KDM3B inhibition suppresses SHP1 expression by modulating the epigenetic landscape of the Shp1 promoter.

ABSTRACT: Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for cancer management, but its applicability in patients with triple–negative breast cancer (TNBC) is limited by the low efficacy due to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we identify lysine demethylase 3B (KDM3B) as an essential mediator of immune evasion in TNBC. KDM3B expression is negatively correlated with cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) infiltration. Genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of KDM3B facilitates the recruitment and activation of CD8+ T cells, thereby suppressing tumor growth in TNBC mouse models. Mechanistically, KDM3B targets SHP1 by reducing H3K9me2 levels at its promoter. Suppression of KDM3B attenuates SHP1–mediated STING inactivation, which triggers robust type Ⅰ IFN responses. Strikingly, both KDM3B depletion and treatment with the KDM3B–selective inhibitor P3FI–90 significantly suppresses tumor progression and mitigates resistance to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Taken together, these findings establish KDM3B as a key regulator of immune escape, and targeting KDM3B represents a promising strategy to augment the efficacy of immunotherapy for TNBC.

Tumor immunological phenotype signature-based high-throughput screening for the discovery of combination immunotherapy compounds

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy intends to only benefit a fraction of cancer patients, and combination immunotherapy with a compound is a promising treatment to overcome this limitation. Here, a tumor immunological phenotype (TIP) gene signature and high throughput sequencing-based high throughput screening (HTS2) were combined to identify combination immunotherapy compounds. We firstly defined a TIP gene signature, which expression pattern distinguishes “cold” tumors from “hot” tumors, and predicts ICB response in cancer patients. Then, after screening thousands of compounds, we identified that aurora kinase inhibitors, including ENMD-2076 and TAK-901, could reprogram the expression pattern of TIP genes from “cold” tumor to “hot” tumor in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The treatment of aurora kinase inhibitors on TNBC cells dramatically up-regulates expression of Th1 type chemokine genes CXCL10 and CXCL11, which promotes effective T cells infiltrating into tumor microenvironment and significantly improves anti-PD-1 efficacy in inhibiting the tumor growth of TNBC in preclinical models. Mechanistically, these aurora kinase inhibitors are mainly through inhibiting AURKA-STAT3 signaling pathway to stimulate the expression of CXCL10 and CXCL11. Our study established a high throughput strategy to discover candidate compounds for combination immunotherapy, and suggested the therapeutic potential of combining aurora kinase inhibitors with checkpoint blockade immunotherapy for the treatment of TNBC.

A Cryogel-Based Dendritic Cell Vaccine for Post-Surgical Breast Cancer Immunotherapy

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive malignancy with high mortality and limited treatment options. While surgical resection removes the primary tumor, it often fails to prevent recurrence or metastasis, and despite the promise of immunotherapy, the response to immune checkpoint blockade remains poor. Here, we develop a cryogel-based dendritic cell (DC) vaccine that integrates gold nanodot-lipopolysaccharide (AuLPS)-loaded DCs, doxorubicin (Dox), and a PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade, effectively enhancing anti-tumor immunity in the post-surgical setting. The AuLPS nanoparticles (NPs) stabilize LPS assembly, optimizing Th1 adjuvant activity, thereby improving DC vaccine efficacy while minimizing adverse effects. The cryogel enables the sustained localized release of therapeutic agents at the surgical site, preserving DC viability, migration, and functionality within the tumor microenvironment. This strategy enhances DC activation and potentiates robust T-cell activation in both tumor-draining lymph nodes and tumor beds, leading to durable anti-tumor immunity. When administered at the post-surgical site in an orthotopic TNBC model, the aPD-1+Dox+AuLPS@DC cryogel vaccine significantly delays tumor recurrence, reduces distant metastases, and prolongs survival. These findings highlight cryogel-based DC vaccines as a promising post-surgical immunotherapy to overcome the limited response to immune checkpoint blockade and improve TNBC outcomes.

A Dual-Payload Antibody-Drug Conjugate Targeting CD276/B7-H3 Elicits Cytotoxicity and Immune Activation in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive and heterogeneous disease that often relapses following treatment with standard radiotherapies and cytotoxic chemotherapies. Combination therapies have potential for treating refractory metastatic TNBC. Here, we aimed to develop an antibody-drug conjugate with dual payloads (DualADC) as a chemo-immunotherapy for TNBC. The overexpression of an immune checkpoint transmembrane CD276 (also known as B7-H3) was associated with angiogenesis, metastasis, and immune tolerance, in over 60% of TNBC patients. Development of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) capable of targeting the extracellular domain of surface CD276 enabled delivery of payloads to tumors, and a platform was established for concurrent conjugation of a traditional cytotoxic payload and an immunoregulating toll-like receptor 7/8 agonist to the CD276 mAb. The DualADC effectively killed multiple TNBC subtypes, significantly enhanced immune functions in the tumor microenvironment, and reduced tumor burden by up to 90-100% in animal studies. Single-cell RNA-sequencing, multiplex cytokine analysis, and histology elucidated the impact of treatment on tumor cells and the immune landscape. This study suggests that the developed DualADC could represent a promising targeted chemo-immunotherapy for TNBC.

