Abstract

Osteosarcoma (OS), a malignant bone tumor with limited treatment options, exhibits low sensitivity to immune checkpoint therapy (ICT). Through genomics and transcriptomics analyses, we identify a subgroup of OS with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) deletion, which contributes to ICT resistance, leading to a "cold" tumor microenvironment. MTAP-deleted OS relies on methionine metabolism and is sensitive to methionine intervention, achieved through either dietary restriction or inhibition of methionine adenosyltransferase 2a (MAT2A), a key enzyme in methionine metabolism. We further demonstrate that methionine intervention triggers programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) transcription factor IKAROS family zinc finger 1 (IKZF1) and enhances PD-L1 expression in MTAP-deleted OS cells. Methionine intervention also activates the immune-related signaling pathways in MTAP-deleted OS cells and attracts CD8⁺ T cells, thereby enhancing the efficacy of ICT. Combining methionine intervention with ICT provides a significant survival benefit in MTAP-deleted OS murine models, suggesting a rationale for combination regimens in OS ICT.

期刊介绍： Cell Reports Medicine is an esteemed open-access journal by Cell Press that publishes groundbreaking research in translational and clinical biomedical sciences, influencing human health and medicine. Our journal ensures wide visibility and accessibility, reaching scientists and clinicians across various medical disciplines. We publish original research that spans from intriguing human biology concepts to all aspects of clinical work. We encourage submissions that introduce innovative ideas, forging new paths in clinical research and practice. We also welcome studies that provide vital information, enhancing our understanding of current standards of care in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This encompasses translational studies, clinical trials (including long-term follow-ups), genomics, biomarker discovery, and technological advancements that contribute to diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare. Additionally, studies based on vertebrate model organisms are within the scope of the journal, as long as they directly relate to human health and disease.
