Project description:CD96 is a transmembrane glycoprotein Ig superfamily receptor, expressed on various T cell subsets and NK cells, that interacts with nectin and nectin-like proteins, including CD155/polio virus receptor (PVR). Here, we have compared three rat anti-mouse CD96 mAbs, including two that block CD96-CD155 (3.3 and 6A6) and one that does not block CD96-CD155 (8B10). Using flow cytometry, we demonstrated that both mAbs 3.3 and 6A6 bind to the first Ig domain of mouse CD96 and compete with CD155 binding, while mAb 8B10 binds to the second Ig domain and does not block CD155. While Fc isotype was irrelevant concerning the anti-metastatic activity of 3.3 mAb, in four different experimental metastases models and one spontaneous metastasis model, the relative order of anti-metastatic potency was 6A6 > 3.3 > 8B10. The metastatic burden control of all of the anti-CD96 clones was highly dependent on NK cells and IFN-γ. Consistent with its inability to block CD96-CD155 interactions, 8B10 retained anti-metastatic activity in CD155-deficient mice, whereas 3.3 and 6A6 lost potency in CD155-deficient mice. Furthermore, 8B10 retained most of its anti-metastatic activity in IL-12p35-deficient mice whereas the activity of 3.3 and 6A6 were partially lost. All three mAbs were inactive in CD226-deficient mice. Altogether, these data demonstrate anti-CD96 need not block CD96-CD155 interactions (ie. immune checkpoint blockade) to promote NK cell anti-metastatic activity.

Project description:Ubiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22) expresses highly in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), which are associated with poor overall survival (OS). Microarray processing was performed to determine gene expression profiling, in which it was found that knocking down USP22 resulted in abnormal expression of a large number of genes. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs)-based protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was organized into 9 functional modules. These functional modules participated significantly in protein modification-related biological process and were involved in cancer-related pathways. The network was constructed to describe the global regulation of USP22-TF/pivot-module-pathway. It suggested that knocking down USP22 may up-regulate the expression of UBC to promote the pathways of cell cycle and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis in the development of LUAD. More than that, knocking down USP22 can up-regulate STAT1 to activate JAK1-STAT1-caspase pathway, and promote apoptosis of tumor cell. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis suggested that E2F3, H2AFX, TFAP2A, PITX1, IRF7, and FOXM1 may be the potential diagnosis biomarkers for LUAD. On the other hand, BRCA1, FOXM1 and TFAP2A may be prognostic biomarkers of LUAD. In conclusion, we constructed a global regulation network to show that USP22 may promote the development of LUAD through ubiquitination and immunosuppression.

Project description:Treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors induces a durable response in some patients with non-small-cell lung cancer, but eventually gives rise to drug resistance. Upregulation of CD155 expression is implicated as one mechanism of resistance to programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) inhibitors, and it is therefore important to characterize the mechanisms underlying regulation of CD155 expression in tumor cells. The aim of this study was to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) that might regulate CD155 expression at the posttranscriptional level in lung cancer. Comprehensive miRNA screening with target prediction programs and a dual-luciferase reporter assay identified miR-346, miR-328-3p, miR-326, and miR-330-5p as miRNAs that bind to the 3'-UTR of CD155 mRNA. Forced expression of these miRNAs suppressed CD155 expression in lung cancer cell lines. Immunohistochemical staining of CD155 in tissue specimens from 57 patients with lung adenocarcinoma revealed the median tumor proportion score for CD155 to be 68%. The abundance of miR-326 in these specimens with a low level of CD155 expression was significantly greater than in specimens with a high level (p < 0.005). Our results thus suggest that miR-326 negatively regulates CD155 expression in lung adenocarcinoma and might therefore play a role in the development of resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.

