The Tumor Microenvironment Imposes Persistent ATF4 in CD8+ TILs to Obstruct Cancer Control

ABSTRACT: The T cell-intrinsic element that responds to tumor microenvironment (TME) stress to shape CD8+ tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) fate and function in solid cancers remains elusive. Here we report that the hypoxic TME imprints persistent activity of the central transcriptional node of the integrated stress response (ISR), activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), in CD8+ TILs that results in metabolic polarity, mitochondrial oxidative stress, and cell death. Chronic ATF4 expression replicated the terminal exhaustion cell state in CD8+ T cells and high Atf4 expression in bulk tumor or peripheral T cells of patients with melanoma predicted poor response to PD-1 inhibition. Genetic or pharmacologic attenuation of ATF4 reduced mitochondrial oxidative stress and promoted viability among CD8+ TILs, enabling complete responses to PD-1 inhibition and conferring protection from re-emergent disease. Our multidisciplinary approach identifies chronic ATF4 activity as a barrier to immune checkpoint inhibitors, positioning ISR therapeutics as novel treatment strategies to improve efficacy of immunotherapy combinations.

Epigenetic profiling of OVA-specific CD8+ TILs from mice treated with control, anti-B7S1, anti-PD-1 or anti-B7S1+anti-PD-1 antibodies

Project description:Combinational blockade of B7S1 and PD-1 exhibits stronger anti-tumor efficacy than monotherapies. In order to further understand the mechanisms whereby blockade of B7S1 or PD-1 inhibits tumor growth, we conducted ATAC-seq analysis of OVA-specific CD8+ TILs from E.G7-bearing mice treated with control antibodies, anti-B7S1, anti-PD-1 monotherapy or combinational therapy.

The interactions among Tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILS) induced by Stellera chamaejasme and anti-PD-1 therapy with Sing-cell Expression Profiling

Project description:Tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILS) plays a pivotal role in immunotherapy, but the dynamic relationships of the T cells reacted on the therapy remains elusive. T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, serving as lineage tags, could track these tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes. Here, in order to deconvolve TILS heterogeneity after therapy in a comprehensive catalog, we presented single T-cell analysis by RNA-seq and TCR tracking of a 22,590 T cells from colorectal carcinoma under control conditions and during Stellera chamaejasme and anti-PD-1 activation. We reveal a highly complex microenvironment which profoundly molds T lymphocytes, as well as the combinatorial impact of TCR utilization on phenotypic diversity. scRNA-seq identified distinct CD8 T cells subtypes CD8 naïve and CD8 cytoxic cells(CD8 CTL), also, CD4 T cell subpopulations Regulatory T(Tregs) cells and T helper cell 17(Th-17). Stellera chamaejasme activation triggered CTSW, ICOS, etc. in CD8 T cells, whose the dramatic differentiation into from a single time point. At the same time, Stellera chamaejasme plus anti-PD-1 therapy have a strikingly effect on the balance between Tregs and Th-17. Our integrated analyses provide a powerful avenue to disclose the TILS in CRC based on TCR and demonstrate novel functional interactions among TILS subpopulations during Stellera chamaejasme plus anti-PD-1 therapy.

Characterization of gene expression of tumor infiltrating T cells (TILs) in previously untreated patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) compared with those of tonsils

Project description:It has been shown that tumor infiltrating immune cells have a profound impact on the outcome of FL. To find mechanisms whereby TILs are altered gene expession analysis of highly pure TILs were performed. The study is composed of 4 groups, FL CD4 (n=12), FL CD8 (n=9), Tonsil CD4 (n=7) and Tonsil CD8 (n=7). All FL patients were treatment naive. Cells were flowsorted from cryopreserved single cell suspensions and purity of cells were at least 95%.

PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells are marked by loss of CD28 expression and rescued by IL-15

Project description:Blockade of programmed death-1 (PD-1) reinvigorates exhausted CD8+ T cells, resulting in tumor regression in cancer patients. Recently, reinvigoration of exhausted CD8+ T cells following PD-1 blockade was shown to be CD28-dependent in mouse models. Herein, we examined the role of CD28 in anti-PD-1-induced human T-cell reinvigoration using tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells (CD8+ TILs) obtained from non-small cell lung cancer patients. Single cell analysis demonstrated a distinct expression pattern of CD28 between mouse and human CD8+ TILs. Furthermore, we found that human CD28+CD8+, but not CD28–CD8+ TILs, responded to PD-1 blockade irrespective of B7/CD28 blockade, indicating that CD28 co-stimulation in human CD8+ TILs is dispensable for PD-1 blockade-induced reinvigoration, and loss of CD28 expression rather serve as a marker of anti-PD-1-unresponsive CD8+ TILs. Transcriptionally and phenotypically, PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs exhibited characteristics of terminally exhausted CD8+ T cells with low TCF1 expression. Notably, CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs had preserved machinery to respond to IL-15, and IL-15 treatment enhanced proliferation of CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs as well as CD28+PD-1+CD8+ TILs. Taken together, we demonstrate loss of CD28 expression as a marker of PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human CD8+ TILs with TCF1– signature and provide mechanistic insights into combining IL-15 with anti-PD-1.

