Induction of Local Immunosuppression in Allogenic Cell Transplantation by Cell-type-specific Expression of PD-L1 and CTLA4Ig

ABSTRACT: Immune rejection has long hindered allogenic cell transplantation therapy. Current genetic modification approaches, including direct targeting of major histocompatibility complex or constitutive expression of immune inhibitory molecules, exhibit drawbacks such as severe adverse effects or an elevated risk of tumorigenesis. To overcome these limitations, we propose an innovative approach aimed at inducing cell-type-specific immune tolerance in differentiated cells. By engineering human embryonic stem cells, we enable the exclusive production of immune inhibitory molecules, PD-L1/CTLA4Ig, within differentiated cells following lineage commitment. Leveraging this approach, we have successfully generated hepatocyte-like cells expressing PD-L1 and CTLA4Ig, which effectively induced local immunotolerance. This strategy was evaluated in a humanized mouse model designed to mimic human immune system. Our results demonstrate robust and selective induction of immunotolerance specific to hepatocytes, thereby improving graft survival without tumor formation. This precise immune tolerance strategy holds promise for advancing the development of stem cell-based therapeutics in regenerative medicine.

PD-1/CD80+ small extracellular vesicles from immunocytes induce cold tumours featuring with enhanced adaptive immunosuppression

Project description:Only a minority of cancer patients benefit from immune checkpoint blockade therapy. Sophisticated cross-talk among different immune checkpoint pathways as well as interaction pattern of immune checkpoint molecules carried on circulating small extracellular vesicles (sEV) might contribute to the low response rate. Here we demonstrate that PD-1 and CD80 carried on immunocyte-derived sEVs (I-sEV) induce an adaptive redistribution of PD-L1 in tumour cells. The resulting decreased cell membrane PD-L1 expression and increased sEV PD-L1 secretion into the circulation contribute to systemic immunosuppression. PD-1/CD80+ I-sEVs also induce downregulation of adhesion- and antigen presentation-related molecules on tumour cells and impaired immune cell infiltration, thereby converting tumours to an immunologically cold phenotype. Moreover, synchronous analysis of multiple checkpoint molecules, including PD-1, CD80 and PD-L1, on circulating sEVs distinguishes clinical responders from those patients who poorly respond to anti-PD-1 treatment. Altogether, our study shows that sEVs carry multiple inhibitory immune checkpoints proteins, which form a potentially targetable adaptive loop to suppress antitumour immunity.

MET regulates expression of co-stimulatory and co-inhibitory molecules in tumor cells and contributes to suppression of immune cell function

Project description:MET-altered human cancer cell lines including Hs746T (MET-mutated/amplified), H596 (MET-mutated) and H1993 (MET-amplified) cells were used. In microarray analysis, MET suppression using MET inhibitor or siRNAs up-regulated variable co-stimulatory molecules, including 4-1BBL, OX40L and CD70, and down-regulated variable co-inhibitory molecules. Among co-inhibitory molecules, PD-L1 was one of the most markedly down-regulated genes by MET suppression, which was validated at the mRNA and total/surface protein levels in Hs746T and H1993 cells. Consistently, MET activation by HGF treatment increased PD-L1 expression in H596 cells. Co-culture of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with Hs746T cells suppressed IFNg production from PBMC, which was restored by an MET inhibitor or PD-L1 blockade. A significant positive correlation between MET and PD-L1 expression was observed in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) analysis for variable cancer types and immunohistochemistry for lung cancer. MET overexpression in PD-L1-high tumor exhibited decreased expressions of T-cell effector molecules in TCGA analysis for lung cancer. In summary, MET overexpression/activation is related to immunosuppressive phenotype and is involved in immune escape of tumor by PD-L1 up-regulation. MET-targeted therapy combined with immunotherapy could be a potential therapeutic strategy in MET-dependent cancer.

