AURKA inhibitor-induced PD-L1 upregulation impairs antitumor immune responses.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Tumor immunotherapy targeting PD-L1 has emerged as one of the powerful tools for tumor therapy. Numerous studies indicate that tumor-targeted drugs critically have an influence on the interaction between the immune system and tumors by changing the expression of PD-L1, which is beneficial for immunotherapy. Our study provided novel evidence for improving the drug regimen in tumor targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Methods

The expression of PD-L1 on SKBR3, MDA-MB-231, MCF7, 4T1, MC38 and B16 cells was evaluated by flow cytometry after treatment with six preclinical targeted drugs (ARN-509, AZD3514, Galeterone, Neratinib, MLN8237 and LGK974). AURKA was knockdowned by using the specific siRNA or CRISPR-Cas9 technology. In the 4T1-breast tumor and colorectal cancer
