Project description:Expressed on cells of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages, V-domain Ig Suppressor of T cell Activation (VISTA) is an emerging target for cancer immunotherapy. Blocking VISTA activates both innate and adaptive immunity to eradicate tumors in mice. Using a tripeptide small molecule antagonist of VISTA CA170, we found that it exhibited potent anticancer efficacy on carcinogen-induced mouse lung tumorigenesis. Remarkably, lung tumor development was almost completely suppressed when CA170 was combined with an MHCII-directed Kras peptide vaccine. Flow cytometry and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed that CA170 increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and enhanced their effector functions by decreasing the tumor infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and Regulatory T (Treg) cells, while the Kras vaccine primarily induced expansion of CD4+ effector T cells. VISTA antagonism by CA170 revealed strong efficacy against lung tumorigenesis with broad immunoregulatory functions that influence effector, memory and regulatory T cells, and drives an adaptive T cell tumor-specific immune response that enhances the efficacy of the Kras vaccine.

Project description:VISTA is a premier target for cancer treatment due to its broad expression in many cancer types and enhanced expression upon development of adaptive immune checkpoint resistance. Mechanisms of enhanced anti-tumor immunity were investigated using scRNAseq of the tumor immune infiltrate.

Project description:Cancer immunotherapies boost antitumor immunity and improve the survival of cancer patients. V-domain Immunoglobulin Suppressor of T cell Activation (VISTA) is an immune 20 checkpoint target but presents elusive signaling mechanisms. We report a novel VISTA binding partner, Leucine-Rich Repeats and Immunoglobulin Like Domains 1 (LRIG1), which acts as an inhibitory receptor by engaging VISTA and suppressing T cell receptor signaling pathways. Mice with T cell-specific LRIG1 deletion developed superior antitumor T cell responses. Mechanistically, LRIG1-deficient tumor-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) exhibited longer 25 persistence due to improved expansion and survival and greater effector function. Sustained tumor control was also associated with a reduction of quiescent CTLs (TCF1+ CD62Lhi PD-1low) and a reciprocal increase in progenitor and memory-like CTLs (TCF1+ PD-1+). In human melanoma, an elevated LRIG1 expression on tumor-infiltrating CD8+ CTLs correlated with resistance to immunotherapies. Taken together, these results delineate the role of LRIG1 as an inhibitory 30 immune checkpoint receptor and propose a rationale for targeting the VISTA/LRIG1 axis for cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA) has emerged as a unique immunoregulatory receptor on cells of the myeloid lineage. Agonizing VISTA on myeloid cells has recently been demonstrated to have a profound effect on dampening inflammatory responses. VISTA has been proposed to function both as a ligand and as a receptor, yet the role of VISTA as a ligand has been largely ignored. In this experiment, macrophages and neutrophils were isolated from mice and treated with LPS and VISTA to examine the effect of VISTA in dampening acute inflammation.

Project description:BackgroundCancer immunotherapy has gained increasing popularity as a novel approach to treat cancer. A member of the B7 family, V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA) is a novel immune checkpoint that regulates a broad spectrum of immune responses. VISTA is an acidic pH-selective ligand for P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1(PSGL-1). CA-170, a first-in-class small-molecule dual antagonist of VISTA/PD-L1, was collaboratively developed by Aurigene Discovery Technologies Limited and Curis, Inc. It is currently in Phase I clinical trial.ResultsIn this study, we develop homology modeling for the VISTA 3D structure and subsequent virtual screening for VISTA small-molecule hit ligands. Visualization of the binding postures of docked ligands with the VISTA protein indicates that some small molecular compounds target VISTA. The ability of antagonist to disrupt immune checkpoint VISTA pathways was investigated though functional studies in vitro.ConclusionsAffinity active molecule for VISTA was obtained through virtual screening, and the antagonist compound activity to VISTA was assayed in cellular level. We reported a small molecule with high VISTA affinity as antagonist, providing ideas for development VISTA-targeted small molecule compound in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:As indicated by its name, V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) is thought to primarily serve as an inhibitory protein that limits immune responses. VISTA-antibodies can dampen the effects of several concomitantly elicited activation signals including T cell receptor (TCR) and Toll-like receptor (TLR) activation, but it is currently unclear if VISTA agonism could singly affect immune cell biology. In this study, we discovered two novel agonistic VISTA antibodies and characterized their effects on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by scRNA/CITE-seq. Both antibodies agonize VISTA in an Fc-functional manner to elicit transcriptional and functional changes in monocytes consistent with activation. We also used pentameric VISTA to identify Syndecan-2 (Sdc2) and several heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) synthesis genes as novel regulators of VISTA binding to monocytic cells adding further evidence of bidirectional signaling. Together, our study highlights several novel aspects of VISTA biology that have yet to be uncovered in myeloid cells and serves as a foundation for future research.

Project description:Backgrounds: The present study addressed whether V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA), constitutively expressed in kidney macrophages, has a protective role in tubulointerstitial fibrotic transformation after acute antibody-mediated glomerulonephritis. Methods: Wild-type (WT) and VISTA-deficient (Vsir-/-, KO) mice were treated with nephrotoxic serum to induced acute antibody-mediated glomerulonephritis, and their cytokine and fibrosis profiles were compared. Results: VISTA was highly expressed in kidney macrophages (resident more than infiltrating subset). If VISTA was depleted, tubules suffered further damage after glomerular injury. In damaged Vsir–/– mice, the contact frequency of macrophages with infiltrated T cells increased, and then the immunometabolic characteristics of T cells changed to overproduction of interferon-γ. The Vsir–/– parenchymal tissue cells responded to this altered milieu as more producing interleukin-9, which augmented tubulointerstitial fibrosis and irreversible kidney dysfunction. The blocking antibodies against interferon-γ and interleukin-9 protected above pathological process by VISTA depletion. Conclusions: VISTA is a sentinel protein of kidney macrophages, which prevents tubulointerstitial fibrosis via interferon-γ-interleukin-9 axis after acute antibody-mediated glomerular injury.

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are a type of cancer treatment that work by targeting molecules on immune cells that can inhibit the immune system's ability to attack cancer cells. One such checkpoint molecule is PD-1, which is found on the surface of T cells (a type of immune cell) and helps to prevent them from attacking healthy cells. When PD-1 binds to its ligand (a molecule on the surface of some cells), it sends a signal to the T cell to \\"turn off\\" and not attack the cell. This mechanism is important in preventing the immune system from attacking healthy cells, but it can also be exploited by cancer cells to avoid detection and destruction by the immune system. In this study YUMM2.1 mouse tumour cells were implanted subcutaneously. The effect of IFN-γ-pre-treatment, PARP14 inhibition and PD-1 antibody treatment are reported by RNA-seq.
