Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The colonic epithelium requires continuous renewal by crypt resident intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and transit-amplifying (TA) cells to maintain barrier integrity, especially after inflammatory damage. The diet of high-income countries contains increasing amounts of sugar, such as sucrose. ISCs and TA cells are sensitive to dietary metabolites, but whether excess sugar affects their function directly is unknown. METHODS Here, we used a combination of 3-dimensional colonoids and a mouse model of colon damage/repair (dextran sodium sulfate colitis) to show the direct effect of sugar on the transcriptional, metabolic, and regenerative functions of crypt ISCs and TA cells. RESULTS We show that high-sugar conditions directly limit murine and human colonoid development, which is associated with a reduction in the expression of proliferative genes, adenosine triphosphate levels, and the accumulation of pyruvate. Treatment of colonoids with dichloroacetate, which forces pyruvate into the tricarboxylic acid cycle, restored their growth. In concert, dextran sodium sulfate treatment of mice fed a high-sugar diet led to massive irreparable damage that was independent of the colonic microbiota and its metabolites. Analyses on crypt cells from high-sucrose-fed mice showed a reduction in the expression of ISC genes, impeded proliferative potential, and increased glycolytic potential without a commensurate increase in aerobic respiration. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our results indicate that short-term, excess dietary sucrose can directly modulate intestinal crypt cell metabolism and inhibit ISC/TA cell regenerative proliferation. This knowledge may inform diets that better support the treatment of acute intestinal injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) causes severe pain and opioids, the mainstay of pain management, may have immunomodulatory effects. We evaluated the effect of opioids on immunotherapy efficacy in recurrent/metastatic (R/M) HNSCC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a retrospective study of 66 R/M HNSCC patients from 2015 to 2020, opioid dosage, calculated as mean morphine milligram equivalent per day, was assessed on the day of anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatment and most recent prior visit. Intratumoral T cells were evaluated by single cell RNAseq and immunohistochemistry prior to treatment. Univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards and logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between opioid usage, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate. RESULTS Patients were 79% male, 35% oropharynx, 35% oral cavity, 40% locoregional recurrence, and 56% platinum failure. Higher opioid dosage by continuous variable was significantly associated with lower PFS (p = 0.016) and OS (p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, including platinum failure status and PD-L1, higher opioids were associated with lower OS. Opioid usage by categorical variable was associated with significantly lower intratumoral CD8+ T cells. Opioid receptor, OPRM1, expression was identified in intratumoral and circulating T cells. CONCLUSIONS In our study cohort of anti-PD-1 mAb treatment in R/M HNSCC patients, higher opioids were associated with significantly lower PFS and OS and lower CD8+ T cells in the tumor microenvironment. To our knowledge, this is the first analysis in R/M HNSCC patients and further research into the clinical and biologic effect of opioids is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cellular immunotherapies for cancer represent a means by which a patient's immune system can be augmented with high numbers of tumor-specific T cells. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy involves genetic engineering to 'redirect' peripheral T cells to tumor targets, showing remarkable potency in blood cancers. However, due to several resistance mechanisms, CAR-T cell therapies remain ineffective in solid tumors. We and others have shown the tumor microenvironment harbors a distinct metabolic landscape that produces a barrier to immune cell function. Further, altered differentiation of T cells within tumors induces defects in mitochondrial biogenesis, resulting in severe cell-intrinsic metabolic deficiencies. While we and others have shown murine T cell receptor (TCR)-transgenic cells can be improved through enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis, we sought to determine whether human CAR-T cells could be enabled through a metabolic reprogramming approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS Anti-EGFR CAR-T cells were infused in NSG mice which bore A549 tumors. The tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were analyzed for exhaustion and metabolic deficiencies. Lentiviruses carrying PPAR-gamma coactivator 1α (PGC-1α), PGC-1αS571A and NT-PGC-1α constructs were used to co-transduce T cells with anti-EGFR CAR lentiviruses. We performed metabolic analysis via flow cytometry and Seahorse analysis in vitro as well as RNA sequencing. Finally, we treated therapeutically A549-carrying NSG mice with either PGC-1α or NT-PGC-1α anti-EGFR CAR-T cells. We also analyzed the differences in the tumor-infiltrating CAR-T cells when PGC-1α is co-expressed. RESULTS Here, in this study, we show that an inhibition resistant, engineered version of PGC-1α, can metabolically reprogram human CAR-T cells. Transcriptomic profiling of PGC-1α-transduced CAR-T cells showed this approach effectively induced mitochondrial biogenesis, but also upregulated programs associated with effector functions. Treatment of immunodeficient animals bearing human solid tumors with these cells resulted in substantially improved in vivo efficacy. In contrast, a truncated version of PGC-1α, NT-PGC-1α, did not improve the in vivo outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Our data further support a role for metabolic reprogramming in immunomodulatory treatments and highlight the utility of genes like PGC-1α as attractive candidates to include in cargo along with chimeric receptors or TCRs for cell therapy of solid tumors.

