TLR2/6 agonists and IFNgamma induce CXCL10 from melanoma

ABSTRACT: Clinical approaches to treat advanced melanoma include immune therapies, whose benefits depend on tumor-reactive T-cells to infiltrate metastases. However, most tumors lack significant immune infiltration prior to therapy, and some immune therapies are hindered by a persistent lack of immune cell infiltration. CXCL10 has been implicated as a critical chemokine supporting T-cell migration into tumors; thus agents that induce CXCL10 in tumors may improve patient responses to systemic immune therapy. We find that melanoma cells treated with TLR2/6 agonists (MALP-2 or FSL-1) and interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) upregulate CXCL10 production, when compared to IFNgamma treatment alone or no treatment. Gene profiling of melanoma cells lines treated with TLR2/6 agonists and IFNgamma demonstrate that a selective profile of genes are induced which may be favorable for promoting immune cell infiltration of tumors. TLR2 and TLR6 are widely expressed on human melanoma cells, and treatment of melanoma cells with TLR2/6 agonists and IFNgamma does not hinder melanoma cell apoptosis or promote proliferation. Furthermore, melanoma cells from surgically resected patient tumors upregulate CXCL10 production after treatment with TLR2/6 agonists and IFNgamma when compared to treatment with either agent alone. Collectively, these data identify TLR2/6 agonists and IFNgamma as a novel target for promoting CXCL10 production directly from melanoma cells. Samples from four human melanoma cell lines, VMM1 (n=6), DM13 (n=6), DM93 (n=6) and VMM39 (n=6), were treated with media alone, MALP-2 (TLR2/6 agonist), FSL-1 (TLR2/6 agonist), IFNgamma alone, MALP-2 and IFNgamma, or FSL-1 and IFNgamma.

Type-1-cytokines synergize with oncogene inhibition to induce tumor growth arrest

Project description:Both targeted inhibition of oncogenic driver mutations and immune-based therapies show efficacy in treatment of patients with metastatic cancer but responses are either short-lived or incompletely effective. Oncogene inhibition can augment the efficacy of immune-based therapy but mechanisms by which these two interventions might cooperate are incompletely resolved. Using a novel transplantable BRAFV600E-mutant murine melanoma model (SB-3123), we explore potential mechanisms of synergy between the selective BRAFV600E inhibitor vemurafenib and adoptive cell transfer (ACT)-based immunotherapy. We found that vemurafenib cooperated with ACT to delay melanoma progression but surprisingly did not enhance tumor infiltration or effector function of endogenous or adoptively transferred CD8+ T cells as previously observed. Instead, we found that the T cell cytokines IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha synergized with vemurafenib to induce cell cycle arrest of tumor cells in vitro. This was recapitulated in vivo as continuous vemurafenib administration was required to delay melanoma progression following ACT. The unexpected finding that immune cytokines synergize with oncogene inhibitors to induce growth arrest have major implications for understanding cancer biology at the intersection of oncogenic and immune signaling and provides a basis for design of combinatorial therapeutic approaches for patients with metastatic cancer. SB-3123p cells were treated in triplicate (biological replicates) under the following conditions for 96 hours: DMSO vehicle (control) (n=3); mouse IFNgamma (2.4 ng/ml) and mouse TNFalpha (0.24 ng/mL) (n=3); Vemurafenib (1uM) (n=3); and mouse IFNgamma (2.4 ng/ml), mouse TNFalpah (0.24 ng/mL) and Vemurafenib (1uM) (n=3).

Identification of a new pathway for Th1 cell development induced by cooperative stimulation with IL-4 and TGFbeta [Agilent]

Project description:IL-4 plays an important role in the induction of Th2 and Th9 cells as well as in the inhibition of Th1 cell generation. We herein show that a combination of IL-4 and TGFbeta augment the development of Th1 cells that express CD103 (CD103+ Th1 cells) if IFNgamma is present. The T-box containing transcription factor, eomesodermin (Eomes) is preferentially expressed in CD103+ Th1 cells, and is involved in IFNgamma production. The induction of T-bet during early T cell activation is essential for the formation of the active chromatin at both the Eomes and IFNgamma gene loci. TGFbeta is required for the induction of Eomes and CD103, as well as the inhibition of Th2 cytokine expression. In addition, IL-4 induces Eomes transcription through activation of the Stat6 signaling pathway. IFNgamma-producing CD103+ Th1 cells are detected in the IEL of normal mice, and their numbers significantly decrease in Tbet- and Stat6-deficient mice. These results represent the first molecular mechanism of IL-4/TGFbeta-dependent augmentation of Th1 cell generation, and raise the possibility that IL-4 and TGFbeta may simultaneously enhance the Th1 cell-mediated immune responses under certain cytokine conditions. Th9+IFNgamma and Th9 cells are profiled for mRNA expression

