CCL3 Enhances Antitumor Immune Priming in the Lymph Node via IFN? with Dependency on Natural Killer Cells.

ABSTRACT: Lymph node (LN) plays a critical role in tumor cell survival outside of the primary tumor sites and dictates overall clinical response in many tumor types (1, 2). Previously, we and others have demonstrated that CCL3 plays an essential role in orchestrating T cell-antigen-presenting cell (APC) encounters in the draining LN following vaccination, and such interactions enhance the magnitude of the memory T cell pool (3-5). In the current study, we investigate the cellular responses in the tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) of a CCL3-secreting CT26 colon tumor (L3TU) as compared to wild-type tumor (WTTU) during the priming phase of an antitumor response (?10?days). In comparison to WTTU, inoculation of L3TU resulted in suppressed tumor growth, a phenomenon that is accompanied by altered in vivo inflammatory responses on several fronts. Autologous tumor-derived CCL3 (aCCL3) secretion by L3TU bolstered the recruitment of T- and B-lymphocytes, tissue-migratory CD103+ dendritic cells (DCs), and CD49b+ natural killer (NK) cells, resulting in significant increases in the differentiation and activation of multiple Interferon-gamma (IFN?)-producing leukocytes in the TDLN. During this early phase of immune priming, NK cells constitute the major producers of IFN? in the TDLN. CCL3 also enhances CD8+ T cell proliferation and differentiation by augmenting DC capacity to drive T cell activation in the TDLN. Our results revealed that CCL3-dependent IFN? production and CCL3-induced DC maturation drive the priming of effective antitumor immunity in the TDLN.

Project description:The goal of this project is todetermine if natural killer (NK) cells could be able to control HIV replication and reduce or eliminate viral reservoirs leading to HIV cure or a functional cure. Despite thirty years of work and significant progress, HIV infection continues to be an incurable disease. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has significantly decreased the morbidity and mortality, but lifelong treatment is merely suppressive and does not cure HIV/AIDS. This is because of the existence of a reservoir of viral DNA+ (vDNA+) in cells of the lymphoid tissues with an intact provirus that is thought capable of initiating new rounds of HIV replication (i.e. latency). In addition to this inducible reservoir data suggest ongoing low-level virus replication and persistence in lymphatic tissues of some patients that is related to suboptimal drug levels in these tissues. Strategies are needed that can address both issues. NK cells are innate immune effectors that recognize virally infected targets through a cadre of activating and inhibitory receptors but become dysfunctional in HIV infected people. Strikingly, African green monkeys (AGM) and sooty mangabeys mount a strong control of viral replication in lymph node follicles shortly after the viremia peak that lasts throughout infection. Several mechanisms have been proposed to be implicated in the strong control of viral replication in natural host’s lymph nodes, such as NK cell-mediated control. Indeed, we have recently shown that NK cells could migrate into the b cells follicles in a CXCR5 dependent manner and thus participate to the elimination of viral replication. Thus the purpose of this study is too compare at the transcriptomic level different subset of NK cell isolated from blood and peripheral lymph node of chronically infected AGM to identify a transcriptomic signature which could be linked to an efficient control of SIV replication. This results could then provide a new aproche which could be exploited to generate functional NK cells against HIV in infected patients.