Abstract
CD8+ T cells are critical for elimination of cancer cells. Factors within the tumor microenvironment (TME) can drive these cells to a hypofunctional state known as exhaustion. The most terminally exhausted T (tTex) cells are resistant to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy and might instead limit immunotherapeutic efficacy. Here we show that intratumoral CD8+ tTex cells possess transcriptional features of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells and are similarly capable of directly suppressing T cell proliferation ex vivo. tTex cell suppression requires CD39, which generates immunosuppressive adenosine. Restricted deletion of CD39 in endogenous CD8+ T cells resulted in slowed tumor progression, improved immunotherapy responsiveness and enhanced infiltration of transferred tumor-specific T cells. CD39 is induced on tTex cells by tumor hypoxia, thus mitigation of hypoxia limits tTex suppression. Together, these data suggest tTex cells are an important regulatory population in cancer and strategies to limit their generation, reprogram their immunosuppressive state or remove them from the TME might potentiate immunotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Overweight/obese (OW/OB) patients with metastatic melanoma unexpectedly have improved outcomes with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and BRAF-targeted therapies. The mechanism(s) underlying this association remain unclear, thus we assessed the integrated molecular, metabolic, and immune profile of tumors, as well as gut microbiome features, for associations with patient body mass index (BMI). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Associations between BMI [normal (NL < 25) or OW/OB (BMI ≥ 25)] and tumor or microbiome characteristics were examined in specimens from 782 patients with metastatic melanoma across 7 cohorts. DNA associations were evaluated in The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort. RNA sequencing from 4 cohorts (n = 357) was batch corrected and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) by BMI category was performed. Metabolic profiling was conducted in a subset of patients (x = 36) by LC/MS, and in flow-sorted melanoma tumor cells (x = 37) and patient-derived melanoma cell lines (x = 17) using the Seahorse XF assay. Gut microbiome features were examined in an independent cohort (n = 371). RESULTS DNA mutations and copy number variations were not associated with BMI. GSEA demonstrated that tumors from OW/OB patients were metabolically quiescent, with downregulation of oxidative phosphorylation and multiple other metabolic pathways. Direct metabolite analysis and functional metabolic profiling confirmed decreased central carbon metabolism in OW/OB metastatic melanoma tumors and patient-derived cell lines. The overall structure, diversity, and taxonomy of the fecal microbiome did not differ by BMI. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the host metabolic phenotype influences melanoma metabolism and provide insight into the improved outcomes observed in OW/OB patients with metastatic melanoma treated with ICIs and targeted therapies.

Abstract
6045 Background: There is a great need for non-invasive predictors of the tumor microenvironment and the efficacy of anti-PD-1 mAb treatment (IO) in R/M HNSCC patients. We previously showed that lower tumor hypoxia was associated with increased efficacy with IO ( Journal of Clinical Oncol. 38, no. 15_suppl (May 20, 2020) 6546) and now we evaluate the predictive value of radiomics in this same patient cohort. Methods: We studied radiomic signatures in a cohort of 36 patients with R/M HNSCC treated with IO. Treatment response was evaluated using RECIST 1.1. Patients were categorized as: Responders (R) ie CR, PR, SD and non-Responders (NR) i.e PD. As per our previous analysis (ref above) hypoxia was evaluated on archival FFPE samples via immunofluorescent imaging and defined by the ratio of percent area (% CAIX) / the mean intensity (Int) of carbonic anhydrase IX in tumor (%CAIX/Int). ImageJ software was used to determine %CAIX and Int. Feature extraction was performed on the pre-immunotherapy baseline CT scans. The lesions were segmented using 3D slicer v4.10.2 to create a volume of interest (VOI) for radiomic texture analysis (TA). A total of 400 features (10 histogram-based and 390 second-order texture features) were calculated from each extracted volume of interest (VOI). Radiomic features were obtained using a feature selection approach based on Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO). Selected features were used to build a classification model, using XGboost, for prediction of tumor response to immunotherapy. Cross-validation was performed using the Leave One Out Cross Validation (LOOCV) approach for the XGBoost method to evaluate the robustness of the estimates and calculated accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and p-value. Results: Our patient cohort had a median age of 59, 69% male, 58% smokers. 61% received IO for platinum failure, 39% frontline. Primary site included 39% OC, 22% OPC (38% HPV positive), 17% Larynx, 5% hypopharynx, and 17% other. Radiomics applied to the primary HNSCC tumor highly predicted tumor hypoxia status with a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 78%, 83%, and 81%, respectively, p = 0.0001. To predict response, we applied radiomics to both the primary HNSCC tumor and pathological lymph nodes; radiomics was also able to predict whether a patient would be a responder (N = 8) versus a non-responder (N = 28) to IO based on the pre-immunotherapy baseline CT scan. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 93%, 88%, and 92%, respectively, p = 0.02. Conclusions: Even in a small cohort, radiomics could predict response to IO and tumor hypoxia in R/M HNSCC patients. To our knowledge this is the first evaluation of this kind in this patient population. Further evaluation of radiomics as a predictor of efficacy with IO and the tumor microenvironment is warranted.

