ST6GalNAc-I regulates tumor cell sialylation via NECTIN2/MUC5AC-mediated immunosuppression and angiogenesis in non-small cell lung cancer.
Glycosylation controls immune evasion, tumor progression, and metastasis. However, how tumor cell sialylation regulates immune evasion remains poorly characterized. ST6GalNAc-I, a sialyltransferase that conjugates sialic acid to the glycans in glycoproteins, was overexpressed in an aggressive-type KPA (KrasG12D/+ Trp53R172H/+ Ad-Cre) lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) model and patient samples. Proteomic and biochemical analysis indicated that ST6GalNAc-I mediated NECTIN2 sialylation in LUAD cells. ST6GalNAc-I-deficient tumor cells cocultured with T cells were more susceptible to T cell-mediated tumor cell killing, indicating a key role for NECTIN2 in T cell dysfunction. Mice injected with St6galnac-I-knockdown syngeneic cells showed reduced lung tumor incidence and Nectin2/Tigit-associated immunosuppression. ST6GalNAc-I-deficient cells exhibited reduced P-DMEA metabolite levels, while administration of P-DMEA promoted LUAD cell proliferation via MUC5AC. MUC5AC interacted and colocalized with PRRC1 in the Golgi, suggesting a potential role for PRRC1 in MUC5AC glycosylation. Mice injected with ST6GalNAc-I/MUC5AC-deficient cells (human LUAD) exhibited reduced lung tumor incidence, angiogenesis, and liver metastases. Mechanistically, ST6GalNAc-I/MUC5AC regulates VCAN-V1, a key factor in tumor matrix remodeling during angiogenesis and metastasis. These findings demonstrate that ST6GalNAc-I-mediated sialylation of NECTIN2/MUC5AC is critical for immune evasion and tumor angiogenesis. Targeting this pathway may prevent LUAD development and/or metastasis.
