HMBPP Analog Prodrugs Bypass Energy-Dependent Uptake To Promote Efficient BTN3A1-Mediated Malignant Cell Lysis by V?9V?2 T Lymphocyte Effectors.

ABSTRACT: V?9V?2 effector T cells lyse cells in response to phosphorus-containing small molecules, providing primates a unique route to remove infected or malignant cells. Yet, the triggering mechanisms remain ill defined. We examined lysis mediated by human V?9V?2 effector T cells in response to the naturally occurring (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-but-2-enyl diphosphate (HMBPP) or a synthetic cell-permeable prodrug, bis (pivaloyloxymethyl) (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-but-2-enyl phosphonate. CD27(+)/CD45RA(-) Th1-like effector cells killed K562 target cells through a mechanism that could be enhanced by either compound or TCR Ab and blocked by Src inhibition or butyrophilin 3 isoform A1 (BTN3A1) disruption. Pretreatment at 4 °: C decreased HMBPP-induced lysis but did not reduce lysis induced by bis (pivaloyloxymethyl) (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-but-2-enyl phosphonate. Together, our results show that internalization of HMBPP into target cells is required for BTN3A1-dependent lysis by V?9V?2 effector T cells. The enhanced activity of the prodrug analog is due to its ability to bypass the pathways required for entry of HMBPP. These findings support an inside-out model of T cell triggering driven by small-molecule induction of BTN3A1.

Project description:BackgroundClinical trials have shown that immunotherapy based on Vγ9Vδ2 T cells (Vδ2 T cells) is safe and well-tolerated for various cancers including cervical cancer (CC), but its overall treatment efficacy remains limited. Therefore, exploring the mechanisms underlying the suboptimal efficacy of Vδ2 T cell-based cancer immunotherapy is crucial for enabling its successful clinical translation.MethodsTumor samples from CC patients and CC cell line-derived xenograft (CDX) mice were analyzed using flow cytometry to examine the exhausted phenotype of tumor-infiltrating Vδ2 T cells. The interrelationship between BTN3A1 expression and Vδ2 T cells in CC, along with their correlation with patient prognosis, was analyzed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. CC cell lines with BTN3A1 knockout (KO) and overexpression (OE) were constructed through lentivirus transduction, which were then co-cultured with expanded Vδ2 T cells, followed by detecting the function of Vδ2 T cells using flow cytometry. The pathways and transcription factors (TFs) related to BTN3A1-induced Vδ2 T cells exhaustion and the factors affecting BTN3A1 expression were identified by RNA-seq analysis, which was confirmed by flow cytometry, Western Blot, and gene manipulation.ResultsTumor-infiltrating Vδ2 T cells exhibited an exhausted phenotype in both CC patients and CDX mice. BTN3A1 expressed in CC is highly enhancing exhaustion markers, while reducing the secretion of effector molecules in Vδ2 T cells. Blocking TCR or knocking down nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A (NR4A) 2/3 can reverse BTN3A1-induced exhaustion in Vδ2 T cells. On the other hand, IFN-γ secreted by Vδ2 T cells promoted the expression of BTN3A1 and PD-L1.ConclusionsThrough binding γδ TCRs, BTN3A1 expressed on tumor cells, which is induced by IFN-γ, can promote Vδ2 T cells to upregulate the expression of TFs NR4A2/3, thereby affecting their activation and expression of exhaustion-related molecules in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Therefore, targeting BTN3A1 might overcome the immunosuppressive effect of the TME on Vδ2 T cells in CC.
