Testudinidosis: A New Mechanism of Resistance to Immune Attack

ABSTRACT: Antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) provides a model for uncovering immune resistance mechanisms. We continuously exposed epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)+ A431 cells to KIR-deficient NK92-CD16V effector cells and the anti-EGFR mAb cetuximab. Persistent ADCC exposure yielded ADCC-resistant cells (ADCCR1) that, compared with control ADCC-sensitive cells (ADCCS1), exhibited reduced EGFR expression, overexpression of histone- and interferon-related genes and failure to activate NK cells, without evidence of epithelial: mesenchymal transition. These properties gradually reversed following withdrawal of ADCC selection pressure. A second A431-derived ADCC-resistant cell line maintained EGFR expression. Remarkably, ADCCR1 cells possessed lower expression of multiple cell surface molecules that contribute to cell: cell interactions and immune synapse formation. Classic immune checkpoints did not modulate ADCC in this unique model system of immune resistance. Just as giant tortoises (Testudinidae) can hide in their shells to avoid predation, this novel immune evasion mechanism, termed testudinidosis, can protect cells against immune attack.

Expression data from Uveal Melanoma

Project description:Despite advances in surgery and radiotherapy of uveal melanoma (UM), many patients develop distant metastases that poorly respond to therapy. Improved therapies for the metastatic disease are therefore urgently needed. Expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a target of kinase inhibitors and humanized antibodies in use for several cancers, had been reported. 48 human UMs were analyzed by expression profiling. Evidence for signaling in tumors was obtained through the application of a UM-specific EGF signature. The EGFR specific kinase inhibitor, Gefitinib, and the humanized monoclonal antibody, Cetuximab, were tested for their effect on EGFR signaling. Natural killer cell mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and TNF-alpha release was analyzed for Cetuximab. EGFR appears suited as a novel molecular drug target for therapy of uveal melanoma. Gene expression profiles of 19 unique samples from uveal melanoma patients were measured.

Transcription profiling by array of human wild type and gefitinib-resistant A431 cancer cells

Project description:A431 wild-type (wt) cancer cell line is sensitive to treatment with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). By culturing it chronically under gefitinib, it eventually becomes resistant (A431_GR cell). We know of a few proteins involved in this mechanism of drug resistance, but a cDNA exprssion array would add information to other genes that might be involved in this resistance mechanism. We used microarrays to identify the differences in the global gene expression between A431_wt (wild-type) cells and A431_GR cells. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from parental (wild-type) and GR (gefitinib-resistant) A431 cells using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), followed by RNeasy Mini Kit column purification (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) including an in column DNAse clean-up using RNAse-free DNAse Set (Qiagen). Synthesis of cRNA target, its hybridization to Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays and scanning of those arrays was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip products and reagents in accordance with the manufacturerâs recommendations at the Vanderbilt Microarray Shared Resource.

Immunotherapy Utilizing NK cells and ADCC Mediating Agents with Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) Inhibition

Project description:Background: Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) prevent single-stranded DNA repair. Olaparib is a PARPi approved for the treatment of BRCA mutant ovarian and breast carcinoma. Emerging clinical data suggest a benefit of combining olaparib with immunotherapy in prostate cancer patients both with and without somatic BRCA mutations. Methods: We examined if olaparib, when combined with IgG1 antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)-mediating monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) cetuximab (anti-EGFR), or avelumab (anti-PD-L1), would increase tumor cell sensitivity to killing by natural killer (NK) cells independently of BRCA status or mAb target upregulation. BRCA mutant and BRCA wildtype (WT) prostate carcinoma cell lines were pretreated with olaparib and then exposed to NK cells in the presence or absence of cetuximab or avelumab. Results: NK-mediated killing was significantly increased in both cell lines and was further increased using the ADCC-mediating mAbs. Pre-exposure of NK cells to recombinant IL-15/IL-15RA further increased the lysis of olaparib treated tumor cells. In addition, olaparib treated tumor cells were killed to a significantly greater degree by engineered high-affinity NK cells (haNK). We show here for the first time that (a) olaparib significantly increased tumor cell sensitivity to NK killing and ADCC in both BRCA WT and BRCA mutant prostate carcinoma cells, independent of PD-L1 or EGFR modulation; (b) mechanistically, treatment with olaparib upregulated death receptor TRAIL-R2, and (c) olaparib significantly enhanced NK killing of additional tumor types, including breast, non-small cell lung carcinoma, and chordoma. Conclusions: These studies support the combined use of NK- and ADCC-mediating agents with correctly timed PARP inhibition.