Abstract
The majority of patients with recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) (R/M) do not benefit from anti-PD-1 therapy. Hypoxia induced immunosuppression may be a barrier to immunotherapy. Therefore, we examined the metabolic effect of anti-PD-1 therapy in a murine MEER HNSCC model as well as intratumoral hypoxia in R/M patients. In order to characterize the tumor microenvironment in PD-1 resistance, a MEER cell line was created from the parental line that are completely resistant to anti-PD-1. These cell lines were then metabolically profiled using seahorse technology and injected into C57/BL6 mice. After tumor growth, mice were pulsed with pimonidazole and immunofluorescent imaging was performed to analyze hypoxia and T cell infiltration. To validate the preclinical results, we analyzed tissues from R/M patients (n=36) treated with anti-PD-1 mAb, via immunofluorescent imaging for number of CD8+ T cells (CD8), Tregs and the percent area (CAIX) and mean intensity (I) of carbonic anhydrase IX in tumor. We analyzed disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) using proportional odds and proportional hazards (Cox) regression. We found that anti-PD-1 resistant MEER has significantly higher oxidative metabolism, while there was no difference in glycolytic metabolism. Intratumoral hypoxia was significantly increased and CD8+ T cells decreased in anti-PD-1 resistant tumors compared with parental tumors in the same mouse. In R/M patients, lower tumor hypoxia by CAIX/I was significantly associated with DCR (p=0.007), PFS, and OS, and independently associated with response (p=0.028) and PFS (p=0.04) in a multivariate model including other significant immune factors. During PD-1 resistance, tumor cells developed increased oxidative metabolism leading to increased intratumoral hypoxia and a decrease in CD8+ T cells. Lower tumor hypoxia was independently associated with increased efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy in patients with R/M HNSCC. To our knowledge this is the first analysis of the effect of hypoxia in this patient population and highlights its importance not only as a predictive biomarker but also as a potential target for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Regulatory T (Treg) cells, although vital for immune homeostasis, also represent a major barrier to anti-cancer immunity, as the tumour microenvironment (TME) promotes the recruitment, differentiation and activity of these cells1,2. Tumour cells show deregulated metabolism, leading to a metabolite-depleted, hypoxic and acidic TME3, which places infiltrating effector T cells in competition with the tumour for metabolites and impairs their function4-6. At the same time, Treg cells maintain a strong suppression of effector T cells within the TME7,8. As previous studies suggested that Treg cells possess a distinct metabolic profile from effector T cells9-11, we hypothesized that the altered metabolic landscape of the TME and increased activity of intratumoral Treg cells are linked. Here we show that Treg cells display broad heterogeneity in their metabolism of glucose within normal and transformed tissues, and can engage an alternative metabolic pathway to maintain suppressive function and proliferation. Glucose uptake correlates with poorer suppressive function and long-term instability, and high-glucose conditions impair the function and stability of Treg cells in vitro. Treg cells instead upregulate pathways involved in the metabolism of the glycolytic by-product lactic acid. Treg cells withstand high-lactate conditions, and treatment with lactate prevents the destabilizing effects of high-glucose conditions, generating intermediates necessary for proliferation. Deletion of MCT1-a lactate transporter-in Treg cells reveals that lactate uptake is dispensable for the function of peripheral Treg cells but required intratumorally, resulting in slowed tumour growth and an increased response to immunotherapy. Thus, Treg cells are metabolically flexible: they can use 'alternative' metabolites in the TME to maintain their suppressive identity. Further, our results suggest that tumours avoid destruction by not only depriving effector T cells of nutrients, but also metabolically supporting regulatory populations.

