Project description:Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine with diverse roles in homeostasis, inflammation, and cancer. In multiple syngeneic mouse tumor models, we found that blockade of IL-6 signaling (using an IL6R-blocking antibody) synergized with anti-PD-L1 therapy to drive potent anti-tumor CD8 T cell responses and tumor rejection. To better characterize the cell-intrinsic effects of IL-6 signaling in tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells during anti-PD-L1 therapy, we generated mice with genetic IL6R deficiency restricted to CD8 T cells by crossing IL6R.loxp and E8i.CD8.Cre mice (CD8ΔIL6R mice). Compared to WT littermate controls, we found that CD8ΔIL6R mice had stronger respones to anti-PD-L1 therapy in terms of improved CD8 T cell function (e.g. increased production of IFNγ and TNF, measured by flow cytometry) and enhanced tumor control, suggesting that direct IL-6 signaling in CD8 T cells is sufficient to impair anti-tumor immunity. In this study we aimed to characterize the phenotype of IL6R-deficient CD8 T cells in more detail via whole-transcriptome profiling. CD8ΔIL6R and WT littermates were implanted with MC38 tumors in the right flank; when tumors reached ~150mm3 in volume, animals were randomized to isotype control or anti-PD-L1 treatment. CD8 T cells were FACS-purified from tumor tissue 7 days later and profiled by bulk RNAseq. Compared to cells from WT mice, CD8 T cells from CD8ΔIL6R mice showed increased expression of interferon-driven gene signatures, increased expression of cell cycle genes, and increased expression of genes critical for oxidative phosphorylation. In contrast, WT cells had higher expression of genes associated with naive and memory precursor cells. Thus, IL-6 signaling in tumor-reactive CD8 T cells limits their capacity to differentiate into potent anti-tumor effectors.

Project description:MC38 tumors resistant to anti-PD-1 treatment (MC38-resistant) were generated through serial in vivo passaging, and global gene expression analysis was used to compare resistant and parental tumors. MC38 and MC38-resistant tumors exhibited widespread changes in global gene expression.

Project description:Purpose: Use RNA-seq to characterize the anti-tumor immune response induced by ALPN-202 and compare to that of anti-PD-L1 treatment alone. Methods: mRNA was isolated from MC38/hPD-L1 tumors 72 hours after a single dose of ALPN-202 (n=4), anti-PD-L1 mAb (durvalumab) (n=4), or Fc control (n=4). Results: ALPN-202 treatment resulted in elevated expression of multiple T cell, NK cell, myeloid cell genes. Additionally, there was a strong increase in genes commonly associated with a proinflammatory response including cytokines, chemokines and surface markers. Conclusions: ALPN-202 treatment resulted in a strong anti-tumor immune response that was more potent than that generated by blockade of PD-L1 alone.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) express high levels of PD-L1 in the tumor microenvironment and draining lymph nodes. Here, we explore the roles of PD-L1 signaling during immunogenic chemotherapy. DC-conditional PD-L1 knockout mice were inoculated with MC38-OVA tumors and treated with doxorubicin. T cells were isolated from draining lymph node for single cell RNA sequencing.

Project description:Blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 immunosuppressive pathway has shown promise in the treatment of certain cancers including melanoma. This study investigates differences in the gene expression profiles of human melanomas that do or do not display the immunosuppressive protein PD-L1. Further understanding of genes expressed within the tumor microenvironment of PD-L1+ tumors may lead to improved rationally designed treatments. Gene expression profiling was performed on total RNA extracted by laser capture microdissection from 11 archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) melanoma specimens, 5 of which were PD-L1 positive and 6 PD-L1 negative. Details of the design, and the gene signatures found are given in the paper associated with this GEO Series: Janis M. Taube, Geoffrey D. Young, Tracee L. McMiller, Shuming Chen, January T.

Project description:Checkpoint inhibitors like anti-PD1/PD-L1 have demonstrated significant therapeutic efficacy in a subset of patients partly through reinvigoration of CD8 T cells. However, their impact on myeloid cells remains largely unknown. Here we report that anti-PD-L1 treatment favorably impacts the phenotype and function of tumor macrophages by polarizing the macrophage compartment towards a more pro-inflammatory phenotype. This phenotype was characterized by a decrease in Arginase-I (ARG1) expression and an increase in iNOS, MHCII, and CD40 expression. Whole-transcriptome profiling further confirmed extensive polarization of both tumor monocytes and macrophages from a suppressive to a pro-inflammatory, immuno-stimulatory phenotype. This polarization was driven mainly through IFNγ and was associated with enhanced T cell activity. Transfer of monocytes into anti-PD-L1-treated tumor-bearing mice led to macrophage differentiation into a more pro-inflammatory phenotype, with an increase in CD8 T cells expressing granzyme B and an increase in the CD8/Treg ratio compared to control-treated mice. While in responsive tumor models anti-PD-L1 treatment remodeled the macrophage compartment with beneficial effects on T cells, both macrophage reprogramming and depletion were needed to maximize anti-PD-L1 responses in a tumor immune contexture with high macrophage burden. Our results demonstrate that anti-PD-L1 treatment can favorably remodel the macrophage compartment in responsive tumor models towards a more pro-inflammatory phenotype, mainly through increased IFNγ levels. They also suggest that directly targeting these cells with reprogramming and depleting agents may further augment the breadth and depth of response to anti-PD-L1 treatment in less responsive or more macrophage-dense tumor microenvironments.

Project description:We designed a study to investiagate chemo-immunotheraputic effect using a mouse model of colon cancer. To investigate the anti-tumor effect of the combination therapy, the in vivo antitumor activities of different mono- and combinational therapy were subsequently evaluated using a C57BL/6J mouse model bearing MC38 tumors. Subcutaneous injection of 1×106 of MC38 cells in the right flank of a mouse was performed 9 days before therapy. The Ru-PD-L1 was administrated by intraperitoneal injection, while the DPD or DOX was given by peritumoral injection. For combinational treatment, each mouse was treated with 14 µg DPD or DOX (0.56 mg/kg) 6 hours after administering 20 ug Ru-PD-L1 (0.80mg/kg). For monotherapy, each mouse was treated with Ru-PD-L1, DPD, or DOX alone. On the 20th day, the mice were sacrificed for tumor collection. The results highlighted that the combination of ACC and DOX prodrug synergistically enhanced immune response and higher antitumor activity compared to the ACC and DOX combination.
