Glioma-derived ANXA1 suppresses the immune response to TLR3 ligands by promoting an anti-inflammatory tumor microenvironment.

ABSTRACT: A highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and the presence of the blood‒brain barrier are the two major obstacles to eliciting an effective immune response in patients with high-grade glioma (HGG). Here, we tried to enhance the local innate immune response in relapsed HGG by intracranially injecting poly(I:C) to establish a robust antitumor immune response in this registered clinical trial (NCT03392545). During the follow-up, 12/27 (44.4%) patients who achieved tumor control concomitant with survival benefit were regarded as responders in our study. We found that the T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire in the TME was reshaped after poly(I:C) treatment. Based on the RNA-seq analysis of tumor samples, the expression of annexin A1 (ANXA1) was significantly upregulated in the tumor
