Chemoproteomics reveals immunogenic and tumor-associated cell surface substrates of ectokinase CK2α.

ABSTRACT: New epitopes for immune recognition provide the basis of anticancer immunity. Due to the high concentration of extracellular adenosine triphosphate in the tumor microenvironment, we hypothesized that extracellular kinases (ectokinases) could have dysregulated activity and introduce aberrant phosphorylation sites on cell surface proteins. We engineered a cell-tethered version of the extracellular kinase CK2α, demonstrated it was active on cells under tumor-relevant conditions, and profiled its substrate scope using a chemoproteomic workflow. We then demonstrated that mice developed polyreactive antisera in response to syngeneic tumor cells that had been subjected to surface hyperphosphorylation with CK2α. Interestingly, these mice developed B cell and CD4+ T cell responses in response to these antigens but failed to develop a CD8+ T cell response. This work provides a workflow for probing the extracellular phosphoproteome and demonstrates that extracellular phosphoproteins are immunogenic even in a syngeneic system.

Project description:ObjectivesPathologists have routinely observed distinct histologic patterns of growth in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), which have been suggested to be associated with prognosis. Herein, we investigated the relationship between LUAD patterns of growth, as defined by the updated international association for the study of lung cancer (IASLC) grading criteria, and differences in the tumor immune microenvironment to identify predictors of response to immunotherapy.Methods174 resected stage I-III LUAD tumors were classified by histologic pattern of growth (i.e. solid, micropapillary, acinar, papillary, and lepidic) and then grouped as well differentiated, moderately differentiated, and poorly differentiated. Comprehensive multiplatform analysis including whole exome sequencing, gene expression profiling, immunohistochemistry, CIBERSORT, and T-cell receptor sequencing was performed and groups were compared for differences in genomic drivers, immune cell infiltrate, clonality, and survival. Finally, multivariate analysis was performed adjusting for pathologic stage and smoking status.ResultsPoorly differentiated tumors demonstrated a strong association with smoking relative to moderately differentiated or well differentiated tumors. However, unlike in prior reports, poorly differentiated tumors were not associated with a worse survival after curative-intent resection. Genomic analysis revealed that poorly differentiated tumors are associated with high tumor mutation burden but showed no association with oncogenic drivers. Immune analyses revealed that poorly differentiated tumors are associated with increased T-cell clonality, expression of PD-L1, and infiltration by cytotoxic CD8 T-cells, activated CD4 T-cells, and pro-inflammatory (M1) macrophages. Finally, multivariate analysis controlling for stage and smoking status confirmed independence of immune differences between IASLC grade groups.ConclusionsPoorly differentiated tumors, as defined by the updated IASLC grading criteria, are associated with a distinct immunogenic tumor microenvironment that predicts for therapeutic response to immune agents, including checkpoint inhibitors, and should be included in the clinical trial design of immunotherapy studies in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma.
