Anti-tumour immunity controlled through mRNA m 6 A methylation and YTHDF1 in dendritic cells.
Nature 2019 Februrary
There is growing evidence that tumour neoantigens have important roles in generating spontaneous antitumour immune responses and predicting clinical responses to immunotherapies1,2 . Despite the presence of numerous neoantigens in patients, complete tumour elimination is rare, owing to failures in mounting a sufficient and lasting antitumour immune response3,4 . Here we show that durable neoantigen-specific immunity is regulated by mRNA N6 -methyadenosine (m6 A) methylation through the m6 A-binding protein YTHDF15 . In contrast to wild-type mice, Ythdf1-deficient mice show an elevated antigen-specific CD8+ T cell antitumour response. Loss of YTHDF1 in classical dendritic cells enhanced the cross-presentation of tumour antigens and the cross-priming of CD8+ T cells in vivo. Mechanistically, transcripts encoding lysosomal proteases are marked by m6 A and recognized by YTHDF1. Binding of YTHDF1 to these transcripts increases the translation of lysosomal cathepsins in dendritic cells, and inhibition of cathepsins markedly enhances cross-presentation of wild-type dendritic cells. Furthermore, the therapeutic efficacy of PD-L1 checkpoint blockade is enhanced in Ythdf1-/- mice, implicating YTHDF1 as a potential therapeutic target in anticancer immunotherapy.
