EGFR TKIs suppress MUC1 glycosylation through the PI3K/AKT/SP1/C1GALT1 pathway to enhance TnMUC1 CAR-T efficacy in EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the standard first-line treatment for EGFR-mutant cancer (non-small cell lung cancer [NSCLC]), achieving an objective response rate (ORR) of approximately 60%-70%. However, optimizing their therapeutic efficacy remains a challenge. NSCLC cells express the tumor-specific hypoglycosylated Thomsen-nouvelle (Tn) mucin 1 (MUC1) antigen, making them suitable targets for TnMUC1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy. This study shows that EGFR TKIs enhance the efficacy of TnMUC1 CAR-T cell therapy in EGFR-mutant NSCLC, both in vitro and in vivo. EGFR TKIs upregulate TnMUC1 by reducing MUC1 glycosylation, thereby improving TnMUC1 CAR-T cell recognition and cytotoxicity. Specifically, EGFR TKIs modulate TnMUC1-related glycosyltransferases, with core1-beta1,3-galactosyltransferase 1 (C1GALT1) identified as a key enzyme downregulated by EGFR TKIs, suggesting C1GALT1 as a potential therapeutic target.

期刊介绍:
Cell Reports Medicine is an esteemed open-access journal by Cell Press that publishes groundbreaking research in translational and clinical biomedical sciences, influencing human health and medicine.
Our journal ensures wide visibility and accessibility, reaching scientists and clinicians across various medical disciplines. We publish original research that spans from intriguing human biology concepts to all aspects of clinical work. We encourage submissions that introduce innovative ideas, forging new paths in clinical research and practice. We also welcome studies that provide vital information, enhancing our understanding of current standards of care in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This encompasses translational studies, clinical trials (including long-term follow-ups), genomics, biomarker discovery, and technological advancements that contribute to diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare. Additionally, studies based on vertebrate model organisms are within the scope of the journal, as long as they directly relate to human health and disease.
