TLR3-Induced Maturation of Murine Dendritic Cells Regulates CTL Responses by Modulating PD-L1 Trafficking.


ABSTRACT: Targeting TLR3 through formulations of polyI:C is widely studied as an adjuvant in cancer immunotherapy. The efficacy of such targeting has been shown to increase in combination with anti-PD-L1 treatment. Nevertheless, the mechanistic details of the effect of polyI:C on DC maturation and the impact on T-DC interactions upon PD-L1 blockade is largely unknown. Here we found that although DC treatment with polyI:C induced a potent inflammatory response including the production of type I interferon, polyI:C treatment of DCs impaired activation of peptide specific CD8+ T cells mainly due to PD-L1. Interestingly, we found that PD-L1 trafficking to the cell surface is regulated in two waves in polyI:C-treated DCs. One induced upon overnight treatment and a second more rapid one, specific to polyI:C treatment, was induced upon CD40 signaling leading to a further increase in surface PD-L1 in DCs. The polyI:C-induced cell surface PD-L1 reduced the times of contact between DCs and T cells, potentially accounting for limited T cell activation. Our results reveal a novel CD40-dependent regulation of PD-L1 trafficking induced upon TLR3 signaling that dictates its inhibitory activity. These results provide a mechanistic framework to understand the efficacy of anti-PD-L1 cancer immunotherapy combined with TLR agonists.