Abstract
Cancer and chronic infections induce T cell exhaustion, a hypofunctional fate carrying distinct epigenetic, transcriptomic and metabolic characteristics. However, drivers of exhaustion remain poorly understood. As intratumoral exhausted T cells experience severe hypoxia, we hypothesized that metabolic stress alters their responses to other signals, specifically, persistent antigenic stimulation. In vitro, although CD8+ T cells experiencing continuous stimulation or hypoxia alone differentiated into functional effectors, the combination rapidly drove T cell dysfunction consistent with exhaustion. Continuous stimulation promoted Blimp-1-mediated repression of PGC-1α-dependent mitochondrial reprogramming, rendering cells poorly responsive to hypoxia. Loss of mitochondrial function generated intolerable levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), sufficient to promote exhausted-like states, in part through phosphatase inhibition and the consequent activity of nuclear factor of activated T cells. Reducing T cell-intrinsic ROS and lowering tumor hypoxia limited T cell exhaustion, synergizing with immunotherapy. Thus, immunologic and metabolic signaling are intrinsically linked: through mitigation of metabolic stress, T cell differentiation can be altered to promote more functional cellular fates.

Abstract
Cancer cells have deregulated metabolism that can contribute to the unique metabolic makeup of the tumor microenvironment. This can be variable between patients, and it is important to understand these differences since they potentially can affect therapy response. Here we discuss a method of processing and assaying metabolism from direct ex vivo murine and human tumor samples using seahorse extracellular flux analysis. This provides real-time profiling of oxidative versus glycolytic metabolism and can help infer the metabolic status of the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) is an inhibitory receptor expressed by CD4+ T cells and tempers their homeostatic expansion. Because CD4+ T cell proliferation is tightly coupled to bioenergetics, we investigate the role of LAG-3 in modulating naive CD4+ T cell metabolism. LAG-3 deficiency enhances the metabolic profile of naive CD4+ T cells by elevating levels of mitochondrial biogenesis. In vivo, LAG-3 blockade partially restores expansion and the metabolic phenotype of wild-type CD4+ T cells to levels of Lag3-/- CD4+ T cells, solidifying that LAG-3 controls these processes. Lag3-/- CD4+ T cells also demonstrate greater signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) activation, enabling resistance to interleukin-7 (IL-7) deprivation. These results implicate this pathway as a target of LAG-3-mediated inhibition. Additionally, enhancement of STAT5 activation, as a result of LAG-3 deficiency, contributes to greater activation potential in these cells. These results identify an additional mode of regulation elicited by LAG-3 in controlling CD4+ T cell responses.

Abstract
6546 Background: Anti-PD-1 mAbs have changed the landscape of R/M HNSCC treatment, but physical, immunologic, and metabolic barriers present in the tumor microenvironment are likely drivers of low response rates. Hypoxia is a well-established feature of the tumor microenvironment and may act as a barrier to T cell infiltration and function. We evaluated the effect of hypoxia on the efficacy of anti-PD-1 mAb treatment in R/M HNSCC patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of R/M patients treated with anti-PD-1 mAb that had consented to the UPMC Hillman tissue banking protocol (HCC 99-069). Pre-treatment archival FFPE samples were analyzed via immunofluorescent imaging for number of CD8+ T cells (CD8), Tregs, and the percent area (% CAIX) and mean intensity (Int) of carbonic anhydrase IX, a well-described marker of hypoxia. Tissue sections stained with PanCK, CAIX, CD8, Foxp3, and DAPI were imaged with an Olympus IX 83 microscope. ImageJ software and custom software plugins were used to determine %CAIX, Int, CD8, and Treg. PD-L1 by IHC was reported as a combined positive score (CPS) defining positive as CPS > 1. We compared non-responders (NR) i.e. PD to responders (R) i.e. PR or SD, and analyzed OS, PFS. All data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism software. Two-tailed unpaired t test was used when comparing 2 groups, 1-way ANOVA was used for multiple comparisons, and log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results: The 36 patients included were 69% male, median age 59, 58% smokers. 61% were platinum failure. Primary site included 39% OC, 22% OPC (38% HPV positive), 17% Larynx, 17% other, 5% hypopharynx. Low %CAIX/Int, high CD8, and high CD8/Treg were all significantly associated with R. Patients with low %CAIX/Int (12 month OS Low: 75% vs. Mid: 17% vs. High:8%, p = 0.02) and high CD8/Treg had a significant increase in OS. Only high CD8 was associated with significantly higher PFS. Low %CAIX alone showed a non-significant trend towards increased R and no difference in PFS/OS. There was no difference in CD8, CD8/Treg, PD-L1 and Treg between %CAIX/Int groups. Conclusions: To our knowledge this is the first evaluation of tumor hypoxia as a predictive biomarker in anti-PD-1 mAb treated R/M HNSCC patients. Lower hypoxia by %CAIX/Int was associated with significantly increased response and OS. While further analysis in a larger dataset is needed to confirm, the lack of significant difference in CD8, Treg, PD-L1, and CD8/Treg between %CAIX/Int groups (Low, Mid, High) suggests that hypoxia may be an independent predictive marker.

