Project description:The study describes two independent cases of NCKAP1L-deficiency, both carrying homozygous non-sense or splice variants in the NCKAP1L gene. The patients presented a phenotype of immunodeficiency, lymphoproliferation and hyperinflammation with features of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH).

Project description:Expression data from CD8+ T cells and CD68+ monocytes from patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, sepsis, and persistent systemic inflammatory response syndrome Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a syndrome characterized by pathologic immune activation in which prompt recognition and initiation of immune suppression is essential for survival. Children with HLH have many overlapping clinical features with critically ill children with sepsis and persistent systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in whom alternative therapies are indicated. To determine if plasma biomarkers could differentiate HLH from other inflammatory conditions and to better define a ‘core inflammatory signature’ of HLH, concentrations of inflammatory plasma proteins were compared in 40 patients with HLH to 47 pediatric patients with severe sepsis or SIRS. Seventeen of 135 analytes were significantly different in HLH plasma compared to SIRS/sepsis, including increased interferon-gamma (IFNg)-regulated chemokines CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11. Further, a 5-analyte plasma protein classifier including these chemokines was able to differentiate HLH from SIRS/sepsis. Gene expression in CD8+ T cells and CD68+ monocytes from blood were also enriched for IFNg pathway signatures in peripheral blood cells from patients with HLH compared to SIRS/sepsis. This study identifies differential expression of inflammatory proteins as a diagnostic strategy to identify critically ill children with HLH. Further, comprehensive unbiased analysis of inflammatory plasma proteins and global gene expression demonstrates that IFNg signaling is uniquely elevated in HLH. In addition to demonstrating the ability of diagnostic criteria for HLH, sepsis and SIRS to identify groups with distinct inflammatory patterns, results from this study support the potential for prospective evaluation of inflammatory biomarkers to aid in diagnosis of and optimizing therapeutic strategies for children with distinctive hyperinflammatory syndromes.

Project description:Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) comprises a severe hyperinflammatory phenotype driven by the overproduction of cytokines, many of which signal via the JAK/STAT pathway. Indeed, the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib has demonstrated efficacy in pre-clinical studies and early-phase clinical trials in HLH. Nevertheless, concerns remain for ruxolitinib-induced cytopenias, which are postulated to result from the blockade of JAK2-dependent hematopoietic growth factors. To explore the therapeutic effects of selective JAK inhibition in mouse models of HLH, we carried out studies incorporating the JAK1 inhibitor itacitinib, the JAK2 inhibitor fedratinib and the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib. All three drugs were well-tolerated and at the doses tested, they suppressed interferon-gamma (IFNg)-induced STAT1 phosphorylation in vitro and in vivo. Itacitinib, but not fedratinib, significantly improved survival and clinical scores in CpG-induced secondary HLH. Conversely, in primary HLH, where perforin-deficient (Prf1-/-) mice are infected with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), itacitinib and fedratinib performed suboptimally. Ruxolitinib demonstrated excellent clinical efficacy in both HLH models. RNA-sequencing of splenocytes from LCMV-infected Prf1-/- mice revealed that itacitinib targeted inflammatory and metabolic pathway genes in CD8 T cells, while fedratinib targeted genes regulating cell proliferation and metabolism. In monocytes, neither drug conferred major transcriptional impacts. Consistent with its superior clinical effects, ruxolitinib exerted the greatest transcriptional changes in CD8 T cells and monocytes, targeting more genes across several biologic pathways, most notably JAK-dependent pro-inflammatory signaling. We conclude that JAK1 inhibition is sufficient to curtail CpG-induced disease, but combined inhibition of JAK1 and JAK2 is needed to best control LCMV-induced immunopathology.

Autosomal recessive mutations in PFP1, UNC13D, STX11, STBP2, or RAB27, and hemizygous mutations in SH2D1A or BIRC4, account for known causes of the disease, but 30-70% of patients in North America lack a known genetic etiology.

Project description:CAR-T cell therapy against MM currently shows promising results, but usually with serious toxicities. CAR-NK cells may exert less toxicity when redirected against resistant myeloma cells. CARs can be designed through the use of receptors, such as NKG2D, which recognizes a wide range of ligands to provide broad target specificity. Here, we test this approach by analyzing the anti-tumor activity of activated and expanded NK cells (NKAE) and CD45RA- T cells from MM patients that were engineered to express an NKG2D-based CAR. NKAE cells were cultured with irradiated Clone9.mbIL21 cells. Then, cells were transduced with an NKG2D-4-1BB-CD3z-CAR. CAR-NKAE cells exhibited no evidence of genetic abnormalities. Although memory T cells were more stably transduced, CAR-NKAE cells exhibited greater in vitro cytotoxicity against MM cells, while showing minimal activity against healthy cells. In vivo, CAR-NKAE cells mediated highly efficient abrogation of MM growth, and two of the treated mice remained disease-free. Overall, these results demonstrate that it is feasible to modify autologous NKAE cells from MM patients to safely express a NKG2D-CAR. Additionally, autologous CAR-NKAE cells display enhanced anti-myeloma activity demonstrating that they could be an effective strategy against MM supporting the development of NKG2D-CAR NK cell therapy for MM.

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has proven highly successful in the treatment of hematological malignancies, notably acute lymphoblastic leukemia and B cell lymphoma. However, the efficacy of CAR T cells against solid tumors is poor, likely due to tumor-associated immunosuppression. Here, we demonstrate that antagonizing Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs) with the clinical smac-mimetic, birinapant, significantly enhanced the anti-tumor activity of CAR T cells in a TNF-dependent manner. Enhanced tumor cell death occurred independently of the perforin-mediated granule exocytosis pathway, underscoring the cytotoxic potential of CAR T cell-derived TNF. Importantly, combining CAR T cell therapy with birinapant dramatically reduced established tumor growth in vivo, where either therapy alone was relatively ineffective. Using patient biopsy-derived tumoroids, we demonstrate the synergistic potential of combining CAR T cell therapy with smac-mimetics. Taken together, we identify CAR T cell-derived TNF as a potent anti-tumor effector, which can be further harnessed by smac-mimetics.

Project description:Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a hyperinflammatory disorder characterized by a life-threatening cytokine storm and immunopathology. Familial HLH type 3 (FHL3) accounts for 30% of all inborn HLH cases worldwide. It is caused by mutations in the UNC13D gene, which result in impaired processing of cytotoxic vesicles and hence compromised T and NK cell-mediated killing. Current treatment protocols, including allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, still show 30-40% mortality. As a first step to meet this medical need, we developed and tested a curative genome editing strategy in the FHL3 Jinx mouse model. Jinx mice harbor a cryptic splice donor site (cSD) in Unc13d intron 26 and develop the clinical symptoms of human FHL3 upon infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). Here, we employed CRISPR-Cas technology to delete the disease-underlying mutation in HSCs, and transplanted the Unc13d-edited stem cells into busulfan-conditioned Jinx recipient mice. Genotyping, phenotyping and CAST-Seq based off-target analyses of cells isolated from transplanted mice revealed efficient gene editing (>95%), polyclonality of the T cell receptor repertoire, and neither signs of off-target effects nor leukemogenesis. Unc13d transcription levels of edited and wildtype cells were comparable. LCMV challenge of the transplanted mice resulted in acute HLH in Jinx mice transplanted with mock-edited HSCs, while Jinx mice grafted with Unc13d-edited cells showed rapid virus clearance and protection from HLH. In sum, our study demonstrates that transplantation of CRISPR-Cas edited HSCs supports the development of a functional polyclonal T cell response in the absence of genotoxicity-associated clonal outgrowth or leukemogenesis.
