BACKGROUND
In addition to minimally invasive destruction of tumors, cryo-ablation of tumors to some extent modulated anti-tumor immunity. Cryo-ablated tumors in glioma mice models induced anti-tumor cellular immunologic response which increases the percentage of CD3(+) and CD4(+)T cells in blood as well as natural killer cells. As a crucial role in triggering anti-tumor immunity, dendritic cells (DCs) were educated by tumors to adopt a tolerance phenotype which helps the tumor escape from immune monitoring. This study aims to study whether cryo-ablation could influence the tolerogenic DCs, and influence anti-tumor immunity in tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs).
METHODS
Using the GL261 subcutaneous glioma mouse model, we created a tumor bearing group, cryo-ablation group, and surgery group. We analyzed alteration in phenotype and function of tolerogenic DCs, and evaluated the factors of anti-tumor immunity inhibition.
RESULTS
DCs in TDLNs in GL261 subcutaneous glioma mouse model expressed tolerogenic phenotype. In contrast to surgery, cryo-ablation improved the quantity and quality of these tolerogenic DCs. Moreover, the DCs decreased the expression of intracellular interleukin-10 (IL-10) and extra-cellular IL-10. In vitro, DCs from the cryo-ablation group recovered their specific function and induced potent anti-tumor immunity through triggering T cells. In vivo, cryo-ablation showed weak anti-tumor immunity, only inhibiting the growth of rechallenged tumors. But many IL-10-low DCs, rather than IL-10-high DCs, infiltrated the tumors. More importantly, Tregs inhibited the performance of these DCs; and depletion of Tregs greatly improved anti-tumor immunity in vivo.
CONCLUSION
Cryo-ablation could recover function of tumor induced tolerogenic DCs in vitro; and depletion of Tregs could improve this anti-tumor effect in vivo. The Tregs/CD4(+)T and Tregs/CD25(+)T cells in TDLNs inhibit DCs' activity and function.
背景
除了对肿瘤进行微创破坏外，肿瘤冷冻消融在一定程度上还能调节抗肿瘤免疫。胶质瘤小鼠模型中经冷冻消融的肿瘤可诱导抗肿瘤细胞免疫反应，增加血液中CD3(+)和CD4(+)T细胞以及自然杀伤细胞的百分比。作为触发抗肿瘤免疫的关键角色，树突状细胞（DCs）被肿瘤诱导形成耐受表型，这有助于肿瘤逃避免疫监视。本研究旨在探讨冷冻消融是否会影响致耐受性DCs，并影响肿瘤引流淋巴结（TDLNs）中的抗肿瘤免疫。
方法
使用GL261皮下胶质瘤小鼠模型，我们创建了荷瘤组、冷冻消融组和手术组。我们分析了致耐受性DCs的表型和功能变化，并评估了抗肿瘤免疫抑制因素。
结果
GL261皮下胶质瘤小鼠模型的TDLNs中的DCs表达致耐受性表型。与手术相比，冷冻消融改善了这些致耐受性DCs的数量和质量。此外，DCs降低了细胞内白细胞介素-10（IL-10）和细胞外IL-10的表达。在体外，冷冻消融组的DCs恢复了其特定功能，并通过触发T细胞诱导了强大的抗肿瘤免疫。在体内，冷冻消融显示出较弱的抗肿瘤免疫，仅抑制再次接种肿瘤的生长。但是，许多IL-10低的DCs而非IL-10高的DCs浸润肿瘤。更重要的是，调节性T细胞（Tregs）抑制了这些DCs的功能；Tregs的清除在体内大大提高了抗肿瘤免疫。
结论
冷冻消融可在体外恢复肿瘤诱导的致耐受性DCs的功能；Tregs的清除可在体内改善这种抗肿瘤作用。TDLNs中的Tregs/CD4(+)T和Tregs/CD25(+)T细胞抑制DCs的活性和功能。
