Dual Targeting of STING and PI3Kγ Eliminates Regulatory B Cells to Overcome STING Resistance for Pancreatic Cancer Immunotherapy [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The immune suppression in tumors and lymph nodes of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), regulated by suppressive myeloid cells and regulatory B (Breg) cells, hinders the effectiveness of immunotherapy. Although STING agonists activate myeloid cells to overcome immune suppression, it expands Breg cells, conferring STING resistance in PDAC. We discovered that blocking PI3Kγ during STING activation abolished IRF3 phosphorylation to eliminate Breg cells, while PI3Kγ inhibition sustained STING-induced IRF3 phosphorylation to preserve STING function in myeloid cells. Therefore, we developed a dual functional compound SH-273 and its albumin nanoformulation Nano-273, which stimulates STING to activate myeloid cells and inhibits PI3Kγ to eliminates Breg cells overcoming STING resistance. Nano-273 achieved systemic antitumor immunity through intravenous administration, which decreases Breg cells and remodels microenvironment in tumors and lymph nodes. Nano-273, combined with anti-PD-1, extended median survival to 200 days in transgenic KPC PDAC mice (KrasG12D-P53R172H-Cre), offering potential for PDAC treatment.

Cyclic-Di-Nucleotides Trigger ULK1 (ATG1) Phosphorylation of STING to Prevent Sustained Innate Immune Signaling

Project description:Activation of the STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) pathway by microbial or self-DNA, as well as cyclic di nucleotides (CDN), results in the induction of numerous genes that suppress pathogen replication and facilitate adaptive immunity. However, sustained gene transcription is rigidly prevented to avoid lethal STING-dependent pro-inflammatory disease by mechanisms that remain unknown. We demonstrate here that after autophagy-dependent STING delivery of TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) to endosomal/lysosomal compartments and activation of transcription factors IRF3 (interferon regulatory factors 3) and NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa beta), that STING is subsequently phosphorylated by serine/threonine UNC-51-like kinase (ULK1/ATG1) and IRF3 function is suppressed. ULK1 activation occurred following disassociation from its repressor adenine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), and was elicited by CDN’S generated by the cGAMP synthase, cGAS. Thus, while CDN’s may initially facilitate STING function, they subsequently trigger negative-feedback control of STING activity, thus preventing the persistent transcription of innate immune genes. Total RNA obtained from primary STING deficient mouse embryonic fibroblast reconstituted with mSTING (W), S365A variant (A), or S365D variant (D). These cells were transfected with dsDNA (ISD) for 3 hours.

IRF3 activates RB to authorize cGAS-STING-induced senescence and mitigate liver fibrosis

Project description:Cytosolic dsDNA surveillance by cGAS-STING signaling triggers autophagy, biased mRNA translation, cellular senescence, and interferon-mediated immune responses. However, detailed mechanisms and physiological relevance of STING-induced senescence are not fully understood. Here, we unexpectedly found that IRF3, activated during innate DNA sensing, forms substantial endogenous complexes in the nucleus with retinoblastoma (RB), a well-known tumor suppressor and key cell cycle regulator. The IRF3-RB interaction attenuates CDK4/6-mediated hyperphosphorylation of RB that mobilizes RB to deactivate E2 family (E2F) transcription factors, thereby driving cells into senescence. STING-IRF3-RB signaling plays a notable role in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) within CCl4 or bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced murine models, pushing activated HSCs towards senescence. Accordingly, global IRF3 knockout or conditional deletion of IRF3 in HSCs aggravated liver fibrosis, a process mitigated by an FDA-approved CDK4/6 inhibitor. These findings underscore a straightforward yet vital mechanism of cGAS-STING signaling in inducing cellular senescence and unveil its unexpected biology in limiting liver fibrosis.

STING-mediated proton channel activity, signaling, and autoimmune disease require ArfGAP2

Project description:STING transmits signals downstream of the cytosolic DNA sensor cGAS, leading to transcriptional up-regulation of cytokines. However, components of the STING signaling pathway, such as IRF3 and IFNAR1, are not essential for autoinflammatory disease in STING gain-of-function (SAVI) mice. Recent findings indicate that STING can also function as a proton channel that deacidifies the Golgi. Since pH impacts Golgi enzyme activity, protein maturation, and trafficking, we hypothesized that STING proton channel activity influences multiple Golgi functions. Here, we show that STING-mediated proton efflux non-transcriptionally regulates Golgi trafficking of protein cargos. This process requires the Golgi-associated protein ArfGAP2, a cell type-specific dual regulator of STING-mediated proton efflux and signaling. Deletion of ArfGAP2 in hematopoietic and endothelial cells markedly reduces STING-mediated cytokine and chemokine secretion, immune cell activation, and autoinflammatory pathology in SAVI mice. Thus, ArfGAP2 facilitates STING-mediated signaling and cytokine release in hematopoietic cells, significantly contributing to autoinflammatory disease pathogenesis.

