Abstract
Understanding how intratumoral immune populations coordinate antitumor responses after therapy can guide treatment prioritization. We systematically analyzed an established immunotherapy, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), by assessing 348,905 single-cell transcriptomes from 74 longitudinal bone marrow samples of 25 patients with relapsed leukemia; a subset was evaluated by both protein- and transcriptome-based spatial analysis. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) DLI responders, we identified clonally expanded ZNF683+ CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes with in vitro specificity for patient-matched AML. These cells originated primarily from the DLI product and appeared to coordinate antitumor immune responses through interaction with diverse immune cell types within the marrow microenvironment. Nonresponders lacked this cross-talk and had cytotoxic T lymphocytes with elevated TIGIT expression. Our study identifies recipient bone marrow microenvironment differences as a determinant of an effective antileukemia response and opens opportunities to modulate cellular therapy.
期刊介绍:
Science Immunology is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research articles in the field of immunology. The journal encourages the submission of research findings from all areas of immunology, including studies on innate and adaptive immunity, immune cell development and differentiation, immunogenomics, systems immunology, structural immunology, antigen presentation, immunometabolism, and mucosal immunology. Additionally, the journal covers research on immune contributions to health and disease, such as host defense, inflammation, cancer immunology, autoimmunity, allergy, transplantation, and immunodeficiency. Science Immunology maintains the same high-quality standard as other journals in the Science family and aims to facilitate understanding of the immune system by showcasing innovative advances in immunology research from all organisms and model systems, including humans.
