Blockade of histamine receptor H1 augments immune checkpoint therapy by enhancing MHC-I expression in pancreatic cancer cells

ABSTRACT: Although immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has proven to be extremely effective in managing certain cancers, its efficacy in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains limited. Previous studies have indicated that histamine and histamine receptor H1 (HRH1) can suppress immunity by affecting immune cells. This study uncovered an unexplored role of HRH1 intrinsic to tumor cells in PDAC. When HRH1 specific to tumor cells was inhibited in PDAC mouse models, there was a noticeable increase in MHC-I expression in these cells via the activation of cholesterol biosynthesis signaling. This augmented the infiltration and efficacy of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, synergizing anticancer immunity and mitigating resistance to ICB treatment. Our results highlight that HRH1 plays an immunosuppressive role in cancer cells. Consequently, HRH1 intervention may be a promising method to amplify the responsiveness of PDAC to immunotherapy.

Allergic mediator histamine confers immunotherapy resistance in cancer patients via histamine receptor 1 on macrophage

Project description:How to revive anti-tumor immunity in cancer patients is an unmet challenge. Retrospective screening of common medications revealed that patients who took antihistamines during immunotherapy treatment had significantly improved survival. We further uncovered that histamine and histamine receptor H1 (HRH1) are frequently increased in tumor microenvironment to cause T-cell dysfunction. HRH1 activation in macrophages inhibits proinflammatory signaling and dysregulates fatty acid metabolism. HRH1 also increases membrane expression of immune checkpoint V-domain Ig suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA) in macrophages, which renders CD8+ T-cells dysfunctional. Knockout HRH1 or antihistamine treatment negated the immunosuppressive activity of the macrophages, revitalized T-cell cytotoxic function, and restored immunotherapy response. Both animal and human data showed that allergy facilitated tumor growth and induced immunotherapy resistance via histamine/HRH1 axis, underscoring the tumor-p rone activity of allergy. These findings demonstrate that pre-existing allergy in cancer patients can dampen response to immunotherapies and warrant perspective investigation of antihistamines as an adjuvant agent for combinatorial immunotherapy.

Smoking-induced Reprogramming of Histamine Metabolism Genes in the Human Small Airway Epithelium

Project description:Smoking is associated with increased airway histamine responsiveness and elevated histamine levels. Transcript levels of histidine decarboxylase (HDC; histamine synthesis) and histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT; histamine degradation) were evaluated in small airway epithelial (SAE) cells obtained from smokers or non-smokers. Histamine+ SAE cells increased in smokers compared to nonsmokers (p< 0.03). HDC transcript levels were elevated in smokers compared with non-smokers when comparing both bulk RNA from SAE (p< 0.03) and single cell HDC transcripts in mast cells (p<10-6). Elevated HDC transcript levels in mast cells corre-lated with elevated IL33 transcript levels in smoker SAE basal cells, and elevated transcript levels of the IL33 receptor, IL1RL1, in mast cells. In contrast to HDC, transcript levels of HNMT were decreased (p<10-4) in smoker SAE. Significant decreases in HNMT transcript levels were found broadly across SAE differentiated cell types. An in vitro SAE culture model treated with cigarette smoke extract reduced HNMT transcript levels (p<0.05). Together, the data suggests that smoking results in an accumulation of mast cells, elevated expression of histamine-synthesizing mast cell HDC, and a decrease in histamine-degrading HNMT transcript levels broadly in the epithelium. These smoking induced changes are likely contributors to elevated histamine levels in the airways of smokers.

Placental Gene Expression in Response to Histamine and Oxygen

Project description:Maternal Blood histamine levels are tightly controlled in normal pregnancy. However, in specific complications of human pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia the levels of both placental and maternal blood histamine increase. Increasing blood histamine levels nonetheless, have been associated with oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, abnormal tissue growth, and Th1/TH2 imbalance, which are also linked to pre-eclampsia. Little is known of the molecular responses in the placenta to the prolonged exposure to increasing histamine levels in the presence of changing oxygen concentrations. We used microarray to detail the global programme of placental gene expression in response to histamine and oxygen and identified distinct classes of regulated genes underlying the molecular functions of histamine in the placenta.

RNA-seq of Histamine stimulated HUVECs infected with shNT or shH1R

Project description:To investigate the mechanism of histamine H1 receptor (H1R)- mediated proliferation and angiogenesis of endothelial cells, mRNA profiles of HUVEC cells transduced with shNT or shH1R under histamine treatment for 9 hrs were generated by deep sequencing, in replicate, using Illumina GAIIx. We identified the upregulation of genes in several pathways including angiogenesis, proliferation and migration that could be responsible for the increased tube formation in histamine treated shNT expressing HUVEC cells

Translation State Array Analysis of Histamine Stimulated Human Endothelial Cells

Project description:Confluent human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were exposed to histamine (100 mM) for 2 hours. Ribosomal profiling via gradient centrifugation and fractionation was used to separate monosome, or under-translated, and polysome, or actively translated, mRNA species that were then used to probe cDNA arrays, a process known as Translation State Array Analysis (TSAA). Four samples were obtained from these experiments, control monosome, control polysome, histamine monosome and histamine polysome. Using the normalized signal intensities from the GeneFilters, we calculated a translation index, or measure of movement of an mRNA molecule from the monosome to the polysome fraction upon stimulation. This calculation was made as follows: (histamine polysome/histamine monosome)/(control polysome/control monosome). Translational indices greater than 2.5 (upregulated) or lower than 0.4 (downregulated) were chosen for further study. Keywords: Translation State Array Analysis

Non-targeted metabolomics screen comparing metabolite profiles of serum from PDAC-bearing mice that received metronidazole using high-resolution, high-performance LC-MS/MS analysis.

Project description:The composition of the gut microbiome controls innate and adaptive immunity and has emerged as a key regulator of tumor growth and the success of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tends to be refractory to therapy, including ICB. We found that the gut microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) enhances anti-tumor immunity to PDAC. Delivery of TMAO given intraperitoneally or via dietary choline supplement to PDAC-bearing mice reduces tumor growth and is associated with an immunostimulatory tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) phenotype and activated effector T cell response in the tumor microenvironment. Mechanistically, TMAO signals through potentiating type-I interferon (IFN) pathway and confers anti-tumor effects in a type-I IFN dependent manner. Notably, delivering TMAOprimed macrophages alone produced similar anti-tumor effects. Combining TMAO with ICB (anti-PD1 and/or anti-Tim3) significantly reduced tumor burden and improved survival beyond TMAO or ICB alone. Finally, the levels of trimethylamine (TMA)- producing bacteria and of CutC gene expression correlate with improved survivorship and response to anti-PD1 in cancer patients. Together, our study identifies the gut microbial metabolite TMAO as an important driver of anti-tumor immunity and lays the groundwork for new therapeutic strategies.
