Project description:Central memory tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells confer superior antitumor immunity compared to effector memory T cells

Project description:Cellular senescence is a stress response known to activate innate immunity. However, how senescent cells interact with the adaptive immune system remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that senescent cells display an enhanced MHC class I antigen processing and presentation. Furthermore, senescent cells present an altered immunopeptidome including unique non-mutated antigens that can be recognized by specific CD8 T cells. Immunization of mice with senescent cancer cells triggers strong protective CD8-dependent antitumor responses, superior to immunogenic cell death. Similarly, induction of senescence in human primary cancer cells hyperactivates their cognate reactive CD8 T cell. Our study indicates that immunization with senescent cells provides a sustained source of antigens that strongly activate anti-tumor CD8 T cells.

Project description:T cell antigen-receptor (TCR) and cytokine receptor engagement trigger large changes in Serine/Threonine kinase signalling networks to drive T cell activation and differentiation. The role of only few kinase signalling pathways have been studied in detail, and in this context, Pim kinases are an interesting, yet understudied, family of Serine/Threonine kinases, with reported roles in key processes including survival, proliferation, metabolism across a range of cell types. T lymphocytes predominantly express PIM1 and PIM2, which are rapidly induced by TCR, costimulation and cytokine signalling. Using high-resolution mass spectrometry and RNAseq we systematically examine the impact of Pim1/Pim2 double deficiency on in vitro differentiated cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) expanded in the cytokines IL-2 and IL-15 to generate effector or memory T cells respectively. We find that Pim kinases are dispensable for IL-15-driven memory cell differentiation, but that Pim1/2-deficiency has a selective impact on the transcriptome and proteome of IL-2 driven effector CD8 T cells. ~75% of Pim kinase-regulated proteins were not predicted by differences in mRNA in IL-2 expanded CTL. These included proteins that are key for effector cell function: glucose transporters SLC2A1 and SLC2A3 and key effector molecules Granzyme A and B. We find that Pim kinases have this effect via control of protein translation. Another key finding was that the mRNA for key T cell homing receptors Ccr7, S1pr1 and CD62L was increased in Pim1/2-deficienct T cells and that this functionally enhancing homing to secondary lymphoid organs.

Project description:The expansion, trafficking and functional effectiveness of adoptively transferred CD8+ T-cells play a critical role in mediating effective anti-tumor immunity. However, the mechanisms which program the highly proliferative and functional state of CD8+ T-cells are not completely understood. We hypothesized that IL-12, a cytokine commonly induced by TLR activation, could enhance T-cell priming by altering responsiveness to antigen and cytokines. Priming of tumor specific CD8+ T-cells in the presence of IL-12 induced the acquisition of a 'polyfunctional' effector response and increased the generation of memory cells. Moreover, IL-12 priming also promoted high levels of the IL-2 receptor alpha-chain (CD25) and robust IL-2 mediated activation of STAT5. This sensitivity to IL-2 translated into enhanced in vivo proliferation of adoptively transferred CD8+ T-cells. Furthermore, real-time, in vivo imaging of T-cell trafficking confirmed the ability of IL-12 priming to drive in vivo proliferation. IL-12 priming enhanced the anti-tumor function of adoptively transferred cells by reducing established subcutaneous tumor burden, and significantly increasing survival in an established intracranial tumor model. Finally, IL-12 priming of human PBMCs generates tumor specific T-cells phenotypically and functionally similar to IL-12 primed Pmel-1 T-cells. These results highlight IL-12 as an important mediator of CD8+ T-cell effector function and anti-tumor immunity. We primed Pmel-1 TCR transgenic CD8+ T-cells with cognate antigen and either IL-2 or IL-12 and compared their gene expression profiles. This was used to identify pathways or genes necessary for anti-tumor activity in vivo. RNA was isolated from Pmel-1 T-cells primed with antigen and cytokine for 6 days and hybridized to Affymetrix arrays.

