Mogat1 drives metabolic adaptations to evade immune surveillance

ABSTRACT: Despite immune checkpoint blockades have achieved remarkable success, most patients with solid tumors do not respond or develop resistance, suggesting additional treatment strategies are needed. Concentrated efforts are directed toward revitalizing the IFNγ pathway or amplifying antigen presentation capabilities, alternative mechanisms underlying immune evasion remain poorly understood. Using an unbiased whole-genome in vivo natural selection screen, we identified an uncharacterized role of Monoacylglycerol O-Acyltransferase 1 (Mogat1) as a critical modulator of tumor immune evasion. As tumors progress and expand, they undergo systemic metabolic adaptations to evade immune surveillance. Tumor cells exploit Mogat1 to sequester excess fatty acids into triglycerides, orchestrating metabolic reprogramming that simultaneously fuels tumor growth and creates an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Mogat1 inhibition suppresses tumor growth by promoting T-cell infiltration and cytotoxicity. Remarkably, Mogat1 loss facilitates the circumvention of PD-1 checkpoint blockade resistance. This heightened inflammatory response, characterized by increased interferon sensitivity, circumvents the need for conventional antigen presentation. Our findings reveal a novel lipid metabolism-centered mechanism of immune evasion and offer a potential strategy to enhance cancer immunotherapy efficacy.

Tumors exploit FTO-mediated regulation of glycolytic metabolism to evade immune surveillance

Project description:Ever-increasing understanding about the complexity of factors and regulatory layers that contribute to immune evasion facilitates the development of immunotherapies. However, the diversity of malignant tumors limits many known mechanisms in specific genetic and epigenetic contexts, manifesting the need to discover general driver genes. Here, we have identified the m6A demethylase FTO as an essential epitranscriptomic regulator utilized by tumors to escape immune surveillance through regulation of glycolytic metabolism. We show that FTO-mediated m6A demethylation in tumor cells elevates transcription factors c-Jun, JunB, and C/EBPβ, which allows the rewiring of glycolytic metabolism. Fto knockdown impairs the glycolytic activity of tumor cells, which restores the function of CD8+ T cells, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. Furthermore, we developed a small-molecule compound Dac51 that can inhibit the activity of FTO, block FTO-mediated immune evasion, and synergize with checkpoint blockade for better tumor control, suggesting reprogramming RNA epitranscriptome as a potential strategy for immunotherapy.

Inhibiting Monoacylglycerol Acyltransferase 1 Ameliorates Hepatic Metabolic Abnormalities, but not Inflammation and Injury in Mice

Project description:Abnormalities in hepatic lipid metabolism are believed to play a critical role in the etiology of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Monoacylglycerol acyltransferase (MGAT) enzymes convert monoacylglycerol to diacylglycerol, which is the penultimate step in one pathway for triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis. Hepatic expression of Mogat1, which encodes an MGAT enzyme, is increased in the livers of mice with hepatic steatosis and knocking down Mogat1 improves insulin sensitivity, but whether increased MGAT activity plays a role in the etiology of NASH is unclear. To examine the effects of knocking down Mogat1 in the liver on the development of NASH, C57BL/6 mice were placed on a diet containing high levels of trans fatty acids, fructose, and cholesterol (HTF-C diet) or a low fat control diet for 4 weeks. Mice were then injected with antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) to knockdown Mogat1 or a scrambled ASO control for 12 weeks while remaining on diet. HTF-C diet caused glucose intolerance, hepatic steatosis, and induced hepatic gene expression markers of inflammation, macrophage infiltration, and stellate cell activation. Mogat1 ASO treatment, which suppressed Mogat1 expression in liver, attenuated weight gain, improved glucose tolerance, and decreased hepatic TAG content compared to control ASO-treated mice on HTF-C chow. However, Mogat1 ASO treatment did not reduce hepatic DAG, cholesterol, or free fatty acid content, improve histologic measures of liver injury, or reduce expression of markers of stellate cell activation, liver inflammation, and injury. In conclusion, inhibition of hepatic Mogat1 in HTF-C diet-fed mice improves glucose tolerance and hepatic TAG accumulation without attenuating liver inflammation and injury. Total RNA obtained from liver of 4 control vs. 4 Mogat1 ASO treated higf-fat diet (HFD) fed mice.

