Project description:We demonstrate that monocytic and granulocytic subsets of myeloid derived suppressor cells (mMDS, gMDSC) infiltrated in the primary tumor and distant organs with different time kinetics regulate spatiotemporal tumor plasticity. Using co-culture experiments and syngeneic mouse models, we provide evidence that tumor infiltrated mMDSCs facilitate tumor cell dissemination from the primary site by inducing EMT/CSC phenotype. In contrast, pulmonary gMDSC infiltrates support the metastatic growth by reverting EMT/CSC phenotype and in turn promote tumor cell proliferation. Furthermore, lung-derived gMDSCs isolated from tumor bearing animals significantly enhance metastatic growth of already disseminated tumor cells. A “metastatic gene signature” identified in aggressive murine tumors following co-culture with MDSC subsets predicts poor patient survival in majority of human solid tumors suggesting clinical implications of our studies.

Project description:Increased myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) frequency is associated with worse outcomes and poor therapeutic response in multiple types of cancer. In the glioblastoma (GBM) microenvironment, monocytic (m) MDSCs represent the predominant subset. However, the molecular basis of mMDSC enrichment in the tumor microenvironment compared to granulocytic (g) MDSCs has yet to be determined. Here we performed first broad epigenetic profiling of MDSC subsets to define underlying cell-intrinsic differences in their behavior and found that mMDSCs and gMDSCs display differences in their tumor-accelerating ability, with mMDSCs driving tumor growth in GBM models. Epigenetic assessments revealed enhanced gene accessibility for cell adhesion programs in mMDSCs and higher integrin b1 expression and function in mouse and human mMDSCs. Integrin b1 blockage abrogated the tumor-promoting phenotype of mMDSCs and altered the immune profile in the tumor microenvironment. These findings suggest that integrin b1 expression underlies the enrichment of mMDSCs in tumors and represents a putative immunotherapy target to attenuate myeloid cell-driven immune suppression in GBM.

Project description:Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) playing the immune suppressive roles in tumor bearing host consists of two major subsets of granulocytic and monocytic cells. Granulocytic MDSC (G-MDSC) express CD11b+ Gr-1high Ly6G+ Ly6Clow and produce high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Interestingly, neutrophils are well known ROS producing cells during immune defensive process and share same surface markers with G-MDSC. These similar features always brought the fundamental questions what’s the difference between G-MDSC and neutrophils but it’s not yet proven clearly. In this study, we examined the gene expression of G-MDSC and neutrophils using Affymetrix microarray G-MDSC (CD11b+Ly6G+Ly6Clow) were purifed from splenocytes in EL4 lymphoma tumor bearing mice by positive selection of Ly6G using microbeads isolation. Neutrophils were purified from ascitic fluids induced after injection of milk protein, casein by negative selection of F4/80 and positive selection of Ly6G using microbeads isolation. Their RNA was extracted and gene expression was analyzed using Affymetrix microarray.

Project description:Myeloid derived Suppressor cells (MDSC) are heterogenous popluation of cells consists of two major subsets namely the monocytic Gr-1dull/int. and granulocytic (Gr-1high). These distinct two subsets use different mechanism to inhibit T cell response. In addition, how the function of these subsets is regulated is not known yet. The Gr-1dull/int. MDSC are suppressing T cells through IFNg dependent nitric oxide dependent manner. However, the exact suppressive mechanism of Gr-1high MDSC is not clear. Here we studied the role of a cytokine IFNg on the suppressive function of Gr-1high MDSC by comparing the gene expression of Gr-1high cells cultured alone versus those cultured with T cells which donot produce IFNgamma. CD11b+Gr-1high cells were purified from the splenocyte of CT-26 colon tumor bearing mice. The purified CD11b+Gr-1high MDSCs were cultured with IFNg-/- antigen specific T cells and re- sorted after 48h and RNA was extracted and gene expression was analyzed using topic-defined PIQORTM Immunology Microarrays.

Project description:Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have the capacity to suppress T cell-mediated immune responses, and impact clinical outcome of cancer, infections and transplantation settings. Although MDSCs were initially described as bone-marrow-derived immature myeloid cells (either monocytic [m-MDSC] or granulocytic [g-MDSC]), also mature neutrophils have been shown to exert MDSC activity towards T cells, in ways that so far remained unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that human neutrophils – both from healthy donors and cancer patients – do not exert MDSC activity unless they are activated. Using neutrophils with genetically well-defined defects, we found that reactive oxygen species (ROS) and granule-derived constituents are required for MDSC activity after direct CD11b-dependent neutrophil-T cell interactions. Besides these cellular interactions, neutrophils were engaged in the uptake of pieces of T cell membrane, a process called trogocytosis. Together, these interactions led to changes in T cell morphology, mitochondrial dysfunction and ATP depletion, as indicated by electron microscopy, mass spectrometry and metabolic parameters. Our studies characterize the different steps by which activated mature neutrophils induce functional T cell non-responsiveness and irreparable cell damage.

