Enhanced lipid metabolism confers the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in CD5-positive non-MYC/BCL2 double expressor lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Lymphoma cells expressing CD5 (CD5+) confer inferior outcome of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), especially in non-MYC/BCL2 double expressor (non-DE) patients. In tumor microenvironment, CD5+ non-DE tumor revealed increased proportion of immunosuppressive M2 macrophages and enhanced pathways related to macrophage activation and migration. In accordance to M2 activation, lipid metabolism was upregulated, including fatty acid uptake and fatty acid oxidation, which supplied energy for M2 macrophage polarization and activation. Meanwhile, CD36 expression was upregulated and strongly correlated to the proportion of M2 macrophages in CD5+ non-DE DLBCL. In vitro, a DLBCL cell line (LY10) overexpressing CD5 significantly increased M2 proportion in comparison with control when cocultur
