β3-adrenergic receptor on tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes sustains IFN-γ-dependent PD-L1 expression and impairs anti-tumor immunity in a murine model of neuroblastoma

ABSTRACT: A distinctive feature of neuroblastoma (NB) tumors is their ability to secrete neuroendocrine mediators such as catecholamines, which through β-adrenergic receptors ligation may influence different signaling pathways in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we aimed to investigate whether the β3-AR modulation affected the host immune system response to NB tumor. In a murine syngeneic NB model, pharmacological β3-AR antagonism lead to an immune response reactivation and reduced tumor growth through the involvement of PD-1/PD-L1 signaling axis. Indeed, β3-AR blockade on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) dampened their ability to secrete IFN-γ and reduced PD-L1 expression on NB tumor cells, preventing the establishment of an immune suppressive TME. Furthermore, genomic analysis on NB patients showed that high ADRB3 gene expression correlates with poor clinical outcome. Overall, these findings indicate that β3-AR is able to sustain an immune suppressive TME in NB via PD-1/PD-L1 crosstalk, and suggest that targeting β-adrenergic signaling in NB could represent a new strategy to overcome immune escape gateway.

Combined PD-L1/TGFb blockade allows expansion and differentiation of stem cell-like CD8 T cells in immune excluded tumors

Project description:TGFb signaling is a major pathway associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with advanced metastatic cancers and non-response to immune checkpoint blockade, particularly in the immune-excluded tumor phenotype. While previous pre-clinical studies demonstrated that converting tumors from an excluded to an inflamed phenotype and curative anti-tumor immunity require attenuation of both PD-L1 and TGFb signaling, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies suggest that stem cell-like CD8 T cells (TSCL) can differentiate into non-exhausted CD8 T effector cells that drive durable anti-tumor immunity. Here, we show that TGFb and PD-L1 restrain TSCL expansion as well as replacement of progenitor exhausted and dysfunctional CD8 T cells with non-exhausted IFNghi CD8 T effector cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blockade of TGFb and PD-L1 generated IFNghi CD8 T effector cells with enhanced motility, enabling both their accumulation in the TME and increased interaction with other cell types. Ensuing IFNg signaling markedly transformed myeloid, stromal, and tumor niches to yield a broadly immune-supportive ecosystem. Blocking IFNg completely abolished the effect of anti-PD-L1/ TGFb combination therapy. Our data suggest that TGFb works in concert with PD-L1 to prevent TSCL expansion and replacement of exhausted CD8 T cells with fresh CD8 T effector cells, thereby maintaining the CD8 T cell compartment in a dysfunctional state.

Gene-expression profiles of PD-L1-affected CD8+ T cells

Project description:Programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is known to suppress immune system and to be an unfavorable prognostic factor in ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the function of PD-L1 in peritoneal dissemination. Tumor cell lysis by CTLs was attenuated when PD-L1 on tumor cells was overexpressed and promoted when it was silenced. PD-L1 overexpression also inhibited gathering and degranulation of CTLs. Gene expression profile of mouse CTLs caused by PD-L1-overexpressing ovarian cancer was related to human CTLs exhaustion. In mouse ovarian cancer dissemination models, depleting PD-L1 expression on tumor cells resulted in inhibited tumor growth in the peritoneal cavity and prolonged survival. Restoring immune function by inhibiting immune-suppressive factors such as PD-L1 may be a promising therapeutic strategy for peritoneal dissemination. Genome-wide transcriptional changes in OT-1 mouse CD8+ T cells that were co-incubated with OVA peptide-loaded ID8 mouse ovarian cancer cell lines. CTLs from 4 mice were devided into 2 groups, and co-incubated with PD-L1-overexpressed ID8 or PD-L1-depleted ID8.

Enhancing PD-L1 Degradation by ITCH during MAPK Inhibitor Therapy Suppresses Acquired Resistance

Project description:Disrupting PD-1/PD-L1 interaction rejuvenates antitumor immunity. Clinical successes by blocking PD-1/PD-L1 binding have grown across wide-ranging cancer histologies, but innate therapy resistance is evident in the majority of treated patients1. Cancer cells can express robust surface levels of PD-L1 to tolerize tumor-specific T cells, but regulation of PD-L1 protein levels in the cancer cell is poorly understood. Quasi-mesenchymal tumor cells up-regulate PD-L1/L2 and induce an immune-suppressive microenvironment, including expansion of M2-like macrophages and regulatory T cells and exclusion of CD8+ T-cell infiltration2. Targeted therapy, including MAPK inhibitor therapy in melanoma, leads to quasi-mesenchymal transitions and resistance3, and both MAPK inhibitor treatment and mesenchymal signatures are associated with innate anti-PD-1 resistance4,5. Here we identify ITCH as an E3 ligase that downregulates tumor cell-surface PD-L1/L2 in PD-L1/L2-high cancer cells, including MAPK inhibitor-resistant melanoma, and suppresses acquired MAPK inhibitor resistance in and only in immune-competent mice. ITCH interacts with and poly-ubiquitinates PD-L1/L2, and ITCH deficiency increases cell-surface PD-L1/L2 expression and reduces T cell activation. Mouse melanoma tumors grow faster with Itch knockdown only in syngeneic hosts but not in immune-deficient mice. MAPK inhibitor therapy induces tumor cell-surface PD-L1 expression in murine melanoma, recapitulating the responses of clinical melanoma3, and this induction is more robust with Itch knockdown. Notably, suppression of ITCH expression first elicits a shift toward an immune-suppressive microenvironment and then accelerates resistance development. These findings collectively identify ITCH as a critical negative regulator of PD-L1 tumor cell-surface expression and provide insights into previously unexplained role of PD-L1 in adaptive resistance to therapy.

