Expression data from peripheral human T cells stimulated with an anti-CD96 mAb

ABSTRACT: The role of CD96 in human T cells is ambiguous. We demonstrated that engagement of CD96 on human T cells by antibodies provides a strong activating signal dependent on antibody isotype and cross-linking by a subset of Fcγ receptors. Here we used RNASeq profiling to analyze the gene expression programme associated with anti-CD96 mAb treatment in purified T cells isolated from the blood of healthy donors. We showed that multiple hallmarks associated with an activated T-cell signature were significantly enriched in the anti-CD96 treatment group. These included gene signatures associated with cell cycle progression, metabolic reprogramming, effector differentiation, and sustained proliferation and survival. Using pathway analysis, we identified several candidate molecules that could mediate signaling downstream of CD96.

Project description:Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), often adopting an immunosuppressive M2-like phenotype, correlate with unfavorable cancer outcomes. Our investigation unveiled elevated expression of the butyrophilin (BTN)2A1 in M2-like TAMs across diverse cancer types. We developed anti-BTN2A1 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and notably, one clone demonstrated a robust inhibitory effect on M2-like macrophage differentiation, inducing a shift towards an M1-like phenotype both in vitro and ex vivo in TAMs from patients with cancer. Macrophages treated with this anti-BTN2A1 mAb exhibited enhanced support for T-cell proliferation and IFNγ secretion. Indeed, M1-like and M2-like macrophage differentiation involves complex signaling pathways leading to specific gene expression profiles. Typically, stimuli from the TME induce pathways including JAK/STATs, MAPK, PI3K/AKT, NOTCH and NF-κB influencing TAMs polarization. We investigated the signaling pathways activated in monocytes and M-CSF-induced M2-like macrophages upon BTN2A1 engagement using anti-BTN2A mAb5. After 30 min of treatment, we observed phosphorylation of MAPKs (i.e. ERK1/2, P38 and JNK) in CD14+ monocytes and in M2-like macrophages, unlike isotype control-treated cells. In contrast, the PI3K/AKT, JAK/STAT, and NF-kB pathways were not consistently activated after 30 min of anti-BTN2A mAb5 treatment. Since BTN2A1 lacks intrinsic kinase activity, we explored whether BTN2A1 could form complexes with molecular partners in M2-like macrophages that provide kinase activity. We prepared lysates from M2-like macrophages treated with mAb5 or with its isotype control for 30 min and performed immunoprecipitation (IP) using another anti-BTN2A mAb followed by western blotting with anti-phosphoTyrosine (pTyr). A 70 kDa was co-immunoprecipitated with BTN2A1 and revealed by the anti-pTyr in lysates from anti-BTN2A mAb5-treated M2-like macrophages. To identify which Tyrosine kinase is enriched in anti-BTN2A mAb5-treated M2-like macrophages, we performed LC-MS/MS on anti-pTyr immunoprecipitates from treated cells. Several tyrosine kinases, including P38α/δ and JNK, were enriched. Notably, SYK was also identified and matched the 72kDa molecular weight of the pTyr band co-immunoprecipitated with BTN2A1.
