Multifactorial Remodeling of the Cancer Immunopeptidome by IFNγ.

ABSTRACT: IFNγ alters the immunopeptidome presented on HLA class I (HLA-I), and its activity on cancer cells is known to be important for effective immunotherapy responses. We performed proteomic analyses of untreated and IFNγ-treated colorectal cancer patient-derived organoids and combined this with transcriptomic and HLA-I immunopeptidomics data to dissect mechanisms that lead to remodeling of the immunopeptidome through IFNγ. IFNγ-induced changes in the abundance of source proteins, switching from the constitutive to the immunoproteasome, and differential upregulation of different HLA alleles explained some, but not all, observed peptide abundance changes. By selecting for peptides which increased or decreased the most in abundance, but originated from proteins with limited abundance changes, we