Abstract
Germinal center B cells (GCBCs) are critical for generating long-lived humoral immunity. How GCBCs meet the energetic challenge of rapid proliferation is poorly understood. Dividing lymphocytes typically rely on aerobic glycolysis over oxidative phosphorylation for energy. Here we report that GCBCs are exceptional among proliferating B and T cells as they actively oxidize fatty acids (FAs) and conduct minimal glycolysis. In vitro, GCBCs had a very low glycolytic extracellular acidification (ECAR) but consumed oxygen in response to FAs. [13C6]-glucose feeding revealed that GCBCs generate significantly less phosphorylated glucose and little lactate. Further, GCBCs did not metabolize glucose into TCA cycle intermediates. Conversely, [13C16]-palmitic acid labeling demonstrated that GCBCs generate most of their acetyl-CoA and acetylcarnitine from FAs. FA oxidation (FAO) was functionally important, as drug-mediated and genetic dampening of FAO resulted in a selective reduction GCBCs. Hence, GCBCs appear to uncouple rapid proliferation from aerobic glycolysis.

Abstract
The immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) immunotherapy has prolonged overall survival for cancer patients but the response rates are low. The resistance to ICB is likely due to compensatory upregulation of additional immune inhibitory molecules. In this study, we first systematically examined Tim-3 expression in immune cells in mouse tumors and found that Tim-3 was specifically up-regulated in a large number of Treg, conventional CD4+, CD8+ T cells, dendritic cell 1 (DC1), and macrophage 1 (M1) in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Interestingly, Tim-3+ T cells in the TME were phenotypically effector but not “exhausted” T cells because Tim-3+ PD-1+ CD8+ T cells had a higher number of mitochondria, greater levels of glycolysis, and higher tumor-specific cytolytic activities compared to Tim-3− PD-1− CD8+ T cells. The combination treatment with Tim-3 and PD-1 mAbs resulted in a synergistic antitumor activity but also increased the expression of Lag-3 and GITR in TIL, demonstrating cross-regulation between multiple checkpoint molecules. Furthermore, we found that the antitumor efficacy with triple combination of Tim-3, PD-1, and Lag3 mAbs was much greater than any two antibodies. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that simultaneous targeting of Tim-3, PD-1, and Lag-3 cooperatively increased the levels of granzyme B and tumor-specific cytolytic activities of CD8+ TIL. Our data indicate that multiple checkpoint molecules are coordinately upregulated to inhibit the function of hyperactivated T cells in the TME and requirement for the simultaneous blockade of PD-1, Tim-3 and Lag3 for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Immunotherapy can reinvigorate dormant responses to cancer, but response rates remain low. Oncolytic viruses, which replicate in cancer cells, induce tumor lysis and immune priming, but their immune consequences are unclear. We profiled the infiltrate of aggressive melanomas induced by oncolytic Vaccinia virus using RNA sequencing and found substantial remodeling of the tumor microenvironment, dominated by effector T cell influx. However, responses to oncolytic viruses were incomplete due to metabolic insufficiencies induced by the tumor microenvironment. We identified the adipokine leptin as a potent metabolic reprogramming agent that supported antitumor responses. Leptin metabolically reprogrammed T cells in vitro, and melanoma cells expressing leptin were immunologically controlled in mice. Engineering oncolytic viruses to express leptin in tumor cells induced complete responses in tumor-bearing mice and supported memory development in the tumor infiltrate. Thus, leptin can provide metabolic support to tumor immunity, and oncolytic viruses represent a platform to deliver metabolic therapy.

