Project description:Type-1 dendritic cells (DC1s) are critical cellular mediators of anti-tumor immunity, as their ability to prime CD8+ T-cells is crucial for response to checkpoint blockade and adoptive T-cell transfer. Vaccination strategies to harness this unique DC subset for immunotherapy have been limited by their rarity in peripheral blood and lack of homogeneous alternative cell sources. We have previously identified PU.1, IRF8 and BATF3 transcription factors (TF) as sufficient to induce DC1 program in mouse fibroblasts but reprogramming efficiency in human cells was low. Here, we investigated single-cell transcriptional dynamics during human DC1 reprogramming. Human induced DC1s (hiDC1s) generated from embryonic fibroblasts acquire global DC1 transcriptional profile and activate antigen presentation signatures. Interestingly, other DC subsets are not induced at the single cell level. We extracted gene modules associated with successful reprogramming and identified inflammatory signaling and the DC1 reprogramming TF network as key drivers of the process. Combining inflammatory cytokine signaling with TF constitutive overexpression lead to improved reprogramming efficiency by 190-fold. HiDC1s acquire the ability to uptake dead cells, respond to stimuli, secrete inflammatory cytokines and perform antigen presentation. Remarkably, intra-tumoral vaccination in mouse models increased infiltration of antigen-specific CD8+ T-cells, promoted a T-cell cytotoxic profile and conferred protection against tumor growth. Finally, we demonstrated efficient hiDC1 generation from human adult somatic cells including dermal fibroblasts and mesenchymal stem cells with a xeno-free protocol. These findings provide insights into human DC1 specification and reprogramming and represent a platform for generating patient-specific DC1s, a long-sought DC subset for cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:Type-1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) are rare immune cells critical for the induction of antigen-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells. The genetic program driving human cDC1 specification remains largely unexplored. We have previously identified PU.1, IRF8 and BATF3 transcription factors as sufficient to induce cDC1 fate in mouse fibroblasts but reprogramming of human somatic cells was limited by low efficiencies. Here, we investigated single-cell transcriptional dynamics during human cDC1 reprogramming. Human induced cDC1s (hiDCs) generated from embryonic fibroblasts gradually acquire a global cDC1 transcriptional profile and activate antigen presentation signatures. Importantly, other DC subsets are not induced at the single-cell level. We extracted gene modules associated with successful reprogramming and identified inflammatory signaling and the cDC1-inducing transcription factor network as key drivers of the process. Combining IFN-γ, IFN-β and TNF-α with constitutive expression of cDC1-inducing transcription factors lead to improvement of reprogramming efficiency by 190-fold. hiDCs uptake dead cells, secrete inflammatory cytokines and perform antigen cross-presentation, a key cDC1 function. This approach allowed efficient hiDC1 generation from adult fibroblasts and mesenchymal stromal cells. Mechanistically, PU.1 shows dominant and independent chromatin targeting at early phases of reprogramming, recruiting IRF8 and BATF3 to shared binding sites. The cooperative binding at open enhancers and promoters leads to silencing of fibroblast genes and activation of a cDC1 program. These findings provide mechanistic insights into human cDC1 specification and reprogramming and represent a platform for generating patient-tailored cDC1s, a long-sought DC subset for vaccination strategies in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:This study is being conducted to determine the efficacy, side effects, and toxicity of an investigational vaccine that consists of tumor-pulsed dendritic cells administered with an immune stimulating drug called interleukin-2 (IL-2). Dendritic cells are immune cells that are obtained from a subject’s blood and are important in the body’s immune response to foreign substances. This study will examine the response of a subject’s immune system after receiving several vaccinations containing their own dendritic cells which have been exposed to dead fragments of their cancer cells in the laboratory. This may result in sensitizing a subject’s dendritic cells to their cancer cells so that their dendritic cells will react with other cells of the immune system and attack the cancer. It has been shown in the laboratory that dendritic cells exposed to cancer cell fragments can provide lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) with signals they require in order to become fully activated and acquire the ability to kill cancer cells.
