Project description:Tumor cells inhibit the anti-tumor immune response by expressing immunomodulatory factors and recruiting immunosuppressive cells to their microenvironment. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a population of CD4+ T cells that are commonly found in tumors, promoting a tolerogenic microenvironment and aiding in tumor immune evasion. The immune checkpoint ligand B7x is widely expressed in a broad variety of tumor types and is often associated with greater Treg infiltration, but the mechanism by which B7x promotes tumor-infiltrating Tregs is unknown. Here, we recapitulate the B7x-mediated increase in Tregs in murine tumor models and show that B7x promotes conversion of conventional CD4+ T cells into potently suppressive Tregs. We found that B7x induces global transcriptomic changes in Tregs, driving these cells to adopt an activated and suppressive phenotype. Mechanistically, B7x increased Foxp3 transcriptional expression by modulating the Akt/Foxo signaling pathway. Further, we found that expression of B7x by tumor cells reduced the efficacy of anti-CTLA-4 in syngeneic murine models in a Treg-dependent manner, but this resistance phenotype was overcome by combination anti-B7x and anti-CTLA-4 treatment. Put together, B7x mediates a novel Treg-promoting pathway within tumors and is a promising candidate for combination immunotherapy.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade is able to achieve durable responses in a subset of patients, however we lack a satisfying comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 induced tumor rejection. To address these issues we utilized mass cytometry to comprehensively profile the effects of checkpoint blockade on tumor immune infiltrates in human melanoma and murine tumor models. These analyses reveal a spectrum of tumor infiltrating T cell populations that are highly similar between tumor models and indicate that checkpoint blockade targets only specific subsets of tumor infiltrating T cell populations. Anti-PD-1 predominantly induces the expansion of specific tumor infiltrating exhausted-like CD8 T cell subsets. In contrast, anti-CTLA-4 induces the expansion of an ICOS+ Th1-like CD4 effector population in addition to engaging specific subsets of exhausted-like CD8 T cells. Thus, our findings indicate that anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade induced immune responses are driven by distinct cellular mechanisms.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) causes severe inflammation of the aorta and its branches and is characterized by intense effector T cells infiltration. The roles that immune checkpoints play in pathogenesis of GCA are still unclear.Our aim was to study the immune checkpoints interplay in GCA. METHODS: First, we used VigiBase, the WHO international pharmacovigilance database, to evaluate the relationship between GCA occurrence and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) treatments. We then further dissected the role of ICI in the pathogenesis of GCA, using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, transcriptomics and flow cytometry on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and aortic tissues of GCA patients and appropriated controls. RESULTS: Using VigiBase, we identified GCA as a significant immune related adverse event associated with anti-CTLA-4 (Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated-protein-4) but not anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. We further dissected a critical role for CTLA-4 pathway in GCA by identification of the dysregulation of CTLA-4-derived gene pathways and proteins in CD4+ T cells (and specifically Tregs) present in blood and aorta of GCA patients versus controls. While Tregs were less abundant and activated/suppressive in blood and aorta of GCA versus controls, they still specifically upregulated CTLA-4. Activated and proliferating CTLA-4+ Ki-67+ Tregs from GCA were more sensitive to anti-CTLA-4 (Ipilimumab)-mediated in vitro depletion versus controls. CONCLUSIONS: We highlighted the instrumental role of CTLA-4 immune checkpoint in GCA which provides a strong rationale for targeting this pathway.

Project description:This study aimed to explore the characteristics and role of TNFR2+ Tregs in the microenvironment and progression of gastric cancer by single-cell RNA sequencing.We obtained Tregs from tumor tissues and peripheral blood of three GC patients.Through single-cell RNA sequencing, we found tumor-infiltrating Tregs express high levels of TNFR2. The TNF-a/TNFR2 signaling pathway is activated, accompanied by upregulation of costimulatory molecules. Compared to blood Tregs, tumor-infiltrating Tregs exhibit activated and effector states. In addition to expressing costimulatory molecules such as TNFR2, 4-1BB, OX40 and GITR, tumor-infiltrating Tregs are also characterized by high expression of immune checkpoints such as CTLA-4 and TIGIT and chemokines such as CCR6.This study revealed a high infiltration level of TNFR2+ Tregs with the characteristics of activated and effector Tregs in the tumor microenvironment. Our study provides a new theoretical basis for TNFR2+ Tregs as a therapeutic target in gastric cancer.

Project description:Combination checkpoint blockade with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies has shown promising efficacy in melanoma. However, the underlying mechanism in humans remains unclear. We performed RNA+TCR single-cell analysis across time in 36 stage IV melanoma patients treated with anti-PD-1, anti-CTLA-4, or combination therapy. We developed the algorithm Cyclone to track temporal clonal dynamics and underlying cell states. Checkpoint blockade induced waves of clonal T cell responses that peaked at distinct timepoints. Combination therapy resulted in greater magnitude of clonal responses at 6 and 9 weeks compared to single-agent therapies, including melanoma-specific CD8 T cells and exhausted CD8 T cell (TEX) clones. Focused analyses of TEX identified that anti-CTLA-4 induced robust expansion and proliferation of progenitor TEX, which synergized with anti-PD-1 to reinvigorate TEX during combination therapy. These next generation immune profiling approaches can guide the selection of drugs, schedule, and dosing for novel combination strategies.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of human peripheral blood T cells Combination therapy concurrently targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints leads to remarkable antitumor effects. Although both PD-1 and CTLA-4 dampen the T cell activation, the in vivo effects of these drugs in humans remain to be clearly defined. To better understand biologic effects of therapy, we analyzed blood/tumor tissue from patients undergoing single or combination immune checkpoint blockade. We show that blockade of CTLA-4, PD-1, or combination of the two leads to distinct genomic (changes in gene-expression profile) andfunctional signatures in vivo in purified human T cells.
