FcγRIIB controls antibody-mediated target cell depletion by ITIM-independent mechanisms.

ABSTRACT: Many therapeutic antibodies deplete target cells and elicit immunotherapy by engaging activating Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) on host effector cells. These antibodies are negatively regulated by the inhibitory FcγRIIB (CD32B). Dogma suggests inhibition is mediated through the FcγRIIB immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM), negatively regulating immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-mediated signaling from activating FcγR. To assess this, we generated experimental models expressing human (h)FcγRIIB on targets or effectors, lacking or retaining ITIM signaling capacity. We demonstrate that signaling through the hFcγRIIB ITIM is dispensable for impairing monoclonal antibody (mAb)-mediated depletion of normal and malignant murine target cells through three therapeutically relevant surface receptors (CD20, CD25, and OX40) affecting immunotherapy. We demonstrate that hFcγRIIB competition with activating FcγRs for antibody Fc, rather than ITIM signaling, is sufficient to impair activating FcγR engagement, inhibiting effector function and immunotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundProstate cancer (PC) remains a leading cause of cancer mortality and the most successful chemopreventative and treatment strategies for PC come from targeting the androgen receptor (AR). Although AR plays a key role, it is likely that other molecular pathways also contribute to PC, making it essential to identify and develop drugs against novel targets. Recent studies have identified peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), a nuclear receptor that regulates fatty acid (FA) metabolism, as a novel target in PC, and suggest that inhibitors of PPARγ could be used to treat existing disease. We hypothesized that PPARγ acts through AR-dependent and independent mechanisms to control PC development and growth and that PPARγ inhibition is a viable PC treatment strategy.MethodsImmunohistochemistry was used to determine expression of PPARү in a cohort of patients with PC. Standard molecular techniques were used to investigate the PPARү signaling in PC cells as well a xenograft mouse model to test PPARү inhibition in vivo. Kaplan-Meier curves were created using cBioportal.ResultsWe confirmed the expression of PPARү in human PC. We then showed that small molecule inhibition of PPARγ decreases the growth of AR-positive and -negative PC cells in vitro and that T0070907, a potent PPARγ antagonist, significantly decreased the growth of human PC xenografts in nude mice. We found that PPARγ antagonists or small interfering RNA (siRNA) do not affect mitochondrial activity nor do they cause apoptosis; instead, they arrest the cell cycle. In AR-positive PC cells, antagonists and siRNAs reduce AR transcript and protein levels, which could contribute to growth inhibition. AR-independent effects on growth appear to be mediated by effects on FA metabolism as the specific FASN inhibitor, Fasnall, inhibited PC cell growth but did not have an additive effect when combined with PPARγ antagonists. Patients with increased PPARү target gene expression, but not alterations in PPARү itself, were found to have significantly worse overall survival.ConclusionsHaving elucidated the direct cancer cell effects of PPARγ inhibition, our studies have helped to determine the role of PPARγ in PC growth, and support the hypothesis that PPARγ inhibition is an effective strategy for PC treatment.
