies was speculated to be p41 or p43 CD74. For its confirmation, the proteins which were passed through affinity purification by the anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies were subjected to western blotting using the anti-human CD74 antibodies. 
     As a result, the proteins separated by the anti-MVR antibodies was shown to be recognized by the anti-human CD74 antibodies, and their size was determined to be 41 KDa ( FIG. 3B ). 
     Additionally, in order to further confirm whether the proteins separated recognized by the anti-human CD74 antibodies are CD74, the LCL cell line, which showed high reactivity to the anti-MVR antibodies, was transfected with CD74 siRNA. 
     As a result, as the amount of the CD74 siRNA increased the number of cells not stained by the anti-MVR antibodies increased ( FIG. 3C ), and also the western blotting analysis using the anti-CD74 antibodies revealed that as the amount of the CD74 siRNA increased the expression of CD74 isoforms decreased ( FIG. 3D ). 
     In order to directly confirm whether the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody can recognize p41 CD74, a Hela-CII TA cell line was overexpressed with p33, p41, and p43 CD74 isoforms. 
     As a result, it was confirmed that each of the CD74 isoforms fused with the GFP fluorescent protein was a bit different from each other ( FIG. 3E ). Additionally, although the anti-CD74 antibodies were shown to recognize all the overexpressed CD74 isoforms, the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody of the present invention was shown not to recognize the overexpressed CD74 isoforms ( FIG. 3F ). 
     From the foregoing results, the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody of the present invention was speculated to recognize a CD74 variant (CD74v), which has not been known. 
     Experimental Example 3: Confirmation of Reactivity of Anti-MVR Monoclonal Antibody to Cancer Cells of a Clinical B Cell Lymphoma/Leukemia Patient 
     Although the above Experimental Examples confirmed that the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody of the present invention had high reactivity to various kinds of B cell lymphoma cell lines, it was not certain whether it also had high reactivity to B cell lymphoma/leukemia cells of a real clinical cancer patient. Accordingly, the specificity of the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody to the clinical B cell lymphoma/leukemia cells was examined. 
     For B cell leukemia, one bone marrow and two blood samples were obtained, and for B cell lymphoma, frozen tissue sections of a diffused large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of four different patients. Additionally, lymphocytes were separated from bone marrow and blood of all B cell leukemia patients; and the blood of CLL patients, and their cell surfaces were stained with the anti-CD19-PE antibodies, and then they were subjected to intracellular or cell surface staining with anti-CD74-FITC(MB741) or anti-MVR-FITC, respectively. In particular, the protein level expressed on the cell surfaces was confirmed via cell surface staining, whereas the entire expression level of CD74v and CD74 of the B cell leukemia cells was confirmed via intracellular staining. 
     Accordingly, the results of cell surface staining and intracellular staining revealed that CD74v, which is recognized by the anti-MVR antibodies, showed a high expression rate similar to the cell surface and intracellular levels, but CD74 was partially present on cell surface although its expression rate was high ( FIG. 4A ). Additionally, the result of flow cytometry analysis of cell surface expression of CD74v and CD74 of bone marrow lymphocytes of ALL patients revealed that CD74v and CD74 were expressed at a similar level in the B cell leukemia cells of bone marrow ( FIG. 4A ). The result of cell surface expression of CD74v and CD74 with respect to the blood lymphocytes of CLL patients revealed that CD74v, which is recognized by the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody, was expressed on cell surface at a high level but the expression level of CD74 was low ( FIG. 4A ). 
     Since the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody cannot recognize modified proteins it cannot stain paraffin tissues. Accordingly, frozen tissues obtained from four different DLBCL patients were cut out to have a thickness of 5 μm, stained with the anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies, secondarily stained with the anti-mouse IgG-HRP to develop color, thereby confirming the presence of conjugation with the anti-MVR antibodies. 
     As a result, it was confirmed that CD74v was expressed in the cancer cells of most DLBCL patients subjected to histochemical staining ( FIG. 4B ). 
