中文摘要

小细胞肺癌(SCLC)通常表现为免疫浸润稀少的“冷”肿瘤微环境。神经内分泌 SCLC 细胞还强烈抑制 MHC-I 表达,使其易受 NK 细胞介导的细胞毒性作用。在此,我们证实神经内分泌 SCLC 细胞对 NK 细胞介导的攻击敏感,然而患者样本中 SCLC 免疫微环境的定量空间分析显示,包括 NK 细胞在内的效应免疫细胞被排除在 MHC-I 低/阴性 SCLC 区域之外。为研究这一生物学现象,我们开发了微生理免疫肿瘤环境的动态单细胞 RNA 测序(DynaMITE-seq),并将研究结果与患者组织的空间转录组学整合,揭示微血管系统是限制 NK 细胞外渗/募集的主要检查点。我们证明,血管干扰素基因刺激因子(STING)信号通路的激活可恢复 NK 细胞浸润和对神经内分泌 SCLC 的杀伤,提示一种克服这一关键 SCLC 免疫屏障并启动对 DLL3 靶向 CAR-NK 细胞治疗的治疗应答的策略。

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) typically displays a "cold" tumor microenvironment with a paucity of immune infiltrate. Neuroendocrine SCLC cells also profoundly repress MHC-I expression, rendering them vulnerable to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Here, we confirm that neuroendocrine SCLC cells are sensitive to NK cell-mediated attack, yet the quantitative spatial profiling of the SCLC immune microenvironment in patient samples reveals that effector immune cells, including NK cells, are excluded from MHC-I low/neg SCLC regions. To study this biology, we develop dynamic single-cell RNA sequencing of microphysiological immune tumor environments (DynaMITE-seq) and integrate findings with spatial transcriptomics in patient tissue, unveiling the microvasculature as a major checkpoint restricting NK cell extravasation/recruitment. We demonstrate that the activation of vascular Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) signaling restores NK cell infiltration and killing of neuroendocrine SCLC, suggesting a strategy to overcome this key SCLC immunologic barrier and prime therapeutic response to DLL3-targeted CAR-NK cell therapy.
