CD8+ T cell-derived Fgl2 regulates immunity in a cell-autonomous manner

ABSTRACT: The regulatory circuits dictating CD8+ T cell responsiveness vs. exhaustion during anti-tumor immunity are incompletely understood. Here, we report that tumor-infiltrating antigen-specific PD-1+ TCF-1- CD8+ T cells express the immunosuppressive cytokine Fgl2. Conditional deletion of Fgl2 from antigen-specific CD8+ T cells prolonged CD8+ T cell persistence, decreased phenotypic and transcriptomic signatures of T cell exhaustion, and improved tumor control. Melanoma patients who died of their disease exhibited increased expression of Fgl2 in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells as compared to those who survived. PD-1+CD8+ T cell-derived Fgl2 also negatively regulated virus-specific T cell responses in a model of chronic viral infection. Mechanistically, the enhanced responsiveness of Fgl2-deficient CD8+ T cells is underpinned by the interaction of Fgl2 with CD8+ T cell-expressed FcγRIIB, ligation of which results in caspase 3/7-mediated apoptosis. These data illuminate a novel cell-autonomous regulatory axis by which PD-1+ CD8+ T cell responses are regulated in vivo.

Simultaneous targeting of PD-1 and IL2RBY with radiation therapy to inhibit pancreatic cancer growth and metastasis

Project description:In patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), we show that response to radiation therapy (RT) is characterized by increased IL2R and IL2R expression, decreased ILR2 and exhaustion markers. The bispecific PD-1-targeted IL-2 variant (IL2v) immunocytokine with engineered IL-2 cis-targeted to PD-1 and abolished IL2R binding targets the activation of tumor-antigen specific T cells while rescuing them from Treg suppression. Using aPD1-IL2v in orthotopic PDAC KPC-driven tumor models, we show marked improvement in local and metastatic survival along with profound increase in tumor-infiltrating polyfunctional CD8 T cell subsets with a transcriptionally and metabolically active phenotype, and preferential activation of antigen-specific CD8 T cells. In combination with single dose RT, aPD1-IL2v treatment results in a robust, durable expansion of polyfunctional CD8 T cells, T cell stemness, tumor-specific memory immune response, NK cell activation, and decreased Tregs. These data show that the novel aPD1-IL2v, leads to profound local and distant response in PDAC.

Myeloid Niches Sustain Antitumor T Cells and License PD-1 Blockade via CD28 Costimulation

Project description:The local mechanisms regulating exhaustion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and responsiveness to PD-1 blockade remain partly elucidated. In human ovarian cancer we show that tumor-reactive intraepithelial (ie)CD8+ TILs engaged by antigen are polyfunctional and upregulate PD-1, which restrains their effectiveness. PD-1+ TILs exhibit a continuum of TCR-engaged/exhausted states with variable effector fitness related to CD28 costimulation, which they receive in intraepithelial niches involving myeloid antigen-presenting cells (mAPC). Following PD-1 blockade, activation of TILs requires CD28 costimulation mediated in situ by tumor mAPCs, which is locally enhanced by CTLA-4 blockade. CD40 ligand also amplifies TIL responses in situ, especially in tumors in which mAPCs are not activated. Thus, dysfunctional and exhausted TILs, in a state of TCR engagement but without proper CD28 costimulation by mAPCs in situ, are unlikely to fully benefit from PD-1 blockade.

Exhaustion-associated regulatory regions in CD8+ tumor-infiltrating T cells (ATAC-seq for in-vivo experiments)

Project description:T cell exhaustion is a progressive loss of effector function and memory potential due to persistent antigen exposure, which occurs in chronic viral infections and cancer. Here we investigate the relation between gene expression and chromatin accessibility in CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) that recognize a model tumor antigen and have features of both activation and functional exhaustion. By filtering out accessible regions observed in bystander, non-exhausted, TIL and in acutely restimulated CD8+ T cells, we define a pattern of chromatin accessibility specific for T cell exhaustion, characterized by enrichment for consensus binding motifs for Nr4a and NFAT transcription factors. Anti-PD-L1 treatment of tumor-bearing mice results in cessation of tumor growth and partial rescue of cytokine production by the dysfunctional TIL, with only limited changes in gene expression and chromatin accessibility. Our studies provide a valuable resource for the molecular understanding of T cell exhaustion in cancer and other inflammatory settings.

Immediate dysfunction of vaccine-elicited CD8+ T cells primed in the absence of CD4+ T cells

