YTHDF2/m6A/NF-κB axis controls anti-tumor immunity by regulating intratumoral Tregs

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in messenger RNA (mRNA) regulates immune cells in homeostasis and in response to infection and inflammation. The function of the m6A reader YTHDF2 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) in these contexts has not been explored. We discovered that the loss of YTHDF2 in regulatory T (Treg) cells reduces tumor growth in mice. Deletion of Ythdf2 in Tregs does not affect peripheral immune homeostasis but leads to increased apoptosis and impaired suppressive function of Treg cells in the TME. Elevated tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling in the TME promotes YTHDF2 expression, which in turn regulates NF-κB signaling by accelerating the degradation of m6 A-modified transcripts that encode NF-κB-negative regulators. This TME-specific regulation of Treg by YTHDF2 points to YTHDF2 as a potential target for anti-cancer immunotherapy, where intratumoral Treg cells can be targeted to enhance anti-tumor immune response while avoiding Treg cells in the periphery to minimize undesired inflammations.

YTHDF2-m6A-NF-kB axis controls anti-tumor immunity through regulating intratumoral Treg survival and function

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in messenger RNA (mRNA) regulates immune cells in homeostasis and in response to infection and inflammation. The function of YTHDF2 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) in these contexts has not been explored. We discovered that loss of Ythdf2 in regulatory T (Treg) cells can reduce tumor growth in mice while maintaining peripheral homeostasis. In the tumor microenvironment, Ythdf2-deficient Treg cells have impaired function and poor survival. The elevated tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling in the TME grants the location-specific function of YTHDF2, which participates in the feedback regulation of NF-kB signaling by accelerating the degradation of m6A-modified, NF-kB negative regulators, Nlrc3, Nfkbie, and Traf3. TME-specific regulation of Treg by YTHDF2 points to YTHDF2 as a target for anti-cancer immunotherapy, where intratumoral Treg cells can be targeted to enhance antitumor immune response, while avoiding Treg cells in the periphery to minimize undesired inflammations.

YTHDF2 inhibition potentiates radiotherapy by reprogramming suppressive myeloid cells [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is implicated in cancer progression. However, the impact of m6A on the antitumor effects of radiotherapy and the related mechanisms are unknown. Here we show that ionizing radiation (IR) induces immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) expansion and YTHDF2 expression in both murine models and humans. Following IR, loss of Ythdf2 in myeloid cells augments antitumor immunity and overcomes tumor radioresistance by altering MDSC differentiation and inhibiting MDSC infiltration and suppressive function. The remodeling of the landscape of MDSC populations by local IR is reversed by Ythdf2 deficiency. IR-induced YTHDF2 expression relies on NF-κB signaling; YTHDF2 in turn leads to NF-κB activation by directly binding and degrading transcripts encoding negative regulators of NF-κB signaling, resulting in an IR-YTHDF2-NF-κB circuit. Pharmacological inhibition of YTHDF2 overcomes MDSC-induced immunosuppression and improves combined IR and/or anti-PD-L1 treatment. Thus, YTHDF2 is a promising target to improve radiotherapy (RT) and RT/immunotherapy combinations.

Targeting the RNA m6A reader YTHDF2 in tumor-associated macrophages shapes tumor immunity and immunotherapy

Project description:The presence of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) affects cancer progression and immunotherapy response. The RNA m6A methylation, an epigenetic modification, has recently been found to play a pivotal role in shaping the TME. However, the role and underlying mechanisms by which RNA m6A methylation regulates TAMs function and anti-tumor immunity remain elusive. Here we show that depletion of YTHDF2, a well-known m6A reader, in TAMs suppresses tumor growth and metastasis. Myeloid YTHDF2 deficiency reprograms TAMs to anti-tumorigenic type and increases their cross-presentation ability, thereby enhancing CD8+T cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity. Transcriptome-wide screening identifies YTHDF2 deficiency facilitates anti-tumorigenic TAMs reprogramming through targeting IFN-γSTAT1 signaling. Selectively targeting YTHDF2 in TAMs using toll-like receptor 9 agonist - conjugated small interfering RNA against YTHDF2 effectively promotes anti-tumor immunity, restrains tumor growth, and enhances the efficacy of anti-PD-L1 therapy. Together, our findings suggest that YTHDF2 in TAMs might be a promising therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy.

Integrated multiomics profiling identifies the differentiation program of regulatory T cells in human tumors [bulk ATAC-seq]

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells suppress effective antitumor immunity in tumor-bearing hosts, thereby becoming promising targets in cancer immunotherapy. Here, we show that Treg cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of human lung cancers harbor a completely different open chromatin profile compared to effector T cells and peripheral Treg cells. The integrative sequencing analyses revealed that BATF, IRF4, NF-κb, and NR4A were important transcription factors for Treg cell differentiation in the TME. Particularly, BATF was identified as a key regulator, which leveraged Treg cell differentiation through epigenetically controlling activation-associated gene expression, resulting in the robustness of Treg cells in the TME. BATF deficiency in Treg cells remarkably inhibited tumor growth and high BATF expression was associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer, kidney cancer, and melanoma. Our results propose the specific chromatin remodeling and differentiation program of Treg cells in the TME, which can be applied in the development of Treg cell-targeted therapies.
