Dietary methionine restriction impairs anti-tumor immunity through gut microbiota

ABSTRACT: Dietary methionine restriction represses growth and improves therapeutic responses in several pre-clinical settings. However, how this dietary intervention impacts cancer progression in the context of the immune system is unknown. Here we analyzed the CD45+ immune cells from the small intestine of control (CTRL) diet or methionine-restricted (MR) diet fed tumor-free C57BL/6J donor mice and tumor-bearing Apc recipient mice transplanated with feces from these diet-fed tumor-free C57BL/6J mice by scRNA-seq. Our analysis indicate that fecal microbes from methionine-restricted tumor-free C57BL/6J mice are sufficient to represss T cell activation in the small intestine of Apc mice.