Project description:CD4+ T cell help is critical for optimal CD8+ T cell expansion after priming in many experimental systems. However, a role for CD4+ T cells in regulating the initial steps of CD8+ T cell effector differentiation is not well established. Here we demonstrate that absence of CD4+ T cells at the time of replication-incompetent adenovirus vector immunization of C57BL/6 mice led to immediate CD8+ T cell dysfunction characteristic of exhaustion at the first detectable timepoints as well as impaired expansion of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. The absence of CD4+ T cell help resulted in antigen-specific CD8+ T cells that had reduced ex vivo cytotoxicity and decreased capacity to produce IFN-Î³ and TNF-Î±. CD8+ T cells primed in the absence of CD4+ T cells expressed elevated levels of the inhibitory receptors PD-1, LAG-3, and Tim-3, and these cells exhibited transcriptomic exhaustion profiles by gene set enrichment analysis. This dysfunctional state was imprinted within 3 days of immunization and could not be reversed by provision of CD4+ T cell help after priming. Partial rescue of unhelped CD8+ T cell expansion and effector differentiation could be achieved by PD-1 pathway blockade or recombinant IL-2 administration. This study identifies a novel, previously undescribed role of CD4+ T cells to prevent immediate dysfunction and features of exhaustion in CD8+ T cells following antigen priming. Splenic AL11-specific CD8 T cells from mice immunized with Ad5HVR48(1-7)-SIV Gag and treated with anti-CD4 antibody or not were purified by FACS on day 14 post-immunization

Dual Relief of T-Lymphocyte Proliferation and Effector Function Underlies Response to PD-1 Blockade in Epithelial Malignancies

Project description:Although understanding of T-cell exhaustion is widely based on mouse models, its analysis in cancer patients could provide clues indicating tumor sensitivity to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Data suggests a role for costimulatory pathways, particularly CD28, in exhausted T-cell responsiveness to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Here, we used single-cell transcriptomic, phenotypic, and functional approaches to dissect the relation between CD8+ T-cell exhaustion, CD28 costimulation, and tumor specificity in head and neck, cervical, and ovarian cancers. We found that memory tumor-specific CD8+ T cells, but not bystander cells, sequentially express immune checkpoints once they infiltrate tumors leading, in situ, to a functionally exhausted population. Exhausted T cells were nonetheless endowed with effector and tumor residency potential but exhibited loss of the costimulatory receptor CD28 in comparison to their circulating memory counterparts. Accordingly, PD-1 inhibition improved proliferation of circulating tumor-specific CD8 T cells and reversed functional exhaustion of specific T cells at tumor sites. In agreement with their tumor specificity, high infiltration of tumors by exhausted cells was predictive of response to therapy and survival in ICB-treated head and neck cancer patients. Our results showed that PD-1 blockade–mediated proliferation/reinvigoration of circulating memory T cells and local reversion of exhaustion occur concurrently to control tumors.

Longitudinal scRNA-Seq of immune cells from GL261 murine brain Tumors and MHC class II deficient tumor-mircoenvironments

Project description:Longitudinal phenotyping of T cells and myeloid cells in early (day 14) and late (day26) GL261 tumors. Single cell RNA sequencing of CD45+ immune cell from intracranial murine GL261-SIINFEKL tumors 20 days after inoculation. SIINFEKL-reactive T cells were sorted based on dextramer staining. Using time-resolved scRNA-seq of murine tumor-infiltrating immune cells from early (d14) and late stage (d26) syngeneic GL261 gliomas we observed constant MHCII expression by murine microglia over time and overall high but decreasing MHCII expression in late stage bbm indicating a dynamic process of MHCII expression. We show that loss of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II (MHCII)-restricted antigen presentation on bbm drives dysfunctional intratumoral tumor-reactive CD8+ T cell states through increased expression of Tox, a critical regulator of T cell exhaustion. By calculating the normalized abundance of T cell states along the pseudotime trajectory of SIINFEKL-reactive CD8+ T cells retrieved from myeloidMHCII-proficient and -deficient microenvironments, we found an enrichment of a distinct T cell state in myeloidMHCIIKO CD8+ T cells that was defined by peak expression of exhaustion markers. Mechanistically, MHCII-dependent activation of CD4+ T cells restricts myeloid-derived osteopontin that triggers a chronic activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells (Nfat)2 in tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells. In summary, we provide evidence that MHCII-restricted antigen presentation on bbm is a key mechanism to directly maintain functional cytotoxic T cell states in brain tumors.

Intermittent Administration of Tacrolimus Enhances Anti-Tumor Immunity in Melanoma-Bearing Mice

Project description:One key reason for T cell exhaustion is continuous antigen exposure. Early exhausted T cells can reverse exhaustion and differentiate into fully functional memory T cells if removed from persisting antigen stimulation. Therefore, this study viewed T cell exhaustion as an over-activation status induced by chronic antigen stimuli. This study hypothesized that blocking TCR signal intermittently to terminate over-activation signal can defer the developmental process of T cell exhaustion. In this study, B16F10 melanoma-bearing mice were treated with tacrolimus (FK506) every five days. The tumor size and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) were analyzed. We found that intermittent administration of tacrolimus significantly inhibited tumor growth, and this effect was mediated by CD8+T cells. Intermittent tacrolimus treatment facilitated the infiltration of CD8+TILs. RNA-seq and quantitative RT-PCR of sorted CD8+TILs showed the expression of Nr4a1 (an exhaustion-related transcription factor) and Ctla4 (a T cell inhibitory receptor) was remarkably downregulated. These results indicated that intermittently blocking TCR signal by tacrolimus can promote anti-tumor immunity and inhibit the tumor growth in melanoma-bearing mice, inhibiting the transcription of several exhaustion-related genes, such as Nr4a1 and Ctla4.
