Summary |
Cross-presentation by type 1 DCs (cDC1) is critical to induce and sustain antitumoral CD8 T cell responses to model antigens, in various tumor settings. However, the impact of cross-presenting cDC1 and the potential of DC-based therapies in tumors carrying varied levels of bona-fide neoantigens (neoAgs) remains unclear. We develop a hypermutated model of non-small cell lung cancer, encoding genuine MHC-I neoepitopes to study neoAgs-specific CD8 T cell responses in spontaneous settings and upon Flt3L+CD40 (DC-therapy). We find that cDC1 are required to generate broad CD8 responses against a range of diverse neoAgs. DC-therapy promotes immunogenicity of weaker neoAgs and strongly inhibits the growth of high tumor-mutational burden (TMB) tumors. In contrast, low TMB tumors respond poorly to DC-therapy, generating mild CD8 T cell responses that are not sufficient to block progression. scRNA transcriptional analysis, immune profiling and functional assays unveil the changes induced by DC-therapy in lung tissues, which comprise accumulation of cDC1 with increased immunostimulatory properties and decreased exhaustion in effector CD8 T cells. We conclude that boosting cDC1 activity is critical to broaden the diversity of anti-tumoral CD8 T cell responses and to leverage neoAgs content for therapeutic advantage.

Overall design |
Briefly, KP cells were transiently transfected with pZac2.1-U6sgRNA-CMV-ZsGreen and (pSpCas9(BB)(PX458) using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen), following the manufacturer´s instructions. ZsGreen+ cells were cell sorted. Mlh1 knockout clones were generated by Crispr Cas9 based technology using 2 single guide RNAs (sgRNA) targeting Mlh1 exon 5 as described previuosly. and single clones were tested for Mlh1 expression. KPctrl cells derive from cells transiently transfected with only (pSpCas9(BB)(PX458). Then, RNA extraction was performed in triplicates using RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen).