Quiescent tissue stem cells evade immune surveillance

Project description:Stem cells are critical for the maintenance of many tissues, and thus their integrity is crucial, but whether this integrity is maintained in the face of an immune response is not well defined. Here we set out to determine the outcome of T cell interactions with adult stem cells in their physiological niche. We find that fast cycling epithelial stem cells, including Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells, as well as ovary and mammary stem cells, are eliminated by activated T-cells, but slow cycling stem cells, specifically hair follicle and muscle stem cells, are resistant to T-cell killing. This is an intrinsic property of the quiescent stem cells resulting from systemic downregulation of the antigen presentation machinery, including MHC class I, Tap proteins, and the transactivator Nlrc5, which is reversed upon stem cell entry into the cell cycle. These findings identify a link between tissue stem cell quiescence, antigen presentation, and immune evasion, and may help explain why mutations in long-lived stem cells would not lead to immune editing. They also suggest how cancer-initiating cells may evade immune surveillance

Triple-negative breast cancer cells rely on kinase-independent functions of CDK8 to evade NK-cell-mediated tumor surveillance

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive malignant disease that is responsible for approximately 15% of breast cancers. The standard of care relies on surgery and chemotherapy but the prognosis is poor and there is an urgent need for new therapeutic strategies. Recent in silico studies have revealed an inverse correlation between recurrence-free survival and the level of cyclin- dependent kinase 8 (CDK8) in breast cancer patients. CDK8 is known to have a role in natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity, but its function in TNBC progression and immune cell recognition or escape has not been investigated. We have used a murine model of orthotopic breast cancer to study the tumor-intrinsic role of CDK8 in TNBC. Knockdown of CDK8 in TNBC cells impairs tumor regrowth upon surgical removal and prevents metastasis. In the absence of CDK8, the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is impaired and immune-mediated tumor-cell clearance is facilitated. CDK8 drives EMT in TNBC cells in a kinase-independent manner. In vivo experiments have confirmed that CDK8 is a crucial regulator of NK-cell-mediated immune evasion in TNBC. The studies also show that CDK8 is involved in regulating the checkpoint inhibitor programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). The CDK8–PD-L1 axis is found in mouse and human TNBC cells, underlining the importance of CDK8-driven immune cell evasion in these highly aggressive breast cancer cells. Our data link CDK8 to PD-L1 expression and provide a rationale for investigating the possibility of CDK8-directed therapy for TNBC.

UBE2D3 is an Intracellular Checkpoint in Pancreatic Ductal Carcinoma that Restricts CD8+ T-Cell Antitumor Immunity

Project description:Ubiquitylation is pivotal in regulating cellular responses, with its aberration implicated in tumor immune evasion. However, the impact of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) on this evasion remains unclear. Here, we employ a systematic approach to demonstrate that in pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDAC), the inflammatory microenvironment induces overexpression of the E2 enzyme UBE2D3, contributing to tumor progression through non-oncogene codependent disorders. Through gene expression analyses and functional investigations, we elucidate a mechanism wherein cancer cells evade T cell immune responses by UBE2D3 binding to the ubiquitin ligase KLHL13 to co-ubiquitinate TAP2. This K63-linkage ubiquitination at the lysine 245 site of TAP2 impedes antigenic peptide transport by the TAP1/TAP2 complex, hindering p-MHC assembly and presentation in cancer cells. We demonstrate that genetic inhibition of UBE2D3 enhances tumor-specific CD8+ T cell proliferation and extends effector-memory-like phenotypes. Building on this, we develop a small-molecule inhibitor, QX-6, targeting the active site of UBE2D3 to disrupt its function. Pharmacologic inhibition of UBE2D3 blocks the ubiquitylation of antigen presentation-related substrates, leading to increased p-MHC presentation by cancer cells and reduced T cell exhaustion. Using immunocompetent and humanized models, we elucidate the therapeutic efficacy of targeting UBE2D3. Furthermore, we evaluate the synergistic anti-tumor effects of QX-6 in combination with KRAS-targeted TCR-T cell immunotherapy. In summary, our study reveals a post-translational modification mechanism wherein the intracellular checkpoint UBE2D3 regulates the TAP2 switch to control cancer cell evasion of CTLs, presenting a potential immunotherapeutic strategy to improve PDAC treatment outcomes.
