Mapping naturally presented T-cell antigens in medulloblastoma based on integrative multi-omics [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Medulloblastoma is the most frequent malignant primary brain tumor in children. Despite recent advances in integrated genomics, the prognosis in children with high-risk medulloblastoma remains devastating, and new tumor-specific therapeutic approaches are needed. Here, we present an atlas of naturally presented T-cell antigens in medulloblastoma. We mapped the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-presented peptidomes of 28 tumors and performed comparative immunopeptidome profiling against an in-house benign database. Medulloblastoma proved to be a rich source of novel tumor-associated antigens, naturally presented on HLA class I and II molecules. Remarkably, most tumor-associated peptides and proteins were subgroup-specific, whereas shared presentation among all subgroups of medulloblastoma (WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4) was rare. Functional testing of top-ranking novel candidate antigens demonstrated the induction of peptide-specific T-cell responses, supporting their potential for T-cell immunotherapy. This study is an in-depth mapping of naturally presented T-cell antigens in medulloblastoma. Integration of immunopeptidomics, transcriptomics, and epigenetic data led to the identification of a large set of actionable targets that can be further used for the translation into the clinical setting by facilitating the informed design of immunotherapeutic approaches to children with medulloblastoma.

Immune surveillance of acute myeloid leukemia is mediated by HLA-presented antigens on leukemia progenitor cells

Project description:Persistent therapy-resistant leukemia progenitor cells (LPC) are a main cause of disease relapse and recurrence in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Specific LPC-targeting therapies may thus improve treatment outcome of AML patients. We demonstrated that LPCs present human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted cancer antigens that induce T cell responses allowing for immune surveillance of AML. Using a mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics approach, we characterized the antigenic landscape of patient LPCs and identified AML/LPC-associated HLA-presented antigens including mutation-derived and cryptic neoepitopes as prime targets for development of T cell-based immunotherapeutic approaches. We observed frequent spontaneous memory T cells targeting these AML/LPC-associated antigens in AML patients and showed that antigen-specific T cell recognition and HLA class II immunopeptidome diversity impacts clinical outcome. Our results pave the way for implementation of AML/LPC-associated antigens for T cell-based immunotherapeutic approaches to specifically target and eliminate residual LPCs in AML patients.

TOFIMS mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics refines tumor antigen identification

Project description:T cell recognition of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-presented tumor-associated peptides is central for cancer immune surveillance. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based immunopeptidomics represents the only unbiased method for directly identifying and characterizing naturally presented tumor-associated peptides, which represent a key prerequisite for the development of T cell-based immunotherapies. This study reports on the de novo implementation of ion mobility separation-based timsTOF MS for next-generation immunopeptidomics, enabling high-speed and sensitive detection of HLA peptides. A direct comparison of timsTOF-based with state-of-the-art immunopeptidomics using orbitrap technology showed significantly increased HLA peptide identifications from benign and malignant primary samples of solid tissue and hematological origin. First application of timsTOF immunopeptidomics for tumor antigen discovery enabled (i) the expansion of benign reference immunopeptidome databases with more than 150,000 HLA peptides from 94 primary benign tissue samples, (ii) the refinement of previously described tumor antigens, and (iii) the identification of a vast array of novel tumor antigens comprising low abundant neoepitopes that might serve as targets for future cancer immunotherapy development.

Immunoprecipitation methods impact the peptide repertoire in immunopeptidomics

Project description:T cell-based immunotherapies, which have become a promising treatment approach for cancer patients, rely on the identification of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-presented peptides. Mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics is the state-of-the-art method for the identification of clinically relevant naturally presented HLA-restricted tumor-associated antigens. In the last years, different methods for the immunoprecipitation-based isolation of HLA-presented peptides have been developed and are used in the field. Here, we performed a comparison of a column-based with a high-throughput 96-well method by analyzing the immunopeptidome of cell lines as well as primary solid and hematological tumor samples. Whereas no differences in the total number of identified peptides were observed, the column-based method identified method-exclusive peptides that featured higher hydrophobicity and exhibited improved predicted immunogenicity. Adding an additional acetonitrile elution step to the 96-well method could partially reduce this hydrophilic shift. In total, we showed that immunopeptidomics data is affected by the immunoprecipitation method used for isolation, which might have a critical impact on the selection of target antigens and has to be considered when selecting clinically relevant targets for the development of T cell-based immunotherapies.