Application of peptide barcoding to obtain high-affinity anti-PD-1 nanobodies

Project description:Cancer treatment has been revolutionized by immune checkpoint inhibitors, which regulate immune cell function by blocking the interactions between immune checkpoint molecules and their ligands. The interaction between programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a target for immune checkpoint inhibitors. Nanobodies, which are recombinant variable domains of heavy-chain-only antibodies, can replace existing immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 conventional antibodies. However, the screening process for high-affinity nanobodies is laborious and time-consuming. Here, we identified high-affinity anti-PD-1 nanobodies using peptide barcoding, which enabled reliable and efficient screening by distinguishing each nanobody with a peptide barcode that was genetically appended to each nanobody. We prepared a peptide-barcoded nanobody (PBNb) library with thousands of variants. Three high-affinity PBNbs were identified from the PBNb library by quantifying the peptide barcodes derived from high-affinity PBNbs. Furthermore, these three PBNbs neutralized the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1. Our results demonstrate the utility of peptide barcoding and the resulting nanobodies can be used as experimental tools and antitumor agents. Peptide barcoding can be used to screen for molecules other than nanobodies. Our methods, such as the design of peptide barcodes, the design of peptide-barcoded molecules, preparation of peptide-barcoded molecule library, and quantification of peptide barcodes, are helpful in screening for peptide-barcoded molecules.

Global hypomethylation mediated changes regulate constitutive PD-L1 expression in melanoma [RRBS]

Project description:PD-L1 is a ligand for the inhibitory PD1 receptor on T cells and its expression in some cancers inhibits anti-cancer immune response. In melanoma, PD-L1 expression is induced in response to immune stimuli but in a proportion of melanomas it is constitutively expressed. Factors that drive constitutive expression of PD-L1 are unknown. Here we performed genome-scale methylation analysis of six cell lines that constitutively express PD-L1 (PD-L1 positive, referred to as PD-L1CON) and six cell lines that only express PD-L1 after treatment with IFN- (PD-L1 negative, referred to as PD-L1IND)

Characterizing the molecular regulation of inhibitory immune checkpoints with multi-modal single-cell screens.

Project description:The expression of inhibitory immune checkpoint molecules such as PD-L1 is frequently observed in human cancers and can lead to the suppression of T-cell mediated immune responses. Here we apply ECCITE-seq, a technology which combines pooled CRISPR screens with single-cell mRNA and surface protein measurements, to explore the molecular networks that regulate PD-L1 expression. We also develop a computational framework, mixscape, that substantially improves the signal-to-noise ratio in single-cell perturbation screens by identifying and removing confounding sources of variation. Applying these tools, we identify and validate regulators of PD-L1, and leverage our multi-modal data to identify both transcriptional and post-transcriptional modes of regulation. In particular, we discover that the kelch-like protein KEAP1 and the transcriptional activator NRF2, mediate levels of PD-L1 upregulation after IFNγ stimulation. Our results identify a novel mechanism for the regulation of immune checkpoints and present a powerful analytical framework for the analysis of multi-modal single-cell perturbation screens.

The CD58:CD2 axis is co-regulated with PD-L1 via CMTM6 and shapes anti-tumor immunity

Project description:The cell-autonomous balance of immune-inhibitory and -stimulatory signals is a critical process in cancer immune evasion. Using patient-derived co-cultures, humanized mouse models, and single cell RNA-sequencing of patient melanomas biopsied before and on immune checkpoint blockade, we find that intact cancer-cell-intrinsic expression of CD58 and ligation to CD2 is required for anti-tumor immunity and is predictive of treatment response. Defects in this axis promote immune evasion through diminished T cell activation, impaired intratumoral T cell infiltration and proliferation, and concurrently increased PD-L1 protein stabilization. Through CRISPR-Cas9 and proteomics screens, we identify and validate CMTM6 as critical for CD58 maintenance and upregulation of PD-L1 upon CD58 loss. Competition by CD58 and PD-L1 for CMTM6 (via both extracellular loop domains) determines their rate of endosomal recycling over lysosomal degradation. Overall, we describe an underappreciated yet critical axis of cancer immunity and provide a molecular basis for how cancer cells balance immune inhibitory and stimulatory cues.

