A Developed NK-92MI Cell Line with Siglec-7^neg Phenotype Exhibits High and Sustainable Cytotoxicity against Leukemia Cells.

ABSTRACT: Altered sialic acid processing that leads to upregulation of cell surface sialylation is recognized as a key change in malignant tissue glycosylation. This cancer-associated hypersialylation directly impacts the signaling interactions between tumor cells and their surrounding microenvironment, especially the interactions mediated by immune cell surface sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins (Siglecs) to relay inhibitory signals for cytotoxicity. First, we obtained a Siglec-7^neg NK-92MI cell line, NK-92MI-S7N, by separating a group of Siglec-7^neg cell population from an eight-month-long-term NK-92MI in vitro culture by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). The effect of Siglec-7 loss on NK-92MI-S7N cells was characterized by the cell morphology, proliferation, and cytotoxic activity via FACS, MTS assay, cytotoxic assay, and natural killer (NK) degranulation assay. We found the expression levels of Siglec-7 in NK-92MI were negatively correlated with NK cytotoxicity against leukemia cells. This NK-92MI-S7N cell not only shared very similar phenotypes with its parental cells but also possessed a high and sustainable killing activity. Furthermore, this Siglec-7^neg NK line was unexpectedly capable of eliminating a NK-92MI-resistant leukemia cell, THP-1, through enhancing the effector-target interaction. In this study, a NK cell line with high and sustainable cytotoxicity was established and this cell may provide a potential application in NK-based treatment for leukemia patients.

Project description:Conventional CD4pos regulatory T (Treg) cells characterized by expression of the key transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) are crucial to control immune responses, thereby maintaining homeostasis and self-tolerance. Within the substantial population of non-conventional T cell receptor (TCR)αβpos CD4negCD8αneg double-negative (dn) T cells of dogs, a novel FoxP3pos Treg-like subset was described that, similar to conventional CD4pos Treg cells, is characterized by high expression of CD25. Noteworthy, human and murine TCRαβpos regulatory dn T cells lack FoxP3. Immunosuppressive capacity of canine dn T cells was hypothesized based on expression of inhibitory molecules (interleukin (IL)-10, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4, CTLA4). Here, to verify their regulatory function, the dnCD25pos (enriched for FoxP3pos Treg-like cells) and the dnCD25neg fraction, were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of Beagle dogs and analyzed in an in vitro suppression assay in comparison to conventional CD4posCD25pos Treg cells (positive control) and CD4posCD25neg T cells (negative control). Canine dnCD25pos T cells suppressed the Concanavalin A-driven proliferation of responder PBMC to a similar extent as conventional CD4posCD25pos Treg cells. Albeit to a lesser extent than FoxP3-enriched dn and CD4posCD25pos populations, even dnCD25neg T cells reduced the proliferation of responder cells. This is remarkable, as dnCD25neg T cells have a FoxP3neg phenotype comparable to non-suppressive CD4posCD25neg T cells. Both, CD25pos and CD25neg dn T cells, can mediate suppression independent of cell-cell contact and do not require additional signals from CD4posCD25neg T cells to secrete inhibitory factors in contrast to CD4posCD25pos T cells. Neutralization of IL-10 completely abrogated the suppression by dnCD25pos and CD4posCD25pos Treg cells in a Transwell™ system, while it only partially reduced suppression by dnCD25neg T cells. Taken together, unique canine non-conventional dnCD25pos FoxP3pos Treg-like cells are potent suppressor cells in vitro. Moreover, inhibition of proliferation of responder T cells by the dnCD25neg fraction indicates suppressive function of a subset of dn T cells even in the absence of FoxP3. The identification of unique immunoregulatory non-conventional dn T cell subpopulations of the dog in vitro is of high relevance, given the immunotherapeutic potential of manipulating regulatory T cell responses in vivo.

Project description:Background: The application of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) NK cells in solid tumors is hindered by lack of tumor-specific targets and inefficient CAR-NK cell efficacy. Claudin-6 (CLDN6) has been reported to be overexpressed in ovarian cancer and may be an attractive target for CAR-NK cells immunotherapy. However, the feasibility of using anti-CLDN6 CAR-NK cells to treat ovarian cancer remains to be explored. Methods: CLDN6 expression in primary human ovarian cancer, normal tissues and cell lines were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot. Two types of third-generation CAR NK-92MI cells targeting CLDN6, CLDN6-CAR1 NK-92MI cells with domains containing self-activated elements (NKG2D, 2B4) and CLDN6-CAR2 NK-92MI cells with classical domains (CD28, 4-1BB) were constructed by lentivirus transfection, sorted by flow cytometry and verified by western blot and qPCR. OVCAR-3, SK-OV-3, A2780, Hey and PC-3 cells expressing the GFP and luciferase genes were transduced. Subcutaneous and intraperitoneal tumor models were established via NSG mice. The ability of CLDN6-CAR NK cells to kill CLDN6-positive ovarian cancer cells were evaluated in vitro and in vivo by live cell imaging and bioluminescence imaging. Results: Both CLDN6-CAR1 and CLDN6-CAR2 NK-92MI cells could specifically killed CLDN6-positive ovarian cancer cells (OVCAR-3, SK-OV-3, A2780 and Hey), rather than CLDN6 negative cell (PC-3), in vitro. CLDN6-CAR1 NK-92MI cells with domains containing self-activated elements (NKG2D, 2B4) exhibited stronger cytotoxicity than CLDN6-CAR2 NK-92MI cells with classical domains (CD28, 4-1BB). Furthermore, CLDN6-CAR1 NK cells could effectively eliminate ovarian cancer cells in subcutaneous and intraperitoneal tumor models. More importantly, CAR-NK cells combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors, anti-PD-L1, could synergistically enhance the antitumor efficacy of CLDN6-targeted CAR-NK cells. Conclusions: These results indicate that CLDN6-CAR NK cells possess strong antitumor activity and represent a promising immunotherapeutic modality for ovarian cancer.
