Sphingosine kinase 1 counteracts chemosensitivity and immune evasion in diffuse large B cell lymphoma cells via the PI3K/AKT/PD-L1 axis
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a highly aggressive neoplasm of lymphatic system that represent 38–58 % of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Chemoresistance and immune escape constitute the major obstacles to the treatment of patients. Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is involved in multiple processes of cancer. Up to now, little research focuses on its function in DLBCL. In the current research, GEPIA and human Protein Atlas databases confirmed high expression of SphK1 in DLBCL tissues. Analogously, increased expression of SphK1 were determined in DLBCL tissues and cells. Intriguingly, knockdown of SphK1 suppressed DLBCL cell viability and increased chemosensitivity to doxorubicin by decreasing cell viability and increasing caspase-3 activity. Reversely, SphK1 elevation facilitated cancer cell resistance to doxorubicin. Furthermore, loss of SphK1 increased the productions of inflammatory cytokine IFN-γ and TNF-α, but reduced IL-10 levels in co-culture model of CD8 + T cells and DLBCL cells. Importantly, SphK1 knockdown enhanced T cell cytotoxicity to DLBCL cells, while its elevation restrained the ability of T cells to kill cancer cells. Concomitantly, targeting SphK1 enhanced the percentage of CD8 + T cells and attenuated co-culture-evoked CD8 + T cell apoptosis, indicating the important roles in T cell escape. Mechanically, SphK1 overexpression enhanced and its knockdown suppressed activation of the PI3K/AKT/PD-L1 pathway. After blockage of this pathway by its antagonist, the beneficial effects of SpHK1 on chemoresistance and immune escape were abrogated. In vivo, targeting SphK1 inhibited tumor growth and enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of doxorubicin in DLBCL xenograft tumor, concomitant with the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT/PD-L1 signaling. Collectively, SphK1 knockdown counteracted chemoresistance and immune escape from T cell killing by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/PD-L1 pathway. Therefore, targeting SphK1 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for overcoming chemoresistance and immune escape in DLBCL.
期刊介绍:
International Immunopharmacology is the primary vehicle for the publication of original research papers pertinent to the overlapping areas of immunology, pharmacology, cytokine biology, immunotherapy, immunopathology and immunotoxicology. Review articles that encompass these subjects are also welcome.
The subject material appropriate for submission includes:
• Clinical studies employing immunotherapy of any type including the use of: bacterial and chemical agents; thymic hormones, interferon, lymphokines, etc., in transplantation and diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiency, chronic infection and allergic, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.
• Studies on the mechanisms of action of these agents for specific parameters of immune competence as well as the overall clinical state.
• Pre-clinical animal studies and in vitro studies on mechanisms of action with immunopotentiators, immunomodulators, immunoadjuvants and other pharmacological agents active on cells participating in immune or allergic responses.
• Pharmacological compounds, microbial products and toxicological agents that affect the lymphoid system, and their mechanisms of action.
• Agents that activate genes or modify transcription and translation within the immune response.
• Substances activated, generated, or released through immunologic or related pathways that are pharmacologically active.
• Production, function and regulation of cytokines and their receptors.
• Classical pharmacological studies on the effects of chemokines and bioactive factors released during immunological reactions.
