Antibody-lectin chimeras for glyco-immune checkpoint blockade

ABSTRACT: Despite the curative potential of checkpoint blockade immunotherapy, most patients remain unresponsive to existing treatments. Glyco-immune checkpoints – interactions of cell-surface glycans with lectin, or glycan-binding, immunoreceptors – have emerged as prominent mechanisms of immune evasion and therapeutic resistance in cancer. Here, we describe antibody-lectin chimeras (AbLecs), a modular platform for glyco-immune checkpoint blockade. AbLecs are bispecific antibody-like molecules comprising a cell-targeting antibody domain and a lectin “decoy receptor” domain that directly binds glycans and blocks their ability to engage inhibitory lectin receptors. AbLecs potentiate anticancer immune responses including phagocytosis and cytotoxicity, outperforming most existing therapies and combinations tested. By targeting a distinct axis of immunological regulation, AbLecs synergize with blockade of established immune checkpoints. AbLecs can be readily designed to target numerous tumor and immune cell subsets as well as glyco-immune checkpoints, and therefore represent a new modality for cancer immunotherapy.

Synthetic Siglec-9 agonists inhibit neutrophil activation associated with COVID-19

Project description:Severe cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are characterized by a hyperinflammatory immune response that leads to numerous complications. Production of proinflammatory neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) has been suggested to be a key factor in inducing a hyperinflammatory signaling cascade, allegedly causing both pulmonary tissue damage and peripheral inflammation. If true, finding ways to inhibit NET production could provide therapeutic strategies to prevent respiratory damage and death from SARS-CoV-2 related inflammation. Here, we demonstrate that synthetic glycopolymers that activate signaling of the neutrophil checkpoint receptor Siglec-9 suppress NETosis induced by agonists of viral TLR receptors and COVID-19 plasma. Thus, Siglec-9 represents an attractive therapeutic target to curb neutrophilic hyperinflammation in COVID-19.

The immune checkpoint TIGIT is upregulated on T cells during bacterial infection and is a potential target for immunotherapy

Project description:Antibiotic resistance is a major public health threat, and alternatives to antibiotic therapy are urgently needed. Immunotherapy, particularly the blockade of inhibitory immune checkpoints, is a leading treatment option in cancer and autoimmunity. In this study, we used a murine model of Salmonella Typhimurium infection to investigate whether immune checkpoint blockade could be applied to bacterial infection. We found that the immune checkpoint T-cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT) was significantly upregulated on lymphocytes during infection, particularly on CD4+ T cells, drastically limiting their proinflammatory function. Blockade of TIGIT in vivo using monoclonal antibodies was able to enhance immunity and improve bacterial clearance. The efficacy of anti-TIGIT was dependent on the capacity of the antibody to bind to Fc (fragment crystallizable) receptors, giving important insights into the mechanism of anti-TIGIT therapy. This research suggests that targeting immune checkpoints, such as TIGIT, has the potential to enhance immune responses toward bacteria and restore antibacterial treatment options in the face of antibiotic resistance. In this experiment, we investigated the effect of TIGIT on CD4+ T cells by performing bulk RNA-sequencing on WT or TIGIT-/- CD4+ T cells in the context of S. Typhimurium infection.

Gene Expression Profiling of human monocytes: Combination Therapy with AntiâCTLA-4 and AntiâPD-1 Leads to Distinct Immunologic Changes In Vivo

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of human peripheral blood monocytes Combination therapy concurrently targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints leads to remarkable antitumor effects. Although both PD-1 and CTLA-4 dampen the T cell activation, the in vivo effects of these drugs in humans remain to be clearly defined. To better understand biologic effects of therapy, we analyzed blood/tumor tissue from patients undergoing single or combination immune checkpoint blockade. We show that blockade of CTLA-4, PD-1, or combination of the two leads to distinct genomic (changes in gene-expression profile) and functional signatures in vivo in purified human T cells and monocytes. RNA extracted from freshly isolated monocytes from peripheral blood of patients treated with either antiâPD-1 (n = 6), antiâCTLA-4 (n = 5), Combo therapy with antiâPD-1 and antiâCTLA-4 concurrently (Combo, n = 6), and Seq antiâPD-1 in patients with prior antiâCTLA-4 (Seq, n = 3) was analyzed using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Transcriptome 2.0 exon array. No techinical replicates were performed.