Abstract
Regulatory T (Treg) cells are crucial for immune homeostasis, but they also contribute to tumor immune evasion by promoting a suppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Mice with Treg cell-restricted Neuropilin-1 deficiency show tumor resistance while maintaining peripheral immune homeostasis, thereby providing a controlled system to interrogate the impact of intratumoral Treg cells on the TME. Using this and other genetic models, we showed that Treg cells shaped the transcriptional landscape across multiple tumor-infiltrating immune cell types. Treg cells suppressed CD8+ T cell secretion of interferon-γ (IFNγ), which would otherwise block the activation of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1)-mediated fatty acid synthesis in immunosuppressive (M2-like) tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Thus, Treg cells indirectly but selectively sustained M2-like TAM metabolic fitness, mitochondrial integrity, and survival. SREBP1 inhibition augmented the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade, suggesting that targeting Treg cells or their modulation of lipid metabolism in M2-like TAMs could improve cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
In myeloid dendritic cells (DC), deletion of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 2 (TORC2) results in an augmented pro-inflammatory phenotype and T cell stimulatory activity; however, the underlying mechanism has not been resolved. Here, we demonstrate that mouse bone marrow-derived TORC2-deficient myeloid DC (TORC2−/− DC) utilize an altered metabolic program, characterized by enhanced baseline glycolytic function compared to wild-type WT control (Ctrl) DC, increased dependence on glycolytic ATP production, elevated lipid content and higher viability following stimulation with LPS. In addition, TORC2−/− DC display an increased spare respiratory capacity (SRC) compared to WT Ctrl DC; this metabolic phenotype corresponds with increased mitochondrial mass and mean mitochondrial DNA copy number, and failure of TORC2−/− DC mitochondria to depolarize following LPS stimulation. Our data suggest that the enhanced metabolic activity of TORC2−/− DC may be due to compensatory TORC1 pathway activity, namely increased expression of multiple genes upstream of Akt/TORC1 activity, including the integrin alpha IIb, protein tyrosine kinase 2/focal adhesion kinase, IL-7R and Janus kinase 1(JAK1), and the activation of downstream targets of TORC1, including p70S6K, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein 1 (4EBP1) and CD36 (fatty acid translocase). These enhanced TORC1 pathway activities may culminate in increased expression of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (Pparγ) that regulates fatty acid storage, and the transcription factor sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 1 (Srebf1). Taken together, our data suggest that TORC2 may function to restrain TORC1-driven metabolic activity and mitochondrial regulation in myeloid DC.

Abstract
Abstract
Despite success in treating hematological malignancies, T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have shown poor efficacy in solid tumor indications. The failure to initiate and elicit a complete TCR response is arguably a primary underlying factor preventing CAR-T cell success in solid tumor indications. Here, we present a novel T cell engineering platform: T Cell Receptor Fusion Constructs (TRuC™s), which target tumors independent of MHC. Unlike CARs, the constructs integrate into the TCR complex, harnessing the full potential of natural T cell activation, effector function and regulation. Here we describe preclinical evidence underscoring the efficacy of TRuC™-T cells re-programmed to target the solid tumor antigen mesothelin (TC-210).
TC-210 has shown robust anti-tumor activity in cellular assays and animal models of lung, ovarian and MPM cancers. In these studies, TC-210 was compared head-to-head against mesothelin-targeting CAR-T cells (MSLN CAR-T cells) bearing the same mesothelin binder expressed on TC-210. Mesothelin-dependent T cell activation, expansion and tumor clearance by TC-210 was faster than that observed with MSLN CAR-T cells. In a study using Renilla-luciferase-labelled MSLN-CAR T cells and TC-210, TC-210 migrated and accumulated at a faster rate in mesothelioma tumors than MSLN-CAR T cells. This migration pattern correlated with an increased level of chemokine receptors and number of TC-210 expressing these receptors, including CXCR3. TC-210 T cells also showed long-term functional persistence capable of preventing relapse in a mesothelioma model. Metabolic profiling of TC-210 versus MSLN-CAR T cells showed that the observed persistence may be related to the metabolic profile of TC-210 T cells. Unlike MSLN-CAR-T cells, TC-210 showed increased levels of oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial reserve, attributes associated with long-term memory T cells. Finally, systemic cytokine levels in animals treated with TC-210 were lower than those observed in MSLN CAR-T cell treated animals.
Together, these findings warrant the investigation of TC-210 in clinical trials as effective treatment for mesothelin-expressing tumors with potentially lower rates of adverse events.

Abstract
Multiple studies have associated the transcription factor IRF1 with tumor-suppressive activities. Here, we report an opposite tumor cell-intrinsic function of IRF1 in promoting tumor growth. IRF1-deficient tumor cells showed reduced tumor growth in MC38 and CT26 colon carcinoma and B16 melanoma mouse models. This reduction in tumor growth was dependent on host CD8+ T cells. Detailed profiling of tumor-infiltrating leukocytes did not show changes in the various T-cell and myeloid cell populations. However, CD8+ T cells that had infiltrated IRF1-deficieint tumors in vivo exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity. IRF1-deficient tumor cells lost the ability to upregulate PD-L1 expression in vitro and in vivo and were more susceptible to T-cell-mediated killing. Induced expression of PD-L1 in IRF1-deficient tumor cells restored tumor growth. These results indicate differential activity of IRF1 in tumor escape.

