DRG2 is required for cell surface localization of PD-L1 in melanoma cells and optimum response to anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Tumors expressing high level of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) ligand 1 (PD-L1) are more likely to respond to immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) targeting PD-1 or PD-L1. However, more than half of tumor patients with high PD-L1 expression does not respond to ICBs and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be clarified. Here we show that depletion of developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 2 (DRG2) inhibited recycling of endosomal PD-L1 and reduced surface PD-L1 level in melanoma cells. DRG2-depleted cells showed decreased binding with recombinant PD-1. Although DRG2-depleted cells expressed high levels of PD-L1, anti-PD-1 ICB did not activate T cells within DRG2-depleted tumors and failed to improve the survival of DRG2-depleted tumor-bearing mice. Cohort analysis of melanoma patients under anti-PD-1 treatment revealed that patients bearing tumors with high DRG2 protein level were more sensitive to PD-1 anti-PD-1 ICBs. These findings identify DRG2 as a regulator of recycling of endosomal PD-L1 and a key determinant for response to anti-PD-1 ICB and provide insights into how to increase the correlation between PD-L1 expression and response to ICB.

DRG2 is required for cell surface localization of PD-L1 in melanoma cells and optimum response to anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade [bulk RNA-seq]

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.

The CD58:CD2 axis is co-regulated with PD-L1 via CMTM6 and shapes anti-tumor immunity

Project description:The cell-autonomous balance of immune-inhibitory and -stimulatory signals is a critical process in cancer immune evasion. Using patient-derived co-cultures, humanized mouse models, and single cell RNA-sequencing of patient melanomas biopsied before and on immune checkpoint blockade, we find that intact cancer-cell-intrinsic expression of CD58 and ligation to CD2 is required for anti-tumor immunity and is predictive of treatment response. Defects in this axis promote immune evasion through diminished T cell activation, impaired intratumoral T cell infiltration and proliferation, and concurrently increased PD-L1 protein stabilization. Through CRISPR-Cas9 and proteomics screens, we identify and validate CMTM6 as critical for CD58 maintenance and upregulation of PD-L1 upon CD58 loss. Competition by CD58 and PD-L1 for CMTM6 (via both extracellular loop domains) determines their rate of endosomal recycling over lysosomal degradation. Overall, we describe an underappreciated yet critical axis of cancer immunity and provide a molecular basis for how cancer cells balance immune inhibitory and stimulatory cues.

Gene Expression profile for the characterization of PD-L1 blockade in melanoma model

Project description:Only a subset of patients responds to immune checkpoint blockade in melanoma. A preclinical model recapitulating the clinical activity of ICB would provide a valuable platform for mechanistic studies. We used melanoma tumors arising from an Hgftg;Cdk4R24C/R24C genetically engineered mouse (GEM) model to evaluate the efficacy of an anti-mouse PD-L1 antibody similar to the anti-human PD-L1 antibodies durvalumab and atezolizumab. Consistent with clinical observations for ICB in melanoma, anti-PD-L1 treatment elicited complete and durable response in a subset of melanoma-bearing mice. We also observed tumor growth delay or regression followed by recurrence. For early treatment assessment, we analyzed gene expression profiles, T cell infiltration, and T cell receptor (TCR) signatures in regressing tumors compared to tumors exhibiting no response to anti-PD-L1 treatment. We found that CD8+ T cell tumor infiltration corresponded to response to treatment, and that anti-PD-L1 gene signature response indicated an increase in antigen processing and presentation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity. TCR sequence data suggest that an anti-PD-L1-mediated melanoma regression response requires not only an expansion of the TCR repertoire that is unique to individual mice, but also tumor access to the appropriate TCRs. Thus, this melanoma model recapitulated the variable response to ICB observed in patients and exhibited biomarkers that differentiate between early response and resistance to treatment, providing a valuable platform for prediction of successful immunotherapy.

