The loss of RNA N 6-adenosine methyltransferase Mettl14 in tumor-associated macrophages promotes CD8 + T cell dysfunction and tumor growth

ABSTRACT: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) can dampen the antitumor activity of T cells, yet the underlying mechanism remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that C1q+ TAMs are regulated by an RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) program and modulate tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells by expressing multiple immunomodulatory ligands. Macrophage-specific knockout of an m6A methyltransferase Mettl14 drives CD8+ T cell differentiation along a dysfunctional trajectory, impairing CD8+ T cells to eliminate tumors. Mettl14-deficient C1q+ TAMs show a decreased m6A abundance on and a higher level of transcripts of Ebi3, a cytokine subunit. In addition, neutralization of EBI3 leads to reinvigoration of dysfunctional CD8+ T cells and overcomes immunosuppressive impact in mice. We show that the METTL14-m6A levels are negatively correlated with dysfunctional T cell levels in patients with colorectal cancer, supporting the clinical relevance of this regulatory pathway. Thus, our study demonstrates how an m6A methyltransferase in TAMs promotes CD8+ T cell dysfunction and tumor progression.

Glycolysis induced by METTL14-related m6A methylation is essential for macrophage phagocytosis and phenotype in cervical cancer

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant mRNA modification in mammals and it plays a vital role in various biological processes. However, the roles of m6A on cervical cancer tumorigenesis, especially macrophages infiltrated in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of cervical cancer, are still unclear. We analyzed the abnormal m6A methylation in cervical cancer, using CaSki and THP-1 cell lines, that might influence macrophages' polarization and/or function. In addition, C57bl-6j and Balb/c-nude mice were used for validation in vivo In this study, MeRIP-Seq analysis revealed the m6A profiles in cervical cancer. Then, we discovered the high expression of METTL14 (methyltransferase 14, N6-adenosine-methyltransferase subunit) in cervical cancer tissues can promote the proportion of PD-1 positive tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which have an obstacle to devour tumor cells. Functional, changes of METTL14 in cervical cancer inhibits the recognition and phagocytosis of macrophages to tumor cells. Mechanistically, the abnormality of METTL14 could target the glycolysis of tumor in vivo and vitro. Moreover, lactate acid produced by tumor glycolysis has an important role in the PD-1 expression of TAMs as a proinflammatory and immunosuppressive mediator. The study revealed the effect of glycolysis regulated by METTL14-related methylation on the expression of PD-1 and phagocytosis of macrophages, which showed that METTL14 was a potential therapeutic target for treating advanced human cancers.

Identification and Characterization of the Mammalian Nuclear RNA N6-Adenosine Methyltransferase Core Complex

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification found in mammalian messenger and non-coding RNAs. The discoveries of functionally significant demethylases that reverse this methylation as well as the recently revealed m6A distributions in mammalian transcriptomes strongly indicate regulatory functions of this modification. Here we report the identification and characterization of the mammalian nuclear RNA N6-adenosine methyltransferase core (RNMTC) complex. Besides METTL3, a methyltransferase which was the only known component of RNMTC in the past, we discovered that a previously uncharacterized methyltransferase, METTL14, exhibits a N6-adenosine methyltransferase activity higher than METTL3. Together with WTAP, the third component that dramatically affects the cellular m6A level, these three proteins form the core complex that orchestrates m6A deposition on mammalian nuclear RNA. Biochemistry assays, imaging experiments, as well as transcriptome-wide analyses of the binding sites and their effects on m6A methylation support methylation function and reveal new insights of RNMTC.

m6A independent genome-wide METTL3 and METTL14 redistribution drives senescence-associated secretory phenotype [RNA-seq]

Project description:Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) and 14 (METTL14) are core subunits of the methyltransferase complex (MTC) that catalyzes mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. Despite the expanding list of m6A-dependent function of the MTC, m6A independent function of the METTL3 and METTL14 complex remains poorly understood. Here we show that genome-wide redistribution of METTL3 and METTL14 drives senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in a m6A-independent manner. METTL3 and METTL14 are necessary for SASP. However, SASP is not regulated by m6A mRNA modification. METTL14 is redistributed to the enhancers, while METTL3 is localized to the pre-existing NF-B sites within the promoters of the SASP genes during senescence. METTL3 interacts with NF-B and they are mutually dependent on their associations with the promoters of SASP genes. METTL14 but not METTL3 is necessary for function of SASP gene enhancers. METTL3 and METTL14 are required for both the tumor-promoting and immune surveillance functions of senescent cells mediated by SASP in vivo in mouse models. In summary, our results report a m6A independent function of the METTL3 and METTL14 complex in promoting SASP through regulating transcription by genome-wide redistribution of METTL14 to enhancers and METTL3 to promoters of SASP genes during senescence.

Mettl14 is required for mouse postimplantation development by facilitating epiblast maturation

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent and reversible internal modification of mammalian messenger and noncoding RNAs mediated by specificm6A writer, reader, and eraser proteins. As an m6A writer, the methyltransferase-like 3-methyltransferase–like 14 (METTL14)–Wilms tumor 1–associated protein complex dynamically regulates m6A modification and plays important roles in diverse biologic processes. However, our knowledge about the complete functions of this RNA methyltransferase complex, the contributions of each componenttothemethylation, andtheir effects on different biologicpathways are still limited. By using both in vivo and in vitro models, we here report that METTL14 is indispensable for postimplantation embryonic development by facilitating the conversion from naive to primed state of the epiblast. Depletion of Mettl14 leads to conspicuous embryonic growth retardation from embryonic d 6.5, mainly as a result of resistanceto differentiation, which further leads to embryonic lethality early in gestation. Our data highlight the critical function of METTL14 as an m6A modification regulator in orchestrating early mouse embryogenesis.

Profiling of N6-methyladenosine in HepG2 cells: SETD2, METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown and control cells

Project description:SETD2 is the specific methyltransferase of H3K36me3, while METTL3, METTL14 and WTAP are the components of m6A methyltransferase complex. To understand the global effect of H3K36me3 on m6A modification, we compared the m6A profiling in SETD2 and METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown HepG2 cells, and found depletion of H3K36me3 by SETD2 silencing globally reduced m6A in human transcriptome. What’s more, most of the SETD2-dependent hypomethylation sites also responded to knockdown of METTL3, METTL14, or WTAP.

Tumor associated macrophages-programmed core immunosuppressive microenvironments via Galectin-1 in breast cancer

Project description:There has been considerable interest in therapeutic targeting of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) mainly by depleting or repolarizing them toward anti-tumoral phenotypes. However, a core mediator co-opted for TAMs-mediated remodeling of tumor microenvironment remains poorly understood. Here, to dissect TAMs-mediated early microenvironment, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of TAMs-enriched and -depleted mouse breast tumor at the early stages of progression, before detectable change in tumor growth appeared. We found that early intratumoral accumulation of TAMs endowed cancer cells with invasive properties to promote early dissemination and dampened antitumoral T cell responses. Accordingly, TAMs-depleted tumor using clodronate displayed a decreased epithelial-to mesenchymal transition (EMT) signature of cancer cells and harbored a distinct transcriptome associated with CD8+ T cells activation. Furthermore, we identified a role of Galectin-1 (Gal-1) as a molecular checkpoint in TAMs-induced CD8+ T cell exhaustion. Gal-1 inhibition reversed immune suppression via reinvigoration of CD8+ T cells, thus impairing tumor growth and boosting the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor in a breast tumor model. These results provide a comprehensive insight into the early-programmed microenvironment by TAMs and reveal an immune evasion mechanism that could be targeted by Gal-1 to unleash antitumor immune responses.
