A novel IFNα-induced long noncoding RNA, lncMX1-215, negatively regulates immunosuppression by interrupting H3K27 acetylation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

ABSTRACT: Interferon-alpha (IFNα) plays a ciritical role in immune regulation, especially in tumor microenvironment. Our previous study has demonstrated that IFNα promoted immunosuppression formation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. To explore the mechanism underlying IFNα-induced immunosuppression, long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) sequece was conduted. We identified a novel IFNα-induced upregulated lncRNA, lncMX1-215 in HNSCC. It was mainly located in cell nucleus. Ectopic expression of lncMX1-215 markedly inhibited IFNα-induced immunosuppression molecules, programmed cell death 1 ligand 1(PD-L1) and galectin-9 expression, and vice versa. Subsequently, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors promoted the expression of PD-L1 and galectin-9. There were binding sites of H3K27 acetylation on PD-L1 and galectin-9 promoters. Mechanically, we find that lncMX1-215 directly interacted with GCN5, a known H3K27 acetylase to interrupt its binding to H3K27 acetylation. Clinically, negative correlations between lncMX1-215 and PD-L1, galectin-9 were observed. Finally, overexpression of lncMX1-215 suppressed the proliferation and metastasis capacity in vitro and in vivo in HNSCC. Our results suggest that lncMX1-215 negatively regulates immunosuppression through interrupting GCN5/H3K27ac in HNSCC and provides novel insights into immune checkpoint blockade treatment.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Equipped by IFNα Empower T Cells with Potent Anti-tumor Immunity

Project description:Cancer treatments have been revolutionized by the emergence of immune checkpoint blockade therapies. However, only a minority of patients with various tumor types have benefited from such treatments. New strategies focusing on the immune contexture of the tumor tissue microenvironment hold great promises. Here, we created IFNα-overexpressing mesenchymal stromal cells (IFNα-MSCs). Upon direct injection into tumors, we found that these cells are powerful in eliminating several types of tumors. Interestingly, the intra-tumoral injection of IFNα-MSCs could also induce specific anti-tumor effects on distant tumors. These IFNα-MSCs promoted tumor cells to produce CXCL10, which in turn potentiates the infiltration of CD8+ T cells in the tumor site. Furthermore, IFNα-MSCs enhanced the expression of granzyme B (GZMB) in CD8+ T cells and invigorated their cytotoxicity in a Stat3-dependent manner. Genetic ablation of Stat3 in CD8+ T cells impaired the effect of IFNα-MSCs on GZMB expression. Importantly, combination of IFNα-MSCs and PD-L1 blockade induced an even stronger anti-tumor immunity. Therefore, IFNα-MSCs represent a novel tumor immunotherapy strategy, especially when combined with PD-L1 blockade.

RNA sequencing of mouse CT26 knockout Pd-l1 cells rescued with WT or K262Q Pd-l1

Project description:Although membrane-anchored Pd-l1 has been well-studied for its engagement with PD-1 on T cells to evade anti-tumor immunity, whether Pd-l1 regulate oncogenic signaling pathways in tumor cells remains elusive. In this experiment, to further dissect roles of the K262 residue acetylation for Pd-l1 nuclear function, we profiled RNA expression of WT or K262Q mutant mouse Pd-l1 re-expressed in CT26 KO Pd-l1 cells. Methods: Total RNA fromCT26/Vector, CT26/WT or CT26 Pd-l1 KO cells was purified using Qiagen RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Library preparation and sequenceing analysis were performed by BGI-Hong Kong Co. Ltd. Conclusions: Our study indicates that Pd-l1 acetylation modification may affect its function in nuclear.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy is sufficient to promote microenvironmental normalization via Type I interferon pathway in PD-L1+ expressing head and neck cancer

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) targeting programmed death 1(PD-1) are considered effective first-line therapy against PD-1 ligand (PD-L1)-expressing head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, associated changes in tumor microenvironment (TME) and mechanisms remain elusive. Oral tumors in C57/BL6 mice were induced by administering 7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene into the buccal mucosa. Single-cell suspension was isolated from tumor tissue; proliferating cells were injected subcutaneously into the left flank of mice to establish Ajou Oral Cancer (AOC) cell lines. Subsequently, a syngeneic PD-L1-expressing HNSCC xenograft model was developed by injecting AOC cells into the buccal or tongue area. The model recapitulated human HNSCC molecular features and showed reliable in vivo tumorigenicity with significant PD-L1 expression. ICB monotherapy induced global changes in TME, including vascular normalization. Furthermore, the anti-tumor effect of ICB monotherapy was superior to those of other therapeutic agents, including cisplatin and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 inhibitors. The ICB-induced anti-tumorigenicity and TME normalization were alleviated by blocking the Type I interferon pathway.In summary, ICB monotherapy is sufficient to induce TME normalization in the syngeneic model; the Type-I interferon pathway is indispensable in realizing ICB effects. Furthermore, these results explain the underlying mechanism of the efficacy of ICB monotherapy against HNSCC expressing PD-L1 in the KEYNOTE-048 trial. This model can assist future research on HNSCC immunotherapy.

