摘 要:Overcoming local immunosuppression is critical for immunotherapy to produce robust anti-tumor ***-derived suppressor cells(MDSCS)are key regulators of immunosuppressive networks and promote tumor ***,it remains unclear whether and how tumor-infltrating MDSCS are shaped in response to anti-PD-1 treatment and what their impact on therapeutic efficacy is in colorectal cancer(CRC).In this study,the levels of infltrating MDSCS were significantly higher in the non-responding organoids and were selectively reduced in the responding group,with MDSCS showing increased apoptosis and attenuated functional activity after anti-PD-1 treatment.A negative correlation between T-cell activation and MDSC function was also observed in fresh human CRC *** studies revealed that autocrine IFN-α/B upregulated TRAIL expression on activated T cells to elicit MDSC apoptosis via the TRAIL-DR5 interaction and acted synergistically with TNF-α to inhibit MDSC function of suppressing the T-cell response through the JNK NMDAR-ARG-1 ***,blockade of IFNa/βand TNF-α abolished the therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD-1 treatment by preserving the frequency and suppressive activity of infltrating MDSCS in a CRC mouse *** result suggested that reprogramming MDSCS by IFN-α/βand TNF-α from activated T cells was necessary for succesful anti-PD-1 treatment and might serve as a novel strategy to improve the response and efficacy of anticancer therapy.
