Mapping the genetic landscape establishing a tumor immune microenvironment favorable for anti-PD-1 response.
Identifying host genetic factors modulating immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) efficacy is experimentally challenging. Our approach, utilizing the Collaborative Cross mouse genetic resource, fixes the tumor genomic configuration while varying host genetics. We find that response to anti-PD-1 (aPD1) immunotherapy is significantly heritable in four distinct murine tumor models (H2: 0.18-0.40). For the MC38 colorectal carcinoma system, we map four significant ICI response quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with significant epistatic interactions. The differentially expressed genes within these QTLs that define responder genetics are highly enriched for processes involving antigen processing and presentation, allograft rejection, and graft vs. host disease (all p < 1 × 10-10). Functional blockade of two top candidate immune targets, GM-CSF and IL-2RB, completely abrogates the MC38 transcriptional response to aPD1 therapy. Thus, our in vivo experimental platform is a powerful approach for discovery of host genetic factors that establish the tumor immune microenvironment propitious for ICI response.
期刊介绍:
Cell Reports publishes high-quality research across the life sciences and focuses on new biological insight as its primary criterion for publication. The journal offers three primary article types: Reports, which are shorter single-point articles, research articles, which are longer and provide deeper mechanistic insights, and resources, which highlight significant technical advances or major informational datasets that contribute to biological advances. Reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields are also accepted.
The Cell Reports Portfolio includes gold open-access journals that cover life, medical, and physical sciences, and its mission is to make cutting-edge research and methodologies available to a wide readership.
The journal's professional in-house editors work closely with authors, reviewers, and the scientific advisory board, which consists of current and future leaders in their respective fields. The advisory board guides the scope, content, and quality of the journal, but editorial decisions are independently made by the in-house scientific editors of Cell Reports.
