Project description:HEK-Blue™ ISG Cells and HEK-Blue™ ISG-KO-STING Cells (Invivogen) were transfected with dacA (Listeria monocytogenes) for 12 and 24 hours. Through this approach, we described the STING-dependent and STING-independent transcriptional response to dacA. Our analysis reveals a STING-dependent enrichment of interferon stimulated genes beginning 12 hours post-transfection, and a STING-independent enrichment of genes associated with protein translation and oxidative phosphorylation.

Project description:Chronic stimulation of innate immune pathways by microbial agents or damaged tissue is known to promote inflammation-driven tumorigenesis by unclarified mechanisms1-3. Here we demonstrate that mutagenic 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA), etoposide or cisplatin induces nuclear DNA leakage into the cytosol to intrinsically activate STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) dependent cytokine production. Inflammatory cytokine levels were subsequently augmented in a STING-dependent extrinsic manner by infiltrating phagocytes purging dying cells. Consequently, STING-/- mice, or wild type mice adoptively transferred with STING-/- bone marrow, were almost completely resistant to DMBA-induced skin carcinogenesis compared to their wild type counterparts. Our data emphasizes, for the first time, a role for STING in the induction of cancer, sheds significant insight into the causes of inflammation-driven carcinogenesis, and may provide therapeutic strategies to help prevent malignant disease Total RNA obtained from wild type murine embryonic fibroblasts (WT MEFs), STING deficient MEFs (SKO), Trex1 deficient MEFs (TKO), and both STING and Trex1 deficient MEFs (STKO) treated with DMBA and examined cytokine production by these cells.

Project description:Activation of the STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) pathway by microbial or self-DNA, as well as cyclic di nucleotides (CDN), results in the induction of numerous genes that suppress pathogen replication and facilitate adaptive immunity. However, sustained gene transcription is rigidly prevented to avoid lethal STING-dependent pro-inflammatory disease by mechanisms that remain unknown. We demonstrate here that after autophagy-dependent STING delivery of TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) to endosomal/lysosomal compartments and activation of transcription factors IRF3 (interferon regulatory factors 3) and NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa beta), that STING is subsequently phosphorylated by serine/threonine UNC-51-like kinase (ULK1/ATG1) and IRF3 function is suppressed. ULK1 activation occurred following disassociation from its repressor adenine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), and was elicited by CDN’S generated by the cGAMP synthase, cGAS. Thus, while CDN’s may initially facilitate STING function, they subsequently trigger negative-feedback control of STING activity, thus preventing the persistent transcription of innate immune genes. Total RNA obtained from primary STING deficient mouse embryonic fibroblast reconstituted with mSTING (W), S365A variant (A), or S365D variant (D). These cells were transfected with dsDNA (ISD) for 3 hours.

Project description:Metastatic relapse frequently develops from disseminated cancer cells that remain dormant in distant organs after the apparently successful treatment of a primary tumor. Disseminated cancer cells fluctuate between immune evasive quiescent and cell cycle reentry states, which exposes them to elimination by the immune system. Little is known about the molecules that determine immune-mediated clearing of awakened metastatic cells and how this process could be therapeutically activated to eliminate residual disseminated disease in patients. Here, we use models of indolent metastasis to identify cancer cell-intrinsic determinants of immune reactivity during cancer cell exit from dormancy. Through in vivo genetic screens of tumor-intrinsic immune regulators, we identified the STING (stimulator of interferon genes) pathway as a suppressor of metastatic outbreak in dormant models of human and mouse lung adenocarcinoma metastasis. STING levels and signaling activity rise in metastatic progenitors that reenter the cell cycle and are dampened by STING enhancer hypermethylation in breakthrough metastases or enhancer chromatin repression in cells reentering dormancy in response to TGF-β. STING expression in cancer cells from spontaneous metastases suppresses their outgrowth in a NK cell- and CD8+ T cell-dependent manner. Systemic treatment of mice with pharmacologic STING agonists eliminates indolent metastatic cells and prevents spontaneous metastasis, both effects requiring cancer cell STING function. Thus, STING signaling represents a checkpoint against the progression of dormant metastasis and suggests a therapeutically actionable strategy for the prevention of disease relapse.

Project description:Two murine melanoma models (B16 and BPR) were treated with PBS or STING agonist ADU-S100 in vivo. Dose 1 was administered intratumorally on day 10, and a second dose was given on day 14. Tumors were collected 6 hours after the second dose and RNA was isolated. RNA was run on the Nanostring mouse PanCancer Immune Profiling Panel.

Project description:STING gain-of-function (GOF) mutations lead to T cell lymphopenia, in the context of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) for STING GOF V154M mice. This T cell lymphopenia, which is of central origin, has been described as type I IFN independent and associated with dysfunctions of the rare mature T cells found in the periphery. To better describe the biological mechanisms of these dysfunctions, we performed a transcriptomic analysis by RNA-seq on sorted splenic CD4+ and CD8+ mature T cells from STING GOF mice. We highlighted an unexpected T cell exhaustion phenotype that could partly explain their dysfunctions. Acquired very early in life, but only once the peripheral environment is reached, the phenotype appeared to depend neither on type I IFNs, nor on the intrinsic activation of STING in T or stromal cells. Mechanistically, the few mature T cells reaching the periphery seem to be rapidly impacted by the lymphopenic environment through increased antigenic and IL-7 stimulations that could lead to their exhaustion. By using STING GOF long term-hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) transplantations with supportive wild-type bone marrow (BM) cells, we prevented the T cell exhaustion of STING GOF T cells in the resulting non lymphopenic context. With the support of lymphopenic RAG1 hypomorphic mice developing the phenotype, our data uncover a lymphopenia-mediated T cell exhaustion mechanism in STING GOF mice, for which a synergistic effect of the mutation is also envisaged.

Project description:Inflammatory diseases such as Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome (AGS) and severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are generally lethal disorders that have been traced to defects in the exonuclease Trex1 (DNAseIII). Mice lacking Trex1 similarly die at an early age through comparable symptoms, including inflammatory myocarditis, through chronic activation of the STING (stimulator of interferon genes) pathway. Here we demonstrate that phagocytes rather than myocytes are predominantly responsible for causing inflammation, an outcome that could be alleviated following adoptive transfer of normal bone marrow into Trex1-/- mice. Trex1-/- macrophages did not exhibit significant augmented ability to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to normal macrophages following exposure to STING-dependent activators, but rather appeared chronically stimulated by genomic DNA. These results shed molecular insight into inflammation and provide concepts for the design of new therapies.
