Project description:Disruption in proteostasis is a hallmark of cancer, with aberrations in proteasome-mediated degradation highly implicated in this malignancy. Proteasomes further bear critical importance in tumor immunogenicity by regulating inflammatory signaling, promoting immune cell activation and playing a crucial role in antigen processing and presentation. Indeed, response to immunotherapy in melanoma patients has been recently linked to increased expression of immunoproteasomes, a specialized form of proteasomes that are upregulated under inflammatory conditions. Yet, the percentage of patients that respond to therapy remains low, and the underlying mechanisms driving resistance remain poorly understood. Further, comprehensive analysis of the role proteasomes play in the pathophysiology of cancer and as a modulator of anti-tumor immunity is remains lacking. Here, we show that proteasome complex composition varies across cancer types and can be used to stratify patient response to immunotherapy. Specifically, we found that the proteasome regulator PSME4 is upregulated in NSCLC and associated with poor prognosis. We show that PSME4 alters proteasome activity and antigen processing attenuating the antigenic diversity and presentation. Through exacting biochemical assays, proteasome profiling of patient-derived NSCLC samples, combined with scRNA-seq, immunopeptidomics and in vivo analyses we uncovered a novel mechanism of immune evasion mediated by PSME4, which promotes an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and abrogates anti-tumor immunity. Collectively, our approach may be adapted to other cancer types and pathological settings and affords a novel paradigm by which proteasome composition heterogeneity should be examined and targeted in the context of precision oncology.

Project description:We observed that proteasome regulator PSME4 inhibits antigen presentation and reduces cellular inflammation in lung adenocarcinoma. As tumor inflammation and antigenicity are key to anti-tumor immunity, we examined the effect of PSME4 in vivo by injecting mice with either KP1.9 or KP1.9PSME4_KD lung adenocarcinoma. We analyzed the changes in the immune milieu by performing single cell RNA sequencing (sc-RNA seq) of CD45+ cells, 3 weeks following injection of tumor cells. This allowed us to examine the effect of PSME4 on the early immune response to the tumor.

Project description:Alterations in cellular antigen processing and presenting machinery has gained increased interest as a hallmark of cancer-related inflammation. Growing evidence suggest that proteasome composition and immunoproteasome expression can influence the efficacy of cancer therapies. By applying proteasome foot-printing to clinical samples of Non Small Cell lung Cancer (NSCLC), we found tumor specific alterations in degradation products and increased expression of the proteasome regulator, PA200. We show that increased levels of PA200 alter the cleavage specificities of proteasomal-cleaved peptides and reduce antigenicity. We found that smoking-induced expression of PA200 abrogated immunoproteasome activity and is associated with poor survival. As immunotherapy is becoming a common treatment of NSCLC, we hypothesized that PA200 expression may contribute to resistance mechanism to immunotherapy. Consistent with this possibility, we found that the ratio between PA200 and the immunoproteasome subunit PSMB10, and not their absolute levels, were significantly associated with poor response to Durvalamab. Induced reduction in PA200 in vivo was associated with increased immune infiltration and attenuated tumor growth.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy is a cornerstone of oncologic treatment for patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other malignancies. Neoantigen immunoediting drives ICB efficacy, yet the fundamental physiochemical characteristics of neoantigens and how neoantigen immunogenicity shapes treatment response remains poorly understood. To help address these questions, a prospective clinical trial of NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab was conducted. We assessed genomic alterations in tumors from 58 patients and performed large-scale neoepitope immunogenicity analyses, before and during treatment (CheckMate153, CA209-153). Tumors were analyzed by whole-exome and transcriptome sequencing. In responding patients, loss of mutation and neoantigen burden early during therapy associated with clinical benefit. We evaluated the immunogenicity of 1,453 candidate neoantigens and identified 502 neopeptides that bound to MHC I and 196 neopeptides that were immunogenically recognized by T cells in the setting of nivolumab treatment. These T cell reactive neoantigens were differentially present in clonal populations that underwent distinctive evolutionary trajectories across responders and nonresponders. Mapping these neoantigens to tumor clonal dynamics and clinical response revealed strong selection against immunogenic neoantigen harboring clones compared to non-immunogenic clones. Using this large collection of neoantigens, we identified position specific amino acid features related to immunogenicity, which we used to develop and validate an immunogenicity score. Changes in the genomic and neoantigen immunogenicity landscapes were accompanied by temporal changes in the tumor microenvironment. Nivolumab-induced microenvironmental evolution in NSCLC shared some similarities with that in melanoma, yet critical differences in immunologic programs were apparent from comparative network analysis between tumor types. This study provides unprecedented molecular portraits of the neoantigen landscapes underlying nivolumab’s mechanism of action.

Project description:The transcription factor SOX2 required for pluripotency, is amplified in 40% of the lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) cases. However, a long-term survival analysis using TCGA cohorts of LUSC patients revealed no significant differences between high versus low SOX2 expressing cases. The treatment options for irresectable LUSC are limited to chemotherapy where carboplatin or cisplatin is given in combination with gemcitabine. However, drug resistance remains a serious concern. We previously showed integrin β4 (ITGB4) and paxillin (PXN) play a critical role in platinum resistance in LUAD. Heterogenous NSCLC cells that up-regulate ITGB4 and PXN epigenetically, can switch phenotypes from cisplatin sensitive to tolerant. However, the significance of ITGB4 expression in SOX2 driven cancer stem cells (CSCs) in NSCLC remains unappreciated. In this study, we isolated CSCs from LUSC patients and characterized them. We elucidated the significance of ITGB4 and SOX2 expression in maintaining the stemness of CSCs and their response to cisplatin treatment. Finally, we showed that the proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib (CFZ) targets SOX2 dependent CSCs and this function of CFZ is independent of its proteasome inhibitory function.

Project description:The proteasome maintains protein quality during aging and disease. Challenges to proteasome function can be compensated by local proteasome stress responses. However, whereas proteasome stress is also sensed systemically is unknown. In Drosophila , we find that proteasome stress in skeletal muscle non-autonomously promotes the degradation of proteasome substrates in distant tissues during aging. Several muscle-secreted factors (myokines) are upregulated by proteasomal stress via C/EBP transcription factors, including the amylase Amyrel, which increases the circulating levels of the disaccharide maltose. Muscle-specific Amyrel overexpression promotes the degradation of proteasome substrates in the aging brain and retina via the transcriptional induction of chaperones and proteases. Conversely, RNAi for maltose transporters worsens proteostasis and reduces the expression of Amyrel-induced genes in the brain. Moreover, maltose preserves protein quality in cell culture and human cortical brain organoids challenged by thermal stress. Thus, proteasome stress in skeletal muscle mounts a systemic adaptive response via amylase/maltose signaling.
