To better guide its clinical development, we characterized the role of the OX40 pathway in tumor-reactive immune cells. We also evaluated combining OX40 agonists with targeted therapy to combat resistance to cancer immunotherapy. Experimental Design: We utilized patient-derived tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and multiple preclinical models to determine the direct effect of anti-OX40 agonistic antibodies on tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells. We also evaluated the antitumor activity of an anti-OX40 antibody plus PI3K inhibition in a transgenic murine melanoma model (Braf-mutant, PTEN null), which spontaneously develops immunotherapy-resistant melanomas. Results: We observed elevated expression of OX40 in tumor reactive CD8+ TILs upon encountering tumors; activation of OX40 signaling enhanced their cytotoxic function. OX40 agonist antibody improved the antitumor activity of CD8+ T cells and the generation of tumor-specific T cell memory in vivo. Furthermore, combining anti-OX40 with GSK2636771, a PI3K selective inhibitor, delayed tumor growth and extended the survival of mice with PTEN-null melanomas. This combination treatment did not increase the number of TILs, but it instead significantly enhanced proliferation of CD8+ TILs and elevated the serum levels of CCL4, CXCL10, and IFN-γ, which are mainly produced by memory and/or effector T cells.

Translational Relevance: Cancer immunotherapy is revolutionizing cancer treatment. However, most patients still fail to respond to currently available immunomodulatory agents. Thus, there remains a critical need to identify novel immunoregulatory targets and rational combinatorial strategies to induce robust and durable antitumor immune responses. Here, we used patient samples and clinically relevant animal models to evaluate the immunological and antitumor effects of OX40 agonist-based immunotherapy. Our results add to the growing body of evidence that OX40 agonists can boost antitumor immune responses by modulating T cell effector function and tumor-specific memory. Our results also identify a novel therapeutic strategy of combining OX40 agonist antibodies with targeted therapy in cancer patients, particularly those with tumors with loss of the tumor suppressor PTEN.

These immunotherapies have demonstrated durable clinical benefit in many types of cancer, and immune checkpoint blockade has become a standard front-line treatment in multiple solid cancers, including melanoma, lung cancer, bladder cancer, and kidney cancer (1,2). This new clinical paradigm has shifted research efforts in tumor immunology to prioritize the identification of additional immunoregulatory targets and rational combinatorial treatments to further increase the rate of potent and durable antitumor immune responses. T cell activation is tightly regulated by two sets of signals via T cell receptors (TCR) and T cell co-signaling receptors. Positive (co-stimulatory) and negative (co- inhibitory) signals from T cell co-signaling receptors direct T cell function in response to TCR stimulation. Several studies have demonstrated that activating T cell co-stimulatory receptors, such as OX40 and 4-1BB, can facilitate T cell-mediated antitumor immunity (3,4). Moreover, disrupting T cell co-inhibitory signaling pathways, such as PD-1 and CTLA-4, has been reported to reinvigorate tumor-reactive T cells and stem tumor development in patients with a variety of tumors (5). However, a durable and effective antitumor immune response only can be achieved in a small percentage of cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) (6). One mechanism of primary resistance to ICB is insufficient tumor-reactive T cells in patients with non-immunogenic tumors (7). Under the notion that activation of T cell co-stimulatory signaling pathways can augment the generation of effector and memory T cells (8), more studies are focused Downloaded from clincancerres.aacrjournals.org

O’Halloran3 and Maxim N. Artyomov1 ✉ We examine the cellular and soluble determinants of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) relative to aging by performing mass cytometry in parallel with clinical blood testing and plasma proteomic profiling of ~4,700 proteins from 71 individuals with pul- monary disease and 148 healthy donors (25–80 years old). Distinct cell populations were associated with age (GZMK+CD8+ T cells and CD25low CD4+ T cells) and with COVID-19 (TBET−EOMES− CD4+ T cells, HLA-DR+CD38+ CD8+ T cells and CD27+CD38+ B cells). A unique population of TBET+EOMES+ CD4+ T cells was associated with individuals with COVID-19 who experienced moderate, rather than severe or lethal, disease. Disease severity correlated with blood creatinine and urea nitrogen levels. Proteomics revealed a major impact of age on the disease-associated plasma signatures and highlighted the divergent contri- bution of hepatocyte and muscle secretomes to COVID-19 plasma proteins. Aging plasma was enriched in matrisome proteins and heart/aorta smooth muscle cell-specific proteins. These findings reveal age-specific and disease-specific changes associ- ated with COVID-19, and potential soluble mediators of the physiological impact of COVID-19.