Abstract
Access to nutrients is critical for an effective T cell immune response to infection. Although transporters for sugars and amino acids have previously been described in the context of the CD8+ T cell immune response, the active transport of exogenous fatty acids has remained enigmatic. In this study, we discovered that the sodium-dependent lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) transporter major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2A (MFSD2A) is upregulated on activated CD8+ T cells and is required for memory T cell maintenance. MFSD2A deficiency in mice resulted in decreased import of LPC esterified to long chain fatty acids into activated CD8+ T cells, and MFSD2A-deficient cells are at a competitive disadvantage resulting in reduced memory T cell formation and maintenance and reduced response to secondary infection. Mechanistically, import of LPCs was required to maintain T cell homeostatic turnover, which when lost resulted in a decreased memory T cell pool and thus a reduced secondary response to repeat infection.

Abstract
To fulfill bioenergetic demands of activation, T cells perform aerobic glycolysis, a process common to highly proliferative cells in which glucose is fermented into lactate rather than oxidized in mitochondria. However, the signaling events that initiate aerobic glycolysis in T cells remain unclear. We show T cell activation rapidly induces glycolysis independent of transcription, translation, CD28, and Akt and not involving increased glucose uptake or activity of glycolytic enzymes. Rather, TCR signaling promotes activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDHK1), inhibiting mitochondrial import of pyruvate and facilitating breakdown into lactate. Inhibition of PDHK1 reveals this switch is required acutely for cytokine synthesis but dispensable for cytotoxicity. Functionally, cytokine synthesis is modulated via lactate dehydrogenase, which represses cytokine mRNA translation when aerobic glycolysis is disengaged. Our data provide mechanistic insight to metabolic contribution to effector T cell function and suggest that T cell function may be finely tuned through modulation of glycolytic activity.

Abstract
Cellular metabolism supports immune cell function. Here, we identify a reduction in fatty acid synthesis and mitochondrial metabolism in dendritic cells (DC) due to α-fetoprotein (AFP), a protein secreted by hepatocellular cancer (HCC). DCs cultured in the presence of AFP show reduced expression of the metabolic regulatory molecules SREBP-1 and PGC1-α. The negative effect of AFP on mitochondrial metabolism and ATP production was confirmed with observation of reduction in basal oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in DCs exposed to AFP derived from cord blood. More severe reduction in basal OCR was observed in tumor-derived DCs exposed to AFP due to downregulation of cytochrome c oxidase. We also showed reduced expression of PGC1-α in circulating myeloid DCs of patients with HCC and impaired capacity to stimulate antigen-specific effector functions. These data show the negative effects of AFP on DC metabolism. These findings elucidate a mechanism of immune suppression in HCC and may help generate therapeutic approaches to reverse such immunosuppression.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment presents physical, immunologic, and metabolic barriers to durable immunotherapy responses. We have recently described roles for both T cell metabolic insufficiency as well as tumor hypoxia as inhibitory mechanisms that prevent T cell activity in murine tumors, but whether intratumoral T cell activity or response to immunotherapy varies between patients as a function of distinct metabolic profiles in tumor cells remains unclear. Here, we show that metabolic derangement can vary widely in both degree and type in patient-derived cell lines and in ex vivo analysis of patient samples, such that some cells demonstrate solely deregulated oxidative or glycolytic metabolism. Further, deregulated oxidative, but not glycolytic, metabolism was associated with increased generation of hypoxia upon implantation into immunodeficient animals. Generation of murine single-cell melanoma cell lines that lacked either oxidative or glycolytic metabolism showed that elevated tumor oxygen consumption was associated with increased T cell exhaustion and decreased immune activity. Moreover, melanoma lines lacking oxidative metabolism were solely responsive to anti-PD-1 therapy among those tested. Prospective analysis of patient sample immunotherapy revealed that oxidative, but not glycolytic, metabolism was associated with progression on PD-1 blockade. Our data highlight a role for oxygen as a crucial metabolite required for the tumor-infiltrating T cells to differentiate appropriately upon PD-1 blockade, and suggest that tumor oxidative metabolism may be a target to improve immunotherapeutic response.

