Project description:To investigate the in vivo functions of CR2/3-CAR-T loaded with VSVΔ51 after infiltrating tumor microenvironment, we analyzed the transcriptomic signatures at early stage after CAR-T infiltrating into tumor tissue. We isolated the CAR-T cells from the mouse tumor and used RNA sequence to study the global gene expression. We identified differentially expressed genes in B7H3-CAR-T cells and CR2/3-B7H3-CAR-T cells loaded with loading VSVΔ51, aiming to identify the changed pathways that are influenced by the cross-connection between VSV-G protein and CR2/3-CAR moiety.

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized the systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) between two generations of CAR-T cells aimed at integrating their fitness to overcome exhaustion and stress in tumor microenvironments Methods: mRNA profiles of CAR-T cells co-cultured with target cells for 48 hours were generated by deep sequencing. Human CD45 enrichment was performed to decrease tumor contamination. Results: Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) of the RNA expression profile of T cells obtained 48 hours post co-culture with target cells demonstrated the enrichment of genes with memory T cell phenotype in B7H3 CAR-T compared to GD2-B7H3 T cells. However, B7H3 CAR-T cells were enriched in genes associated with glycolysis and apoptosis pathways suggesting a committed terminal fate for these T cells. There was significantly greater expression of genes attributed to exhaustion in B7H3 CAR-T cells than GD2-B7H3 T cells. In particular, B7H3 CAR-T cells showed higher expression of inhibitory receptors LAG3, HAVCR2 (TIM3), and BTLA genes, along with exhaustion-related transcription factor genes TBX21 (T-bet), PRDM1 (Blimp-1), and IKZF2 (Helios). B7H3 CAR-T cells also expressed genes that encode transcription factors reported to be associated with activated and memory T cells, such as KLF6, JUN, and JUNB. Conclusions: Our study represents the first analysis of transcriptome comparing SynNotch gated GD2-B7H3 CAR-T cells versus the conventional B7H3 CAR-T cells. GD2-B7H3 T cells exhibited superior resistance to exhaustion and greater metabolic fitness in comparison to conventional CAR-T cells. Metabolic preference (glycolytic versus oxidative) has an enormous impact on T cell fate. After eradicating NBL cells, GD2-B7H3 T cells had an oxygen consumption rate similar to UT cells, suggesting that the gated T cells can revert to their naïve metabolic state. Improved metabolic plasticity and reprogramming in favor of oxidative rather than glycolytic phosphorylation supports the hypothesis that the gated CAR-T cells likely have intact expansion potential, similar to unmanipulated naïve T cells. We observed significant enrichment of glycolytic genes in conventional B7H3 CAR-T cells compared to GD2-B7H3 T cells, supporting our metabolic studies. Our data suggest that SynNotch gated CAR-T cells have a more favorable oxidative metabolic profile than 4-1BB CAR-T cells.

Project description:Purpose: MET is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that has been considered a druggable target in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To understand the mechanisms of resistance to MET-TKIs and establish therapeutic strategies, we developed an in vitro model using capmatinib-resistant cell lines (EBC-CR1, CR2, and CR3) derived from the MET-amplified NSCLC cell line EBC-1. Methods: We established capmatinib-resistant NSCLC cell lines from the MET-amplified NSCLC cell line EBC-1 and identified alternative signaling pathways using 3’mRNA sequencing and human phospho-RTK arrays. Copy number alterations were evaluated by quantitative PCR and cell proliferation assay; activation of RTKs and downstream effectors were compared between the parental cell line EBC-1 and the EBC-CR1, -CR2, and -CR3 resistant cell lines. Results: We found that epidermal growth factor (EGFR) mRNA expression and protein activation were increased in EBC-CR1–3 cells compared to EBC-1 cells. EBC-CR1 cells showed EGFR-dependent growth and sensitivity to afatinib, an irreversible EGFR TKI. EBC-CR2 cells, which overexpressed the EGFR-MET heterodimer, responded dramatically to the combination of capmatinib and the phosphoinositide-3 kinase catalytic subunit α (PIK3CA) inhibitor afatinib. In addition, EBC-CR3 cells, which had activated EGFR along with amplified PIK3CA, were sensitive to the combination of afatinib and the PI3Kα inhibitor. Conclusions: Our in vitro studies suggested that activation of EGFR signaling and/or genetic alteration of downstream effectors like PIK3CA were alternative resistance mechanisms used by capmatinib-resistant NSCLC cell lines. In addition, combined treatments with MET, EGFR, and PI3Kα inhibitors may be an effective therapeutic strategy in MET-TKI-resistant NSCLC patients.