  • Neutrophil Chemoattractant Receptors in Health and Disease: Double-Edged Swords
    Cellular & Molecular Immunology www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW ARTICLE Neutrophil chemoattractant receptors in health and disease: double-edged swords Mieke Metzemaekers1, Mieke Gouwy1 and Paul Proost 1 Neutrophils are frontline cells of the innate immune system. These effector leukocytes are equipped with intriguing antimicrobial machinery and consequently display high cytotoxic potential. Accurate neutrophil recruitment is essential to combat microbes and to restore homeostasis, for inflammation modulation and resolution, wound healing and tissue repair. After fulfilling the appropriate effector functions, however, dampening neutrophil activation and infiltration is crucial to prevent damage to the host. In humans, chemoattractant molecules can be categorized into four biochemical families, i.e., chemotactic lipids, formyl peptides, complement anaphylatoxins and chemokines. They are critically involved in the tight regulation of neutrophil bone marrow storage and egress and in spatial and temporal neutrophil trafficking between organs. Chemoattractants function by activating dedicated heptahelical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In addition, emerging evidence suggests an important role for atypical chemoattractant receptors (ACKRs) that do not couple to G proteins in fine-tuning neutrophil migratory and functional responses. The expression levels of chemoattractant receptors are dependent on the level of neutrophil maturation and state of activation, with a pivotal modulatory role for the (inflammatory) environment.

  • Follicular Thyroid Carcinoma but Not Adenoma Recruits Tumor-Associated
    Huang et al. BMC Cancer (2016) 16:98 DOI 10.1186/s12885-016-2114-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Follicular thyroid carcinoma but not adenoma recruits tumor-associated macrophages by releasing CCL15 Feng-Jiao Huang1†, Xiao-Yi Zhou1†, Lei Ye1*, Xiao-Chun Fei2, Shu Wang1,3, Weiqing Wang1 and Guang Ning1,3 Abstract Background: The differential diagnosis of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and follicular adenoma (FA) before surgery is a clinical challenge. Many efforts have been made but most focusing on tumor cells, while the roles of tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) remained unclear in FTC. Here we analyzed the differences between TAMs in FTC and those in FA. Methods: We first analyzed the density of TAMs by CD68 immunostaining in 59 histologically confirmed FTCs and 47 FAs. Cytokines produced by FTC and FA were profiled using antibody array, and validated by quantitative PCR. Chemotaxis of monocyte THP-1 was induced by condition medium of FTC cell lines (FTC133 and WRO82-1) with and without anti-CCL15 neutralizing antibody. Finally, we analyzed CCL15 protein level in FTC and FA by immunohistochemistry. Results: The average density of CD68+ cells was 9.5 ± 5.4/field in FTC, significantly higher than that in FA (4.9 ± 3.4/field, p < 0.001). Subsequently profiling showed that CCL15 was the most abundant chemokine in FTC compared with FA. CCL15 mRNA in FTC was 51.4-folds of that in FA. CM of FTC cell lines induced THP-1 cell chemotaxis by 33 ~ 77 %, and anti-CCL15 neutralizing antibody reduced THP-1 cell migration in a dose-dependent manner.

Lira, and Rob Leurs Copyright Ó 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 978-3-527-32118-6 j3 1 Structural Aspects of Chemokines and their Interactions with Receptors and Glycosaminoglycans Amanda E. I. Proudfoot, India Severin, Damon Hamel, and Tracy M. Handel 1.1 Introduction Chemokines are a large subfamily of cytokines (50 in humans) that can be distinguished from other cytokines due to several features. They share a common biological activity, which is the control of the directional migration of leukocytes, hence their name, chemoattractant cytokines. They are all small proteins (approx. 8 kDa) that are highly basic, with two exceptions (MIP-1a, MIP-1b). Also, they have a highly conserved monomeric fold, constrained by 1–3 disulfides which are formed from a conserved pattern of cysteine residues (the majority of chemokines have four cysteines). The pattern of cysteine residues is used as the basis of their division into subclasses and for their nomenclature. The first class, referred to as CXC or a-chemokines, have a single residue between the first N-terminal Cys residues, whereas in the CC class, or b-chemokines, these two Cys residues are adjacent. While most chemokines have two disulfides, the CC subclass also has three members that contain three. Subsequent to the CC and CXC families, two fi additional subclasses were identi ed, the CX3C subclass [1, 2], which has three amino acids separating the N-terminal Cys pair, and the C subclass, which has a single disulfide.

