A microbiome-produced metabolite drives immunostimulatory macrophages and boosts response to immune checkpoint inhibitors in pancreatic cancer [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The composition of the gut microbiome controls innate and adaptive immunity and has emerged as a key regulator of tumor growth and the success of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tends to be refractory to therapy, including ICB. We found that the gut microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) enhances anti-tumor immunity to PDAC. Delivery of TMAO given intraperitoneally or via dietary choline supplement to PDAC-bearing mice reduces tumor growth and is associated with an immunostimulatory tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) phenotype and activated effector T cell response in the tumor microenvironment. Mechanistically, TMAO signals through potentiating type-I interferon (IFN) pathway and confers anti-tumor effects in a type-I IFN dependent manner. Notably, delivering TMAO-primed macrophages alone produced similar anti-tumor effects. Combining TMAO with ICB (anti-PD1 and/or anti-Tim3) significantly reduced tumor burden and improved survival beyond TMAO or ICB alone. Finally, the levels of trimethylamine (TMA)-producing bacteria and of CutC gene expression associate with improved survivorship and response to anti-PD1 in cancer patients. Together, our study identifies the gut microbial metabolite TMAO as an important driver of anti-tumor immunity and lays the groundwork for new therapeutic strategies.

Time-dependent specific molecular signatures of inflammation and remodelling are associated with Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO)-induced endothelial cell dysfunction

Project description:Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are leading causes of death worldwide. Endothelial dysfunction is a critical initiating factor contributing to CVDs, which progression involves the gut microbiome-derived metabolite Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO). Here, we aim to clarify the time-dependent pathways by which TMAO mediates endothelial dysfunction.

Gut-Derived Metabolite Trimethylamine N-Oxide Promotes Inflammation and Fibrosis Following Ischemia/Reperfusion through CCR2-Mediated Macrophage Infiltration

Project description:Inflammation plays a crucial role in the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) and subsequent chronic kidney disease (CKD) following renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR). It has been demonstrated that metabolites from the gut microbiota can trigger inflammatory responses and modulate renal damage induced by IR. However, the exact driving factors and underlying mechanisms of this process remain unclear. Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a choline metabolite derived from the gut, has been observed to increase in AKI and CKD patients. Our study reveals that glycyrrhizic acid (GA) exacerbates IR-induced AKI and subsequent CKD through TMAO. To delve into the underlying mechanisms, we employed single-cell sequencing to construct a molecular map of kidney cells.

The TMAO Generating Enzyme Flavin Monooxygenase 3 is a Central Regulator of Cholesterol Balance

Project description:Circulating levels of the gut microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine-N-oxide(TMAO) have recently been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Here we performed transcriptional profiling in mouse models of altered reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), and serendipitously identified the TMAO-generating enzyme flavin monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) as a powerful modifier of cholesterol metabolism and RCT. Knockdown of FMO3 in cholesterol-fed mice alters biliary lipid secretion, blunts intestinal cholesterol absorption, and limits the production of hepatic oxysterols and cholesteryl esters. Furthermore, FMO3 knockdown stimulates basal and liver X receptor (LXR)-stimulated macrophage RCT, thereby improving cholesterol balance. Conversely, FMO3 knockdown exacerbates hepatic ER stress and inflammation in part by decreasing hepatic oxysterol levels and subsequent LXR activation. FMO3 is thus identified as a central integrator of hepatic cholesterol and triacylglycerol metabolism, inflammation, and ER stress. These studies suggest that the gut microbiota-driven TMA/FMO3/TMAO pathway is a key regulator of lipid metabolism and inflammation.

Checkpoint blockade induced CD8+ T cell differentiation in responders in head and neck cancers

Project description:Background: Outcomes for locally advanced or recurrent/ metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) remain unfavorable despite recent advances with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Preclinical studies using model antigens identified a critical role of CD8+TCF7+PD1+ T cells in anti-PD1 response. Studies on the heterogeneity and clonal dynamics of global tumor infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILs) in the HNSCC anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 response have not been explored. Results: In this study, we generated isogenic HNSCC anti-PD1 sensitive/resistant models that bore distinct cancer cell intrinsic transcriptomic programs. Tumor microenvironment characterization using mass cytometry and targeted depletion revealed the contribution of Tregs and M2-like macrophages in anti-PD1 resistance. Paired single-cell RNA and TCR sequencing on tumor infiltrating immune cells from ICB responsive and resistant HNSCC models identified a spectrum of CD8+ TIL subsets including TCF7+PD1- (naïve/memory-like), TCF7+PD1+ (progenitor exhausted), and TCF7-PD1+ (terminally exhausted). Mapping TCR shared fractions between these subsets identified that successful anti-PD1 or anti-CTLA4 therapy induced higher post-treatment T cell lineage transitions. A TIL differentiation gene signature was associated with better responses in multiple ICB clinical trials. Conclusions: Together, analyses integrating scRNAseq and TCRseq demonstrate distinct differentiation dynamics of CD8+ TILs in novel ICB responsive and resistant HNSCC models, highlighting critical aspects of CD8+ TIL differentiation in response to ICB.

Trimethylamine N-oxide impairs β-cell function and glucose tolerance

Project description:β-Cell dysfunction, manifested as impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), and β-cell loss, which presents as dedifferentiation, inhibited transcriptional identity and death, are the hallmarks of type 2 diabetes. Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiota metabolite, has been shown to play a role in cardiovascular disease. Here, we found that plasma TMAO levels are elevated in both diabetic mice and human subjects and that TMAO at a similar concentration to that found in diabetes could directly decrease β-cell GSIS in both MIN6 cells and primary islets from mice or humans. Elevation of TMAO levels through choline diet feeding impairs GSIS, the β-cell proportion, and glucose tolerance. TMAO inhibits calcium transients through NLRP3 inflammasome-related inflammatory cytokines and induced Serca2 loss, and a Serca2 agonist reversed the effect of TMAO on β-cell function in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, long-term TMAO exposure promotes β-cell ER stress, dedifferentiation, and apoptosis and inhibits β-cell transcriptional identity. Inhibition of TMAO production through either genetic knockdown or antisense oligomers of Fmo3, the TMAO-producing enzyme, improves β-cell GSIS, the β-cell proportion, and glucose tolerance in both db/db and choline diet-fed mice. These observations elucidate a novel role for TMAO in β-cell dysfunction and maintenance, and inhibition of TMAO could be a new approach for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Gene expression levels after TMAO treatment

Project description:TMAO is gut microbiota dependent metabolite catalyzed by monooxygenase FMO3 from TMA. TMAO is positively assocaited with different metabolic diseases such as diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and atherosclerosis. We used microarray to analyze the genes regulated by TMAO treatment in primary rat hepatocytes to further understand the mechanistic view of TMAO action.