A burned-out CD8+ T-cell subset expands in the tumor microenvironment and curbs cancer immunotherapy

Project description:Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are considered to be exhausted, lacking proliferative and effector functions, which impairs cancer immunity. We employed single-cell mass cytometry and tissue imaging technologies to dissect TILs in 25 resectable and 35 advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. We identified a phenotypically burn-out CD8 TIL subset (Ebo), specifically accumulated within the tumor microenvironment (TME). In contrast to exhausted T-cells, Ebo appears to be the most proliferative TIL subset. Furthermore, Ebo showed the highest expression of activation markers, but it was more apoptotic and produced less IFNg than other CD8 TIL subsets. Using a humanized patient-derived tumor xenograft model, we demonstrated that Ebo expansion occurred within the TME in a PD-pathway dependent manner. Importantly, Ebo abundance in baseline tumor tissues was associated with resistance to anti-PD therapy in NSCLC patients. Our study identified a dysfunctional TIL subset, distinct from exhausted T-cells, and implies strategies to overcome resistance in cancer immunotherapy.

scRNA and TCRalpha-beta-seq data from 3 dissociated renal cell carcinoma samples that were CD45 positive sorted, enriched for lymphocytes and sequenced

Project description:In our study, we have characterized the non-expanded and expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) from treatment-naive renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients (n=3), as well as the minimally cultured pre-REP TILs and rapidly expanded REP TILs with a clinical-grade TIL expansion protocol. We observed that the REP TILs encompassed an abundance of CD4positive T-cells, together with increased LAG-3 and low PD-1 expression in the CD4positive and CD8positive T-cells. In addition, we observed that the TIL expansion protocol expanded small CD4positive T-cell clonotypes in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and that the large, exhausted tumor T-cell clonotypes do not expand. We further identified RCC-associated TCR motifs that were validated in multiple TCRalpha-beta-seq and scRNAand TCRalpha-beta-seq datasets, as well as quantified the RCC-associated TCRs from the REP protocol. Overall, the T-cells carrying the RCC-associated TCRs remained high in the tumors and corresponding pre-REP TILs, but the frequency was reduced in the REP TILs. Furthermore, the overall anti-viral TCRs remained low throughout the REP protocol. Our results provide an in-depth understanding of the origin, immunophenotype, and specificity of the TCRs in RCC TILs.

Combined PD-L1/TGFb blockade allows expansion and differentiation of stem cell-like CD8 T cells in immune excluded tumors

Project description:TGFb signaling is a major pathway associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with advanced metastatic cancers and non-response to immune checkpoint blockade, particularly in the immune-excluded tumor phenotype. While previous pre-clinical studies demonstrated that converting tumors from an excluded to an inflamed phenotype and curative anti-tumor immunity require attenuation of both PD-L1 and TGFb signaling, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies suggest that stem cell-like CD8 T cells (TSCL) can differentiate into non-exhausted CD8 T effector cells that drive durable anti-tumor immunity. Here, we show that TGFb and PD-L1 restrain TSCL expansion as well as replacement of progenitor exhausted and dysfunctional CD8 T cells with non-exhausted IFNghi CD8 T effector cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blockade of TGFb and PD-L1 generated IFNghi CD8 T effector cells with enhanced motility, enabling both their accumulation in the TME and increased interaction with other cell types. Ensuing IFNg signaling markedly transformed myeloid, stromal, and tumor niches to yield a broadly immune-supportive ecosystem. Blocking IFNg completely abolished the effect of anti-PD-L1/ TGFb combination therapy. Our data suggest that TGFb works in concert with PD-L1 to prevent TSCL expansion and replacement of exhausted CD8 T cells with fresh CD8 T effector cells, thereby maintaining the CD8 T cell compartment in a dysfunctional state.

Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase Obstructs CD8+ T-Cell Lipid Utilization in the Tumor Microenvironment

Project description:The solid tumor microenvironment (TME) imprints a compromised metabolic state in tumor infiltrating T cells (TILs) hallmarked by the inability to maintain effective energy synthesis for antitumor function and survival. T cells in the TME must catabolize lipids via mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) to supply energy in nutrient stress, and it is established that T cells enriched in FAO are adept at cancer control. However, endogenous TILs and unmodified cellular therapy products fail to sustain bioenergetics in tumors. Using patient samples and mouse models, we reveal that the solid TME imposes perpetual acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity, invoking lipid biogenesis and storage in TILs that directly opposes FAO. Using metabolic, lipidomic, and confocal imaging strategies, we find that restricting ACC rewires T cell metabolism, enabling energy maintenance in TME stress. Moreover, limiting ACC activity potentiates a gene and phenotypic program indicative of T cell longevity, engendering T cells with increased survival and polyfunctionality, with the ability to control solid cancer.
