Radiotherapy is under investigation for its ability to enhance responses to immunotherapy. However, the mechanisms by which radiation induces anti-tumour T cells remain unclear. We show that the DNA exonuclease Trex1 is induced by radiation doses above 12-18 Gy in different cancer cells, and attenuates their immunogenicity by degrading DNA that accumulates in the cytosol upon radiation. Cytosolic DNA stimulates secretion of interferon-β by cancer cells following activation of the DNA sensor cGAS and its downstream effector STING. Repeated irradiation at doses that do not induce Trex1 amplifies interferon-β production, resulting in recruitment and activation of Batf3-dependent dendritic cells. This effect is essential for priming of CD8+ T cells that mediate systemic tumour rejection (abscopal effect) in the context of immune checkpoint blockade. Thus, Trex1 is an upstream regulator of radiation-driven anti-tumour immunity. Trex1 induction may guide the selection of radiation dose and fractionation in patients treated with immunotherapy.

DNA核酸外切酶Trex1调节放疗诱导的肿瘤免疫原性。

放射疗法具有增强对免疫疗法反应的能力,目前正在研究中。然而,辐射诱导抗肿瘤T细胞的机制仍不清楚。我们表明,DNA核酸外切酶Trex1是由不同癌细胞中高于12-18 Gy的辐射剂量诱导的,并且通过降解辐射时累积在细胞质中的DNA来减弱其免疫原性。在激活DNA传感器cGAS及其下游效应器STING之后,胞质DNA刺激癌细胞分泌干扰素-β。以不诱导Trex1的剂量重复照射会放大干扰素-β的产生,从而导致Batf3依赖性树突状细胞的募集和激活。此效应对于启动CD8 +是必不可少的在免疫检查点封锁的情况下介导全身性肿瘤排斥(绝对作用)的T细胞。因此,Trex1是辐射驱动的抗肿瘤免疫力的上游调节剂。Trex1诱导可能指导接受免疫治疗的患者的辐射剂量和分级选择。
