Endothelial PD-L1 brakes CD8+ T cell exhaustion, empowering anti-tumor immunity in non-small cell lung cancer

ABSTRACT: Cancer immunotherapies targeting PD-(L)1 offer therapeutic potential but suffer resistance. The role of PD-L1 in tumor and myeloid cells has been extensively studied, while its function in tumor endothelial cells (ECs) is overlooked. Surprisingly, we identified an unknown role of EC-specific PD-L1 in delaying the exhaustion of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells in a non-small cell lung cancer mouse model. Loss of endothelial PD-L1 reduces T cell activation and exac-erbates tumor growth. Initial inhibition of CD8+ T cells by endothelial PD-L1, prior to encoun-tering cancer cells, prevents T cells from prematurely reaching a terminal exhaustion state. Initial results suggest that high EC PD-L1 expression in NSCLC patient tumors might become a potential positive predictor of anti-PD-1 outcome. These unexpected findings highlight the significance of vessel-associated PD-L1 and suggest that EC PD-L1 blockade upon systemic treatment potentially negates the overall therapeutic effect, raising the question if this might contribute to therapy resistance.

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.

PD-L1 overexpression, SWI/SNF complex Deregulation and Profound Transcriptomic Changes Characterize Cancer-Dependent Exhaustion of Persistently Activated CD4+ T Cells

Project description:The growing tumor avoids recognition and destruction by immune system. During continuous stimulation of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) by tumor, TILs become functionally exhausted. Thus, they become unable to kill tumor cells and to produce some cytokines, and lose their ability to proliferate. It collectively results in the immune escape of cancer cells. Here, we show that breast cancer cells expressing PD-L1 can accelerate exhaustion of persistently activated human effector CD4+ T cells, manifesting in high PD-1 and PD-L1 expression level on cell surface, decreased glucose metabolism genes, strong downregulation of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex subunits and p21 cell cycle inhibitor upregulation. This results in inhibition of T cell proliferation and reduction of T cells number. The RNAseq analysis on exhausted CD4+ T cells indicated strong overexpression of IDO1 and genes encoding pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The PD-L1 overexpression was also observed in CD4+ T cells after co-cultivation with other cell line overexpressing PD-L1 that suggested the existence of general mechanism of CD4+ T cell exhaustion induced by cancer cells. The ChIP analysis on PD-L1 promoter region indicated that the strong BRM recruitment in control CD4+ T cells is replaced by BRG1 and EZH2 in CD4+ T cells strongly exhausted by cancer cells. These findings suggest that such epi-drugs as EZH2 inhibitors may be used as immunomodulators in cancer treatment.

Analysis of mouse T cell transcription profile after co-culture with BaF3 cells with or without the oncogenic point mutation JAK2 V617F

Project description:The activation of PD-1 (Programmed Death receptor-1) on T cells can cause T cell exhaustion and immune tolerance. Some tumors up-regulate the expression of the ligand of PD-1, namely PD-L1 (Programmed Death Receptor-Ligand 1), thus preventing anti-tumor immune response and promoting immune-escape. Previous studies have shown that JAK2 (Janus Kinase 2) signaling can promote PD-L1 expression in Hodgkin Lymphoma. In Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN), JAK2 is frequently characterized by the the presence of the point-mutation V617F, which leads to its constitutive activation and to uncontrolled cell proliferation and survival. Accordingly, tumor cell lines expressing JAK2 V617F express higher levels of PD-L1 as compared to tumor cell lines negative for such mutations. In this experiment, we transfected BaF3 cells with a vector (plasmid for Murine Stem Cell Virus) containing the gene for JAK2 with the point-mutation V617F. As control, we used BaF3 cells transfected with the same vector, but without the gene for JAK2 V617F (empty vector). Both the cell lines (with/without JAK2 V617F) were co-cultured with primary murine T cells. When co-cultured with BaF3 cells expressing JAK2 V617F, T cells upregulated genes connected to senescence pathways, showed increased apoptosis, less cytokine production, and displayed other forms of dysfunction which can be associated with the activation of PD-1.

