Interferon Gamma Induces Higher Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Leading to Tumor-Killing Activity in Microsatellite Stable Colorectal Cancer.
Many patients with colorectal cancer do not respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, highlighting the urgent need to understand tumor resistance mechanisms. Recently, the link between the IFNγ signaling pathway integrity and ICB resistance in the colorectal cancer tumor microenvironment has been revealed. The immunosuppressive microenvironment poses a significant challenge to antitumor immunity in colorectal cancer development. Tumor-associated neutrophils found in tumor tissues exhibit an immunosuppressive phenotype and are associated with colorectal cancer patient prognosis. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NET), DNA meshes containing cytotoxic enzymes released into the extracellular space, may be promising therapeutic targets in cancer. This study showed increased NETs in tumor tissues and peripheral neutrophils of high levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-H) patients with colorectal cancer compared with microsatellite stable (MSS) patients with colorectal cancer. IFNγ response genes were enriched in MSI-H patients with colorectal cancer compared with patients with MSS colorectal cancer. Co-culturing neutrophils with MSI-H colorectal cancer cell lines induced more NET formation and higher cellular apoptosis than MSS colorectal cancer cell lines. IFNγ treatment induced more NET formation and apoptosis in MSS colorectal cancer cell lines. Using subcutaneous or orthotopic CT-26 (MSS) tumor-bearing mice models, IFNγ reduced tumor size and enhanced PD-1 antibody-induced tumor-killing activity, accompanied by upregulated NETs and cellular apoptosis. These findings suggest that IFNγ could be a therapeutic strategy for MSS colorectal cancer.