Project description:Poor immune reconstitution following haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can cause unwanted and harmful sequelae in recipients with chronic cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying poor reconstitution, we profiled the transcriptome-chromatin accessibility landscape of CMV-specific CD8+ memory lymphocytes from HCST recipients with different reconstitution efficiencies. Although the transcriptional and epigenomic signatures in non-reactive lymphocytes were not naïve or classic ‘exhaustion’ profiles, some gene expression was common to lymphocytes from other non-resolving infections. Reactive lymphocytes expressed higher levels of interferon/defence response and cell cycle genes in an interconnected network involving PI3KCG, STAT5B, NFAT, RBPJ, and NR3C1, increasing chromatin accessibility at the enhancer regions of immune and T cell receptor signalling pathway genes. We propose that increased HDAC6 expression in non-reactive lymphocytes decreases accessibility at particular enhancers including PI3KCG. Non-reactive cells also expressed higher levels of EGR and KLF factors that, along with lower expression of JARID2, maintained higher accessibility at promoter and CpG-rich regions of genes associated with apoptosis. Together, transcription factors and chromatin modulators create a different chromatin accessibility landscape in reactive and non-reactive cells that not only affects immediate gene expression but differentially primes the cells for responses to additional signals.

Project description:T cell rejuvenation by PD-1/PD-L1 blockade, despite emerging as a highly promising therapy for advanced cancers, is only beneficial for a minority of treated patients. There is evidence that a lack of efficient T cell activation may be responsible for the failure. Here, we demonstrate that IL-21 can be targeted to tumor-reactive T cells by fusion of IL-21 to anti-PD-1 antibody. To our surprise, the fusion protein PD-1Ab21 promoted the generation of TSCM-like CD8+ T cells with enhanced cell proliferation. A transcriptome analysis of isolated TN, activated and PD-1Ab-cultured CD44highCD62Lhigh T cells, IL-2-generated TE/TEM, IL-15-generated TCM as well as PD-1Ab21 and IL-21-generated CD44lowCD62Lhigh T cells provides corroborating evidence that PD-1Ab21 induces conversion of activated CD8+ T cells back to a memory subset that is distinct from TCM cells, but similar to TSCM. PD-1Ab21 treatment showed potent antitumor effects in established tumor-bearing mice accompanied with an increased frequency of TSCM and robust expansion of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells with a memory phenotype, and was superior to a combination of PD-1 blockade and IL-21 infusion. Therefore, we have developed a potential strategy to improve the therapeutic effects of immune checkpoint blockade by simultaneously targeting cytokines to tumor-reactive T cells.

Project description:Interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-21 dichotomously shape CD8+ T cell differentiation. IL-2 drives terminal differentiation, generating cells that are poorly effective against tumors, whereas IL-21 promotes stem cell memory T cells (TSCM) and antitumor responses. Here we investigated the role of metabolic programming in the developmental differences induced by these cytokines. IL-2 promoted effector-like metabolism and aerobic glycolysis, robustly inducing lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and lactate production, whereas IL-21 maintained a metabolically quiescent state dependent on oxidative phosphorylation. LDH inhibition rewired IL-2–induced effects, promoting pyruvate entry into the tricarboxylic acid cycle and inhibiting terminal effector and exhaustion programs, including mRNA expression of members of the NR4A family of nuclear receptors, as well as Prdm1 and Xbp1. While deletion of Ldha prevented development of cells with antitumor effector function, transient LDH inhibition enhanced the generation of memory cells capable of triggering robust antitumor responses after adoptive transfer. LDH inhibition did not significantly affect IL-21–induced metabolism but caused major transcriptomic changes, including the suppression of IL-21–induced exhaustion markers LAG3, PD1, 2B4, and TIM3. LDH inhibition combined with IL-21 increased the formation of TSCM cells, resulting in more profound antitumor responses and prolonged host survival. These findings indicate a pivotal role for LDH in modulating cytokine-mediated T cell differentiation and underscore the therapeutic potential of transiently inhibiting LDH during adoptive T cell-based immunotherapy, with an unanticipated cooperative antitumor effect of LDH inhibition and IL-21.

Project description:Memory T cells demonstrate superior in vivo persistence and antitumor efficacy. However, methods for manufacturing less differentiated T cells are not yet well-established. Here, we show that producing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells using berbamine (BBM), a natural compound found in the Chinese herbal medicine Berberis amurensis, enhances the antitumor efficacy of CAR-T cells. BBM is identified through cell-based screening of chemical compounds using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived T cells, leading to improved viability with a memory T cell phenotype. Transcriptomics and metabolomics using stem cell memory T cells reveal that BBM broadly enhances lipid metabolism. Furthermore, the addition of BBM downregulates the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and enhanced mitochondrial respiration. CD19-CAR-T cells cultured with BBM also extend the survival of leukaemia mouse models due to their superior in vivo persistence. This technology offers a straightforward approach to enhancing the antitumor efficacy of CAR-T cells.