Immune surveillance of acute myeloid leukemia is mediated by HLA-presented antigens on leukemia progenitor cells

Upstream open reading frames regulate proto-oncogene translation and encode HLA-presented immunogenic tumor antigens

Project description:Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) represent translational control elements within eukaryotic transcript leader sequences. Recent data showed that uORFs can encode for biologically active proteins and human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-presented peptides and suggest their potential role in cancer cell development and survival. However, it is so far unclear if uORF-encoded peptides could serve as tumor-associated antigen targets and thus also play a role in cancer immune surveillance. Combining mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidome analysis in primary tumor and healthy tissues and evaluation of proto-oncogene-associated uORF-mediated translational control we here identified a panel of HLA-presented tumor-associated uORF-derived antigens. These uORF-derived tumor antigens were further shown to induce multifunctional antigen-specific T cells, validating their suitability as antigen targets for T cell-based cancer immunotherapy. Our data further unravel the role of uORF-encoded peptides in malignant disease, suggesting uORF-derived tumor-associated antigens as targets for anti-cancer immune surveillance and immunotherapy development.

Biogenesis of HLA ligand presentation in immune cells upon activation reveals changes in peptide length preference

Project description:Induction of an effective tumor immunity is a complex process that includes the appropriate presentation of the tumor antigens, activation of specific T cells, and the elimination of malignant cells. Potent and efficient T cell activation is dependent on multiple factors, such as timely expression of co-stimulatory molecules, the differentiation state of professional antigen presenting cells (e.g. dendritic cells; DCs), the functionality of the antigen processing and presentation machinery (APPM), and the repertoire of HLA class I and II-bound peptides (termed immunopeptidome) presented to T cells. So far, how molecular perturbations underlying DCs maturation and differentiation affect the in vivo cross-presented HLA class I and II immunopeptidomes is largely unknown. Yet, this knowledge is crucial for further development of DC-based immunotherapy approaches. We applied a state-of-the-art sensitive MS-based immunopeptidomics approach to characterize the naturally presented HLA-I and -II immunopeptidomes eluted from autologous immune cells having distinct functional and biological states including CD14+ monocytes, immature DC (ImmDC) and mature DC (MaDC) monocyte-derived DCs and naive or activated T and B cells. We revealed a presentation of significantly longer HLA peptides upon activation that is HLA allotype specific. This was apparent in the self-peptidome upon cell activation and in the context of presentation of exogenously loaded antigens. Importantly, a similar trend was also present in a large collection of immunogenic HLA-I epitopes from pathogens, suggesting that peptide length is an important feature with potential implications on the rational design of anti-cancer vaccines.

IFNγ modulates the immunopeptidome of triple negative breast cancer cells by enhancing and diversifying antigen processing and presentation

Project description:To identify potential T-cell targets for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) vaccination, we examined the effect of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ (IFNγ) on the transcriptome, proteome and immunopeptidome of the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231. Using high resolution mass spectrometry, we identified a total of 84,131 peptides from 9,647 source proteins presented by human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-I and HLA-II alleles. Treatment with IFNγ resulted in a remarkable remoulding of the immunopeptidome, with only a 34% overlap between untreated and treated cells across the HLA-I immunopeptidome, and expression of HLA-II only on treated cells. IFNγ increased the overall number, diversity and abundance of the immunopeptidome, as well as the proportion of coverage of source antigens. The suite of peptides displayed under conditions of IFNγ treatment included many known tumour associated antigens, with the HLA-II repertoire sampling 265 breast cancer associated antigens absent from those sampled by HLA-I. Quantitative analysis of the transcriptome (10,248 transcripts) and proteome (6783 proteins) of these cells revealed 229 proteins and transcripts were commonly differentially expressed, most of which involved in downstream targets of IFNγ signalling including components of the antigen processing machinery such as tapasin and HLA. However, these changes in protein expression did not explain the dramatic modulation of the immunopeptidome following IFNγ treatment. These results demonstrate the high degree of plasticity in the immunopeptidome TNBC cells following cytokine stimulation and provide evidence that under pro-inflammatory conditions a greater variety of HLA-I and HLA-II vaccine targets are unveiled to the immune system. This has important implications for the development of personalised cancer vaccination strategies.

Direct identification of clinically relevant neoepitopes presented on native human melanoma tissue by mass spectrometry

Project description:Although mutations may represent attractive targets for immunotherapy, direct identification of mutated peptide ligands isolated from human leukocyte antigens (HLA) on the surface of native tumor tissue has so far not been successful. Using advanced mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, we survey the melanoma-associated immunopeptidome to a depth of 95,500 patient-presented peptides. We thereby discover a large spectrum of attractive target antigen candidates including cancer testis antigens and phosphopeptides. Most importantly, we identify peptide ligands presented on native tumor tissue samples harboring somatic mutations. Four of eleven mutated ligands prove to be immunogenic by neoantigen-specific T-cell responses. Moreover, tumor-reactive T cells with specificity for selected neoantigens identified by MS are detected in the patient`s tumor and peripheral blood. We conclude that direct identification of mutated peptide ligands from primary tumor material by MS is possible and yields true neoepitopes with high relevance for immunotherapeutic strategies in cancer.
