PD-L1 mediates IFNγ-regulation of glucose but not of tryptophan metabolism in clear cell renal cell carcinoma

ABSTRACT: The immune checkpoint programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is expressed on the cell surface of tumor cells and is key for maintaining an immunosuppressive microenvironment through its interaction with the programmed death 1 (PD-1). Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a highly immunogenic cancer characterized by an aberrant aerobic glycolytic metabolism and is known to overexpress PD-L1. Multiple immunotherapies have been approved for the treatment of ccRCC, including cytokines and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Recently the intrinsic role of PD-L1 and interferon gamma (IFNγ) signaling have been studied in several types of tumor cells, yet it remains unclear how they affect the metabolism and signaling pathways of ccRCC. Using metabolomics, metabolic assays and RNAseq, we showed that IFNγ enhanced aerobic glycolysis and tryptophan metabolism in ccRCC cells in vitro and induced the transcriptional expression of signaling pathways related to inflammation, cell proliferation and cellular energetics. These metabolic and transcriptional effects were partially reversed following transient PD-L1 silencing. Aerobic glycolysis, as well as signaling pathways related to inflammation, were not induced by IFNγ when PD-L1 was silenced, however, tryptophan metabolism and activation of Jak2 and STAT1 were maintained. Our data demonstrate that PD-L1 expression is required to mediate some of IFNγ’s effect in ccRCC cells and highlight the importance of PD-L1 signaling in regulating the metabolism of ccRCC cells in response to inflammatory signals.

DENR controls JAK2 translation to induce PD-L1 expression for tumor immune evasion [CRISPR screen]

Project description:RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) can recognize thousands of RNAs that help to maintain cell homeostasis, and RBP dysfunction is frequently observed in various cancers. However, whether specific RBPs are involved in tumor immune evasion by regulating programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is unclear. We performed targeted RBP CRISPR/Cas9 screening and identified density regulated re-initiation and release factor (DENR) as a PD-L1 regulator. DENR-depleted cancer cells exhibited reduced PD-L1 expression in vitro and in vivo. DENR depletion significantly suppressed tumor growth and enhanced the tumor-killing activity of CD8+ T cells. Mechanistically, DENR antagonized the translational repression of three consecutive upstream open reading frames (uORFs) upstream of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2); thus, DENR deficiency impaired JAK2 translation and the IFNγ-JAK-STAT signaling pathway, resulting in reduced PD-L1 expression in tumors. Overall, we discovered that the RBP DENR is a novel regulator in PD-L1 expression and highlighted the potential of DENR as a therapeutic target for immunotherapy.

DENR controls JAK2 translation to induce PD-L1 expression for tumor immune evasion

Project description:To identify the potential signaling pathway involved in DENR KO cells upon PD-L1 production, we harvested IFNγ-treated control and DENR KO cells for RNA-seq. Bioinformatic analysis of the RNA-seq data showed that 114 genes, including PD-L1, were significantly downregulated in DENR KO cells, and multiple classical signaling pathways, including JAK-STAT, and PD-L1, were enriched.

Alterations of Ceramide Synthesis Induce PD-L1 Internalization and Signaling to Regulate Tumor Metastasis and Immunotherapy Response

Project description:Programmed death-ligand 1, PD-L1 (CD274) facilitates immune evasion and exerts pro-survival functions in cancer cells. Here, we report a new mechanism whereby internalization of PD-L1 in response to alterations of bioactive lipid/ceramide metabolism by ceramide synthase 4 (CerS4) induces sonic-hedgehog (Shh) and TGF- receptor signaling to enhance tumor metastasis in triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC), exhibiting immunotherapy resistance. Mechanistically, data showed that internalized PD-L1 interacts with an RNA-binding protein Caprin-1 to stabilize Shh/TGFBR1/Wnt mRNAs to induce -catenin signaling and TNBC growth/metastasis, consistent with increased infiltration of FoxP3+ T regs and resistance to immunotherapy. While mammary tumors developed in MMTV-PyMT/CerS4-/- were highly metastatic, targeting the Shh/PD-L1 axis using Sonidegib and anti-PD-L1 antibody vastly decreased tumor growth and metastasis, consistent with the inhibition of PD-L1 internalization and Shh/Wnt signaling, restoring anti-tumor immune response. These data, validated in clinical samples and databases, provide a mechanism-based therapeutic strategy to improve immunotherapy responses in metastatic TNBCs.

Lipid Metabolism Alterations Induce PD-L1 Internalization and Signaling to Regulate Breast Cancer Metastasis and Response to Immunotherapy [EXOSC10 RNA-IP-seq]

Project description:Programmed death-ligand 1, PD-L1 (CD274), is expressed by cancer cells to facilitate immune evasion. PD-L1 also exerts pro-survival functions in cancer cells, and mechanisms that regulate intracellular PD-L1 signaling remain largely unknown. Here, we report a new mechanism whereby internalization of PD-L1 in response to alterations of bioactive lipid/ceramide metabolism by ceramide synthase 4 (CerS4) induces sonic-hedgehog (Shh) and TGF-b-receptor signaling to enhance tumor metastasis in triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC), which are highly resistant to immunotherapy. Mechanistically, we show here that internalized PD-L1, mediated by its cytoplasmic domain, including the S278/S279 residues, in response to CerS4/C18/C20-ceramide downregulation or genetic loss, interacts with an RNA-binding protein Caprin-1 in various metastatic breast cancer models, including 4T1 orthotopic breast allografts and mammary tumors developed in MMTV-PyMT/CerS4-/- compared to MMTV-PyMT/CerS4+/+ mice, consistent with Shh/TGFBR1/Wnt/b-catenin activation in-vivo. Genetic loss or molecular knockdown of CerS4 in breast tumors also resulted in increased infiltration of FoxP3+ T regs that are known to suppress anti-tumor immunity. Targeting the CerS4/Shh/PD-L1 axis using Sonidegib and anti-PD-L1 antibody in mice containing metastatic breast tumors in which CerS4 is downregulated vastly decreased tumor growth and metastasis, leading to inhibition of PD-L1 internalization and Shh/Wnt signaling, restoring anti-tumor immune response. These data, validated in clinical samples and multiple patient datasets, demonstrate a mechanism to define intracellular metastatic signaling by PD-L1 internalization in response to alterations of ceramide metabolism, providing a new therapeutic strategy to improve immunotherapy responses in metastatic TNBCs.