PCAF/GCN5-regulated genes in MEFs

Project description:Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) GCN5/PCAF and CBP/p300 are transcription coactivators. However, how these HATs regulate ligand-induced nuclear receptor target gene expression remains unclear. Here we show in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), deletion of GCN5/PCAF specifically eliminates acetylation on H3K9 (H3K9Ac) while deletion of CBP/p300 selectively reduces acetylation on H3K18 and H3K27 (H3K18/27Ac). Treating MEFs with a specific ligand for nuclear receptor PPARdelta induces sequential increases of H3K18/27Ac and H3K9Ac on the promoter of PPARdelta target gene Angptl4, which correlates with a robust ligand-induced Angptl4 expression. Inhibiting transcription elongation blocks ligand-induced H3K9Ac but not H3K18/27Ac on Angptl4 promoter. Finally, we show CBP/p300 and their HAT activities are required, while GCN5/PCAF and H3K9Ac are dispensable, for ligand-induced PPARdelta target gene expression in MEFs. These results highlight the substrate and site specificities of HATs in cells, and suggest that GCN5/PCAF- and CBP/p300-mediated histone acetylations play distinct roles in regulating ligand-induced nuclear receptor target gene expression. PCAF and GCN5 have some redundant function. To identify PCAF/GCN5-regulated genes, immortalized MEFs with PCAF knockout and GCN5 conditional knockout were infected with retroviruses expressing either Cre recombinase or vector alone. We prepared duplicated RNAs from either vector or Cre infected cells (PCAF-/-;GCN5+/- or PCAF-/-;GCN5+/-) and RNAs from either Vector or Cre infected the other independently immortalized cells for 6 affymetrix microarray.

Immunologically hot phenotype is associated with response to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Project description:Ongoing immunomodulatory strategies in tumors characterized by an overall hot immune phenotype may improve prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). Our objective was to develop a reliable and stable scoring system for the identification of immunologically hot HNSCC and to evaluate its association with response to immunotherapies. A Hot Oral Tumor (HOT) score was developed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. HOT score was computed in 102 patients with HNSCC treated with immunotherapy targeting PD-1/PD-L1 in the context of clinical trials. High HOT score was associated with a statistically significant improved clinical outcome.

SN-38, an active metabolite of irinotecan, enhances anti-PD1 treatment efficacy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Project description:Anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) therapy shows definite but modest activity in patients with advanced/metastatic HNSCC. Preliminary evidence suggests that SN-38, an activated form of irinotecan that activates the transcription factor FoxO3a, may suppress the expression of PD-L1 in breast and ovarian tumor models. Here, we explore the efficacy of SN-38 in combination with anti-PD1 for HNSCC treatment. In vitro, SN-38 enhances FoxO3a expression and reduces the expression of PD-L1 dose-dependently in HNSCC cells. Low dose SN-38 increases interferon- excretion by natural killer (NK) cells and promotes NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity of tumor cells. In vivo studies reveal that, at non-cytotoxic drug concentrations, SN-38 significantly enhances anti-PD-1 activity in suppressing murine tumor growth. An increased infiltration of CD8+ T cells and NK cells was found in the post-treatment tumors. RNA-seq analysis confirms that SN-38 promotes the enrichment of immune cells and biological function genes related to the immune response became abundant in SN-38 and anti-PD1 treated tumors. Thus, SN-38 is a potentially beneficial adjunct to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in HNSCC. Further studies to explore its mechanism of action and possible application are mandatory.

Activation and acetylation of tumor-intrinsic PD-L1 via HBXIP accelerates breast cancer growth

Project description:Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is a well-known transmembrane protein, which antibodies present effective clinical therapy in multiple human cancers. However, the function of tumor cell-intrinsic PD-L1 and its related mechanism in breast cancer remains incompletely studied. Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) on the membrane of tumor cells strengthens tumor immune escape. Tumor cell-intrinsic PD-L1 is also involved in tumorigenesis and development, but the mechanism in regulating PD-L1 expression remains incompletely studied. Here, we report a novel mechanism for PD-L1 that can be induced by hepatitis B X-interacting protein (HBXIP), an oncogenic transcriptional coactivator, promoting breast cancer growth. Overexpression of PD-L1 increases breast cancer proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptomic analysis also reveals that PD-L1 plays a critical role in cancer development. Furthermore, we find that the expression of PD-L1 is positively associated with HBXIP in breast cancer clinical tissues as well as in cell lines, PD-L1 and HBXIP expression have higher levels in tumor. Mechanistically, HBXIP predominantly stimulates the promoter activity of PD-L1 through coactivating transcription factor ETS2. Especially, HBXIP induced PD-L1 acetylation with the acetyltransferase p300 at lysine 270 (K270), enhancing PD-L1 protein stability. Functionally, depletion of HBXIP markedly attenuates PD-L1-induced breast tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, aspirin decreased breast cancer growth via targeting PD-L1 and HBXIP. Taken together, our results extend a new mechanism of PD-L1 functions, expound non-immune effects of PD-L1 and imply broader uses for PD-L1 as a target in breast cancer therapy.
