Description |
Besides the well-established synthetic lethality, PARP inhibition can also trigger immune responses that contribute to tumor suppression. Yet the pharmacological effect remains incompletely understood. Using TCR-sequencing and histological analyses of mouse ID8 tumors and clinical specimens from a prospective study (NCT04507841), we found that PARP inhibitors triggered tumor immunogenic cell death (ICD), which resulted in the transition into a "hot" tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and enhanced tumor-targeting immune responses. The ICD induced by PARP inhibitors has characteristics of pyroptosis such as classic morphological changes and GSDMD/E cleavage. This GSDMD/E cleavage was closely associated with the increased caspase 8 activity that was located downstream of the TNF signaling pathway but not FAS/FASL and TRAIL. PARP inhibition-activated NF-κB contributed to the secretion of TNF-α, resulting in the activation of caspase 8 without inhibition by c-FLIP. Blocking pyroptosis with the depletion of GSDMD and GSDME facilitated tumor growth and impaired immune response in a syngeneic mouse model. Hence, our data revealed a novel mechanism by which PARP inhibitors inflame TIME and drive tumor-targeting immune response, with potential applications in developing effective combinational therapies for tumors. |
