CaMKK2 in myeloid cells is a key regulator of the immune suppressive microenvironment in breast cancer

ABSTRACT: Tumor-associated myeloid cells play a pivotal role in the regulation of processes that control tumor growth and metastasis, and their accumulation in tumors is an established negative prognostic factor in breast cancer. Here, we show that inhibition of calcium/calmodulin-dependentkinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) expression within myeloid cells inhibits tumor growth in mouse models of mammary cancer. This activity is associated with the accumulation of macrophages within the tumor microenvironment that express high levels of the major histocompatibility molecule class II molecule I-A (MHC II I-A), and granzyme positive CD8+T-cells. Treatment with specific CaMKK2 inhibitors block tumor growth, in a CD8+ T-cell dependent manner, and facilitates favorable reprogramming of the immune cell microenvironment. CaMKK2 protein expression was highest in the most aggressive subtypes of human breast cancer and, in the most malignant tumors, both tumor cells and tumor-associated macrophages express high levels of this enzyme. In aggregate, these findings implicate CaMKK2 as a macrophage-selective immune checkpoint, the inhibition of which may have utility in the immunotherapy of breast cancer.

Gene expression in WT and Camkk2 KO murine hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:To determine the function of Camkk2 in HSC we performed a microarray analysis on isolated KSL from WT and Camkk2 null mice. Using a threshold of 0.05 for statistical significance (p-value) and a log fold change of expression with absolute value of at least 0.6, 1831 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified out of a total of 29352 genes with measured expression. When compared to WT KSL, 1289 genes were significantly downregulated and 533 genes were upregulated in Camkk2 null HSC. The genes downregulated in Camkk2 null KSL were strongly enriched in HSC, early progenitors and lymphoid-myeloid-affiliated genes (s-myly) primed in HSC. Of note, HSC-affiliated genes found downregulated in Camkk2 KSL included Hlf, Meis1, Pbx-1 and Prdm5 which are 4 of the 8 genes capable to reprogram committed murine blood cells into HSC. The GSEA analysis also showed that genes affiliated with the late progenitor signature and erythroid genes primed in HSC and GMP specific genes (d-my) were significantly upregulated in Camkk2 null KSL. These findings indicate Camkk2 controls crucial transcriptional programs involved in the mechanism of HSC differentiation and lineage commitment.

CaMKK2 Inactivation by cAMP-PKA Signaling and 14-3-3 Adaptor Proteins

Project description:The calcium-calmodulin (Ca2+-CaM) dependent protein kinase kinase-2 (CaMKK2) is activated by increases in intracellular Ca2+ and is a key regulator of cellular and wholebody energy metabolism. CaMKK2 inhibition protects against prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and metabolic derangements induced by a high-fat diet, therefore elucidating the intracellular mechanisms that inactivate CaMKK2 has important therapeutic implications. Here we show that stimulation of cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (PKA) signaling in cells inactivates CaMKK2 by phosphorylation of three conserved serine residues. PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Ser495 directly impairs Ca2+-CaM activation, whereas phosphorylation of Ser100 and Ser511 mediate recruitment of 14-3-3 adaptor proteins that hold CaMKK2 in the inactivated state by preventing dephosphorylation of phospho-Ser495. We also report the crystal structure of 14-3-3z bound to a synthetic diphosphorylated peptide that reveals how the canonical (Ser511) and non-canonical (Ser100) 14-3-3 consensus sites on CaMKK2 co-operate to bind 14-3-3 proteins. Our findings provide a detailed mechanistic insight into how cAMP-PKA signaling inactivates CaMKK2 and reveals a pathway to inhibit CaMKK2 with potential for treating human diseases.

Tenascin-C shapes TRAIL control over tumor immunity

Project description:TRAIL cytotoxicity is exploited as anti-cancer therapy since many years, however incomplete knowledge is generating many obstacles. Here, we address whether the highly abundant extracellular matrix molecule tenascin-C (TNC) orchestrating an immune suppressive tumor microenvironment and binding TRAIL impacts TRAIL cytotoxicity. We used an immune competent autologous NT193 breast cancer model with a knockdown (KD) of Tnfsf10 (encoding TRAIL) and observed accelerated tumor growth marked by less apoptosis, more proliferation and less myeloid cell infiltration as seen by flow cytometry. Grafting the same Tnfsf10 KD cells into a TNC knockout host showed repressed tumor growth suggesting that TNC is involved in regulating TRAIL functions.

Tumor associated macrophages-programmed core immunosuppressive microenvironments via Galectin-1 in breast cancer

Project description:There has been considerable interest in therapeutic targeting of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) mainly by depleting or repolarizing them toward anti-tumoral phenotypes. However, a core mediator co-opted for TAMs-mediated remodeling of tumor microenvironment remains poorly understood. Here, to dissect TAMs-mediated early microenvironment, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of TAMs-enriched and -depleted mouse breast tumor at the early stages of progression, before detectable change in tumor growth appeared. We found that early intratumoral accumulation of TAMs endowed cancer cells with invasive properties to promote early dissemination and dampened antitumoral T cell responses. Accordingly, TAMs-depleted tumor using clodronate displayed a decreased epithelial-to mesenchymal transition (EMT) signature of cancer cells and harbored a distinct transcriptome associated with CD8+ T cells activation. Furthermore, we identified a role of Galectin-1 (Gal-1) as a molecular checkpoint in TAMs-induced CD8+ T cell exhaustion. Gal-1 inhibition reversed immune suppression via reinvigoration of CD8+ T cells, thus impairing tumor growth and boosting the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor in a breast tumor model. These results provide a comprehensive insight into the early-programmed microenvironment by TAMs and reveal an immune evasion mechanism that could be targeted by Gal-1 to unleash antitumor immune responses.

Targeting the MAtrix REgulating MOtif, MAREMO, abolishes hallmarks of cancer

Project description:Tumor targeted therapies have been largely inefficient due to lack of concomitant effects on the tumor microenvironment (TME). We investigated the MAtrix REgulating MOtif (MAREMO) mimicking peptide MP5, that inhibits the pro-tumorigenic extracellular matrix (ECM) molecule tenascin-C, using immunocompetent autologous breast cancer bearing mice. MP5 treatment led to tumor regression and reduced tumor cell dissemination. Several cancer hallmarks were abolished such as tumor cell promoting growth suppression and inhibition of plasticity enhancing responsiveness to death inducers. MP5 acts on other TME players leading to blood vessel normalization and depletion of fibroblasts diminishing the ECM as an orchestrator of immune suppression, causing immune cell infiltration and reactivation of anti-tumor immunity involving IFNgamma. Thus, targeting the tumor matrix using MAREMO in tenascin-C represents a powerful novel anti-cancer strategy.

RNA-seq in Hs578T cells stimulated with TGF-β

Project description:Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) comprises a key component in the tumor microenvironment. It is reported that TGF-β can be pro-tumorigenic or anti-tumorigenic depending on various contexts. Some of the triple negative breast cancers highly express TGF-β, but pro-tumorigenic function of TGF-β in triple negative breast cancer cells is not fully known. Therefore, we analyzed genome-wide gene expression changes after stimulation with TGF-β in a triple negative breast cancer cell line, Hs578T cells.
