The impact of breast radiotherapy on the tumor genome and immune ecosystem.
Radiotherapy is a pillar of breast cancer treatment; however, it remains unclear how radiotherapy modulates the tumor microenvironment. We investigated this question in a cohort of 20 patients with estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) breast tumors who received neoadjuvant radiotherapy. Tumor biopsies were collected before and 7 days postradiation. Single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) and scRNA-seq were conducted on 8 and 11 patients, respectively, at these two time points. The scRNA data showed increased infiltration of naive-like CD4 T cells and an early, activated CD8 T cell population following radiotherapy. Radiotherapy also eliminated existing cytotoxic T cells and resulted in myeloid cell increases. In tumor cells, the scDNA-seq data showed a high genomic selection of subclones in half of the patients with high ER expression, while the remaining number had low genomic selection and an interferon response. Collectively, these data provide insight into the impact of radiotherapy in ER+ breast cancer patients.
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.