Project description:Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) in the tumor microenvironment suppress T-cell mediated immune surveillance that clears tumor cells. As such, MDSC promote tumor growth. There are two subtypes of tumor MDSC, CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G- monocytic MDSC (M-MDSC) , and CD11b+Ly6ClowLy6Ghigh granulocytic MDSC (G-MDSC). Cells with these markers also exist in the spleen of tumor bearing mice or in the spleen of mice with tissue-specific inflammation. Some have argued that the tumor MDSC is an activated version of the spleen MDSC, implying that they are similar to one another. Here we isolated the MDSC subtypes from the RM-1 tumors and from the spleen of mice with prostatic inflammation (n=4 per subtype per tissue, 16 total samples). We then analyzed RNA from these cells to determine how the transcript profile was altered by tissue location and MDSC subtype. Platform: Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST v1 Genechip

Project description:The role of myeloid cells in supporting cancer growth is well established. Most work has focused on myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) that accumulate in tumor-bearing animals, but tumor-associated neutrophils (TAN) are also known to be capable of augmenting tumor growth. However, little is known about their evolution, phenotype, and relationship to naive neutrophils (NN) and to the granulocytic fraction of MDSC (G-MDSC). In the current study, a transcriptomics approach was used in mice to compare these cell types. Our data show that the three populations of neutrophils are significantly different in their mRNA profiles with NN and G-MDSC being more closely related to each other than to TAN. Structural genes and genes related to cell-cytotoxicity (i.e. respiratory burst) were significantly down-regulated in TAN. In contrast, many immune-related genes and pathways, including genes related to the antigen presenting complex (e.g. all six MHC-II complex genes), and cytokines (e.g. TNF-a, IL-1-a/b), were up-regulated in G-MDSC, and further up-regulated in TAN. Thirteen of the 25 chemokines tested were markedly up-regulated in TAN compared to NN, including striking up-regulation of chemoattractants for T/B-cells, neutrophils and macrophages. This study characterizes different populations of neutrophils related to cancer, pointing out the major differences between TAN and the other neutrophil populations. Various types of myeloid cells have been shown to promote tumor progression by direct immune suppression and by production of angiogenic factors, matrix-degrading enzymes, or growth factors. In untreated tumors, neutrophils have been reported to produce angiogenic factors and matrix-degrading enzymes, support the acquisition of a metastatic phenotype, and suppress the anti-tumor immune response. Neutrophils, like all other leukocytes, move into tissues from the blood under the influence of specific chemokines (e.g. KC/CXCL-1, MIP-2a/CXCL-2 and GCP-2/CXCL-6), cytokines (e.g. TNFa and IFN-x), and cell adhesion molecules located on their own surface (e.g. CD11b) and on the surface of endothelial cells (e.g. selectins, ICAM-1 and PECAM-1). When they traffic into tumors, they are referred to as TAN. In mice, TAN can be defined by the specific surface markers CD11b and Ly6G with low expression of macrophage markers such as F4/80. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a heterogeneous population of immune suppressive cells that are produced excessively in cancer. They comprise at least two subsets -granulocytic (Ly6G+, G-MDSC) and monocytic cells (Ly6C+, M-MDSC), potentially with different immunosuppressive properties. It has been previously shown that MDSC can enter tumors and differentiate to mature macrophages (TAM) or neutrophils (TAN). However, since no definitive markers have been established, it is unknown whether intratumoral N2 neutrophils (N2 TAN) are granulocytic MDSC from spleen that are attracted to the tumor or if they are typical blood-derived neutrophils that are then converted to an N2 phenotype by the tumor microenvironment, specifically by the high local concentrations of TGF-b. The purpose of this study was to use a transcriptomics approach to gain further information about TANs by comparing the RNA profile of these cells to naive bone-marrow neutrophils (NN) and to the granulocytic fraction of myeloid derived suppressor cells (G-MDSC). We examined which pathways and gene-groups varied amongst these 3 populations of neutrophils and performed a detailed analysis on pathways related to the main functions of neutrophils, such as respiratory burst, granule proteins, phagocytosis, apoptosis, structural genes, antigen presentation and specific immune effects. Our data defines TAN as a unique population of neutrophils, quite distinct from both NN and G-MDSC.
