LSD1 ablation stimulates anti-tumor immunity and enables checkpoint blockade

ABSTRACT: Chromatin regulators play a broad role in regulating gene expression, and when gone awry, can lead to cancer. Here we demonstrate that ablation of the histone demethylase LSD1 in cancer cells increases repetitive element expression, including ERVs, and decreases expression of RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) components. Significantly, this leads to dsRNA stress and activation of type 1 interferon, which stimulates anti-tumor T cell immunity and restrains tumor growth. Furthermore, LSD1 depletion enhances tumor immunogenicity and T cell infiltration in poorly immunogenic tumors, and elicits significant responses of checkpoint blockade-refractory mouse melanoma to anti-PD-1 therapy. Consistently, TCGA data analysis shows an inverse correlation between LSD1 expression and CD8+ T cell infiltration in various human cancers. Our study identifies LSD1 as a potent inhibitor of anti-tumor immunity and responsiveness to immunotherapy, and suggests LSD1 inhibition combined with PD-(L)1 blockade as a novel cancer treatment strategy.

Simultaneous Inhibition of LSD1 and TGF-β Enables Eradication of Poorly Immunogenic Tumors with anti-PD-1 Treatment

Project description:Epigenetic regulators are a class of promising targets in the combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer treatment, but the impact of the broad effects of perturbing epigenetic regulators on tumor immunotherapy remains to be fully explored. Here we show that ablation of the histone demethylase LSD1 in multiple tumor cells induces TGF-β expression, which exerts an inhibitory effect on T cell immunity through suppressing the cytotoxicity of intratumoral CD8+ T cells and consequently dampens the antitumor effect of LSD1 ablation-induced T cell infiltration. Importantly, concurrent depletion of LSD1 and TGF-β in combination with PD-1 blockade significantly increases both CD8+ T cell infiltration and cytotoxicity, leading to eradication of poorly immunogenic tumors and a long-term protection from tumor re-challenge. Thus, combining LSD1 inhibition with blockade of TGF-β and PD-1 may represent a promising triple combination therapy for treating certain refractory tumors.

The CD58:CD2 axis is co-regulated with PD-L1 via CMTM6 and shapes anti-tumor immunity

Project description:The cell-autonomous balance of immune-inhibitory and -stimulatory signals is a critical process in cancer immune evasion. Using patient-derived co-cultures, humanized mouse models, and single cell RNA-sequencing of patient melanomas biopsied before and on immune checkpoint blockade, we find that intact cancer-cell-intrinsic expression of CD58 and ligation to CD2 is required for anti-tumor immunity and is predictive of treatment response. Defects in this axis promote immune evasion through diminished T cell activation, impaired intratumoral T cell infiltration and proliferation, and concurrently increased PD-L1 protein stabilization. Through CRISPR-Cas9 and proteomics screens, we identify and validate CMTM6 as critical for CD58 maintenance and upregulation of PD-L1 upon CD58 loss. Competition by CD58 and PD-L1 for CMTM6 (via both extracellular loop domains) determines their rate of endosomal recycling over lysosomal degradation. Overall, we describe an underappreciated yet critical axis of cancer immunity and provide a molecular basis for how cancer cells balance immune inhibitory and stimulatory cues.

Oleuropein reprograms the immunosuppressive footprint of tumor-associated myeloid cells and enhances PD-L1/PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in cancer

Project description:Therapies based on PD-1/PD-L1 blockade fail in most cancer patients. Here we evaluated the capacities of oleuropein to reprogram tumor-associated immunosuppressive myeloid cells to increase the potency of immunotherapies. Oleuropein caused major global reprogramming of monocytic and granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells and tumor-associated macrophages towards immunostimulatory subsets. Differential quantitative proteomics uncovered activated and down-modulated pathways at high resolution for each subset which regulated major differentiation programs. Oleuropein significantly potentiated the capacities of myeloid cells to activate T-cells and enhanced antitumor properties of PD-1 blockade, either by systemic anti-PD-1 antibody administration, or locally by intratumor antibody delivery with a self-amplifying RNA vector based on Semliki Forest virus. Combination therapies decreased tumor infiltration by immunosuppressive myeloid cells and increased dendritic cell recruitment within draining lymph nodes, leading to systemic antitumor T-cell responses. Potent therapeutic activities were evident in lung cancer models resistant to immunotherapies and in colon cancer models.

Highly Immunogenic Cancer Cells Require Activation of the WNT Pathway for Immunological Escape

Project description:PD-1 blockade therapy exerts antitumor effects by restoring the infiltration of tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. While neoantigens arising from gene alterations in cancer cells comprise critical tumor antigens in antitumor immunity, a subset of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) harboring substantial tumor mutation burden (TMB) lack CD8+ T cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), resulting in resistance to PD-1 blockade therapy. This resistance is an urgent issue, so the mechanism(s) mediating impaired antitumor immunity in highly mutated NSCLCs need to be explored. Here, we show that activation of the WNT/b-catenin signaling pathway contributes to the development of a noninflamed TME in tumors with high TMB. NSCLCs that lack immune cell infiltration into the TME despite high TMB preferentially upregulate the WNT/b-catenin pathway. Immunological assays revealed that those patients harbored neoantigen-specific CD8+ T cells in the peripheral blood but not in the TME, suggesting impaired T cell infiltration into the TME due to the activation of WNT/b-catenin signaling. In our animal model, the accumulation of gene mutations in cancer cells increased CD8+ T cell infiltration into the TME, slowing tumor growth. However, further accumulation of gene mutations blunted antitumor immunity by excluding CD8+ T cells from tumors in a WNT/b-catenin signaling-dependent manner. Combined treatment with PD-1 blockade and WNT/b-catenin signaling inhibitors induced far stronger antitumor immunity than either treatment alone. We propose a mechanism-oriented combination therapy concept in the cancer immunotherapy field, i.e., the combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors with drugs that target specific molecules in cancer cell-intrinsic oncogenic signaling pathways involved in immune escape.