Interleukin-1β induces mitochondrial DAMP production to activate STING-dependent innate immune programs

Project description:Here we report that exogenous IL-1β induces TBK1-mediated interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) activation and autophagic flux in human myeloid and epithelial cells. IL-1β-induced innate immune activation is dependent upon the DNA sensing pathway adaptor, stimulator of interferon genes (STING), through the recognition of mitochondrial DNA by cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS). Thus, IL-1β potentiates pathogen-induced interferon production and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling to amplify innate immune responses.

Modular architecture of the STING C-terminal tail allows interferon and NF-κB signaling adaptation

Project description:Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) is a key regulator of type I interferon and pro-inflammatory responses during infection, cellular stress, and cancer. Here we reveal a mechanism for how STING balances activation of IRF3- and NF-κB-dependent transcription, and discover that acquisition of discrete signaling modules in the vertebrate STING C-terminal tail (CTT) shapes downstream immunity. As a defining example, we identify a motif appended to the CTT of zebrafish STING that inverts the typical vertebrate signaling response and results in dramatic NF-κB activation and weak IRF3-interferon signaling. We determine a co-crystal structure that explains how this CTT sequence recruits TRAF6 as a new binding partner, and demonstrate that the minimal motif is sufficient to reprogram human STING and immune activation in macrophage cells. Together, our results define the STING CTT as a linear signaling hub that can acquire modular motifs to readily adapt downstream immunity.

IRE1α Downregulation Enhances STING-Mediated Chemoresistance and Guides Precision Therapies in Pancreatic Cancer

Project description:The cGAS-STING signaling pathway plays dichotomous roles in the development of malignant diseases. While the role and regulation of STING signaling in immune cells is well-documented, the mechanisms by which tumor cells modify tumor-intrinsic STING signaling to evade treatment remain poorly understood. Here, we report that chemotherapy activates STING and induces low-grade chronic inflammation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells.

The noncanonical cGAS-STING-PERK pathway enables a selective translation program and underlies organ fibrosis

Project description:Innate DNA sensing via the cGAS-STING pathway surveys both microbial invasion and cellular damage, constituting a ubiquitous mechanism for host defense and tissue homeostasis. However, very little is known about the signaling mechanism(s) and physiological impacts downstream of cGAS-STING signaling and independent of the classical TBK1-IRF3-IFN cascade. Here, we identified an unrecognized STING-PERK-eIF2α signaling axis that was specific and controlled cap-dependent translation, a fundamental cellular process. STING, upon activation by 2'3'-cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), robustly bound and directly activated the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-located kinase PERK, and this process was upstream of IRF3 activation and independent of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and TBK1/IKKε. Innate DNA sensing suppressed global translation programs but selectively ensured the activation of some pathways by PERK-mediated eIF2α phosphorylation and the rapid regulation of protein synthesis, enabling translational modulation of immune responses. Notably, the STING-PERK-eIF2α axis is an evolutionarily primitive component of STING-TBKI-IRF3-IFN signaling and is physiologically critical in pulmonary and renal fibrosis as well as in the regulation of cellular senescence. Therefore, these findings establish the first noncanonical pathway of the cGAS-STING mechanism and demonstrate the physiological importance of this STING-triggered selective translation, which we propose as a promising therapeutic target for fibrotic diseases.

CDK4/6 inhibits the STING signaling axis through RB1-dependent and RB1-independent pathways in prostate cancer

Project description:The efficacy of immunotherapy in prostate cancer is not satisfactory due to the “cold” tumor microenvironment and the paucity of neoantigens. The STING-TBK1-IRF3 signaling axis as core molecules of the innate immune system is increasingly recognized as a candidate target for cancer immunotherapy. Previou studies reported that CDK4/6 inhibitors induced DNA damage to activate the cGAS-STING pathway. However, the underlying mechanisms of how CDK4/6 inactivated the cGAS-STING pathway are still elusive. Here we revealed that treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors enhance the anti-tumor effect of STING agonists in prostate cancer cells. Mechanically, CDK4/6 phosphorylated TBK1 at S527 to inactive the STING signaling pathway independent of RB1 in prostate cancer cell. Then, we also found that CDK4/6 phosphorylated RB1 at S249/T252 to induce the interaction of RB1 with TBK1 and diminish the phosphorylation of TBK1 at S172, which also suppresses the activation of the STING pathway. Collectively, we found that CDK4/6 inhibits the STING/TBK1/IRF3 axis through RB1-dependent and RB1-independent pathways in prostate cancer cells. These insights provide the novel evidence for CDK4/6 suppressing the innate immune response of prostate cancer.
