    腫瘍微小環境へのエフェクターT細胞の浸潤を排除するメカニズムの解明を試みた。硫酸基転移酵素SULT2B1bによって生成される癌由来のコレステロール硫酸(CS)がRac活性化因子DOCK2を阻害し、エフェクターT細胞の腫瘍浸潤を阻害することが明らかになった。臨床サンプルを用いて、CSが大腸癌などの特定の種類のヒト癌で豊富に産生されていることを見出した。機能的には、CSを産生する癌細胞は、癌特異的T細胞移植や免疫チェックポイント阻害に対して抵抗性を示した。SULT2B1bはオキシステロールを硫酸化し、その腫瘍促進活性を不活性化することが知られているが、SULT2B1bを発現する癌ではオキシステロール産生を媒介するコレステロール水酸化酵素の発現量が低かった。したがって、SULT2B1bの阻害は、オキシステロール非産生癌の腫瘍免疫回避を妨害する治療戦略となる可能性があった。以上より、新たな腫瘍の免疫回避のメカニズムを明らかになり、効果的な免疫療法の開発に新たな知見が得られた。

  • Targeted inhibition of EPAS1–driven IL-31 production by a small-molecule compound Reviewed International journal

    148 ( 2 )   633 - 638   2021.4

     More details

    Language:English   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)  

    Background
    IL-31 is a major pruritogen associated with atopic dermatitis (AD). Although a specific antibody for IL-31 receptor has been shown to alleviate pruritus in patients with AD, therapeutic approaches to inhibition of IL-31 production remain unexploited. IL-31 production by Th cells critically depends on the transcription factor EPAS1, which mediates IL31 promoter activation in collaboration with SP1.

    Objective
    We aimed at developing small-molecule inhibitors that selectively block IL-31 production by Th cells.

    Methods
    We generated the reporter cell line that inducibly expressed EPAS1 in the presence of doxycycline to mediate Il31 promoter activation, and we screened 9600 chemical compounds. The selected compounds were further examined by using Th cells from a spontaneous mouse model of AD and Th cells from patients with AD.

    Results
    We have identified 4-(2-(4-isopropylbenzylidene)hydrazineyl)benzoic acid (IPHBA) as an inhibitor of IL31 induction. Although IPHBA did not affect nonspecific T-cell proliferation, IPHBA inhibited antigen-induced IL-31 production by Th cells from both an AD mouse model and patients with AD without affecting other cytokine production and hypoxic responses. In line with this, itch responses induced by adoptive transfer of IL-31–producing Th cells were attenuated when mice were orally treated with IPHBA. Mechanistically, IPHBA inhibited the association between EPAS1 and SP1, resulting in defective recruitment of both transcription factors to the specific sites of the IL31 promoter. We also determined the structure-activity relationship of IPHBA by synthesizing and analyzing 201 analogous compounds.

    Conclusion
    IPHBA could be a potential drug leading to inhibition of EPAS1-driven IL-31 production.

  • A conserved PI(4,5)P2–binding domain is critical for immune regulatory function of DOCK8 Reviewed International journal

     More details

    Language:Others   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)  

    DOCK8 is a Cdc42-specific guanine-nucleotide exchange factor that is essential for the development and functions of various subsets of leukocytes in innate and acquired immune responses. Although DOCK8 plays a critical role in the spatial control of Cdc42 activity during interstitial leukocyte migration, the mechanism remains unclear. We show that the DOCK homology region (DHR)-1 domain of DOCK8 binds specifically to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) and is required for its recruitment to the plasma membrane. Structural and biochemical analyses reveal that DOCK8 DHR-1 domain consists of a C2 domain-like core with loops creating the upper surface pocket, where three basic residues are located for stereospecific recognition of phosphoinositides. Substitution of the two basic residues, K576 and R581, with alanine abolished PI(4,5)P2 binding in vitro, ablated the ability of DOCK8 to activate Cdc42 and support leukocyte migration in three-dimensional collagen gels. Dendritic cells carrying the mutation exhibited defective interstitial migration in vivo. Thus, our study uncovers a critical role of DOCK8 in coupling PI(4,5)P2 signaling with Cdc42 activation for immune regulation.
