The reinvigoration of anti-tumor T cells in response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy is well established. Whether and how ICB therapy manipulates antibody-mediated immune response in cancer environments, however, remains elusive. Using tandem mass spectrometric analysis of modification of immunoglobulin G (IgG) from hepatoma tissues, we identified a role of ICB therapy in catalyzing IgG sialylation in the Fc region. Effector T cells triggered sialylation of IgG via an interferon (IFN)-γ-ST6Gal-I-dependent pathway. DC-SIGN macrophages represented the main target cells of sialylated IgG. Upon interacting with sialylated IgG, DC-SIGN stimulated Raf-1-elicited elevation of ATF3, which inactivated cGAS-STING pathway and eliminated subsequent type-I-IFN-triggered antitumorigenic immunity. Although enhanced IgG sialylation in tumors predicted improved therapeutic outcomes for patients receiving ICB therapy, impeding IgG sialylation augmented antitumorigenic T cell immunity after ICB therapy. Thus, targeting antibody-based negative feedback action of ICB therapy has potential for improving efficacy of cancer immunotherapies.
免疫检查点阻断(ICB)疗法可使抗肿瘤T细胞恢复活力,这一点已得到充分证实。然而,ICB疗法在癌症环境中是否以及如何操纵抗体介导的免疫反应,仍不清楚。通过对肝癌组织中免疫球蛋白G(IgG)修饰的串联质谱分析,我们确定了ICB疗法在催化Fc区域IgG唾液酸化中的作用。效应T细胞通过干扰素(IFN)-γ-ST6Gal-I依赖性途径触发IgG的唾液酸化。DC-SIGN巨噬细胞是唾液酸化IgG的主要靶细胞。与唾液酸化IgG相互作用后,DC-SIGN刺激Raf-1引发ATF3升高,从而使cGAS-STING途径失活,并消除随后由I型干扰素触发的抗肿瘤免疫。尽管肿瘤中IgG唾液酸化增强预示着接受ICB疗法的患者治疗效果改善,但在ICB疗法后阻碍IgG唾液酸化可增强抗肿瘤T细胞免疫。因此,针对ICB疗法基于抗体的负反馈作用具有提高癌症免疫疗法疗效的潜力。
