    Abstract: Microorganisms are commonly detected in tumor tissues, and the species and abundance have been reported to affect cancer initiation, progression, and therapy. Host genetics have been associated with gut microbial abundances, while the relationships between genetic variants and the cancer microbiome still require systematic interrogation. Therefore, identification of cancer microbiome quantitative trait loci (mbQTL) across cancer types might elucidate the contributions of genetic variants to tumor development. Using genotype data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and microbial abundance levels from Kraken-derived data, we developed a computational pipeline to identify mbQTLs in 32 cancer types. This study systematically identified 38,660 mbQTLs across cancers, ranging 50 in endometrial carcinoma to 3,133 in thyroid carcinoma. Furthermore, a strong enrichment of mbQTLs was observed among transcription factor binding sites and chromatin regulatory elements, such as H3K27ac. Notably, mbQTLs were significantly enriched in cancer genome-wide association studies (GWAS) loci and explained an average of 2% for cancer heritability, indicating that mbQTLs could provide additional insights into cancer etiology. Correspondingly, 24,443 mbQTLs overlapping with GWAS linkage disequilibrium regions were identified. Survival analyses identified 318 mbQTLs associated with patient overall survival. Moreover, we uncovered 135,248 microbiome–immune infiltration associations and 166,603 microbiome–drug response associations that might provide clues for microbiome-based biomarkers. Finally, a user-friendly database, Cancer-mbQTL (http://canmbqtl.whu.edu.cn/#/), was constructed for users to browse, search, and download data of interest. This study provides a valuable resource for investigating the roles of genetics and microorganisms in human cancer. Significance: This study provides insights into the host–microbiome interactions for multiple cancer types, which could help the research community understand the effects of inherited variants in tumorigenesis and development.

    Abstract: Purpose: Despite favorable responses of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered T-cell therapy in patients with hematologic malignancies, the outcome has been far from satisfactory in the treatment of solid tumors, partially owing to the development of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. To overcome this limitation, we engineered CAR T cells secreting checkpoint inhibitors (CPI) targeting PD-1 (CAR.αPD1-T) and evaluated their efficacy in a human lung carcinoma xenograft mouse model. Experimental Design: To evaluate the effector function and expansion capacity of CAR.αPD1-T cells in vitro, we measured the production of IFNγ and T-cell proliferation following antigen-specific stimulation. Furthermore, the antitumor efficacy of CAR.αPD1-T cells, CAR T cells, and CAR T cells combined with anti–PD-1 antibody was determined using a xenograft mouse model. Finally, the underlying mechanism was investigated by analyzing the expansion and functional capacity of TILs. Results: Human anti–PD-1 CPIs secreted by CAR.αPD1-T cells efficiently bound to PD-1 and reversed the inhibitory effect of PD-1/PD-L1 interaction on T-cell function. PD-1 blockade by continuously secreted anti–PD-1 attenuated the inhibitory T-cell signaling and enhanced T-cell expansion and effector function both in vitro and in vivo. In the xenograft mouse model, we demonstrated that the secretion of anti–PD-1 enhanced the antitumor activity of CAR T cells and prolonged overall survival. Conclusions: With constitutive anti–PD-1 secretion, CAR.αPD1-T cells are more functional and expandable, and more efficient at tumor eradication than parental CAR T cells. Collectively, our study presents an important and novel strategy that enables CAR T cells to achieve better antitumor immunity, especially in the treatment of solid tumors.

    Abstract: Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is emerging as a major mechanism of post-transcriptional regulation. APA can impact the development and progression of cancer, suggesting that the genetic determinants of APA might play an important role in regulating cancer risk. Here, we depicted a pan-cancer atlas of human APA quantitative trait loci (apaQTLs), containing approximately 0.7 million apaQTLs across 32 cancer types. Systematic multi-omics analyses indicated that cancer apaQTLs could contribute to APA regulation by altering poly(A) motifs, RNA binding proteins (RBP), and chromatin regulatory elements and were preferentially enriched in GWAS­identified cancer susceptibility loci. Moreover, apaQTL-related genes (aGenes) were broadly related to cancer signaling pathways, high mutational burden, immune infiltration, and drug response, implicating their potential as therapeutic targets. Furthermore, apaQTLs were mapped in Chinese colorectal cancer (CRC) tumor tissues and then screened for functional apaQTLs associated with CRC risk in 17,789 cases and 19,951 controls using GWAS-ChIP data, with independent validation in a large-scale population consisting of 6,024 cases and 10,022 controls. A multi-ancestry-associated apaQTL variant rs1020670 with a C & gt;G change in DNM1L was identified, and the G allele contributed to an increased risk of CRC. Mechanistically, the risk variant promoted aberrant APA and facilitated higher usage of DNM1L proximal poly(A) sites mediated by the RBP CSTF2T, which led to higher expression of DNM1L with a short 3'UTR. This stabilized DNM1L to upregulate its expression, provoking CRC cell proliferation. Collectively, these findings generate a resource for understanding APA regulation and the genetic basis of human cancers, providing insights into cancer etiology.
