The MYC/TXNIP axis mediates NCL-Suppressed CD8+T cell immune response in lung adenocarcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Lung adenocarcinoma is a deadly malignancy with immune evasion playing a key role in tumor progression. Glucose metabolism is crucial for T cell function, and the nucleolar protein NCL may influence T cell glucose metabolism. This study aims to investigate NCL's role in T cell glucose metabolism and immune evasion by lung adenocarcinoma cells. METHODS: Utilizing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we analyzed cell clustering, annotation, and prognosis. In vitro experiments involved manipulating NCL expression in CD8+ T cells to study immune function and glucose metabolism. In vivo studies using an orthotopic transplant mouse model monitored NCL's impact on CD8+ T cell glucose metabolism and anti-tumor immune function. RESULTS: NCL was associated with T cell dysfunction and glucose metabolism. NCL silencing enhanced CD8+ T cell glucose metabolism, cytotoxicity, and infiltration, while NCL overexpression had the opposite effect. NCL overexpression relieved MYC-mediated transcriptional repression of TXNIP, reducing CD8+ T cell glucose metabolism. In vivo, NCL inhibited CD8+ T cell glucose metabolism through the MYC/TXNIP axis, hindering anti-tumor immune function. CONCLUSIONS: NCL overexpression suppresses CD8+ T cell glucose metabolism and anti-tumor immune function, promoting lung adenocarcinoma progression via the MYC/TXNIP axis.

Oncogene-induced matrix reorganization controls CD8+ T cell function in the soft-tissue sarcoma microenvironment.

CD8+ T cell dysfunction impedes antitumor immunity in solid cancers, but the underlying mechanisms are diverse and poorly understood. Extracellular matrix (ECM) composition has been linked to impaired T cell migration and enhanced tumor progression; however, impacts of individual ECM molecules on T cell function in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are only beginning to be elucidated. Upstream regulators of aberrant ECM deposition and organization in solid tumors are equally ill-defined. Therefore, we investigated how ECM composition modulates CD8+ T cell function in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), an immunologically active desmoplastic tumor. Using an autochthonous murine model of UPS and data from multiple human patient cohorts, we discovered a multifaceted mechanism wherein the transcriptional coactivator YAP1 promotes collagen VI (COLVI) deposition in the UPS TME. In turn, COLVI induces CD8+ T cell dysfunction and immune evasion by remodeling fibrillar collagen and inhibiting T cell autophagic flux. Unexpectedly, collagen I (COLI) opposed COLVI in this setting, promoting CD8+ T cell function and acting as a tumor suppressor. Thus, CD8+ T cell responses in sarcoma depend on oncogene-mediated ECM composition and remodeling.

Perforin expression in cytotoxic lymphocytes from patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and their family members.

Mutations in the perforin gene have been described in some patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), but the role of perforin defects in the pathogenesis of HLH remains unclear. Four-color flow cytometric analysis was used to establish normal patterns of perforin expression for control subjects of all ages, and patterns of perforin staining in cytotoxic lymphocytes (natural killer [NK] cells, CD8(+) T cells, CD56(+) T cells) from patients with HLH and their family members were studied. Eleven unrelated HLH patients and 19 family members were analyzed prospectively. Four of the 7 patients with primary HLH showed lack of intracellular perforin in all cytotoxic cell types. All 4 patients showed mutations in the perforin gene. Their parents, obligate carriers of perforin mutations, had abnormal perforin-staining patterns. Analysis of cytotoxic cells from the other 3 patients with primary HLH and remaining family members had normal percentages of perforin-positive cytotoxic cells. On the other hand, the 4 patients with Epstein-Barr virus-associated HLH typically had depressed numbers of NK cells but markedly increased proportions of CD8(+) T cells with perforin expression. Four-color flow cytometry provides diagnostic information that, in conjunction with evidence of reduced NK function, may speed the identification of life-threatening HLH in some families and direct further genetic studies of the syndrome.
