Project description:The recruitment of monocytes and their differentiation into immunosuppressive cells is associated with the negative outcome of non-conformal radiotherapy (RT). However, non-conformal RT is irrelevant in the clinic, and little is known about the role of monocytes following radiotherapy modes used in patients, such as conformal radiotherapy (CRT). Here, we investigated the acute immune infiltration post-CRT. Contrary to non-conformal RT approaches, we found that CRT induces a rapid and robust recruitment of monocytes to the tumor that minimally differentiate into tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) or dendritic cells (DC), but instead upregulate major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) and costimulatory molecules. We establish that these large numbers of infiltrating monocytes are responsible for increasing type I interferon in the tumor microenvironment (TME), activation of CD8+ T cells and the reduction in tumor burden. Importantly, we demonstrate that rapid monocyte infiltration to the TME is hindered when RT inadvertently affects healthy tissues. Our results unravel a positive role of monocytes during clinically relevant modes of RT and demonstrate that limiting exposure of healthy tissues to radiation has a positive therapeutic effect on the overall immune response within the tumor.

Project description:The tumor microenvironment presents many obstacles to effective CAR T cell therapy, including glucose competition from tumor and myeloid cells. Using mouse models of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and glioblastoma (GBM), we show that enforced expression of the glucose transporter GLUT1 enhances anti-tumor efficacy and promotes favorable CAR T cell phenotypes for two clinically relevant CAR designs, 19-28z and IL13Ra2-BBz. In the NALM6 ALL model, 19-28z-GLUT1 promotes Tscm formation and prolongs survival. RNA sequencing of these CAR T cells reveals that overexpression of GLUT1, but not GLUT3, enriches for genes involved in glycolysis, mitochondrial respiration, and memory precursor phenotypes. Extending these data, 19-28z-GLUT1 CAR T cells improve tumor control and response to rechallenge in an RCC patient derived xenograft model. Furthermore, IL13Ra2-BBz CAR T cells overexpressing GLUT1 prolong survival of mice bearing orthotopic GBMs and exhibit decreased exhaustion markers. This novel engineering approach can offer a competitive advantage to CAR T cells in harsh tumor environments where glucose is limiting.

Project description:Effector (Teff) and regulatory (Treg) CD4 T cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to support proliferation and immune function. While Phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mTORC1 signaling induces the glucose transporter Glut1 and aerobic glycolysis for Teff proliferation and inflammatory function, mechanisms that regulate Treg metabolism and function remain unclear. We show that TLR signals that promote Treg proliferation increase Glut1, PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 signaling, and glycolysis. However, TLR-induced mTORC1 signaling also impaired Treg suppressive capacity. Conversely, FoxP3 opposed PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling to reduce glycolysis and anabolic metabolism while increasing oxidative and catabolic metabolism. Importantly, Glut1 expression was sufficient to increase Treg numbers but reduced suppressive capacity and FoxP3 expression. Thus, inflammatory signals and FoxP3 balance mTORC1 signaling and glucose metabolism to control Treg proliferation and suppressive function.

Project description:Neutrophils are the most abundant circulating leucocytes and constitute an essential component of innate immunity. Although their role in cancer development is still poorly defined, pro- or anti-tumor properties have been attributed to tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), suggesting major functional diversities. In this study, we focused on the mechanisms involved in neutrophil accumulation within the lung tumor mass. We first identified G-CSF as an inducer of the high-affinity glucose transporter Glut1 in neutrophils, increasing their survival ex vivo. In a genetically engineered mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma, we report that TANs have an increased Glut1 expression and glucose metabolism compared to normal neutrophils. To elucidate the impact of glucose uptake on TANs, we used an in vivo strategy based on two recombinases, Flp to initiate lung tumors, and Cre to delete Glut1 specifically in neutrophils. We demonstrate that the loss of Glut1 decreases the SiglecFhigh TAN subpopulation by accelerating neutrophil turnover in tumors through reduced survival and augmented recruitment. Accelerated TAN turnover led to a decreased tumor growth and synergized with radiotherapy. Altogether, our results demonstrate the importance of Glut1 for neutrophil turnover, which directly affects the pro- versus anti-tumor balance within the tumor. These results also suggest that metabolic vulnerabilities can be exploited to target tumor-supportive neutrophil populations.

Project description:Abstract: Transplanted tumors in syngeneic mice treated with immune checkpoint blockade and radiotherapy demonstrate synergy and an abscopal effect. Indeed, tumors generated from sarcoma cell lines transplanted into syngeneic mice are cured by PD-1 blockade and radiotherapy, but autochthonous, primary sarcomas from the same high mutational load model are resistant to the identical treatment. Here, we generated a single cell atlas of tumor-infiltrating immune cells from allograft and primary tumors, which demonstrates marked differences in their immune landscapes before and after radiation and immunotherapy. Allograft tumors are enriched for effector CD8+ T cells that mediate response to combination therapy, but the immune response to primary sarcomas shows tumor-specific tolerance. Genetic barcoding of primary tumors reveals a cellular response to combination therapy, but resistance of specific clones. Together, this comprehensive comparison of the primary and allograft tumor microenvironments identifies immune tolerance and clonal resistance to immunotherapy and radiotherapy specific to primary tumors.

Project description:Cardiac-specific Glut1 transgenic (Glut1-TG) mice exhibited higher glucose uptake and utilization compared with wild type mice. Cardiac pathological hypertrophy is accompanied by a switch of substrate metabolism from fatty acid oxidation to glucose use, resulting in a fetal like metabolic profile. However, the role of increasing glucose utilization in regulating cardiomyocyte growth is poorly understood. In order to identify novel pathways that is regulated by glucose, we performed microarray analyses using hearts from Glut1-TG and WT mice. The microarray analyses revealed that many genes that are involved in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) were downregulated in Glut1-TG mice.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade is a powerful oncologic treatment modality for a wide variety of human malignancies. Randomized clinical trials are assessing how best to interdigitate this treatment modality with traditional therapies including radiotherapy. A challenge in oncology is to rationally and effectively integrate immunotherapy with traditional modalities including radiotherapy. Here, we demonstrate that radiotherapy induces tumor cell ferroptosis. Ferroptosis agonists augment and ferroptosis antagonists limit radiotherapy efficacy in tumor models. Immunotherapy sensitizes tumors to radiotherapy by promoting tumor cell ferroptosis. Mechanistically, IFN derived from immunotherapy-activated CD8+ T cells and radiotherapy-activated ATM independently, yet synergistically repress SLC7A11, a unit of the glutamate-cystine antiporter xc-, resulting in reduced cystine uptake, enhanced tumor lipid oxidation and ferroptosis, and improved tumor control. Thus, ferroptosis is an unappreciated mechanism and focus for the development of effective combinatorial cancer therapy.
