Summary |
Pharmacological inhibition of epigenetic enzymes can have therapeutic benefit against hematological malignancies. Apart from affecting tumor cell growth and proliferation, these epigenetic agents may mediate anti-tumor immunity. Here we discovered a novel immuno-regulatory mechanism through inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACs). In models of AML, leukemia cell differentiation and therapeutic benefit mediated by the HDAC inhibitor panobinostat required activation of the type I interferon (IFN) pathway. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) produced type I IFN after panobinostat treatment, through transcriptional activation of IFN genes concomitant with increased H3K27 acetylation at these loci. Depletion of pDCs abrogated panobinostat-mediated activation of type I IFN signaling in leukemia cells and impaired therapeutic efficacy, while combined treatment of panobinostat and IFN improved outcomes in mouse and human models. These discoveries offer a new therapeutic approach for AML and demonstrate that epigenetic rewiring of pDCs enhances anti-tumor immunity, opening the possibility of exploiting this population for immunotherapies. profiling by high throughput sequencing.

Overall design |
Following two days of treatment with panobinostat or vehicle, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and conventional DCs (cDCs) were sorted from leukemia-bearing mice (2 biological replicates per group; pool of 3-6 mice per sample).
