GFPT2 knockdown effects on the tumor immune microenvironment though scRNA-seq
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Through comprehensive genetic and pharmacological analyses across various models, we have identified glutamine fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 2 (GFPT2) as a key facilitator of immune evasion in EGFR-mutated NSCLC. GFPT2 escalates the expression and glycosylation of PD-L1, PVR and CD276, bolstering their interactions with CD8+T cells, and amplifies CD73 glycosylation, thereby intensifying adenosine-mediated CD8+T cells suppression. These actions collectively reduce tumor cell vulnerability to CD8+T cell-mediated death. Moreover, GFPT2 regulates EGFR glycosylation, which consequentially modulates the EGFR-dependent secretion of CXCL10 and VEGF, thus impeding CD8+T cell infiltration within tumors.
