    Abstract: The suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family is a group of structurally related proteins characterized by a central SH2 domain that targets the SOCS proteins to specific molecules within the JAK-STAT pathway, and a SOCS-box domain that promotes degradation of the cytokine-receptor complex. SOCS-1 is induced by cellular activation and serves as a negative feedback mechanism for a range of cytokines. It has been described that silencing SOCS-1 in dendritic cells (DC) enhances antigen presentation, T cell priming, and anti-tumor immunity. Therefore, inhibition of SOCS-1 could profoundly augment the potency of the L. monocytogenes (Lm) based cancer vaccines that we are testing in clinical studies. We questioned the role of SOCS-1 in dendritic cells in vivo during intracellular infection, a scenario where antigen-specific T cells are required for microbial clearance. To test this we characterized the infection and immune response to Lm in CD11c-Cre × SOCS1fl/fl mice that have a SOCS1 deficiency in DC. DC lacking SOCS1 showed increased maturation in vivo at baseline, but showed equivalent responses to vaccination with DC-targeted antigens combined with α-CD40. We found that Lm can be recovered from spleens and livers from mice with SOCS1-deficient DC at similar levels to that of the wild type animals. However, mice with SOCS1-deficient DC showed a dramatic defect in the specific-CD8+ T cell response while the specific-CD4+ T cells response was not affected. The lack of CD8+ T cells response correlated with low levels of IFN-γ and MCP-1 in serum during the first days of infection and decreased NK maturation. Our results demonstrate that SOCS1 expression in DC is critical to generate a strong CD8 T cell response to Lm.

    Abstract: The implantation of cancer cell lines into immunocompetent mice acts as a vaccination event, resulting in T cell immunity that impacts both tumor progression and the response to subsequent therapy. We have previously shown that blocking immunity at tumor implantation using anti-CD40L antibodies blocks development of an intratumoral antigen-specific CD8 T cell population with tissue resident memory (Trm) phenotypes, and also limits responsiveness to radiation therapy and immunotherapy combinations. Using pancreatic tumors derived from Pdx1-Cre and Pdx1-Cre /R26LSL-LSIY mice crossed with KrasLSL-G12D/+Tp53LSL-R172H/+ mice, we explored the role of CD4 T cells in providing CD40-CD40L help to generate Trm and conventional T central memory CD8 T cells (Tcm) cells in the tumor and systemically. Using depleting antibodies, we identified that Trm cells in the tumor could form independently of CD4 T cells but were lost following CD40L blockade. By contrast, systemically circulating Tcm cells that could re-expand after antigen-specific challenge were dependent on both CD4 T cells and CD40-CD40L interactions. Notably, concomitant immunity generated by tumor implantation that can prevent tumor growth on the opposite flank could also occur independently of CD4 T cells, but was lost on CD40L blockade. Systemic vaccination with Listeria monocytogenes expressing SIY efficiently induced the formation of SIY-specific Tcm cells but did not impact tumor implantation. These data suggest that tumor implantation generates Trm cells independently of CD4 T cells, and that these cells, not Tcm cells, sustain concomitant immunity. These data may impact immune therapies designed to control metastatic seeding in patients. Supported by grants from NIH (R01CA182311,  R01CA244142, R01CA208644).

    Abstract: T cells are continuously moving through tissues and recirculating back into the peripheral blood via lymph nodes. In cancer, tumor-specific T cells are enriched in the tumor environment and their presence is associated with improved outcome in patients and in preclinical models. T cells are known to contribute to tumor control following radiotherapy despite evidence indicating that radiation can be directly cytotoxic to lymphocytes. The impact of radiation therapy on recirculation of T cells through the tumor to the tumor draining lymph node (TDLN) and their trafficking to distant sites is unclear. By photoconverting tumor infiltrating cells using focal UV in Kaede mice we can use fluorescence tagging to directly identify T cells in the TDLN that originated in the tumor. We demonstrate that radiation therapy significantly decreases CD8 T cell trafficking from the tumor to the TDLN. Using single cell RNASeq and flow cytometry, we demonstrate that radiation therapy is locally cytotoxic to proliferating effector CD8 T cells within the tumor environment. This results in the loss of this effector population in the TDLN following treatment. Using flow cytometry and direct blockade of T cell entry into the LN, we characterize the CD8 T cells in the TDLN that proliferate following radiation therapy. Our data demonstrate that radiation therapy is locally cytotoxic and restricts CD8 T cell recirculation to the TDLN. Since tumor control following radiation therapy is partially dependent on CD8 T cell responses, these data force us to re-evaluate both the type and location of T cell populations that contribute to tumor control following radiation therapy.

    Abstract: Type I IFN signaling mediated by STING pathway is important for the induction of radiation-stimulated adaptive immune responses in responsive tumors. Macrophages recruited to tumors following radiotherapy (RT) can influence the response to RT. Reprogramming immunosuppressive M2-like macrophages in tumors to exhibit a more activated M1-like phenotype can help improve response to therapies. Here, we hypothesize that a 3D co-culture model of cancer cells and macrophages will be more contextually relevant to the events occurring in tumors and can be used to study the crosstalk that occurs between these cells in vivo. We initially optimized seeding densities of murine MC38 colorectal carcinoma cells to develop spheroids of consistent size. Using GFP+ macrophages and Hoechst stained MC38, we imaged the development and localization of these cells during spheroid formation. Next, co-culture spheroids were exposed to 12 Gy radiation on day 1. Viability and phenotype of macrophages in spheroid co-cultures was assessed on day 4 using flow cytometry by staining for CD80, CD86, MHC Class II, CD69 and CD206 expression. STING ligand, cyclic di-AMP (CDA) treated spheroid co-cultures were used as positive controls. CDA treatment significantly increased CD80/86 expression in 3D co-cultures. Treatment with 12 Gy radiation showed similar effect. Interestingly, macrophages derived from MyD88 Lyz2Cre, MyD88 fl/fland STING knockout mice also showed a significant increase in CD80/86 and CD40, suggesting that macrophage activation was independent of MyD88 or STING signaling. Ongoing studies aim to explore the pathways activated on irradiation in these cells and further cross-validate with the macrophage phenotypes observed in vivo in response to RT.
