Project description:The accumulation of acidic metabolic waste products within the tumor microenvironment profoundly inhibits effector functions of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). However, it is unclear whether extracellular-acidosis impacts T cell metabolic fitness and differentiation status. Here, we surprisingly found that prolonged acid exposure reprogrammed T cell intracellular metabolism and mitochondrial fitness, and preserved T cell stemness. Elevated extracellular-acidosis impaired methionine uptake and metabolism via downregulating SLC7A5, therefore altering H3K27me3 deposition at the promoters of crucial T cell stemness genes. These changes promoted the maintenance of a “stem-like memory” state and improved long-term in vivo persistence and anti-tumor efficacy. Our findings not only reveal the unexpected roles of extracellular-acidosis in the maintenance of stem-like properties of T cells, but also advance our understanding of the direct involvement of methionine metabolism in T cell stemness.

Project description:Abnormal epigenetic patterns correlate with effector T cell malfunction in tumors. However, their causal link is unknown. Here, we show that tumor cells disrupt methionine metabolism in CD8+ T cells, thereby lowering intracellular methionine levels and the methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), resulting in loss of H3K79me2. Consequently, loss of H3K79me2 impaired T cell immunity. Our work reveals a novel mechanistic connection between methionine metabolism, histone patterns, and T cell immunity in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Dysregulated metabolism is a key driver of maladaptive tumor-reactive T lymphocytes within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Actionable mechanisms that rescue the effector activity of anti-tumor T cells in a metabolically restricted TME remain elusive. Here, we report that the Sirtuin-2 (Sirt2) protein deacetylase functions as a master metabolic checkpoint that inhibits T cell metabolic fitness and impairs T cell effector functions and anti-tumor immunity. Mechanistically, Sirt2 suppresses glycolysis and oxidative-phosphorylation (OxPhos) by deacetylating key enzymes involved in glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid (TCA)-cycle, fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and glutaminolysis. Accordingly, Sirt2-deficient T cells exhibit a hyper-metabolic activity with increased glycolysis and OxPhos, resulting in enhanced proliferation and effector functions at tumor beds and subsequently exhibiting superior anti-tumor activity. Importantly, pharmacologic inhibition of Sirt2 endows human lung tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) with these superior metabolic fitness and enhanced effector functions. Furthermore, upregulation of Sirt2 expression in human TILs negatively correlates with response to Nivolumab and TIL therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our findings unveil Sirt2 as an unexpected actionable target for reprogramming T cell metabolism to augment a broad spectrum of cancer immunotherapies.

Project description:In the past, animal experiments with rats, by depleting various amino acids in the diet, have shown that a deficiency of methionine inhibits tumor growth at the individual level and that methionine is important in the development and progression of cancer. This methionine is one of the essential amino acids and is the initiation codon that initiates protein translation from mRNA. Methionine is known to be converted to SAM, which is required for nucleic acid synthesis in cancer. Tumors are underdeveloped in an environment deficient in methionine, which is known as the "Hoffman effect". In fact, past reports have shown that in the absence of methionine, tumor growth is suppressed, and methionine has recently been shown to be essential in cancer stem cells or "tumor initiating cells". In addition, the focus on methionine in cancer is said to influence tumor-cell metabolism, histone patterns, and T cell immunity in the cancer microenvironment. In cancer immunity, not only methionine but also its upstream pathways are said to be involved. Tryptophan/niacin, which is located upstream of the methionine cycle, is metabolized to form nicotinamide, and MNAM is formed from the SAM and nicotinamide via nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT). NNMT and MNAM have been reported to participate in the mechanism of inhibition of the apoptosis signal-regulated kinase 1-p38 MAPK pathway, resulting in increased colon cancer cell resistance to 5-FU. NNMTs promote nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide depletion and epigenetic reprogramming, which have been implicated in the development of metabolic plasticity, circumvention of the major tumor suppressive process of cellular senescence, acquisition of stem cell properties, and resistance to therapy and poor clinical outcomes. Also, MNAM synthesized in this methionine cycle is said to suppress T cells and promote cancer. Hence, we implanted the colon cancer cell line HT-29 cultured in normal medium with all nutrients into NOD SCID mice and kept them for 2 weeks on a diet without the aforementioned methionine/tryptophan/niacin. Afterwards, tumors were removed and RNA-sequencing was performed, and a marked increase in the expression of RN7SL1, a non-coding RNA, was observed.
