Colitis associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors [tissue_nuclei]

ABSTRACT: In this study we set investigate four aspects of irColitis that are vital to the pathogenesis of most immunotherapy related adverse events: (1) the interactions between CD8 T cells and other immune, epithelial, and mesenchymal cells that sustain organ specific inflammation; (2) the contribution of circulating immune cells to disease; (3) the epithelial and mesenchymal defects that define parenchymal organ injury and dysfunction; (4) the transcriptional features of colitis associated with anti-PD-1 monotherapy versus anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 dual therapy. We leveraged single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) of colon mucosal biopsies and paired blood specimens collected from a well-characterized cohort of irColitis cases and controls to define the cellular and molecular drivers of irColitis.

Project description:Using both global and conditional knockout mice, we demonstrated that the transcription factor Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Family Member E40 (BHLHE40/DEC1) is required in T cells for rejection of mouse syngeneic tumors upon immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) with anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatment. Using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) we profiled intratumoral CD45+ cells from syngeneic mouse sarcomas that (a) grow progressively with control treatment in either Bhlhe40+/+ or Bhlhe40-/- tumor-bearing mice, (b) reject following anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 ICT in Bhlhe40+/+ tumor-bearing mice, or (c) grow progressively following anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 in Bhlhe40-/- mice. We performed two separate scRNAseq experiments with the same conditions but harvested tumors on either day 9 post-tumor transplant or day 11 post-tumor transplant. The groups were as follows: (1) Control mAb Bhlhe40+/+, (2) Control mAb Bhlhe40-/-, (3) anti-PD-1 Bhlhe40+/+, (4) anti-PD-1 Bhlhe40-/-, (5) anti-CTLA-4 Bhlhe40+/+, and (6) anti-CTLA-4 Bhlhe40-/-. scRNAseq of intratumoral immune cells in BHLHE40-deficient mice revealed differential ICT-induced immune cell remodeling. These BHLHE40-dependent gene expression alterations were associated with altered metabolism, NF-kB signaling, and IFN- response in subpopulations of intratumoral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Intratumoral T cells from tumor-bearing Bhlhe40-/- mice also had higher transcript expression of the inhibitory receptor gene Tigit, along with altered transcript expression of chemokine/chemokine receptor granzyme family members. Bhlhe40-/- CD4+ and CD8+ T cells also had reduced ICT-driven IFN- production. Furthermore, BHLHE40 was required for ICT-induced remodeling of macrophages from a CX3CR1+ CD206+ subpopulation to an iNOS+ subpopulation. While anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 ICT in tumor-bearing Bhlhe40-/- mice led to tumor outgrowth—several BHLHE40-dependent changes were specific to the ICT treatment that was administered.
