Project description:Despite recent advances in the treatment of melanoma, many patients with metastatic disease still succumb to their disease. To identify tumor-intrinsic modulators of immunity to melanoma, we performed a whole-genome CRISPR screen in melanoma and identified multiple components of the HUSH complex, including Setdb1, as hits. We found that loss of Setdb1 leads to increased immunogenicity and complete tumor clearance in a CD8+ T-cell dependent manner. Mechanistically, loss of Setdb1 causes de-repression of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) in melanoma cells and triggers tumor-cell intrinsic type-I interferon signaling, upregulation of MHC-I expression, and increased CD8+ T-cell infiltration. Furthermore, spontaneous immune clearance observed in Setdb1-/- tumors results in subsequent protection from other ERV-expressing tumor lines, supporting the functional anti-tumor role of ERV-specific CD8+ T-cells found in the Setdb1-/- microenvironment. Blocking the type-I interferon receptor in mice grafted with Setdb1-/- tumors decreases immunogenicity by decreasing MHC-I expression, leading to decreased T-cell infiltration and increased melanoma growth comparable to Setdb1wt tumors. Together, these results indicate a critical role for Setdb1 and type-I interferons in generating an inflamed tumor microenvironment, and potentiating tumor-cell intrinsic immunogenicity in melanoma. This study further emphasizes regulators of ERV expression and type-I interferon expression as potential therapeutic targets for augmenting anti-cancer immune responses.

Project description:Griffin GK, Wu J, Iracheta-Vellve A, Patti JC, Hsu J, Davis T, Dele-Oni D, Du PP, Halawi A, Ishizuka JJ, Kim S, Klaeger S, Knudsen NH, Miller BC, Nguyen T, Olander K, Papanastasiou M, Rachimi S, Robitschek EJ, Schneider EM, Yeary M, Zimmer M, Jaffe JD, Carr SA, Doench JG, Haining WN, Yates KB, Manguso RT, Bernstein BE. 2020. Epigenetic dysregulation is a defining feature of tumorigenesis and has been implicated in immune escape, yet mechanisms that drive immune evasion are poorly understood. To systematically identify epigenetic factors that modulate the immune sensitivity of tumor cells, we performed in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 screens targeting 936 chromatin regulators in mouse tumor models treated with immune checkpoint blockade. We identified the H3K9-methyltransferase SETDB1 and other members of the HUSH and KAP1 complexes as cell-intrinsic mediators of immune escape in tumor cells. We also found that amplification of SETDB1 (1q21) in human tumors is associated with reduced cytotoxic T-cell infiltration and resistance to immune checkpoint blockade. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that SETDB1 represses broad domains, hundreds of kilobases in size, many of which reside within the open genome compartment. These SETDB1 domains are enriched for transposable elements (TEs) and immune gene clusters associated with segmental duplication events, a central mechanism of mammalian genome evolution. SETDB1 loss derepresses latent TE-encoded regulatory elements and proximal immune genes within these repetitive regions, including canonical co-stimulatory ligands, and induces hundreds of putative TE-encoded viral antigens. Our study establishes SETDB1 as an epigenetic checkpoint that suppresses intrinsic immunogenicity in cancer cells, and thus represents a candidate target for immunotherapy.

Project description:Histone modifications play a crucial role in the progression of various cancers. The histone methyltransferase SETDB1 catalyzes the addition of methyl groups to histone H3 at lysine 9. Here, we describe SETDB1 contribution to melanoma tumorigenesis. SETDB1 is highly amplified in melanoma cells and in patients’ tumors. Increased SETDB1 expression, which correlates with SETDB1 amplification, is associated with a more aggressive phenotype in in vitro and in vivo studies. SETDB1 implements its effects through the regulation of Thrombospondin 1. SETDB1’s SET-domain is essential to maintain its tumorigenic effects. SETDB1 inhibition reduces cell growth in melanomas resistant to targeted treatments. In essence, we support SETDB1 as a major driver of melanoma development, highlighting a role as potential future target for the treatment of this disease.

Project description:The most common mutation in human melanoma, BRAF(V600E), activates the serine/threonine kinase BRAF and causes excessive activity in the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. BRAF(V600E) mutations are also present in benign melanocytic naevi, highlighting the importance of additional genetic alterations in the genesis of malignant tumours. Such changes include recurrent copy number variations that result in the amplification of oncogenes. For certain amplifications, the large number of genes in the interval has precluded an understanding of the cooperating oncogenic events. Here we have used a zebrafish melanoma model to test genes in a recurrently amplified region of chromosome 1 for the ability to cooperate with BRAF(V600E) and accelerate melanoma. SETDB1, an enzyme that methylates histone H3 on lysine 9 (H3K9), was found to accelerate melanoma formation significantly in zebrafish. Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with massively parallel DNA sequencing and gene expression analyses uncovered genes, including HOX genes, that are transcriptionally dysregulated in response to increased levels of SETDB1. Our studies establish SETDB1 as an oncogene in melanoma and underscore the role of chromatin factors in regulating tumorigenesis. DNA was enriched from short-term cultures of cells and chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIPs) were analyzed by Solexa sequencing. ChIPs were performed using an antibody against SetDB1 in WM853.2. Whole cell extracts are provided for WM262, WM451Lu and WM853.2 cells.
