Immune checkpoint blockade unleashes aberrant immune responses against the microbiota


ABSTRACT: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4 are essential components of the cancer therapeutic armamentarium. The remarkable responses seen with ICIs however, are also accompanied by immune-related adverse events (irAEs). These inflammatory side-effects impact virtually all organ systems, with the most common being the skin and gastrointestinal tract. Here, we establish a mouse model of commensal bacteria-driven skin irAEs and demonstrate that immune checkpoint blockade aberrantly unleashes commensal-specific T cell responses. Such responses caused widespread immune cell infiltration and inflammation throughout the skin, recapitulating the skin irAEs seen in patients treated with ICIs. This skin inflammation was dependent on production of the cytokine IL-17 by commensal-specific T cells, which in turn induced hyperactive responses from macrophages and myeloid cells. Importantly, these responses had long-term consequences, with commensal-specific T cells elicited in the context of ICIs being highly sensitive to re-activation by commensals months later. Together, our results establish a mouse model of skin irAEs and show that immune checkpoint blockade can potentiate aberrant immunity to skin commensals with long-lasting consequences.