  • Th22 Cells Represent a Distinct Human T Cell Subset Involved in Epidermal Immunity and Remodeling
    Th22 cells represent a distinct human T cell subset involved in epidermal immunity and remodeling Stefanie Eyerich, … , Carsten B. Schmidt-Weber, Andrea Cavani J Clin Invest. 2009;119(12):3573-3585. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI40202. Research Article Immunology Th subsets are defined according to their production of lineage-indicating cytokines and functions. In this study, we have identified a subset of human Th cells that infiltrates the epidermis in individuals with inflammatory skin disorders and is characterized by the secretion of IL-22 and TNF-α, but not IFN-γ, IL-4, or IL-17. In analogy to the Th17 subset, cells with this cytokine profile have been named the Th22 subset. Th22 clones derived from patients with psoriasis were stable in culture and exhibited a transcriptome profile clearly separate from those of Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells; it included genes encoding proteins involved in tissue remodeling, such as FGFs, and chemokines involved in angiogenesis and fibrosis. Primary human keratinocytes exposed to Th22 supernatants expressed a transcriptome response profile that included genes involved in innate immune pathways and the induction and modulation of adaptive immunity. These proinflammatory Th22 responses were synergistically dependent on IL-22 and TNF-α. Furthermore, Th22 supernatants enhanced wound healing in an in vitro injury model, which was exclusively dependent on IL-22. In conclusion, the human Th22 subset may represent a separate T cell subset with a distinct identity with respect to gene expression and function, present within the epidermal layer in inflammatory skin diseases. Future strategies directed against the Th22 subset may be of value in chronic inflammatory skin disorders.

  • CCL20/CCR6 Signaling Regulates Bone Mass Accrual in Mice
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE JBMR CCL20/CCR6 Signaling Regulates Bone Mass Accrual in Mice Michele Doucet, Swaathi Jayaraman, Emily Swenson, Brittany Tusing, Kristy L Weber,Ã and Scott L Kominsky Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA ABSTRACT CCL20 is a member of the macrophage inflammatory protein family and is reported to signal monogamously through the receptor CCR6. Although studies have identified the genomic locations of both Ccl20 and Ccr6 as regions important for bone quality, the role of CCL20/CCR6 signaling in regulating bone mass is unknown. By micro–computed tomography (mCT) and histomorphometric analysis, we show that global loss of Ccr6 in mice significantly decreases trabecular bone mass coincident with reduced osteoblast numbers. Notably, CCL20 and CCR6 were co-expressed in osteoblast progenitors and levels increased during osteoblast differentiation, indicating the potential of CCL20/CCR6 signaling to influence osteoblasts through both autocrine and paracrine actions. With respect to autocrine effects, CCR6 was found to act as a functional G protein–coupled receptor in osteoblasts and although its loss did not appear to affect the number or proliferation rate of osteoblast progenitors, differentiation was significantly inhibited as evidenced by delays in osteoblast marker gene expression, alkaline phosphatase activity, and mineralization. In addition, CCL20 promoted osteoblast survival concordant with activation of the PI3K-AKT pathway. Beyond these potential autocrine effects, osteoblast-derived CCL20 stimulated the recruitment of macrophages and T cells, known facilitators of osteoblast differentiation and survival. Finally, we generated mice harboring a global deletion of Ccl20 and found that Ccl20-/- mice exhibit a reduction in bone mass similar to that observed in Ccr6-/- mice, confirming that this phenomenon is regulated by CCL20 rather than alternate CCR6 ligands.

We determined which receptors, from a panel of thirteen, are expressed in healthy human epidermis and which mono-specific chemokine ligands, se- creted by keratinocytes, were able to stimulate migration and proliferation. A reconstructed epidermis cryo-(freeze) wound model was used to assess chemokine secretion after wound- ing and the effect of pertussis toxin (chemokine receptor blocker) on re-epithelialization and differentiation. Chemokine receptors CCR1, CCR3, CCR4, CCR6, CCR10, CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3 and CXCR4 were expressed in epidermis. No expression of CCR2, CCR5, CCR7 and CCR8 was observed by either immunostaining or flow cytometry. Five chemokine receptors (CCR1, CCR10, CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3) were identified whose corresponding mono-specific ligands (CCL14, CCL27, CXCL8, CXCL1, CXCL10 respectively) were not only able to stimulate keratinocyte migration and/or proliferation but were also secreted by keratinocytes after introducing cryo-wounds into epidermal equivalents. Blocking of receptor-ligand interac- tions with pertussis toxin delayed re-epithelialization but did not influence differentiation (as assessed by formation of basal layer, spinous layer, granular layer and stratum corneum) after cryo-wounding. Taken together, these results confirm that an autocrine positive feedback loop of epithelialization exists in order to stimulate wound closure after skin injury.