Project description:Most patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) fail to respond to anti-PD1/PDL1 immunotherapy, indicating the necessity to explore immune checkpoint targets. B7H3 is a highly glycosylated protein. However, the mechanisms of B7H3 glycosylation regulation and whether the sugar moiety contributes to immunosuppression remain elusive. Here, we identify aberrant B7H3 glycosylation and found N-glycosylation of B7H3 at NXT motif sites are responsible for its protein stability and immunosuppression in TNBC tumors. Mechanistically, fucosyltransferase FUT8 catalyzes B7H3 core fucosylation at N-glycans to maintain its high expression. Knockdown of FUT8 rescues glycosylated B7H3-mediated immunosuppressive function in TNBC cells. Abnormal B7H3 glycosylation mediated by FUT8 overexpression could be physiologically significant and clinically relevant in TNBC patients. Notably, combination of core fucosylation inhibitor 2F-Fuc and anti-PDL1 results in enhanced therapeutic efficacy in B7H3-positive TNBC tumors. These suggest targeting FUT8-B7H3 axis can be a promising strategy for improving anti-tumor immune responses in TNBC patients. To obtain the direct evidence that B7H3 is N-glycosylated in TNBC cells, we analysed the peptides of purified human B7H3 protein from B7H3-WT re-expressed and B7H3-8NQ re-expressed MDA-MB-231 cell lines by Nanoscale liquid chromatography coupled to tandem MS (nano LC-MS/MS). The result showed that there were eight N-glycosylation sites (Asn positions 91, 104, 189, 215, 309, 322, 407, and 433) in B7H3-WT cells, but not in B7H3-8NQ cells, as determined by Asn to Asp conversion after PNGase F treatment. As B7H3 contains a nearly exact tandem duplication of the IgV-IgC domain, there were four pairs of N-glycosylation sites identified through identical peptide sequence, including N91 and N309, N104 and N322, N189 and N407, and N215 and N433, in each of the IgV-IgC domains. Together, the results indicate that B7H3 is exclusively N-glycosylated at these four pairs of glycosylation sites in TNBC cells.

Project description:Viral vectors are renowned for their inherent adjuvant effects. We here developed cancer vaccines based on the Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) vector using two different construction strategies.The first vaccine involved the traditional method of inserting tumor antigen genes into the VSV genome (SP vaccine). The second strategy, built upon the first, additionally displayed tumor antigens on the surface of the VSV, creating particulate antigen vaccine (CAD vaccine). To compare the early immune responses induced by these two vaccine strategies, we collected blood samples for RNA sequencing analysis at 24 hours post-immunization with both vaccines and a viral vector control group. The results indicated comparable early biological processes, including antiviral and innate immune responses, among the three groups. This confirms that the vector predominantly drives the early innate immune response.

Project description:The Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxinhemolysin (CyaA) and the α-hemolysin (HlyA) of Escherichia coli both belong to the family of cytolytic pore-forming Repeats in ToXin (RTX) cytotoxins. HlyA preferentially binds the αLβ2 integrin LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) of leukocytes and can promiscuously bind and permeabilize also a variety of other cells. CyaA bears an Nterminal adenylyl cyclase enzyme (AC) domain linked to a pore-forming RTX cytolysin (Hly) moiety and binds the complement receptor 3 (CR3, αMβ2, CD11b/CD18 or Mac-1) of myeloid phagocytes, penetrates their plasma membrane and delivers into cytosol the AC enzyme. We constructed a set of CyaA/HlyA chimeras and show that the CyaC-acylated segment and the CR3-binding RTX domain of CyaA can be functionally replaced by the much shorter HlyCacylated and LFA-1-binding RTX moiety of HlyA. Instead of binding CR3, a CyaA1710/HlyA411-1024 chimera bound the LFA-1 receptor and effectively delivered the AC enzyme into Jurkat lymphoblastoma T cells. At high chimera concentrations (25 nM), the interaction with LFA-1 was not required for CyaA1-710/HlyA411-1024 binding to CHO cells. However, interaction with the LFA-1 receptor strongly enhanced the specific capacity of the bound CyaA1-710/HlyA411-1024 chimera to penetrate cells and deliver the AC enzyme into their cytosol. Hence, interaction of the acylated RTX moiety of HlyA with LFA-1 promoted a productive membrane interaction of the chimera. These results allow to delimit the residues 400 to 710 of CyaA as the 'AC translocon' sufficient for translocation of the AC enzyme polypeptide across the plasma membrane of target cells

Project description:Lentiviral vectors (LV) have become the dominant tool for stable gene transfer into lymphocytes including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) gene delivery to T cells, a major breakthrough in cancer therapy. Yet, room for improvement remains, especially for the latest LV generations delivering genes selectively into T cell subtypes, a key requirement for in vivo CAR T cell generation. Towards improving gene transfer rates with these vectors, we conducted whole transcriptome analyses on human T lymphocytes after exposure to CAR-encoding conventional vector VSV-LV, and vectors targeted to CD8+ (CD8-LV) or CD4+ T cells (CD4-LV). Genes related to quiescence and antiviral restriction were found to be upregulated in CAR-negative cells exposed to all types of LVs. Down-modulation of various antiviral restriction factors including the interferon-induced transmembrane proteins (IFITMs) was achieved with rapamycin as verified by mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Strikingly, rapamycin enhanced transduction by up to 7-fold for CD8-LV and CD4-LV without compromising CAR T cell activities, but did not improve VSV-LV. When administered to humanized mice, CD8-LV resulted in higher rates of GFP gene delivery as well as faster in vivo CAR T cell generation and tumor control. The data favors multi-omics approaches for improvements in gene delivery.