Protein mass spectrometry analysis of the effect of overexpression of PD-L1 on β-cell derived exosomes components

Project description:Biomaterial-based implants encapsulating islets or β-cells are desirable regimens for type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, current implants are restricted by poor durable β-cell survival due to immune cell infiltration, graft fibrosis and hypoxia. Programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) induces T cell exhaustion, consequently protecting β-cells from autoimmune attack. Herein, we report an implant encapsulating PD-L1-overexpressing-β-cell microspheres (PD-L1 β-MCSs) and Chlorella within alginate hydrogel to control hyperglycemia in T1D. Virtually, PD-L1-β-cell derived exosomes efficaciously induce T cell exhaustion and convert macrophages into M2 phenotype in vitro. And PD-L1 β-MCSs secrete insulin in response to changes in glucose concentration. Furthermore, PD-L1-β-cell microspheres artificial Pancreas (PD-L1-β-MCSs aPancreas) prominently relieve hyperglycemia with less CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and M1 macrophages infiltration, inflammation and fibrosis deposition. Intriguingly, Chlorella produces oxygen to relieve hypoxia and enables the PD-L1-β-MCSs aPancreas-transplanted mice to achieve sustained normoglycemia, which potentially benefit from both oxygen supplementation and exosomal PD-L1.

Enhancing PD-L1 Degradation by ITCH during MAPK Inhibitor Therapy Suppresses Acquired Resistance

Project description:Disrupting PD-1/PD-L1 interaction rejuvenates antitumor immunity. Clinical successes by blocking PD-1/PD-L1 binding have grown across wide-ranging cancer histologies, but innate therapy resistance is evident in the majority of treated patients1. Cancer cells can express robust surface levels of PD-L1 to tolerize tumor-specific T cells, but regulation of PD-L1 protein levels in the cancer cell is poorly understood. Quasi-mesenchymal tumor cells up-regulate PD-L1/L2 and induce an immune-suppressive microenvironment, including expansion of M2-like macrophages and regulatory T cells and exclusion of CD8+ T-cell infiltration2. Targeted therapy, including MAPK inhibitor therapy in melanoma, leads to quasi-mesenchymal transitions and resistance3, and both MAPK inhibitor treatment and mesenchymal signatures are associated with innate anti-PD-1 resistance4,5. Here we identify ITCH as an E3 ligase that downregulates tumor cell-surface PD-L1/L2 in PD-L1/L2-high cancer cells, including MAPK inhibitor-resistant melanoma, and suppresses acquired MAPK inhibitor resistance in and only in immune-competent mice. ITCH interacts with and poly-ubiquitinates PD-L1/L2, and ITCH deficiency increases cell-surface PD-L1/L2 expression and reduces T cell activation. Mouse melanoma tumors grow faster with Itch knockdown only in syngeneic hosts but not in immune-deficient mice. MAPK inhibitor therapy induces tumor cell-surface PD-L1 expression in murine melanoma, recapitulating the responses of clinical melanoma3, and this induction is more robust with Itch knockdown. Notably, suppression of ITCH expression first elicits a shift toward an immune-suppressive microenvironment and then accelerates resistance development. These findings collectively identify ITCH as a critical negative regulator of PD-L1 tumor cell-surface expression and provide insights into previously unexplained role of PD-L1 in adaptive resistance to therapy.

Human RKO cells LC-MSMS (gel-based proteomics)

Project description:Tumor cells evade T cell-mediated immunosurveillance via the interaction between programmed death-1 (PD-1) ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor cells and PD-1 on T cells. Strategies disrupting PD-1/PD-L1 have shown clinical benefits in various cancers. However, the limited response rate prompts us to investigate the molecular regulation of PD-L1. Here we identify trafficking protein particle complex subunit 4 (TRAPPC4), a major player in vesicular trafficking, as a crucial PD-L1 regulator. TRAPPC4 interacts with PD-L1 in recycling endosomes, promoting RAB11-mediated recycling of PD-L1, and acting as a scaffold between PD-L1 and RAB11, thus replenishing its distribution on the tumor cell surface.

