描述信息 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is an aggressive and heterogeneous malignancy derived from biliary tract in liver, with poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Here, we unravel that METTL5, the 18S rRNA m6A methytransferase, promotes ICC progression via reshaping ICC tumor immune microenvironment. Biologically, liver-specific Mettl5 knockout (cKO) mice exhibited decreased ICC tumor burden compared to control mice, accompanied with increased anti-tumor IFN-γ+CD8+T cells and decreased infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) via single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) analysis. Mechanistically, METTL5-mediated 18S rRNA m6A modification regulated the mRNA translation of chemokines that recruited CD8+T cells and TAMs, respectively. In human ICC, we validated that low METTL5 expression correlated with increased tumor anti-tumoral CD8+T cells and decreased pro-tumoral TAMs. Ultimately, targeting METTL5 using lipid nanoparticle encapsulated siRNA combined with anti-PD-1 therapy significantly provoked anti-tumor immunity and mitigated ICC progression in ICC mouse model, suggesting METTL5 as a promising therapeutic target for treating ICC.