     The above results suggest that the anti-MVR monoclonal antibody of the present invention can recognize the clinical B cell lymphoma/leukemia cancer cells. 
     Experimental Example 4: Identification of Nucleotide and Amino Acid Sequences of the Heavy Chain and the Light Chain of Anti-MVR Monoclonal Antibody 
     After isolating total RNA from 1×10 6  cells of the anti-MVR hybridoma using TRIZOL, a single stranded cDNA was constructed using superscript III kit (Invitrogen). For amplification of the variable regions of the light chain and the heavy chain of the anti-MVR antibody, PCR was performed using the primer set described in Tables 1 and 2 below.

     As a result of separation of PCR products amplified using each primer set from an agarose gel, it was confirmed that, in the case of the variable region of the light chain, the gene was amplified by MVK1, 3, 4, 7 and 10 primers, whereas, in the case of the variable region of the heavy chain, the gene was amplified by MVH 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 15 primers ( FIG. 5 ). 
     The sequences were identified and the results are shown in  FIG. 6 . Additionally, the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain variable region of the anti-MVR antibody was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 1, that of the heavy chain CDR1 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 2, that of the heavy chain CDR2 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 3, that of the heavy chain CDR3 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 4, that of the light chain variable region was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 5, that of the light chain CDR1 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 6, that of the light chain CDR2 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 7, and that of the light chain CDR3 was indicated in SEQ ID NO: 8 ( FIG. 6 ). 
     Additionally, in order to finally confirm whether the cloned anti-MVR heavy chain variable region (anti-MVR VH) and the light chain variable region (anti-MVR VL) are anti-MVR antibodies, the anti-MVR VH was conjugate to CH1, CH2, and CH3, which are constant regions of human IgG1 isotypes, whereas the anti-MVR VL was conjugated to CL1 of human Igκc, and cloned into pdCMV-dhfr vector, as illustrated in the diagram of  FIG. 7 . For the expression of the entire form of the thus prepared chimeric anti-MVR antibody (chiMVR), a construct was prepared. 
     The thus prepared DNA construct was transfected into a HEK 293 cell line, cultured for two days, and LCL cells were subjected to cell surface staining using the culture supernatant as the primary antibodies. Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines (EBV-LCL) is a representative cancer cell line which overexpresses CD74v protein recognized by the anti-MVR antibody. Accordingly, the EBV-LCL cells were stained with the chiMVR expressed in the HEK293 cells and the anti-MVR antibodies, and the staining pattern was analyzed via flow cytometry. Since the parental anti-MVR antibody is a mouse IgG form, it was stained using the anti-mouse IgG-FITC, whereas, chiMVR antibody, which is a human IgG form, was stained using the anti-human IgG-FITC. 
     As a result, the anti-MVR antibodies and the chiMVR antibodies were conjugated to the EBV-LCL in the same pattern, as shown in  FIG. 8 . Accordingly, the cloned VH and VL were determined to be the VH and VL of the anti-MVR antibodies. 
     Experimental Example 5: Confirmation of In Vitro Anticancer Activity of ChiMVR Monoclonal Antibody Against B Cell Lymphoma 
     Since the ChiMVR monoclonal antibody has a human IgG1 Fc region, antibodies-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC) by human natural killer (NK) cells can be measured. Accordingly, a blood sample was obtained from a single donor and then LCL, a B cell lymphoma transformed into EVB, was constructed, and simultaneously, the human NK cells separated from the same donor&#39;s blood was cultured and prepared effector cells and target cells to perform in vitro ADCC. Then, LCL stained with ChiMVR antibodies and LCL not stained with ChiMVR antibodies were prepared, and the LCL cells were labeled with  51 Cr for one hour. The NK cells as the effector cells, and the LCL as the target cells were mixed at a ratio of 10:1, 1:1, 1:10, and 1:100, cultured for 4 hours, and the released amount of  51 Cr was measured. 