Soluble immune-checkpoint factors as a complementary biomarker for PD-1 blockade reflect exhaustion of antitumor immunity

Project description:BACKGROUND. Precise stratification of patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is needed for appropriate application of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy. METHODS. We measured soluble (s) forms of the PD-L1, PD-1, and CTLA-4 in plasma of patients with advanced NSCLC before PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Prospective biomarker finding trial (cohort A), 50 patients with pretreated NSCLC received nivolumab. In cohort B to E, retrospective observational study, soluble immune checkpoint molecules were evaluated for patients with advanced NSCLC treated with any PD-1/PD-L1 blockade (cohort B and C), cytotoxic chemotherapy (D) or targeted therapy (E). Blood samples were obtained from all patients and soluble immune checkpoint molecules were evaluated using a highly sensitive chemiluminescence-based assay. RESULTS. Nonresponsiveness to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy was associated with higher concentrations of these soluble immune factors among patients with immune-reactive (hot) tumors. Such correlation was not observed in patients treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy or targeted therapies. Integrative analysis of tumor size, PD-L1 expression in tumor tissue (tPD-L1), and gene expression in tumor tissue and peripheral CD8+ T cells revealed that high concentrations of the three soluble immune factors were associated with hyper or terminal exhaustion of antitumor immunity. The combination of sPD-L1 and sCTLA-4 efficiently discriminated responsiveness among patients with immune-reactive tumors. CONCLUSION. Combinations of soluble immune factors might be able to identify patients unlikely to respond to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade as a result of terminal exhaustion of antitumor immunity. Our data suggest such a combination might provide a biomarker complementary to tPD-L1 for NSCLC patients.

Radiation and Dual Checkpoint Blockade Activates Non-Redundant Mechanisms in Cancer

Project description:Response to immune checkpoint inhibitors may be improved through combinations with each other and other therapies, raising questions about non-redundancy and resistance. We report results from parallel studies of melanoma patients and mice treated with anti-CTLA4 and radiation (RT). Although combined treatment improved responses, resistance was common. Computational analyses of immune and transcriptomic profiles (provided here) revealed that resistance in mice was due to upregulation of tumor PD-L1 that drives T cell exhaustion. Accordingly, optimal response requires RT, anti-CTLA4, and anti-PD-L1. Anti-CTLA4 inhibits Tregs, RT diversifies and shapes the TCR repertoire, and anti-PD-L1 reinvigorates exhausted T cells. Together, all three therapies promote the expansion of clonotypes with distinct TCR traits. Similar to mice, patients with melanoma showing high PD-L1 did not respond to RT + anti-CTLA4, demonstrated persistent T cell exhaustion, and rapidly progressed. Thus, the combination of RT, anti-CTLA4, and anti-PD-L1 promotes response through distinct mechanisms.

Tumor PD-L1 engages myeloid PD-1 to suppress type I interferon to impair cytotoxic T lymphocyte recruitment (bulk)

Project description:A hallmark of PD-1/L1 blockade is long-term, sustained remission of metastatic disease. How the immune system coordinates the destruction of macro- and micro-metastases following checkpoint blockade, however, remains unclear. Here, we show that tumor-expressed PD-L1 (tPD-L1) enhanced metastasis in a mechanism distinct from and independent of its role in primary tumor growth. This difference in metastatic growth was mediated by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), however, tPD-L1 did not promote effector CTL exhaustion or suppress lytic activity in vivo. Instead, single cell RNA sequencing revealed that tPD-L1 engaged macrophage-expressed PD-1 to antagonize type I interferon production and signaling, creating an immunologically ‘cold’ microenvironment. Loss of tPD-L1 eliminated metastases by driving interferon-mediated sensitization of tumor cells to CTL lysis and CTL recruitment.