TLR2/6 agonists and IFNlambda induce CXCL10 from melanoma

Project description:Melanoma is the most lethal form of skin cancer. Clinical efforts to combat melanoma include immune therapies whose benefit depends on antitumor T-cells, to target and to clear melanoma. However, most tumors lack significant immune infiltration prior to therapy, and some immune therapies are hindered by a persistent lack of immune-cell infiltration. Chemokines can promote T-cell migration into tumors; therefore, agents that induce T-cell attracting chemokines in the tumor microenvironment could potentially improve the clinical activity of current immune therapies for melanoma. CXCL10 has been implicated as a critical chemokine supporting T-cell infiltration into the tumor microenvironment. Here we report that combination treatment of human melanoma cell lines with Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2/6 agonists MALP-2 or FSL-1 +IFNlambda synergize to induce production of immune-cell attracting chemokines CCL3 and CXCL10 by melanoma cells. We find that TLR2 and TLR6 are widely expressed on human melanoma cells, and that stimulation of fresh patient melanoma specimens with TLR2/6 agonists+IFNlambda induces CXCL10 production from melanoma cells, endothelial and immune-cells. Furthermore, ex vivo migration assays demonstrate that stimulation of melanoma cells with TLR2/6 agonists+IFNlambda increases CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell migration toward melanoma. Collectively, these data identify a novel synergy of TLR2/6 agonists+IFNlambda for inducing CXCL10 production by melanoma cells and suggest that intralesional administration of TLR2/6 agonists+IFNlambda may improve immune signatures in melanoma metastases and have value in combination with other immune therapies, by supporting better T-cell migration to melanoma.

Immunologic Effects of a Peptide Vaccine with Intralesional IFNgamma For Treatment of Melanoma

Project description:Introduction: Optimal approaches to induce T-cell infiltration of tumors are not known. Chemokines CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11 support effector T-cell recruitment, and may be induced by IFNgamma. This study tests the hypothesis that intratumoral administration of IFNgamma will induce CXCL9-11, and will induce T-cell recruitment and anti-tumor immune signatures in melanoma metastases. Patients and Methods: Nine eligible patients were immunized with a vaccine comprised of 12 class I MHC-restricted melanoma peptides (12MP) and received IFNgamma intratumorally. Effects on the tumor microenvironment (TME) were evaluated in sequential tumor biopsies. Adverse events (AE; CTCAE v4) were recorded. T-cell responses to vaccination were assessed in peripheral blood (PBMC) by IFNgamma ELIspot assay. Tumor biopsies were evaluated for immune cell infiltration, chemokine protein expression and gene expression. Results: Vaccination and intratumoral administration of IFNgamma were well tolerated. Circulating T-cell responses to vaccine were detected in 6 of 9 patients. IFNgamma increased production of chemokines CXCL10, CXCL11, and CCL5 in patient tumors. Neither vaccination alone nor the addition of IFNgamma promoted immune cell infiltration or induced anti-tumor immune gene signatures. Conclusion: The cancer vaccine did not significantly increase T-cell infiltration of tumors. This study provides intriguing findings highlighting some of the limitations of intratumoral IFNgamma treatment. Although IFNgamma is pivotal in anti-tumor immunity, single intratumoral injection may induce secondary immune regulation that paradoxically limits immune infiltration and effector functions. Therefore, alternate dosing strategies or additional combinatorial treatments may be needed to optimally promote trafficking and retention of T-cells in tumor, which merit further study.

Bone marrow-derived macrophage responses to classical activation: wild-type vs. MLL1-deficient (Lys2Cre MLL1 fx/fx)

Project description:mRNA from wild-type (Cre-) and MLL1-deficient (Cre+) BMDMs were analyzed via gene chip (Mouse Gene ST 2.1, Affymetrix) for relative expression changes. Isolated mRNA from Cre- and Cre+ BMDMs stimulated with classical activation signals (IFNg, LPS or IFNg+LPS) was analyzed using a gene chip panel of >40,000 RefSeq transcripts, and resulting fold expression was determined by analyzing quality-controlled expression values for validated probesets. Bone marrow derived macrophages from wild-type (Cre-) or MLL1-deficient (Cre+) mice were stimulated in vitro with IFNgamma (10 ng/ml), LPS (100 ng/ml) or the combination of IFNgamma+LPS for six hours. Cells were then processed in Trizol reagent for RNA extraction.

Whole-genome expression analysis in IFNgamma stimulated bone marrow-derived macrophages from transgenic mice expressing only non-nuclear mutant Socs1

Project description:To study the role of SOCS1 in the cell nucleus in vivo, we generated a transgenic mouse model using a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) containing a mutated Socs1 locus (non-nuclear Socs1ÎNLS), GFP and firefly Luciferase, termed MGL. MGL transgenic mice expressing only non-nuclear mutant Socs1 (Socs1-/- MGLtg mice) survive the early lethal phenotype of Socs1-/- mice that die within 3 weeks due to excessive immune signaling, mainly depending on hyperresponsiveness to IFNgamma. Therefore, we suggested that classical IFNgamma signaling might still be efficiently regulated by SOCS1ÎNLS. To prove this hypothesis, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) from Socs1-/- MGLtg mice and the control group (Socs1+/- MGLtg mice) were stimulated with IFNgamma for 24 h and subjected to whole-genome expression analysis.