Project description:CD155, also known as the poliovirus receptor (PVR), is a crucial molecule in the development and progression of cancer, as its overexpression favors immune evasion and resistance to immunotherapy. However, little is known about the mechanisms that regulate its overexpression. Proinflammatory factors produced by various cellular components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) have been associated with CD155 expression. We analyzed the effect of interleukin (IL)-6 on CD155 expression in lung adenocarcinoma. We found a positive relationship between mRNA and protein levels. This correlation was also observed in bioinformatics analysis and in biopsies and serum from patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Interestingly, lung adenocarcinoma cell lines expressing suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) did not show increased CD155 levels upon IL-6 stimulation, and SOCS1 silencing reverted this effect. IL-6 and SOCS1 are critical regulators of CD155 expression in lung adenocarcinoma. Further basic and clinical studies are needed to define the role of these molecules during tumor development and to improve their clinical impact as biomarkers and targets for predicting the efficacy of immunotherapies. This study deepens the understanding of the intricate regulation of the immune checkpoints mediated by soluble factors and allows us to devise new ways to combine conventional treatments with the most innovative anticancer options.

Project description:Loss of function of inhibitory immune checkpoints, unleashing pathogenic immune responses, is a potential risk factor for autoimmune disease. Here, we report that patients with the autoimmune vasculitis giant cell arteritis (GCA) have a defective CD155-CD96 immune checkpoint. Macrophages from patients with GCA retain the checkpoint ligand CD155 in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and fail to bring it to the cell surface. CD155low antigen-presenting cells induce expansion of CD4+CD96+ T cells, which become tissue invasive, accumulate in the blood vessel wall, and release the effector cytokine interleukin-9 (IL-9). In a humanized mouse model of GCA, recombinant human IL-9 causes vessel wall destruction, whereas anti-IL-9 antibodies efficiently suppress innate and adaptive immunity in the vasculitic lesions. Thus, defective surface translocation of CD155 creates antigen-presenting cells that deviate T cell differentiation toward Th9 lineage commitment and results in the expansion of vasculitogenic effector T cells.

Project description:Regulation of Natural Killer (NK) cell activity is achieved by the integration of both activating and inhibitory signals acquired at the immunological synapse with potential target cells. NK cells express paired receptors from the immunoglobulin family which share common ligands from the nectin family of adhesion molecules. The activating receptor CD226 (DNAM-1) binds to nectin-2 and CD155, which are also recognized by the inhibitory receptor TIGIT. The third receptor in this family is CD96, which is less well characterized and may have different functions in human and mouse models. Human CD96 interacts with CD155 and ligation of this receptor activates NK cells, while in mice the presence of CD96 correlates with decreased NK cell activation. Mouse CD96 also binds nectin-1, but the effect of this interaction has not yet been determined. Here we show that human nectin-1 directly interacts with CD96 in vitro. The binding site for CD96 is located on the nectin-1 V-domain, which comprises a canonical interface that is shared by nectins to promote cell adhesion. The affinity of nectin-1 for CD96 is lower than for other nectins such as nectin-3 and nectin-1 itself. However, the affinity of nectin-1 for CD96 is similar to its affinity for herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D (HSV gD), which binds the nectin-1 V-domain during virus entry. The affinity of human CD96 for nectin-1 is lower than for its known activating ligand CD155. We also found that human erythroleukemia K562 cells, which are commonly used as susceptible targets to assess NK cell cytotoxicity did not express nectin-1 on their surface and were resistant to HSV infection. When expressed in K562 cells, nectin-1-GFP accumulated at cell contacts and allowed HSV entry. Furthermore, overexpression of nectin-1-GFP led to an increased susceptibility of K562 cells to NK-92 cell cytotoxicity.

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most prevalent form of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and a leading cause of cancer death. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) of programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) signaling induce tumor regressions in a subset of LUAD, but many LUAD tumors exhibit resistance to ICI therapy. Here, we identified Prkci as a major determinant of response to ICI in a syngeneic mouse model of oncogenic mutant Kras/Trp53 loss (KP)-driven LUAD. Protein kinase Cι (PKCι)-dependent KP tumors exhibited resistance to anti-PD-1 antibody therapy (α-PD-1), whereas KP tumors in which Prkci was genetically deleted (KPI tumors) were highly responsive. Prkci-dependent resistance to α-PD-1 was characterized by enhanced infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and decreased infiltration of CD8+ T cells in response to α-PD-1. Mechanistically, Prkci regulated YAP1-dependent expression of Cxcl5, which served to attract MDSCs to KP tumors. The PKCι inhibitor auranofin inhibited KP tumor growth and sensitized these tumors to α-PD-1, whereas expression of either Prkci or its downstream effector Cxcl5 in KPI tumors induced intratumoral infiltration of MDSCs and resistance to α-PD-1. PRKCI expression in tumors of patients with LUAD correlated with genomic signatures indicative of high YAP1-mediated transcription, elevated MDSC infiltration and low CD8+ T cell infiltration, and with elevated CXCL5/6 expression. Last, PKCι-YAP1 signaling was a biomarker associated with poor response to ICI in patients with LUAD. Our data indicate that immunosuppressive PKCι-YAP1-CXCL5 signaling is a key determinant of response to ICI, and pharmacologic inhibition of PKCι may improve therapeutic response to ICI in patients with LUAD.

