Antigen presented by tumors in vivo determines the nature of CD8+ T-cell cytotoxicity.

ABSTRACT: The biological relevance of the perforin and Fas ligand (FasL) cytolytic pathways of CD8(+) T lymphocytes (CTL) for cancer immunotherapy is controversial. We investigated the importance of these pathways in a murine renal cell carcinoma expressing influenza viral hemagglutinin as a defined surrogate antigen (Renca-HA). Following Renca-HA injection, all FasL-dysfunctional FasL(gld/gld) mice (n = 54) died from Renca-HA tumors by day 62. By contrast, perforin(-/-) (51%; n = 45) and Fas(lpr/lpr) (55%; n = 51) mice remained tumor-free at day 360. Blocking FasL in vivo inhibited tumor rejection in these mice. Moreover, established Renca-HA tumors were cleared more efficiently by adoptively transferred HA(518-526)-specific T-cell receptor-transgenic CTL using FasL rather than perforin. Strikingly, a range of mouse tumor cells presenting low concentrations of immunogenic peptide were all preferentially lysed by the FasL but not the Pfp-mediated effector pathway of CTL, whereas at higher peptide concentrations, the preference in effector pathway usage by CTL was lost. Interestingly, a number of human renal cancer lines were also susceptible to FasL-mediated cytotoxicity. Therefore, the FasL cytolytic pathway may be particularly important for eradicating Fas-sensitive tumors presenting low levels of MHC class I-associated antigens following adoptive T-cell therapy.

Project description:This experiment compares the transciptional changes in antigen specific murine CD8 T cells (P14 T cells) after exposure in vivo to dendritic cells (DC) pulsed with low dose cognate peptide (1uM KAVYNFATC), high dose cognate peptide (100uM KAVYNFATC) or no antigen. Splenic dendritic cells were freshly isolated, peptide pulsed, washed and then adoptively transferred s.c. to the right footpad of C57BL/6 hosts. After 18h, freshly isolated P14 CD8 T cells were labelled with CMFDA and adoptively transferred iv. Two hours after T cell transfer, anti-L selectin antibody was given iv. At 12 and 24 hours, recipients were sacrificed and The right popliteal LN was harvested at 12 or 24h post T cell transfer and a single cell suspension was created and stained with PE CD4, B220 and CD19 (dump channel). Cells were then sorted on a FacsARIA for being non-doublets, CMFDA positive and dump channel negative.

Cells were then sorted on a FacsARIA for being non-doublets, CMFDA positive and dump channel negative. The experiment was conducted for 39 samples out of which 35 passsed transcriptional quality control tests. The phenotypic distribution for the 35 samples includes: (1) high dose (100uM KAVYNFATC ) cognate peptide pulsed samples harvested at 12h post T cell transfer: 6 biological replicates (2) high dose (100uM KAVYNFATC ) cognate peptide pulsed samples harvested at 24h post T cell transfer: 7 biological replicates (3) low dose (1uM KAVYNFATC) cognate peptide pulsed samples harvested at 12h post T cell transfer: 6 biological replicates (4) low dose (1uM KAVYNFATC) cognate peptide pulsed samples harvested at 24h post T cell transfer: 9 biological replicates (5) no antigen pulsed samples harvested at 12h post T cell transfer: 3 biological replicates (6) no antigen pulsed samples harvested at 24h post T cell transfer: 4 biological replicates.
