To determine the overall tumor microenvironment (TME), characteristics, and transition mechanisms in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), we performed spatial transcriptomics and matched the corresponding single-cell sequencing data of PCNSL patients. We found that tumor cells may achieve a “TME remodeling pattern” through an “immune pressure-sensing model”, in which they could choose to reshape the TME into a barrier environment or a cold environment according to the immune pressure. A key FKBP5+ tumor subgroup was found to be responsible for pushing tumors into the barrier environment, which provides a possible way to evaluate the stage of PCNSL. The specific mechanism of the TME remodeling pattern and the key molecules of the immune pressure-sensing model were identified through the spatial communication analysis. Finally, we discovered the spatial and temporal distributions and variation characteristics of immune checkpoint molecules and CAR-T target molecules in immunotherapy. These data clarified the TME remodeling pattern of PCNSL, provided a reference for its immunotherapy, and provided suggestions for the TME remodeling mechanism of other cancers.

原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤肿瘤微环境重塑模式的空间单细胞分析
为了确定原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL)的整体肿瘤微环境(TME)、特征和转化机制,我们进行了空间转录组学并匹配了PCNSL患者相应的单细胞测序数据。我们发现肿瘤细胞可能通过“免疫压力感知模型”实现“TME重塑模式”,根据免疫压力选择将TME重塑为屏障环境或冷环境。发现一个关键的FKBP5 +肿瘤亚群负责将肿瘤推入屏障环境,这为评估 PCNSL 的阶段提供了一种可能的方法。通过空间通讯分析,确定了TME重塑模式的具体机制和免疫压力传感模型的关键分子。最后,我们发现了免疫治疗中免疫检查点分子和CAR-T靶分子的时空分布和变异特征。这些数据阐明了PCNSL的TME重塑模式,为其免疫治疗提供参考,并为其他癌症的TME重塑机制提供建议。
