中文摘要
晚期宫颈癌(CC)患者迫切需要新的治疗策略。本文展示了一种新型联合免疫疗法的协同抗CC效应,该疗法采用过继转移的自体Vγ9Vδ2 T细胞和αβ T细胞。研究揭示了循环和肿瘤浸润性Vγ9Vδ2 T细胞在抗CC免疫中的关键作用。重要的是,自体Vγ9Vδ2 T细胞不仅通过直接杀伤肿瘤,还通过抗原呈递促进同基因αβ T细胞的活化和杀瘤活性,从而与αβ T细胞表现出协同抗CC效应,而常规化疗可进一步增强这一效应。此外,Vγ9Vδ2 T细胞可通过竞争性结合BTN3A1恢复αβ T细胞的杀瘤功能,BTN3A1是CC细胞上的一种TCR-Vγ9Vδ2配体,可被活化αβ T细胞来源的IFN-γ上调。这些发现揭示了自体Vγ9Vδ2 T细胞和αβ T细胞在CC免疫治疗中的关键协同效应,并阐明了其潜在机制。

New treatment strategies are urgently needed for patients with advanced cervical cancer (CC).
Here, a synergistic anti-CC effect of a novel combinatorial immunotherapy with adoptively transferred autologous Vγ9Vδ2 T cells and αβ T cells is shown. The pivotal role of both circulating and tumor-infiltrating Vγ9Vδ2 T cells in anti-CC immunity is uncovered.
Importantly, autologous Vγ9Vδ2 T cells show a synergistic anti-CC effect with αβ T cells not only through killing tumor directly, but also by promoting the activation and tumoricidal activity of syngeneic αβ T cells through antigen presentation, which can be further boosted by conventional chemotherapy.
Moreover, Vγ9Vδ2 T cells can restore the tumoricidal function of αβ T cell through competitively binding to BTN3A1, a TCR-Vγ9Vδ2 ligand on CC cells upregulated by IFN-γ derived from activated αβ T cell.
These findings uncover a critical synergistic effect of autologous Vγ9Vδ2 T cells and αβ T cells in immunotherapy of CC and reveal the underlying mechanisms.
