Mitochondrial fission induces immunoescape in solid tumors through decreasing MHC-I surface expression.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial dynamics can regulate Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)-I antigen expression by cancer cells and their immunogenicity in mice and in patients with malignancies. A crucial role in the mitochondrial fragmentation connection with immunogenicity is played by the IRE1α-XBP-1s axis. XBP-1s is a transcription factor for aminopeptidase TPP2, which inhibits MHC-I complex cell surface expression likely by degrading tumor antigen peptides. Mitochondrial fission inhibition with Mdivi-1 upregulates MHC-I expression on cancer cells and enhances the efficacy of adoptive T cell therapy in patient-derived tumor models. Therefore mitochondrial fission inhibition might provide an approach to enhance the efficacy of T cell-based immunotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundExtracellular matrix stiffness is emerging as a crucial mechanical cue that drives the progression of various diseases, such as cancer, fibrosis, and inflammation. The matrix stiffness of the nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues increase gradually during intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), while the mechanism through which NP cells sense and react to matrix stiffness remains unclear. In addition, mitochondrial dynamics play a key role in various cellular functions. An in-depth investigation of the pathogenesis of IDD can provide new insights for the development of effective therapies. In this study, we aim to investigate the effects of matrix stiffness on mitochondrial dynamics in IDD.MethodsTo build the gradient stiffness model, NP cells were cultured on polystyrene plates with different stiffness. Western blot analysis, and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the expression of mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins. Flow cytometry was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular Ca2+ levels. Apoptosis related proteins, ROS level, and TUNEL staining were performed to assess the effect of substrate stiffness on NP cells.ResultsStiff substrate increased phosphorylation of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) at Ser616 by activating extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) pathway, which promoted mitochondrial fission and apoptosis in NP cells. Furthermore, Piezo1 activation was involved in the regulation of the post-translational modifications of Drp1 and mitochondrial fission caused by matrix stiffness. Inhibition of Piezo1 and ERK1/2 can effectively reduce stiffness-induced ROS elevation and apoptosis in NP cells.ConclusionsOur results revealed that stiff substrate causes Piezo1 activation and Ca2+ influx, results in ERK1/2 activation and phosphorylation of Drp1 at S616, and finally leads to mitochondrial fission and apoptosis in NP cells. These findings reveal a new mechanism of mechanotransduction in NP cells, providing novel insights into the development of therapies for treating IDD.