     As a result, the EBV-LCL cells were shown to be highly induced of their cell lysis by NK cells compared to the cells labeled with the human IgG, as shown in  FIG. 9 . 
     The above results suggest that when the chiMVR antibodies are attached to the LCL cells, they increase the cell lysis of NK cells thereby providing an anticancer effect. 
     Experimental Example 6: In Vivo Anticancer Activity of ChiMVR Monoclonal Antibody Against B Cell Lymphoma 
     1A2 and LCL B cell lymphoma cells, which showed high reactivity to the anti-MVR antibodies, were aliquoted into a 96-well culture plate, added with the anti-MVR antibodies or mouse IgG as a control group, and cultured the cells for five days. Specifically, they were aliquoted at a concentration of 1×10 4  cells/well, treated with 5 μg/mL of the anti-MVR antibodies or mouse IgG, and cultured. 
     The number of live cells were measured using 4% Trypan blue solution daily for five days, and as a result, it was confirmed that the addition of the anti-MVR antibodies showed no affect on the proliferation of 1A2 or LCL ( FIG. 10A ). Accordingly, it was determined that the anti-MVR antibody has no direct impact on the proliferation of B cell lymphoma cells. 
     Additionally, when LCL cells were injected subcutaneously on the back of an immune-deficient mouse, RAG2 −/− c −/− , the LCL cells temporarily proliferated at the injected area, but, in about four weeks thereafter, cancer tissues disappeared from the injected region, and metastasized into an adjacent lymph node, i.e., the inguinal lymph node or the axillary lymph node, and proliferated. Accordingly, eight weeks after cancer cell injection, the inguinal lymph node or the axillary lymph node was separated, and frozen after adding it into an OCT compound to prepare sections. Then, the thus prepared frozen tissue sections were stained with anti-MVR antibodies and anti-mouse IgG-HRP antibodies, and developed using DAB substrate. 
     As a result, it was confirmed that, in most cells constituting lymph nodes, the lymph nodes were enlarged due to the proliferation of LCL cells which were metastasized into positive state. The phenomenon was determined to be due to the proliferation of part of cancer cells after their metastasis into lymph nodes while the LCL cancer cells injected subcutaneously on the back temporarily proliferated ( FIG. 10C ). 
     Additionally, the LCL cancer cells were injected subcutaneously on the back of an immune-deficient mouse, RAG2 −/− γc −/− , and from the 7 th  day after the cancer cell injection, the anti-MVR monoclonal antibodies were intraperitoneally injected daily at 5 day intervals. From the eighth week after the cancer cell injection, the inguinal lymph node or axillary lymph node was separated, and weighed to measure the growth of cancer cells. 
     As a result, when the immune-deficient RAG2 −/− c −/−  mouse was injected subcutaneously on the back with LCL cancer cells, and then intraperitoneally administered with the anti-MVR antibodies from the 7 th  day at 5 day intervals, the phenomenon of lymph node enlargement was inhibited ( FIG. 10E ). The phenomenon suggests that when the anti-MVR antibodies conjugate to the LCL cells, the metastasis of the LCL cells into lymph nodes may be inhibited. 
     Additionally, the LCL cells were injected subcutaneously on the back of the immune-deficient RAG2 −/− γc −/−  mouse, and seven weeks thereafter, was intravenously injected with  131 I-labeled anti-MVR antibodies. On the 1 st  day and the 6 th  day after the antibody injection, each mouse was photographed using ADAC argus gamma camera equipped with a pinhole collimator, and observed whether the antibodies selectively conjugated to the cancer cells. 
     The result revealed that the anti-MVR antibodies were non-specifically accumulated in the thyroid gland and liver but were observed to be selectively conjugated to cancer cells and maintained the conjugation for at least six days ( FIG. 10D ). 
