Project description:Despite substantial progress that has been made in understanding how tumors escape immune surveillance, measures to counteract tumor immune evasion have been limited. Suppression of tumor antigen expression is a common adaptive mechanism that cancers use to evade detection and destruction by the immune system. Epigenetic modifications play a critical role in in various aspects of immune invasion, including the regulation of tumor antigen expression. To identify novel epigenetic regulators of tumor antigen expression, we established a transplantable syngeneic tumor model of immune escape with silenced antigen expression and used this system as a platform for a CRISPR-Cas9 suppressor screen targeting genes encoding epigenetic modifiers. We found that genetic disruption of the chromatin modifiers Atf7ip or its interacting partner Setdb1 in tumor cells restored tumor antigen expression, resulting in augmented tumor immunogenicity concomitant with elevated endogenous retroviral antigens (ERVs), mRNA intron retention. ERVs disinhibition was associated with a robust type I interferon response and increased T cell infiltration, leading to rejection of cells lacking intact Atf7ip or Setdb1. ATF7IP or SETDB1 expression inversely correlated with antigen processing and presentation pathways, interferon signaling, and T cell infiltration and cytotoxicity in human cancers. Our results provide a rationale for targeting Atf7ip or Setdb1 in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:Monocytic acute myeloid leukemia (AML) responds poorly to current treatments, including venetoclax-based therapy. We conducted in vivo and in vitro CRISPR/Cas9 library screenings using a mouse monocytic AML model, and identified SETDB1 and its binding partners (ATF7IP and TRIM33) as crucial tumor promoters in vivo. The growth-inhibitory effect of Setdb1 depletion in vivo was mainly dependent on NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Mechanistically, SETDB1 depletion upregulated interferon-stimulated genes and NKG2D ligands through demethylation of histone H3 Lys9 at the monocyte-specific enhancer regions, thereby enhancing their immunogenicity to NK cells and intrinsic apoptosis. Importantly, these effects were not observed in non-monocytic leukemia cells. We also identified the expression of MNDA and its murine counterpart Ifi203 as biomarkers to predict the sensitivity of each AML to SETDB1 depletion. Our study highlights the critical and selective role of SETDB1 in monocytic AML and underscores its potential as a therapeutic target for current unmet needs.

Project description:T helper 17 cells (Th17) are critical for fighting infections at mucosal surfaces, however, they have also been found to contribute to the pathogenesis of multiple autoimmune diseases and Th17 cells have been targeted therapeutically. Due to the role of Th17 cells in autoimmune pathogenesis, it is important to understand the factors that control Th17 development. Here we identify the activating transcription factor 7 interacting protein (ATF7ip) as a critical regulator of Th17 differentiation. Mice with T-cell-specific deletion of Atf7ip have impaired Th17 differentiation secondary to the aberrant overproduction of IL-2 with T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation and are resistant to colitis in vivo. ChIP-seq studies identified ATF7ip as an inhibitor of Il2 gene expression through the deposition of the repressive histone mark H3K9me3 in the Il2-Il21 intergenic region. These results demonstrate a new epigenetic pathway by which IL-2 production is constrained and this may open up new avenues for modulating its production.

Project description:Method: To study the effector response of Atf7ip, a) we infected Atf7ip+/fl and Atf7ipfl/fl mice with lcmv . RNAseq was performed using CD8 T cells isolated from Lymph node and Spleen of Het and KO mice. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy Mini Kit as per manufacturers protocol. The RNA-Seq was performed by UCSF core using Illumina Platform. RNAseq was also carried out using naive CD8 T cells isolated from Atf7ip+/fl and Atf7ipfl/fl mice along with Atf7ip+/fl and Atf7ipfl/fl CD8 T cells stimulated for 72 hrs. This set of samples were sequenced using commercial facility from Genewiz, USA. Results: Our transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) identified, Il7r, Runx3 etc. to be upregulated in the Atf7ipfl/fl CD8 T cells as compared to the Atf7ip+/fl CD8 T cells.

Project description:The transcriptional regulator Mga of Streptococcus pyogenes (the group A streptococcus, GAS) is known to directly activate several virulence genes important for colonization and immune evasion during exponential growth. Transcriptome analysis comparing two mga-1 serotypes (M1 SF370, M6 JRS4) and one mga-2 serotype (M4 GA40634) against their isogenic mga-inactivated strains uncovered a broader Mga regulon profile containing both activated and repressed genes with predicted functions primarily related to the uptake and metabolism of sugars. Although the divergent M1 and M4 Mga profiles were similar in size and content, the M6 JRS4 strain was clearly distinct, even from other M6 strains. Real-time RT-PCR and northern blot analysis validated our microarray results and confirmed that established core Mga regulon genes directly activated by Mga (emm, scpA, sof, fba) exhibited the highest activation levels across all strains tested. A novel ORF (Spy2036) encoding a cytosolic hypothetical protein was highly activated in all three serotypes and was called gene regulated by Mga or grm. Mga was shown to bind directly to Pgrm, which overlaps the Mga-regulated Psof in OF+ strains, suggesting that grm is part of the core Mga regulon and is able to activate two divergently transcribed genes from a single site in a class II background. Both class and serotype specific Mga-regulated genes, such as speB, were apparent. In fact, Mga activated speB as long as it was expressed in the wild type strain, although direct binding of Mga to the PspeB promoter could not be demonstrated. Thus, Mga is able to both directly and indirectly regulate genes shown to be important for virulence and the metabolic homeostasis of GAS. Keywords: Wild-type vs Mga-
