Hematopoietic Tet2 inactivation enhances the response to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy

ABSTRACT: Somatic mutations inactivating TET2 are among the most common drivers of clonal hematopoiesis (CH). While TET2 inactivation is associated with monocyte-derived inflammation and improved chimeric antigen-receptor-T cell function, its impact on immunotherapy response is unknown. In murine models, hematopoietic Tet2 mutation enhanced the immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) response via the combined presence of phagocytes, CD4 and CD8 T cells. Mechanistically, in Tet2-mutant tumor-infiltrating leukocytes (TILs), ICB preferentially restricted cell states linked to tumor progression while inducing anti-tumor states. Tet2-mutant monocytes activated costimulatory programs, while Tet2-mutant T cells showed enhanced T cell memory signatures, alongside decreased exhaustion and regulatory phenotypes. This murine data was clinically relevant, since tumors from colorectal cancer and melanoma patients with TET2 driver mutation-CH (TET2-CH) showed enhanced immune infiltration, inflammation, and T cell activation. In melanoma patients treated with ICB, TET2-CH was associated with 6-fold greater odds of clinical benefit. Collectively, our data establishes that hematopoietic Tet2 inactivation primes leukocytes for anti-tumor states associated with immunotherapy response and provides a potential biomarker for personalized therapy.

Tet2-mediated clonal hematopoiesis improves neurological deficits and is associated with inflammation resolution in the subacute phase of stroke

Project description:Recent work has revealed that clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is associated with a higher risk of numerous age-related diseases, including ischemic stroke, however little is known about whether it influences stroke outcome. Studies suggest that leukocytes carrying CH driver mutations have an enhanced inflammatory profile, which could conceivably exacerbate brain injury after a stroke. Using a mouse model of Tet2-mediated CH, we tested the hypothesis that CH would lead to a poorer outcome after ischemic stroke by augmenting brain inflammation. In contrast to our hypothesis, Tet2-mediated CH had no effect on acute stroke outcome but led to reduced neurological deficits during the subacute phase. This improved neurological outcome was associated with lower levels of brain inflammation during this time, suggesting that Tet2-mediated CH may promote inflammation resolution in the brain post-stroke. While additional mechanistic studies are required, these findings may suggest that Tet2-mediated CH has beneficial actions on the post-stroke brain.

Cell of origin epigenetic priming determines susceptibility to Tet2 mutation

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mutations can result in clonal hematopoiesis (CH) with heterogeneous clinical outcomes. Here, we investigated how the cell state preceding Tet2 mutation impacts the pre-malignant phenotype. Using an inducible system for clonal analysis of myeloid progenitors, we found that the epigenetic features of clones at similar differentiation status were highly heterogeneous and functionally responded differently to Tet2 mutation. Cell differentiation stage also influenced Tet2 mutation response indicating that the cell of origin's epigenome modulates clone-specific behaviors in CH. Molecular features associated with higher risk outcomes include Sox4 that sensitized cells to Tet2 inactivation, inducing dedifferentiation, altered metabolism and increasing the in vivo clonal output of mutant cells, as confirmed in primary GMP and HSC models. Our findings validate the hypothesis that epigenetic features can predispose specific clones for dominance, explaining why identical genetic mutations can result in different phenotypes.

Effect on chromatin accessibility of knock down of Scrambled control or Kdm3b on wild-type or Idh2 R140Q TF-1 cells

Project description:Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is a common premalignant state in the blood and confers an increased risk of blood cancers and all-cause mortality. Identification of therapeutic targets in CH has been hindered by the lack of an ex vivo platform amenable for studying primary hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with and without CH-associated mutations. Here, we utilize an ex vivo co-culture system of primary murine HSPCs with bone marrow endothelial cells to perform CRISPR/Cas9 screens and identify vulnerabilities specific to mutant versus wild-type HSPCs. Our data reveal that loss of the histone demethylase family members KDM3B and JMJD1C specifically reduces the fitness of IDH2- and TET2- mutant HSPCs, but not wild-type HSPCs, including in TET2-mutant human HSPCs and Tet2-mutant murine leukemia cells with cooperating disease alleles. KDM3B loss in mutant cells leads to decreased expression of critical cytokine receptors including MPL, rendering mutant HSPCs preferentially susceptible to inhibition of downstream JAK2 signaling. Our study provides a scalable platform to identify genetic dependencies in mutant HSPCs and reveals an atlas of dependencies in normal and CH-mutant HSPCs. This study nominates an epigenetic regulator and an epigenetically regulated receptor signaling pathway as genotype-specific therapeutic targets in a subset of CH and myeloid malignancies.

Epigenetic regulators of clonal hematopoiesis control CD8 T cell stemness during immunotherapy [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Epigenetic reinforcement of T cell exhaustion is a major barrier limiting durability of T cell responses during immunotherapy, however the central epigenetic regulators restricting therapy-enabling T cell stemness in settings of prolonged antigen exposure remain to be fully resolved. Here we investigated DNMT3A, TET2, and ASXL1, the three most commonly mutated epigenetic regulators promoting clonal hematopoiesis (CH), to determine if they control the cardinal features of T cell stemness. Using a canonical murine model of exhaustion, we show that CD8 T cells lacking Dnmt3a, Tet2, or Asxl1 are able to preserve an immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) responsive progenitor-exhausted (Tpex) population for over a year during chronic antigen exposure without undergoing malignant transformation. Specific investigation into the lesser-studied regulator, Asxl1, revealed that this unprecedented maintenance of Tpex was achieved through preservation of the cell’s self-renewal capacity with less terminal differentiation. Mechanistic investigation into the role of Asxl1 during CD8 T cell differentiation revealed epigenetic modification of the PR-DUB pathway involving H2AK119-ubiquitination. Extending this Tpex-preserving mechanism to immunotherapy, we report synergy between Asxl1 deficient T cells and anti-PDL1, resulting in heightened tumor control in murine tumor models and a survival advantage to the mutated T cells in treated patients. These data collectively define a core set of epigenetic regulators that control longevity of the stem-like T cell population responsible for clinical success during cancer immunotherapy.
