美国宾夕法尼亚大学Serge Y. Fuchs研究组揭示,ATF3和CH25H调节内源性和免疫治疗性细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTLs)的效应吞噬作用和抗肿瘤活性。2022年9月6日出版的《细胞—代谢》杂志发表了这项成果。

他们证明了肿瘤衍生因子 (TDF) 在体外刺激了效应细胞吞噬作用并限制了CTL的肿瘤杀伤活性和活力。TDF有力地改变了CTL的血脂谱,包括消耗 25-羟基胆固醇 (25HC)。25HC抑制吞噬作用并防止CTL失活和自相残杀。从机制上讲,TDFs 诱导 ATF3 转录因子抑制25HC 调节基因——胆固醇25-羟化酶(CH25H)的表达。ATF3-CH25H轴刺激肿瘤内CTL中的吞噬作用减弱了抗肿瘤免疫,刺激了肿瘤生长,并阻碍了嵌合抗原受体(CAR) T细胞过继治疗的功效。通过使用装甲CAR结构或恢复CH25H表达的药物,他们逆转了这些表型并提高了免疫疗法的功效。

研究人员表示,恶性细胞和肿瘤特异性CTLs之间的效应细胞吞噬作用,通过靶细胞上的抗原丢失和其他CTLs对抗原经历的CTLs的自相残杀导致免疫逃避。调节肿瘤中这些事件的机制仍然知之甚少。

Abstract: Effector trogocytosis between malignant cells and tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs) contributes to immune evasion through antigen loss on target cells and fratricideof antigen-experienced CTLs by other CTLs. The mechanisms regulating these eventsin tumors remain poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that tumor-derived factors(TDFs) stimulated effector trogocytosis and restricted CTLs’ tumoricidal activityand viability in vitro. TDFs robustly altered the CTL’s lipid profile, including depletion of 25-hydroxycholesterol(25HC). 25HC inhibited trogocytosis and prevented CTL’s inactivation and fratricide.Mechanistically, TDFs induced ATF3 transcription factor that suppressed the expressionof 25HC-regulating gene—cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H). Stimulation of trogocytosis in the intratumoral CTL by the ATF3-CH25H axis attenuatedanti-tumor immunity, stimulated tumor growth, and impeded the efficacy of chimericantigen receptor (CAR) T cell adoptive therapy. Through use of armored CAR constructsor pharmacologic agents restoring CH25H expression, we reversed these phenotypes andincreased the efficacy of immunotherapies.