Inhibition of MAN2A1 enhances tumor response to anti-PD-L1

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has shown remarkable efficacy, but in only a minority of cancer patients, suggesting the need to develop additional treatment strategies.We integrated transcriptional profiles of treatment-naïve human tumors and functional CRISPR screens to identify glycometabolism genes with immunomodulatory effects. We identified MAN2A1, encoding an enzyme in N-glycan maturation, as a key immunomodulatory gene. Analyses of public immune checkpoint blockade trial data also suggested a synergy between MAN2A1 inhibition and anti-PD-L1 treatment. Loss of Man2a1 in cancer cells increased their sensitivity to T cell-mediated killing. Man2a1 knockout enhanced response to anti-PD-L1 treatment and facilitated higher cytotoxic T cell infiltration in tumors under anti-PD-L1 treatment. Furthermore, a pharmacological inhibitor of MAN2A1, swainsonine, synergized with anti-PD-L1 in syngeneic melanoma tumor model, whereas each treatment alone had little effect.

Gene-expression profiles of PD-L1-affected CD8+ T cells

Project description:Programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is known to suppress immune system and to be an unfavorable prognostic factor in ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the function of PD-L1 in peritoneal dissemination. Tumor cell lysis by CTLs was attenuated when PD-L1 on tumor cells was overexpressed and promoted when it was silenced. PD-L1 overexpression also inhibited gathering and degranulation of CTLs. Gene expression profile of mouse CTLs caused by PD-L1-overexpressing ovarian cancer was related to human CTLs exhaustion. In mouse ovarian cancer dissemination models, depleting PD-L1 expression on tumor cells resulted in inhibited tumor growth in the peritoneal cavity and prolonged survival. Restoring immune function by inhibiting immune-suppressive factors such as PD-L1 may be a promising therapeutic strategy for peritoneal dissemination. Genome-wide transcriptional changes in OT-1 mouse CD8+ T cells that were co-incubated with OVA peptide-loaded ID8 mouse ovarian cancer cell lines. CTLs from 4 mice were devided into 2 groups, and co-incubated with PD-L1-overexpressed ID8 or PD-L1-depleted ID8.

Role of B cells in generating anti-melanoma immunity in response to anti-PD-L1 antibody therapy

Project description:B cells potentially play a role in the immune response to melanoma, including during treatment with immune modulators. We profiled (transcriptome analysis) effects of anti-PD-L1 antibody therapy on gene expression in B16 melanoma tumors of B cells depleted and WT syngeneic mice. After 7 days of B16 tumors implantation, mice were treated or untreated with anti-PD-L1 antibody (every three days).

Expression data in PD-L1 positive and PD-L1 negative human melanoma samples

Project description:Blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 immunosuppressive pathway has shown promise in the treatment of certain cancers including melanoma. This study investigates differences in the gene expression profiles of human melanomas that do or do not display the immunosuppressive protein PD-L1. Further understanding of genes expressed within the tumor microenvironment of PD-L1+ tumors may lead to improved rationally designed treatments. Gene expression profiling was performed on total RNA extracted by laser capture microdissection from 11 archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) melanoma specimens, 5 of which were PD-L1 positive and 6 PD-L1 negative. Details of the design, and the gene signatures found are given in the paper associated with this GEO Series: Janis M. Taube, Geoffrey D. Young, Tracee L. McMiller, Shuming Chen, January T. Salas, Theresa S. Pritchard, Haiying Xu, Alan K. Meeker, Jinshui Fan, Chris Cheadle, Alan E. Berger, Drew M. Pardoll, and Suzanne L.

LC-MS characterization of anti-PD-L1 and CXCR4 bispecific nanobodies

Project description:Antibodies and derivative drugs targeting immune checkpoints have been approved for the treatment of several malignancies, but there are fewer responses in patients with pancreatic cancer. Here, we designed a nanobody molecule with bi-targeting on PD-L1 and CXCR4, as both targets are overexpressed in many cancer cells and play important roles in tumorigenesis. The nanobody sequences targeting PD-L1 and CXCR4 were linked by the (G4S)3 flexible peptide to construct the anti-PD-L1/CXCR4 bispecific nanobody. The bispecific nanobody was expressed in E. coli cells and purified by affinity chromatography. The purified nanobody was biochemically characterized by mass spectrometry, Western blotting and flow cytometry to confirm the molecule and its association with both PD-L1 and CXCR4. The biological function of the nanobody and its anti-tumour effects were examined.
