Project description:CD28-driven “signal 2” is critical for naïve CD8+ T cell responses to dendritic cell (DC)-presented weak antigens, including non-mutated tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). However, it is unclear how DC-primed cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) respond to the same TAAs presented by cancer cells which lack CD28 ligands. Here, we show that NK receptors (NKRs) DNAM-1 and NKG2D replace CD28 during CTL re-activation by cancer cells presenting low levels of MHC I/TAA complexes, leading to enhanced proximal TCR signaling, immune synapse formation, CTL polyfunctionality, release of cytolytic granules and antigen-specific cancer cell killing. Double-transduction of T cells with recombinant TCR and NKR constructs or upregulation of NKR-ligand expression on cancer cells by chemotherapy enabled effective recognition and killing of poorly immunogenic tumor cells by CTLs. Operational synergy between TCR and NKRs in CTL recognition explains the ability of cancer-expressed self-antigens to serve as tumor rejection antigens, helping to develop more effective therapies.

Project description:Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the evasion of immune surveillance by tumor cells. In this study, we aimed to identify the miRs regulated by hypoxia in NSCLC and melanoma and their putative involvement in the regulation of tumor susceptibility to antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated killing. MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) was significantly induced in a hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1_) dependent manner in NSCLC and melanoma cells. We show for the first time that miR-210 was expressed in hypoxic zones of human NSCLC tissues. Transfection of anti-miR-210 in both hypoxic NSCLC and melanoma cells resulted in a significant restoration of their susceptibility to autologous CTL-mediated lysis, independent of tumor cell recognition and CTL reactivity. A comprehensive approach using transcriptome analysis and argonaute protein immunoprecipitation indicated that PTPN, HOXA1and TP53I11 were regulated by miR-210 in hypoxic IGR-Heu cells. Simultaneous silencing of PTPN, HOXA1 and TP53I11 resulted in a dramatic decrease in target susceptibility to CTL-mediated lysis. This is the first report showing that hypoxia-induced miR-210 regulates tumor cell susceptibility to CTL-mediated lysis in part by suppressing PTPN, HOXA1 and TP53I11 expression. These studies suggest that miR-210 plays a potential role in the regulation of anti-tumor immune responses. The experience consists in 16 hybridizations on human miRNA Agilent arrays in one color, with 2 types of cell lines (HeuN and Na8) and 3 time of hypoxy induction (1% O2) (6, 16 and 24 hours) in comparison with normoxy (21% O2) at t=0. The hybridizations are made in replicates.

Project description:Recent work in immunometabolism has emphasised the role of mitochondria in both the innate and adaptive immune system. Mitochondria are important in T cell development and differentiation, but less is known about their role in CD8+ effector T cells (CTLs). We found that CTLs that lack the mitochondrial deubiquitinase USP30 undergo promiscuous mitophagy, destroying most of the cellular mitochondria. Surprisingly, this results in a markedly diminished killing capacity, while motility, signalling and secretion remain intact. This study uses quantitative DIA proteomics to measure the impact of USP30 deficiency on the global proteome of IL-2 maintained, 4.5 h TCR retriggered and 4.5 h TCR retriggered + cycloheximide CTL. We also measured the impact of pharmacologically inhibiting mitochondrial translation by performing Quantitative DIA proteomics on IL2 maintained or TCR retriggered CTL treated with the mitochondrial translation inhibitor doxycycline for 4.5 hrs. Unexpectedly, inhibition of mitochondrial translation, through genetic or pharmacologic methods, was the mechanism by which CTL killing was impaired. Reduced mitochondrial translation triggered attenuated cytosolic translation which precluded replenishment of secreted effector molecules thereby limiting the capacity of CTLs to serially kill multiple targets. Thus, mitochondria emerge as a previously unappreciated homeostatic regulator of protein translation required for serial CTL killing.

Project description:Tumors arise and grow despite anti-cancer immune responses. These responses can be stimulated by immunotherapies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g. anti-PD1 antibodies) and chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). Efficacy of these agents in solid tumors including colorectal cancers (CRC) is limited by immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) that prevents killing of malignant cells by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Understanding the nature of TME-generated immunosuppression is of paramount importance. Here we report that TME elicited immunosuppression via eliminating activated CTL; this elimination required TME stress-induced downregulation of the IFNAR1 chain of type I interferon (IFN) receptor and attenuation of its signaling. Downregulation of IFNAR1 was observed in human colorectal cancers (CRC) and in mouse CRC models where it was required for efficient tumor development and progression. Stabilization of IFNAR1 on CTL improved their survival and increased anti- tumor activities of CAR T cells and PD1 inhibitors thereby providing a rationale for targeting IFNAR1 degradation for immunotherapies optimization. Two genotypes of mice were examined either 9 or 21 days post injection of MC38 colon cancer cells or MC38mRFP cells, respectively. 2-3 replicate mice were analyzed on separate arrays for each condition. 6 conditions in total were analyzed.

Project description:The genetic circuits that allow cancer cells to evade destruction by the host immune system remain poorly understood. To identify a phenotypically robust core set of genes and pathways that facilitate cancer cell-intrinsic evasion to cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated killing, we performed genome-wide CRISPR screens across a panel of genetically diverse cancer models cultured in the presence of CTLs. We uncovered a core set of 182 genes whose individual perturbation leads to either cancer cell sensitivity or resistance to CTL toxicity. Systematic exploration of our dataset using genetic co-similarity reveals the hierarchical and coordinated nature by which genes and pathways act to orchestrate intrinsic CTL evasion, with discrete functional modules controlling the interferon response and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa)-induced cytotoxicity emerging as dominant sub-phenotypes. Our data establish a central role for previously identified negative regulators of the Type II interferon response (e.g. Ptpn2, Socs1, Adar1) in mediating intrinsic CTL evasion and demonstrate a requirement for the lipid droplet related gene Fitm2 for maintaining cell fitness upon exposure to interferon gamma (IFNg). Additionally, we identify the autophagy pathway as a conserved mediator of cancer intrinsic CTL evasion, required to resist cytokine-mediated cytotoxicity caused by IFNg and TNFa. By mapping cytokine- and CTL-based genetic interactions, as well as in vivo CRISPR screens, we illuminate the pleiotropic nature by which autophagy acts to orchestrate intrinsic CTL evasion and highlight the importance of our observed effects within the tumor microenvironment. Collectively, our data expands our appreciation of the genetic circuits that contribute to cancer intrinsic immune evasion, highlighting the importance of leveraging systematic functional genomics approaches for furthering our understanding of this biology.
