Project description:The anti-leukemia activity of NK cells helps to prevent relapse during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in leukemia patients. However, the factors that determine sensitivity or resistance of leukemia cells in the context of NK-mediated cytotoxicity are not well established. Here we performed a genome-wide CRIPSR screen in the human chronic-myelogenous-leukemia (CML) cell line K562 to identify genes that regulate vulnerability of leukemia cells to killing by primary human NK cells. Distribution of guide RNAs (gRNAs) in K562 cells that survived co-incubation with NK cells showed that loss of NCR3LG1, which encodes the ligand of the natural cytotoxicity receptor NKp30, protected K562 cells from killing. In contrast, loss of genes that regulate pathways for antigen-presentation and interferon-gamma-signaling increased the vulnerability of K562 cells. Addition of IFN-gamma neutralizing antibody increased the susceptibility of K562 cells to NK-mediated killing. Upregulation of MHC class I on K562 cells after co-incubation with NK cells was dependent on IFNGR2. Analysis of RNA-seq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) showed that low IFNGR2 expression in cancer tissues associated with improved overall survival in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (KIRC) patients. Our results showing that upregulation of MHC class I by NK-derived IFN-gamma leads to resistance to NK cytotoxicity suggest that targeting IFN-gamma responses might be a promising approach to enhance NK cell anti-cancer efficacy.

Project description:CRISPR screens uncover CRTC3 as a regulator of IFN-γ induced ferroptosis in hepato-cellular carcinoma [CRISPR screen]

Project description:Gamma interferon (IFN-γ) was reported to exhibit anti-tumor effects via inducing ferroptosis. Based on genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screens, we discovered that cAMP response ele-ment binding protein (CREB) regulated transcription coactivator3 (CRTC3) protects tumor cells from drug induced ferroptosiis and is a significant resister of IFN-γ treatment in hepatocellular car-cinoma (HCC). Mechanically, CRTC3 knockout alters tumor cell lipid pattern and increases the abundance of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which facilitates lipid peroxidation and renders HCC cells susceptible to ferroptosis inducers. To scavenge accumulated lipid peroxides (LPO) and maintain redox equilibrium, HCC cells upregulate SLC7A11 expression to enhance the activity of glutamate-cystine antiporter (system xc-). As IFN-γ inhibiting system xc-, simultaneously treatment of IFN-γ disrupts the compensatory mechanism, and generates a synergistic effect with CRTC3 knockout to facilitate ferroptosis. The sensitizing effect of CRTC3 depletion was further confirmed in typical ferroptosis inducers including RSL3, Erastin and Sorafeinib. Here, we reported a hitherto unexpected role of CRTC3 in regulating PUFAs metabolism and ferroptosis. Targeting the CRTC3 signaling in combination with ferroptosis inducers may represent a viable approach to treat cancer and overcome drug resistance in HCC.

Project description:Background Natural killer (NK) cells exhibit potent cytotoxic activity against various cancer cell types. Over the past five decades, numerous methodologies have been employed to elucidate the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying NK cell-mediated tumor control. While significant progress has been made in elucidating the interactions between NK cells and tumor cells, the regulatory factors governing NK cell-mediated tumor cell destruction are not yet fully understood. This includes the diverse array of tumor ligands recognized by NK cells and the mechanisms that NK cells employ to eliminate tumor cells. Methods In this study, we employed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screening approach in conjunction with functional cytotoxicity assays to delineate the proteins modulating the susceptibility of colon adenocarcinoma HCT-116 cells to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Results Analysis of guide RNA (gRNA) distribution in HCT-116 cells that survived co-incubation with NK cells identified ICAM-1 as a pivotal player in the NKp44-mediated immune synapse, with NKp44 serving as an activating receptor crucial for the elimination of HCT-116 tumor cells by NK cells. Furthermore, disruption of genes involved in the apoptosis or IFN-γ signaling pathways conferred resistance to NK cell attack. We further dissected that NK cell-derived IFN-γ promotes mitochondrial apoptosis in vitro and exerts control over B16-F10 lung metastases in vivo. Conclusion Monitoring ICAM-1 levels on the surface of tumor cells or modulating its expression should be considered in the context of NK cell-based therapy. Additionally, considering the diffusion properties of IFN-γ, our findings highlight the potential of leveraging NK cell-derived IFN-γ to enhance direct tumor cell killing and facilitate bystander effects via cytokine diffusion, warranting further investigation.

Project description:Therefore, to gain a deeper understanding of the interaction between NK cells and B-cell malignancies, we performed here a genome-wide CRISPR screen in the 721.221 cell line (referred to as 221), an EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid B-cell line. This cell line had been selected for the loss of classical HLA-I genes [14] and is therefore sensitive to lysis by NK cells. As expected, the loss of ligands for NK activation receptors resulted in reduced sensitivity. However, deletion of a few other genes, including Signal Peptide Peptidase-Like 3 (SPPL3), had the greatest impact on resistance to lysis by NK cells. Here, we describe how SPPL3 is a crucial controller of the interaction between NK cells and their targets. We found that the increased amount of complex N-glycans in SPPL3-deleted tumor cells limits the binding of NK cell receptors and facilitates immune evasion. We further identified glycosyl transferases that were responsible for the resistant phenotype through a secondary screen in SPPL3-deleted cells and analysis of mutations that restored sensitivity to lysis by NK cells.

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune system that are involved in controlling tumors or microbial infections through the production of interferon gamma (IFN-γ). Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) inhibits IFN-γ secretion by NK cells, but the mechanism underlying this effect remains unclear. Here, by comparing the multi-omics profiles of human NK cells before and after in vivo G-CSF treatment, we identified a pathway that was activated in response to G-CSF treatment, which suppressed IFN-γ secretion in NK cells. Specifically, our integrative genomic strategy revealed glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activation in NK cells that mediated the genomic response to G-CSF treatment. Activated GRs can inhibit secretion of IFN-γ by promoting interactions between suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) promoter and enhancer, as well as increase the expression of SOCS1. Experiments in mice confirmed that G-CSF in vivo treatment significantly down-regulated IFN-γ secretion and up-regulated GR and SOCS1 expression in NK cells. In addition, GR blockade (RU486) significantly reversed the effects of G-CSF, demonstrating that GR up-regulates SOCS1 and inhibits the production of IFN-γ by NK cells.