Project description:Lung cancer is associated with the greatest number of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) accounts for 85% of all cases of lung cancer. Despite recent advances in treatment, the 5-year survival rate remains less than 15%. Thus, the diagnostic and therapeutic role of LUAD remain to be further studied. The prolyl 3-hydroxylase family member 4 (P3H4) is involved in various cancers, but little is known about its role in LUAD. Our study demonstrated that the P3H4 gene was upregulated in LUAD. Clinically, the expression of P3H4 was positively correlated with an advanced TNM stage and shorter survival. Functionally, P3H4 plays a significant role in the metastasis and proliferation of LUAD both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, P3H4 might interact with EGFR to regulate the metabolic substances. Our study indicated that P3H4 is a critical gene in the malignant progression of LUAD and represents a potential biomarker and therapeutic target.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. New targeted therapies against the once-deemed undruggable oncogenic KRAS are changing current therapeutic paradigms. However, resistance to targeted KRAS inhibitors almost inevitably occurs; resistance can be driven by tumor cell-intrinsic changes or by changes in the microenvironment. Here, we utilized a genetically engineered mouse model of KRASG12D-driven lung cancer that allows for inducible and reversible expression of the oncogene: activation of oncogenic KRASG12D induces tumor growth; conversely, inactivation of KRASG12D causes tumor regression. We showed that in addition to regulating cancer cell growth and survival, oncogenic KRAS regulated the transcriptional status of cancer-associated fibroblasts and macrophages in this model. Utilizing ex vivo approaches, we showed that secreted factors from cancer cells induced the expression of multiple cytokines in lung fibroblasts, and in turn drove expression of immunosuppressive factors, such as arginase 1, in macrophages. In summary, fibroblasts emerged as a key source of immune regulatory signals, and a potential therapeutic target for improving the efficacy of KRAS inhibitors in lung cancer.

Project description:Purpose: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a main subtype of lung cancer, which is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. The five-year survival rates of lung cancer patients are still comparatively low. Therefore, potential therapeutic targets are urgently needed to improve the survival of lung cancer patients. In this study, we identified FAM111B as an oncogene and potential therapeutic target for LUAD. Methods: The TCGA database and tissue microarray analysis were used to compare the expression of FAM111B in tumor tissue and normal tissues and evaluate the relationship between FAM111B expression and clinical survival. FAM111B was knocked down and overexpressed to observe whether FAM111B could affect the proliferation, migration, cell cycle, and apoptosis of LUAD cells in vivo and in vitro. Results: FAM111B was highly expressed in tumor tissues compared with normal tissues (P<0.01). LUAD patients with hyper-expression of FAM111B had a lower recurrence-free survival (P<0.01) and shorter overall survival (P<0.01). Knocking down FAM111B inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. Silencing FAM111B could arrest LUAD cells at G2/M phase and increase apoptosis. Overexpression of FAM111B promoted the growth of lung cancer cells. FAM111B was identified as a direct target of p53 in existing researches by chip-seq analysis. Bioinformatics analysis predicted that FAM111B could directly bind to BAG3 (BCL2 associated athanogene 3). When FAM111B was down-regulated, both expression of BAG 3 and BCL2 were significantly reduced, whereas decreasing the expression of BAG3 had no effect on FAM111B. Conclusions: Our study indicated that FAM111B might be an oncogene and potential therapeutic target in LUAD which could be involved in the regulation of tumor cells by p53 signaling pathway and play an important role in the process of cell cycle and apoptosis by influencing the expression of BAG3 and BCL2.