Time kinetics of gene expression in NK92 cells after Plasmodium falciparum-iRBC encounter

Project description:To study the effect of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes on gene expression in NK92 cells, microarray analysis after 6, 12 and 24 hours of co-culture with either uRBC or iRBC was performed. The aim was to identify pathways in NK92 cells that are switched on after iRBC encounter in a time-dependent manner that will help to understand the mechanisms in innate immune defenses against Plasmodium falciparum infection. Variation in gene expression of NK92 cells was determined after 6, 12, and 24 hours of co-culture with either infected or uninfected RBC compared to timepoint 0 (start of co-culture, untreated control). All experiments were done in triplicate, that means that samples were collected in 3 different experiments (A, B, and C) each time after 0, 6, 12 and 24 hours of co-culture.

The secretome of skin cancer cells activates the mTOR/MYC pathway in healthy keratinocytes and converts them into tumorigenic cells

Project description:Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the most aggressive tumor among non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC), showing a high potential for local invasion and metastasis. In recent years, the incidence of cSCC has increased tremendously due to increased UV exposure. The secretome of cancer cells is currently the focus of many studies in order to identify new marker proteins for different types of cancer and to investigate its influence on the tumor microenvironment. In our study we evaluated whether the secretome of cSCC cells has an impact on keratinocytes, the surrounding tissue cells of cSCC. Therefore, we analyzed and compared the secretome of human A431 cancer cells and of HaCaT keratinocytes by mass spectrometry. In a second experiment, keratinocytes were exposed to the secretome of A431 cells and the transcriptome was analyzed by next-generation sequencing. Several proto-oncogenes including MYC and EGFR were up-regulated and tumor suppressor genes such as CDKN2A and TP53 were down-regulated in keratinocytes treated with A431 conditioned medium (CM). HaCaT cells incubated with A431-CM revealed a significantly activated mTOR pathway with a concomitant increase in proliferation and migration. In contrast, the inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin led to a decreased proliferation- and migration-rate of A431-CM treated keratinocytes, which demonstrated the relevance of the mTOR complex in these processes. In conclusion, our data demonstrate the impact of the secretome of cancer cells on the transcription machinery of the cells surrounding the tumor, leading to a tumorigenic cell fate. These observations underline the influence of mTOR on cSCC and might bear significance for novel strategies in cancer therapy.

Viral infection enhances NK cell activation via Type I dependent pathways and can be utilized to enhance influenza-specific monoclonal antibody therapies

Project description:NK cells are an essential component for the control of influenza infection, acting to both clear virus-infected cells and release antiviral cytokines. Engagement of the NK cell CD16-receptor by antibody-coated influenza-infected cells results in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Though NK cell-mediated ADCC is an important mechanism to control influenza, influenza infection itself may act to enhance the potency of NK cell ADCC. To understand if virus-infected cells increase NK cell activation, we co-cultured human PBMCs with influenza-infected human alveolar epithelial (A549) cells and evaluated the capacity of NK cells to mediate ADCC. Pre-incubation of PBMCs with influenza-infected target cells markedly enhanced the functionality of NK cells by ADCC antibodies in response to HA immune-complexes containing intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), allogenic target cells, with and without rituximab. Trans-well and supernatant transfer experiments showed that virus released into the supernatant is responsible for the enhanced functionality of NK cells, which is apparent at both the protein and RNA transcriptomic levels. Furthermore, cytokine multiplex data, RNA sequencing and cytokine blocking/supplementation experiments showed Type I interferons released from PBMCs were the primary mechanism of the influenza-induced increased NK cell functionality and ADCC potency. Importantly, the influenza infection-mediated increase in NK cell mediated anti-influenza ADCC was mimicked by the type I interferon agonist Poly-IC. This suggests a potential mechanism for enhancing monoclonal antibody therapies for influenza. We conclude that influenza-infection induced secretion of type I interferons enhances the ADCC capacity of NK cells and this pathway may potentially be manipulated to improve anti-influenza therapies.