Effects of durvalumab alone or combined with tremelimumab on preexisting cells in the tumor microenvironment

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade with anti–PD-1/L1 or anti–CTLA-4 therapies has shown promising results across multiple cancer types, but the mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment (TME) have not been fully characterized. We used single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate the effects of anti–PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) durvalumab (D) alone and combined with an anti–CTLA-4 mAb, tremelimumab (T), on distinct subsets of immune cells. Upon treatment with D or D+T, two NSCLC tumors showed elevated IFNγ responses, although they differed in magnitude of response but differed in other areas. Our results highlight that D and D+T in the TME have some consistent effects across tumors but also exhibit tumor-specific effects depending on composition and functional state of immune cells in the TME at time of treatment. This complex tumor-specific interplay of diverse immune subtypes in the TME is critical to better understand patient response to immunotherapy.

Gene-expression profiles of ascites-cytology-positive ovarian cancer

Project description:Ovarian cancer often progresses by disseminating to the peritoneal cavity, but how the tumor cells evade host immunity during this process is poorly understood. Programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is known to suppress immune system and to be an unfavorable prognostic factor in ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the function of PD-L1 in peritoneal dissemination. Positive cytology in ascites was a significant poor prognostic factor in ovarian cancer. Microarray profiles of cytology-positive cases showed significant correlations with Gene Ontology terms related to immune system process. Microarray and immunohistochemistry in human ovarian cancer revealed significant correlation between PD-L1 expression and positive cytology. PD-L1 expression on mouse ovarian cancer cells was induced upon encountering lymphocytes in the course of peritoneal spread in vivo and upon co-culturing with lymphocytes in vitro. Tumor cell lysis by CTLs was attenuated when PD-L1 was overexpressed and promoted when it was silenced. PD-L1 overexpression also inhibited gathering and degranulation of CTLs. In mouse ovarian cancer dissemination models, depleting PD-L1 expression on tumor cells resulted in inhibited tumor growth in the peritoneal cavity and prolonged survival. Restoring immune function by inhibiting immune-suppressive factors such as PD-L1 may be a promising therapeutic strategy for peritoneal dissemination. Genome-wide transcriptional changes in human ovarian cancer tissue from ascites-cytology-positive or -negative patients.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy is sufficient to promote microenvironmental normalization via Type I interferon pathway in PD-L1+ expressing head and neck cancer

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) targeting programmed death 1(PD-1) are considered effective first-line therapy against PD-1 ligand (PD-L1)-expressing head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, associated changes in tumor microenvironment (TME) and mechanisms remain elusive. Oral tumors in C57/BL6 mice were induced by administering 7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene into the buccal mucosa. Single-cell suspension was isolated from tumor tissue; proliferating cells were injected subcutaneously into the left flank of mice to establish Ajou Oral Cancer (AOC) cell lines. Subsequently, a syngeneic PD-L1-expressing HNSCC xenograft model was developed by injecting AOC cells into the buccal or tongue area. The model recapitulated human HNSCC molecular features and showed reliable in vivo tumorigenicity with significant PD-L1 expression. ICB monotherapy induced global changes in TME, including vascular normalization. Furthermore, the anti-tumor effect of ICB monotherapy was superior to those of other therapeutic agents, including cisplatin and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 inhibitors. The ICB-induced anti-tumorigenicity and TME normalization were alleviated by blocking the Type I interferon pathway.In summary, ICB monotherapy is sufficient to induce TME normalization in the syngeneic model; the Type-I interferon pathway is indispensable in realizing ICB effects. Furthermore, these results explain the underlying mechanism of the efficacy of ICB monotherapy against HNSCC expressing PD-L1 in the KEYNOTE-048 trial. This model can assist future research on HNSCC immunotherapy.

Batf3-dendritic cells and 4-1BB/4-1BB ligand axis are required at the effector phase within the tumor microenvironment for PD-1/PD-L1 blockade efficacy

Project description:The cellular source of positive signals that reinvigorate T cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME) for the therapeutic efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade has not been clearly defined. We now show that Batf3-lineage dendritic cells (DCs) are essential in this process. Flow cytometric analysis, gene-targeted mice, and blocking antibody studies revealed that 4-1BBL was a major positive costimulatory signal provided by these DCs within the TME, that translated to CD8+ T cell functional reinvigoration and tumor regression. Immunofluorescence and spatial transcriptomics on human tumor samples revealed clustering of Batf3+ DCs and CD8+ T cells, which correlated with anti-PD-1 efficacy. In addition, proximity to Batf3+ DCs within the TME was associated with CD8+ T cell transcriptional states linked to anti-PD-1 response. Our results demonstrate that Batf3+ DCs within the TME are critical for PD-1/PD-L1 blockade efficacy, and indicate a major role for the 4-1BB/4-1BBL axis during this process.