Human RKO cells LC-MSMS (gel-based proteomics)

Project description:Tumor cells evade T cell-mediated immunosurveillance via the interaction between programmed death-1 (PD-1) ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor cells and PD-1 on T cells. Strategies disrupting PD-1/PD-L1 have shown clinical benefits in various cancers. However, the limited response rate prompts us to investigate the molecular regulation of PD-L1. Here we identify trafficking protein particle complex subunit 4 (TRAPPC4), a major player in vesicular trafficking, as a crucial PD-L1 regulator. TRAPPC4 interacts with PD-L1 in recycling endosomes, promoting RAB11-mediated recycling of PD-L1, and acting as a scaffold between PD-L1 and RAB11, thus replenishing its distribution on the tumor cell surface.

More than a ligand: PD-L1 promotes oncolytic virus infection via a metabolic shift that inhibits the type I interferon pathway

Project description:Targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis has transformed the field of immune-oncology. While conventional wisdom initially postulated that PD-L1 serves as the inert ligand for PD-1, an emerging body of literature suggests that PD-L1 has cell‑intrinsic functions in immune and cancer cells. In line with these studies, here we show that PD-L1 potently inhibits the type I interferon pathway in cancer cells. Hampered type I interferon responses in PD-L1-expressing cells resulted in enhanced infection with oncolytic viruses in cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. PD-L1 expression marks tumor explants from cancer patients that are best infected by oncolytic viruses. Agonistic antibodies targeting PD-L1 further reduced type I IFN responses and enhanced oncolytic virus infection. Mechanistically, PD-L1 suppressed type I interferon by promoting Warburg metabolism, characterized by enhanced glucose uptake and glycolysis rate. Lactate generated from glycolysis was the key metabolite responsible for inhibiting type I interferon responses and enhancing oncolytic virus infection in PD‑L1‑expressing cells. In addition to adding mechanistic insight into PD-L1 intrinsic function and showing that PD-L1 has a broader impact on immunity and cancer biology besides acting as a ligand for PD-1, our results will also help guide the numerous efforts currently ongoing to combine PD-L1 antibodies with oncolytic virotherapy in clinical trials.

PD-L1 alteration in lung cancer affects tumorigenicity lung tumors

Project description:Cancer immunotherapy has focused on inhibitors of checkpoint proteins, such as Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1). Unlike RAS-mutated lung cancers, EGFR mutant tumors have generally low response to immunotherapy. Because treatment outcomes vary by EGFR allele, we assumed that intrinsic and microenvironmental factors are involved. Among all non-immunological signaling pathways we surveyed in patients’ datasets, EGFR signaling best associated with high PD-L1. Correspondingly, active EGFRs stabilized PD-L1’s transcripts and depleting PD-L1 severely inhibited EGFR-driven tumorigenicity and metastasis in mice. The underlying mechanisms involve recruitment of phospholipase C-g1 (PLC-g1) to a cytoplasmic motif of PD-L1, which enhances PLC-g1 activation by EGFR. Once stimulated, PLC-g1 activates calcium flux, RHO GTPases and protein kinase C, which promotes an aggressive phenotype. Furthermore, anti-PD-L1 antibodies can inhibit these intrinsic functions of PD-L1. Our results portray PD-L1 as a molecular amplifier of EGFR signaling and lay the foundation for understanding resistance of EGFR+ tumors to immunotherapy.

STUB1 dampens IFNγ response in tumors by destabilizing the IFNγ receptor complex

Project description:Despite its success, immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) cannot induce durable responses in most patients. This is partially attributed to reduced sensitivity to interferon gamma (IFNγ). Thus, elevating tumor IFNγ-receptor 1 (IFNγ-R1) expression to enhance IFNγ-mediated cytotoxicity is of clinical interest. Here, we demonstrate higher IFNγ-R1 expression to sensitize tumors to IFNγ-mediated killing. To unveil the largely undefined mechanisms of IFNγ-R1 expression, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screen for suppressors of IFNγ-R1 tumor cell surface abundance. We uncovered STUB1 as key mediator for proteasomally degrading IFNγ-R1/JAK1 complex. Conversely, STUB1 inactivation in tumor cells amplified IFNγ signaling and sensitized to cytotoxic T cells, but permitted IFNγ-induced PD-L1 expression. Rationally combining STUB1 inactivation with anti-PD-1 treatment effectively eliminated tumors in vivo. Clinically corroborating this is a STUB1 transcriptomic signature that associates with response to anti-PD-1 treatment in two patient cohorts. Thus, uncovering STUB1 as a pivotal regulator of IFNγ signaling and a synergistic target for anti-PD-1 treatment.