     Experimental Example 7: Confirmation of Anticancer Effect of MVR-CAR CD8 T Cells Against B Cell Lymphoma 
     Antigen-specific CD8 +  T cells have been evaluated as most effective immune cells in immunological treatment of cancer. However, the separation of the antigen-specific CD8 +  T cells for use in the immunological treatment of cancer requires a complicated process and a long term period. As such, as a method of a large scale production of the antigen-specific CD8 +  T cells within a short period of time, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells were proposed (Porter D L et al., N Engl J Med. 2011; 365:725-33.). CAR is a protein which conjugates the scFv of an antibody to a signaling domain that induces the activation of a T cell, and preferably, to the signaling domain of a co-stimulating molecule and CD3ξ. The principle is that when the antibody moiety constituting the CAR recognizes a particular antigen, it induces a strong signaling for T cell proliferation thereby selectively proliferating CD8 T cells ( FIG. 11 ) 
     Accordingly, in the present invention, the V H  and L H  parts of the anti-MVR antibody were connected via a (GLY4SER) 3  linker to construct an anti-MVR scFv, and then using CD8-hinge as a transmembrane domain, and sequentially connected the 4-1BB intracellular domain (cytoplasmic domain) and the intracellular domain of the CD3ξ chain to prepare an MVR-CAR (SEQ ID NO: 53)( FIG. 11 ). Specifically, it consists of CD8αleader sequence (SEQ ID NO: 55), anti-MVR VL &amp; GlySer linker &amp; anti-MVR VH (SEQ ID NO: 56), CD8α (spanning from hinge region to transmembrane region) (SEQ ID NO: 57), 4-1BB signaling domain (SEQ ID NO: 58), and TCRζ signaling domain (SEQ ID NO: 59). MVR-CAR was constituted such that MVR-CAR gene can be introduced into a CD8 T cell by inserting into pELPS, which is a lentivirus vector, using lentivirus, and the vector was named as pELPS-IRC5-BBξ. 
     The above constructed pELPS-IRC5-BBξ DNA was introduced into 293 cells, and cultured for five days to produce MVR-CAR lentivirus. The lentivirus in the culture supernatant was concentrated via Lenti-X ⊚  Concentrator (Clontech) to introduce the MVR-CAR gene into a T cell. 
     Additionally, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were separated from the blood of a normal volunteer, and only CD8 + T cells were separated using CD8-microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). The separated CD8 + T cells were added with Dynal-beads coated with the anti-CD3 mAb and anti-CD28, and cultured for two days. On the 2 nd  day of the culture, the concentrated MVR-CAR/lentivirus was added at varied concentrations, and cultured for five days, and the MVR-CAR expression level of the CD8 + T cells was measured using protein L, which has been known to recognize the LH region of the light chain. 
     As a result of flow cytometry analysis, it was confirmed that as the amount of the added MVR-CAR/lentivirus increased the reactivity to protein L increased ( FIG. 12A ). Accordingly, the constructed MVR-CAR was determined to be successfully expressed in the CD8 + T cells. 
     In order to evaluate the capability of CD8 T cells, which express the MVR-CAR, for selectively removing of cancer cells, BC-1 cells and LCL, which are MVR-positive and MVR-negative cancer cells, were prepared, and stained with CFSE at different concentrations, to distinguish the two different kinds of cells. The cells were mixed at 1:1 ratio, and then at 1:1 ratio with CD8 T cells, which were infected with MVR-CAR/lentivirus, cultured for 4 hours or 18 hours, and subjected to flow cytometry analysis. The lysis % was calculated by measuring the selective reduced ratio of the CFSE high  MVR-positive LCL cells. 
     As a result, it was confirmed that the T cells in the control group did not reduce the ratio of the MVR-positive LCL, whereas the MVR-CAR CD8 T cells of the present invention selectively reduced the ratio of the MVR-positive LCL ( FIG. 12B ). 
     The above results suggest that the CD8 T cells, which overexpressed the MVR-CAR, can selectively recognize only the MVRpositive LCL and remove them, and thus they can be effectively used in the treatment of B cell lymphoma.