CDK4/6 inhibitors reverse primary resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy in LKB1-deficient lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:LKB1 deficiency in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) leads to primary resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we showed that LKB1 deficiency significantly affected the tumor immune landscape by decreasing the infiltration of most immunocyte populations and downregulating the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1). LKB1 deficiency promoted cancer evasion due to loss of ICAM1-mediated antitumor immunity, including immune-competent cell cytotoxicity and tumor infiltration. CDK4/6 inhibitors reversed this process in a targeted manner. A tailored combination strategy using CDK4/6 inhibitors and anti-PD-1 antibodies slowed tumor growth and increased survival in syngeneic mouse models of LKB1-deficient lung adenocarcinoma. Combining a CDK4/6 inhibitor, which is clinically approved, with PD-1 blockade therapy is thus a promising option for lung adenocarcinoma patients harboring LKB1 mutations.

SETDB1-TRIM28 complex suppresses antitumor immunity [RNA-seq]

Project description:Epigenetic mechanism contributes to immune landscapes in cancer. Here we identify the SETDB1-TRIM28 complex as a critical suppressor of antitumor immunity. An epigenetic CRISPR-Cas9 screen of 1,218 chromatin regulators identified TRIM28 as a novel suppressor of PD-L1 expression. We revealed that expression of the SETDB1-TRIM28 complex negatively correlates with infiltration of effector CD8+ T cells. Inhibition of SETDB1-TRIM28 simultaneously upregulates PD-L1 and activates the cGAS-STING innate immune response to increase infiltration of CD8+ T cells. Mechanistically, SETDB1-TRIM28 inhibition leads to micronuclei formation in cytoplasm, a known activator of the cGAS-STING pathway. Thus, SETDB1-TRIM28 inhibition bridges the innate and adaptive immunity. Indeed, SETDB1 knockout enhances the antitumor effects of immune checkpoint blockade anti-PD-L1 in an ovarian cancer mouse model in a cGAS dependent manner. Our findings establish SETDB1-TRIM28 complex as a regulator of antitumor immunity and its loss activates cGAS-STING innate immunity to boost antitumor effects of immune checkpoint blockades.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Equipped by IFNα Empower T Cells with Potent Anti-tumor Immunity

Project description:Cancer treatments have been revolutionized by the emergence of immune checkpoint blockade therapies. However, only a minority of patients with various tumor types have benefited from such treatments. New strategies focusing on the immune contexture of the tumor tissue microenvironment hold great promises. Here, we created IFNα-overexpressing mesenchymal stromal cells (IFNα-MSCs). Upon direct injection into tumors, we found that these cells are powerful in eliminating several types of tumors. Interestingly, the intra-tumoral injection of IFNα-MSCs could also induce specific anti-tumor effects on distant tumors. These IFNα-MSCs promoted tumor cells to produce CXCL10, which in turn potentiates the infiltration of CD8+ T cells in the tumor site. Furthermore, IFNα-MSCs enhanced the expression of granzyme B (GZMB) in CD8+ T cells and invigorated their cytotoxicity in a Stat3-dependent manner. Genetic ablation of Stat3 in CD8+ T cells impaired the effect of IFNα-MSCs on GZMB expression. Importantly, combination of IFNα-MSCs and PD-L1 blockade induced an even stronger anti-tumor immunity. Therefore, IFNα-MSCs represent a novel tumor immunotherapy strategy, especially when combined with PD-L1 blockade.

Combined PD-L1/TGFb blockade allows expansion and differentiation of stem cell-like CD8 T cells in immune excluded tumors

Project description:TGFb signaling is a major pathway associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with advanced metastatic cancers and non-response to immune checkpoint blockade, particularly in the immune-excluded tumor phenotype. While previous pre-clinical studies demonstrated that converting tumors from an excluded to an inflamed phenotype and curative anti-tumor immunity require attenuation of both PD-L1 and TGFb signaling, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies suggest that stem cell-like CD8 T cells (TSCL) can differentiate into non-exhausted CD8 T effector cells that drive durable anti-tumor immunity. Here, we show that TGFb and PD-L1 restrain TSCL expansion as well as replacement of progenitor exhausted and dysfunctional CD8 T cells with non-exhausted IFNghi CD8 T effector cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blockade of TGFb and PD-L1 generated IFNghi CD8 T effector cells with enhanced motility, enabling both their accumulation in the TME and increased interaction with other cell types. Ensuing IFNg signaling markedly transformed myeloid, stromal, and tumor niches to yield a broadly immune-supportive ecosystem. Blocking IFNg completely abolished the effect of anti-PD-L1/ TGFb combination therapy. Our data suggest that TGFb works in concert with PD-L1 to prevent TSCL expansion and replacement of exhausted CD8 T cells with fresh CD8 T effector cells, thereby maintaining the CD8 T cell compartment in a dysfunctional state.