Modulation of immune cell reactivity with cis-binding Siglec-9 agonists

Project description:Primary inflammatory pathologies caused by phagocytes lead to numerous debilitating conditions, ranging from chronic pain to permanent blindness. Siglec-9 is an immunoinhibitory receptor expressed on many types of phagocytes and is a promising target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. We developed a lipid-tethered glycopolypeptide that spontaneously inserts into cell membranes and specifically binds Siglec-9 in cis on the surface of cells. We demonstrate that when inserted in a cell membrane and cis-binding, but not as a soluble trans-binding agent, this glycopolypeptide and agonizes Siglec-9, inhibiting inflammatory activity in reporter systems, phagocytic cell lines, and primary human macrophages. Thus, membrane-tethered cis-agonists of Siglec-9 are a new modality for therapeutic suppression of immune cell reactivity.

Single-cell RNAseq of α-PD-1 relapsing YUMM2.1 tumours subsequently treated with PARP14i in vivo

Project description:PD-1 signalling blockade is highly effective at restoring immune surveillance and treating melanoma. However, redundant immune homeostatic mechanisms driven by chronic IFNγ signalling can lead to ongoing immune evasion and acquired resistance. PARP14 mediates IFNγ-driven resistance, and prolongs responsiveness to PD-1 blockade in preclinical models. Here we present a single cell RNAseq of immune cells from α-PD-1 relapsing mouse tumours, following subsequent PARP14i treatments alone and in combination with α-PD-1. Our findings highlight a robust PARP14i gene signature associated with improved patient survival, suggesting its potential to enhance PD-1 blockade efficacy.

SugarQuant: a streamlined pipeline for multiplexed quantitative site-specific N-glycoproteomics

Project description:Site-specific regulation of protein N-glycosylation is essential in human cells. However, accurate quantification of glycosylation sites and their individual glycan moieties in a cell-wide manner is still technically challenging. Here, we introduce SugarQuant, an integrated mass spectrometry-based pipeline comprising fast protein aggregation capture (PAC)-based sample preparation, optimized multi-notch MS3 LC-MS acquisition (Glyco-SPS-MS3) and a data-processing tool (GlycoBinder) that allows for confident, global identification and quantification of intact glycopeptides in complex biological samples. PAC greatly reduces the overall sample-handling time without compromising sensitivity. Glyco-SPS-MS3 combines high-resolution MS2 and MS3 scans, resulting in enhanced reporter signals of isobaric mass tags, improved detection of N-glycopeptide fragments, and significantly lowered interference in multiplexed quantification. GlycoBinder enables streamlined processing of Glyco-SPS-MS3 data, followed by a two-step database search which increases the identification rates of intact glycopeptides by up to 22% when compared with one-step database search strategies. SugarQuant was applied to identify and quantify more than 5,000 unique glycoforms in Burkitt’s lymphoma cells, and determined complex site-specific glycosylation changes that occurred upon inhibition of fucosylation at high confidence.

Transcription profiling of human single B cells isolated from patients deficient for IL-1R-associated kinase (IRAK)-4, myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) and UNC-93B

Project description:Most autoreactive B cells are normally counterselected during early B cell development. To determine whether Toll-like receptors (TLRs) regulate the removal of autoreactive B lymphocytes, we tested the reactivity of recombinant antibodies from single B cells isolated from patients deficient for IL-1R-associated kinase (IRAK)-4, myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) and UNC-93B. Indeed, all TLRs except TLR3 require IRAK-4 and MyD88 to signal and UNC-93B-deficient cells are unresponsive to TLR3, TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9. All patients suffered from defective central and peripheral B cell tolerance checkpoints resulting in the accumulation of large numbers of autoreactive mature naÃ¯ve B cells in their blood. Hence, TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9 may prevent the recruitment of developing autoreactive B cells in healthy donors. Paradoxically, IRAK-4-, MyD88- and UNC-93B-deficient patients did not display autoreactive antibodies in their serum nor developed autoimmune diseases, suggesting that IRAK-4, MyD88 and UNC-93B pathway blockade may thwart autoimmunity in humans. Experiment Overall Design: RNA was extracted from 105-3.105 batch sorted new emigrant and mature naÃ¯ve B cells isolated from donors using the Absolutely RNA microprep kit (Stratagene). 100-200 ng of RNA was obtained per sample, and the quality of the purified RNA was assessed by the Bioanalyzer from Agilent. Using the Ovation biotin system kit from Nugen, 30-50ng of RNA was amplified and labeled to produce cDNA. Labeled cDNA was hybridized on chips containing the whole human genome (Human Genome U133 2.0 from Affymetrix). Raw data from new emigrant (1 healthy donor) and mature naive (4 healthy donors) B cells were analyzed in order to determine the expression of some molecules involved in the TLR pathway in these B cell population in humans.
