摘要:
癌症免疫疗法在细胞毒性和辅助T细胞响应的健康程度上起到了至关重要的作用。肿瘤微环境中细胞毒性T细胞无效状态是免疫疗法抵抗的主要原因。肿瘤内髓系细胞,特别是血液来源性髓系细胞,是T细胞在肿瘤微环境中失效的主要驱动因素。我们在这里展示了,基于bbm的MHCII限制性抗原呈递对于控制脑肿瘤的生长是必不可少的。bbm上的MHCII丧失会通过提高染色质可及性和Tox的表达,导致细胞内肿瘤反应性CD8+ T细胞状态的失效。机械上,CD4+ T细胞的MHCII依赖性激活限制了髓系来源性OPN,从而触发T细胞NFAT2的慢性激活。总之,我们提供证据表明,基于bbm的MHCII限制性抗原呈递是在脑肿瘤中维持功能性细胞毒性T细胞状态的关键机制。版权所有©2022 Elsevier Inc.。保留所有权利。
Cancer immunotherapy critically depends on fitness of cytotoxic and helper T cell responses. Dysfunctional cytotoxic T cell states in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are a major cause of resistance to immunotherapy. Intratumoral myeloid cells, particularly blood-borne myeloids (bbm), are key drivers of T cell dysfunction in the TME. We show here that major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII)-restricted antigen presentation on bbm is essential to control the growth of brain tumors. Loss of MHCII on bbm drives dysfunctional intratumoral tumor-reactive CD8+ T cell states through increased chromatin accessibility and expression of Tox, a critical regulator of T cell exhaustion. Mechanistically, MHCII-dependent activation of CD4+ T cells restricts myeloid-derived osteopontin that triggers a chronic activation of NFAT2 in tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells. In summary, we provide evidence that MHCII-restricted antigen presentation on bbm is a key mechanism to directly maintain functional cytotoxic T cell states in brain tumors.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