Soluble immune-checkpoint factors as a complementary biomarker for PD-1 blockade reflect exhaustion of antitumor immunity

Project description:BACKGROUND. Precise stratification of patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is needed for appropriate application of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy. METHODS. We measured soluble (s) forms of the PD-L1, PD-1, and CTLA-4 in plasma of patients with advanced NSCLC before PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Prospective biomarker finding trial (cohort A), 50 patients with pretreated NSCLC received nivolumab. In cohort B to E, retrospective observational study, soluble immune checkpoint molecules were evaluated for patients with advanced NSCLC treated with any PD-1/PD-L1 blockade (cohort B and C), cytotoxic chemotherapy (D) or targeted therapy (E). Blood samples were obtained from all patients and soluble immune checkpoint molecules were evaluated using a highly sensitive chemiluminescence-based assay. RESULTS. Nonresponsiveness to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy was associated with higher concentrations of these soluble immune factors among patients with immune-reactive (hot) tumors. Such correlation was not observed in patients treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy or targeted therapies. Integrative analysis of tumor size, PD-L1 expression in tumor tissue (tPD-L1), and gene expression in tumor tissue and peripheral CD8+ T cells revealed that high concentrations of the three soluble immune factors were associated with hyper or terminal exhaustion of antitumor immunity. The combination of sPD-L1 and sCTLA-4 efficiently discriminated responsiveness among patients with immune-reactive tumors. CONCLUSION. Combinations of soluble immune factors might be able to identify patients unlikely to respond to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade as a result of terminal exhaustion of antitumor immunity. Our data suggest such a combination might provide a biomarker complementary to tPD-L1 for NSCLC patients.

Clec4a4+ and Clec4a4- eosinophils in the small intestine

Project description:Eosinophils contribute to parasitic helminths- and allergens-induced type 2 immune responses. Although the gastrointestinal tract harbors a substantial number of eosinophils, the pathophysiological roles of intestinal eosinophils remain unclear. Here we identify a novel subset of eosinophil that expresses a repertoire of inhibitory molecules, including Clec4a4 and PD-L1. These Clec4a4+ leukocytes are blood-derived and exclusively present in the small intestine. Accordingly, this subset acquires imprinted features by the instruction of AHR signaling, which modulates immune responses to establish gut homeostasis. Selective depletion of AHR in eosinophils leads to a marked reduction of Clec4a4+PD-L1+ eosinophils and enhances the worm clearance accompanied by an increased type 2 immune response. Our findings may open new therapeutic avenues on primary eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders.

IFNγ treatment restores TAP-dependent presentation competence of PD-L1 sensitive PDAC cells

Project description:For immunotherapy, there is an urgent need to restore presentation-competence of cancer cells with defects in MHC-I processing/presentation. We identified two tumor-specific antigens expressed in the ER of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells (PDACCs) that induced effector CD8 T cells either independent (Cripto-1-Kb/Cr16-24) or dependent (gp70-Kb/p15E) on TAP-mediated antigen processing/presentation by DNA immunization. In systematic analyses, we showed that transplantation into syngeneic C57BL/6J mice or IFNγ-treatment in vitro upregulated MHC-I but also co-inhibitory PD-L1 molecules on PDACCs. IFNγ-treated PDACCs efficiently formed solid tumors in transplanted C57BL/6J and PD-L1-/- but were rejected in PD-1-/- mice. PDACCs induced a prophylactic immunity against tumor transplants in C57BL/6J mice when irradiated at day 2-3 post IFNγ-treatment, thereby silencing the tumor-initiated immune-suppressive PD-L1/PD-1-signaling axis. Immune-protection correlated with a significant enhanced induction of CD8 T cells against the TAP- but not the TAP-dependent antigen/epitope.