KDM3B inhibitors disrupt PAX3-FOXO1 oncogenic activity in fusion positive rhabdomyosarcoma.

Project description:Fusion-positive alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS) is an aggressive pediatric sarcoma driven primarily by the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene, for which therapies targeting PAX3-FOXO1 are lacking. We screened 62,643 compounds using an engineered cell line that monitors PAX3-FOXO1 transcriptional activity identifying a hitherto uncharacterized compound, PFI-63. RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, and docking analyses implicated histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) as its targets. Enzymatic assays confirmed the inhibition of multiple KDMs with highest selectivity for KDM3B. Structural similarity search of PFI-63 identified PFI-90 with improved solubility and potency. Biophysical binding of PFI-90 to KDM3B was demonstrated using NMR and SPR. PFI-90 suppressed the growth of FP-RMS in vitro and in vivo through downregulating PAX3-FOXO1 activity, and combined knockdown of KDM3B and KDM1A phenocopied PFI-90 effects. Thus, we report novel KDM inhibitors with highest specificity for KDM3B. Its potent suppression of PAX3-FOXO1 activity can be exploited as a new therapeutic approach for FP-RMS and other transcriptionally driven cancers.

KDM3A and KDM3B Maintain Naïve Pluripotency Through the Regulation of Alternative Splicing

Project description:Histone modifying enzymes play a central role in maintaining cell identity by establishing a conducive chromatin environment for lineage specific transcription factor activity. Pluripotent embryonic stem cells (ESCs) identity is characterized by lower abundance of gene repression associated histone modifications that enables rapid response to differentiation cues. The KDM3 histone demethylase family removes the repressive histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2). Here we uncover a surprising role for the KDM3 proteins in the maintenance of the pluripotent state through post-transcriptional regulation. We find through immunoaffinity purification of the KDM3A or KDM3B interactome and proximity ligation assays that KDM3A and KDM3B interact with RNA processing factors such as EFTUD2 and PRMT5. By generating double “degron” ESCs to degrade KDM3A and KDM3B in the rapid timescale of splicing, we find altered splicing, independent of H3K9me2 status. These splicing changes partially resemble the splicing pattern of the more blastocyst-like ground state of pluripotency and occurred in important chromatin and transcription factors such as Dnmt3b, Tbx3 and Tcf12. Our findings reveal non-canonical roles of histone modifying enzymes in splicing to regulate cell identity.

Reorganization of H3K9me heterochromatin leads the neuronal impairment via the cascading destruction of KDM3B-centered epigenomic network

Project description:Histone H3K9 methylated heterochromatin silences repetitive non-coding sequences and lineage-specific genes during development, but how tissue-specific genes escape from heterochromatin in differentiated cells is unclear. Here, we examine age-dependent transcriptomic profiling of terminally differentiated mouse retina to identify epigenetic regulators involved in heterochromatin reorganization. The single-cell RNA sequencing analysis reveal a gradual downregulation of Kdm3b in cone photoreceptors during aging. Disruption of Kdm3b (Kdm3b+/-) of 12-month-old mouse retina leads to the decreasing number of cones via apoptosis, and it changes the morphology of cone ribbon synapses. Integration of transcriptome with epigenomic analysis in Kdm3b+/- retinas demonstrate gains of heterochromatin feature in synapse assembly and vesicle transport genes that are downregulated via the accumulation of H3K9me1/2. Contrary, losses of heterochromatin in apoptotic genes exacerbated retinal neurodegeneration. We propose that KDM3B-centered epigenomic network is crucial for balancing of cone photoreceptor homeostasis via the modulation of gene-set specific heterochromatin features during aging.

Quiescent cancer cells resist T cell attack by forming an immunosuppressive niche (GFP:mCherry 1:1 4T07 mix tumors after Jedi killing Bulk RNA)

Project description:Immunotherapy is a promising treatment for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), but patients recur, arising the need to understand mechanisms of resistance. We discovered that in primary breast cancer, tumor cells that survive T-cell attack are in a quiescent state. Quiescent Cancer Cells (QCCs) are found clustering together forming regions with reduced immune infiltration. QCCs display superior tumorigenic capacity and higher expression of stemness genes than their proliferative counterparts. We adapted single-cell-RNA-sequencing with precise spatial resolution to profile infiltrating cells inside and outside QCC niches. This transcriptomic analysis revealed hypoxia-induced programs and identified more exhausted T-cells, tumor-protective fibroblasts, and dysfunctional dendritic cells inside clusters of QCCs. This uncovered differential phenotypes in infiltrating cells based on their specific intra-tumor location. Thus, QCCs constitute immunotherapy-resistant reservoirs by orchestrating a local hypoxic immune-suppressive milieu that blocks T-cell function. Eliminating QCCs holds the promise to counteract resistance to immunotherapy and prevent disease recurrence in TNBC.
