Project description:We report positional cloning and characterization of a novel Sting allele that fails to activate IFN production in the wild-derived mice of MOLF/Ei strain in response to HSV (Herpes Simplex Virus) and Listeria monocytogenes both in vitro and in vivo. We show that previously uncharacterized mutations in the N-terminal of STING are responsible for low levels of IFN due to failure of MOLF STING to respond to cytosolic STING agonists such as 2â3âcGAMP, 5,6-Dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) or poly(deoxyadenylic-deoxythymidylic) acid (dAdT). Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) for the analysis of DNA-responses in congenic C57BL6.StingMOLF/MOLF (MOLF STING) mouse macrophages, we show that these mutations in MOLF/Ei discriminate in responses between different STING agonists. Macrophages from C57BL6.StingB6/B6¬ (B6 STING), or B6 STING expressing littermates were stimulated as a positive control for STING activation, and STING -/- (STING KO) macrophages served as a negative control. To examine differential gene regulation downstream of murine Tmem173 (STING) allelic variants. We stimulated macrophages from B6 mice congenic for MOLF STING; macrophages from B6 STING expressing littermates were stimulated as a positive control for STING activation, and STING -/- (STING KO) macrophages served as a negative control. One replicate of RNA-seq reads after each stimulation provided. Conditions are peritoneal macrophages from B6 congenic mice expressing: B6 STING, MOLF STING, or STING KO stimulated with 2â3âcGAMP, 5,6-Dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA), poly(deoxyadenylic-deoxythymidylic) acid (dAdT), or no treatment. This constitutes a total of 12 reads analyzed in this data set.

Project description:Type I interferon (IFN) response is the most recognized signaling activity of STING, and IFN signaling is commonly believed to be the major (if not the sole) contributor to STING-mediated anti-viral and anti-cancer responses. Here, we genetically mutated mouse Sting serine 365 residue that is critically required for initiating IFN signaling. Sting-S365A mutation in mice precisely ablated IFN-dependent while preserving IFN-independent activities of STING. To our surprise, StingS365A/S365A mice protected against HSV-1 infection remarkably well, similar to wild type mice, while Sting–/– mice succumbed to infection very quickly. This challenges the current prevailing view and suggests that STING controls HSV-1 infection through IFN-independent activities. Transcriptomic analysis of wild type, Sting–/– and StingS365A/S365A macrophages and T cells stimulated with Sting agonist DMXAA revealed widespread IFN-independent activities of STING in both cell types and identified many T cell effector functions that are activated by STING independently of IFN. In mouse tumor models, we found that T cells in the tumor experience substantial cell death that was in part mediated by STING. Adoptively transferred Sting–/– T cells were more resistant to cell death in the tumor leading to more effective tumor control compared to wild type and StingS365A/S365A T cells. Together, our data demonstrate that mammalian STING possesses widespread IFN-independent activities that are functionally important for restricting Type I interferon (IFN) response is the most recognized signaling activity of STING, and IFN signaling is commonly believed to be the major (if not the sole) contributor to STING-mediated anti-viral and anti-cancer responses.

Project description:To induce chronic IFN-I activation, we injected wildtype and Ifnar1–/– mice with five treatments of DMXAA, a STING agonist, followed by snRNA-seq analysis of hippocampal tissues. In wildtype mice, we showed that microglia had the strongest IFN response to STING activation of all cell types. Ablation of interferon alpha and beta receptor 1 (IFNAR1) abolished microglial IFN-I response and suppression of neuronal MEF2C transcriptional network

Project description:Vascular disrupting agents (VDA) represent a novel approach to the treatment of cancer, resulting in collapse of tumor vasculature and tumor death. 5,6-Dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) is a VDA currently in advanced Phase II clinical trials, yet its precise mechanism of action is unknown despite extensive preclinical and clinical investigations. The data presented herein demonstrate that DMXAA is a novel and specific activator of the TBK1-IRF-3 signaling pathway. DMXAA treatment of primary murine macrophages resulted in robust IRF-3 activation, a ~750-fold increase in IFN-beta mRNA and, in contrast to the potent Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), signaling was independent of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and elicited minimal NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression. DMXAA-induced signaling was critically dependent on the IRF-3 kinase, TBK1, and IRF-3, but MyD88-, TRIF-, IPS-1/MAVS-, and IKKbeta-independent, thus excluding all known TLRs and cytosolic helicase receptors. DMXAA pretreatment of murine macrophages induced a state of tolerance to LPS and vice versa. In contrast to LPS stimulation, DMXAA-induced IRF-3 dimerization and IFN-beta expression were inhibited by salicylic acid (SA). These findings detail a novel pathway for TBK-1-mediated IRF-3 activation and provide new insights into the mechanism of this new class of chemotherapeutic drugs. Experiment Overall Design: Microarray analysis was carried out using Affymetrix® mouse array 430A_2 exposed to total RNA prepared from C57BL/6J or IFN-beta-/- macrophages that had been treated with medium alone or DMXAA for 3 h. Fold-induction was calculated using Affymetrix® GeneChip® Operating Software. A >3-fold increase or decrease between inducible and basal mRNA levels was set as the criteria for inclusion of a gene as modulated.

Project description:The efficacy of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonists is compromised by various factors, primarily inefficient intracellular delivery, low/lack of endogenous STING expression in many tumours and a complex balance between tumour control and progression. Here, we report a universal STING mimic (uniSTING) based on a polymeric architecture. The uniSTING activates STING signalling in a range of mouse and human cell types, independent of endogenous STING expression, and selectively stimulates tumour control IRF3/IFN-I pathways, but not tumour progression NF-κB pathways. Intratumoural or systemic injection of uniSTING-mRNA via lipid nanoparticles (LNP) results in potent anti-tumour efficacy across established and advanced metastatic tumour models, including triple negative breast cancer, lung cancer, melanoma and orthotopic/metastatic liver malignancies. Furthermore, uniSTING displays an effective antitumour response superior to 2’3’-cGAMP and ADU-S100. By favouring IRF3/IFN-I activity over the pro-inflammatory NF-κB signalling pathway, uniSTING promotes dendritic cell maturation and antigen specific CD8+ T cell responses. Extracellular vesicles released from uniSTING-treated tumour cells further sensitise dendritic cells via exosome containing miRNAs that reduced the immunosuppressive Wnt2b and a combination of LNP-uniSTING-mRNA with α-Wnt2b antibodies synergistically inhibit tumour growth and prolong animal survival. Collectively, these results demonstrate the LNP-mediated delivery of uniSTING-mRNA as a strategy to overcome the current STING therapeutic barriers, particularly for the treatment of multiple cancer types in which STING is downregulated or absent.

Project description:Mouse genetic crosses were established between the PyMT model of metastatic breast cancer and MOLF/Ei strain. Tumors were harvested from the animals for gene expression analysis to identify genes associated with progression to distant metastatic disease. Gene expression of 134 samples from the MOLF cross were assayed on Affymetrix chips.