Abstract
While T cells are important for the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis, little is known about how T cells function after infiltrating the kidney. The current paradigm suggests that kidney-infiltrating T cells (KITs) are activated effector cells contributing to tissue damage and ultimately organ failure. Herein, we demonstrate that the majority of CD4+ and CD8+ KITs in 3 murine lupus models are not effector cells, as hypothesized, but rather express multiple inhibitory receptors and are highly dysfunctional, with reduced cytokine production and proliferative capacity. In other systems, this hypofunctional profile is linked directly to metabolic and specifically mitochondrial dysfunction, which we also observed in KITs. The T cell phenotype was driven by the expression of an "exhausted" transcriptional signature. Our data thus reveal that the tissue parenchyma has the capability of suppressing T cell responses and limiting damage to self. These findings suggest avenues for the treatment of autoimmunity based on selectively exploiting the exhausted phenotype of tissue-infiltrating T cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: CD8+ tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TIL) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are unable to kill their tumor targets due to tumor cell & regulatory immune cell-mediated suppression. Poor metabolite availably has also been found to negatively impact TIL, as T cells have high energetic demands that are not met in the TME due to competition with surrounding tumor cells. Consequently, tumor growth is allowed to progress as TIL becomes exhausted & dysfunctional. Immunotherapy, such as PD-1 checkpoint blockade, has been highly successful at treating many types of human cancer, but the majority of patients do not respond for reasons which are still unclear. Cancer cells have been shown to have heterogeneous, dysregulated metabolism, which could be a barrier to immunotherapy. Therefore, we hypothesize that TIL dysfunction & thus resistance to immunotherapy is driven in part by metabolic insufficiency, & either improving TIL metabolism or normalizing tumor metabolism can lower the barrier to immunotherapy to improve cancer outcomes.
Methods: Metabolic capacity was measured using flow cytometry & flux analysis in murine and human tumor samples. T cell reprogramming was performed by retroviral transduction on antigen-specific T cells before adoptive transfer into tumor-bearing mice. TME reprogramming was performed on tumor-bearing mice that were treated with metformin every other day & anti-PD1 3x weekly.
Results: We found that exhausted TIL exhibit a profound loss of functional mitochondria. This is due in part to repression of the transcriptional co-activator PGC1α resulting in suppressed mitochondrial biogenesis. Enforcing mitochondrial biogenesis in T cells not only led to increased mitochondrial mass, but improved TIL functionality, decreased tumor burden, & increased survival in mouse melanoma. To understand the effects of T cell-extrinsic metabolic insufficiency, we explored the TME factor hypoxia on TIL function. CD8 T cells function poorly in hypoxia, thus causing a possible barrier to function. We first compared the energetics of different murine tumor lines & found that tumor cells with a more deregulated oxygen metabolism (i.e. those that created more hypoxia), tended to be resistant to immunotherapy. When tumor cells were treated with metformin in vivo, a compound that decreases tumor mitochondrial oxygen consumption, overall tumor hypoxia was decreased. Metformin alone did not improve tumor clearance, but when used in combination with PD-1 checkpoint blockade, TIL effector function was dramatically increased, 80% of mice experienced tumor regression, & 70% of mice became tumor-free.
Conclusions: TIL metabolic insufficiency may provide rationale as to why some patients do not benefit from PD-1 monotherapy. Decreasing TIL intrinsic or extrinsic metabolic insufficiency may improve upon existing cancer immunotherapies, as well as allow for development of targeted therapies to greatly improve cancer outcomes.

Abstract
Despite remarkable responses to cancer immunotherapy in a subset of patients, many patients remain resistant to these therapies. The tumor microenvironment can impose metabolic restrictions on T cell function, creating a resistance mechanism to immunotherapy. We have previously shown tumor-infiltrating T cells succumb to progressive loss of metabolic sufficiency, characterized by repression of mitochondrial activity that cannot be rescued by PD-1 blockade. 4-1BB, a costimulatory molecule highly expressed on exhausted T cells, has been shown to influence metabolic function. We hypothesized that 4-1BB signaling might provide metabolic support to tumor-infiltrating T cells. 4-1BB costimulation of CD8+ T cells results in enhanced mitochondrial capacity (suggestive of fusion) and engages PGC1α-mediated pathways via activation of p38-MAPK. 4-1BB treatment of mice improves metabolic sufficiency in endogenous and adoptive therapeutic CD8+ T cells. 4-1BB stimulation combined with PD-1 blockade results in robust antitumor immunity. Sequenced studies revealed the metabolic support afforded by 4-1BB agonism need not be continuous and that a short course of anti-4-1BB pretreatment was sufficient to provide a synergistic response. Our studies highlight metabolic reprogramming as the dominant effect of 4-1BB therapy and suggest that combinatorial strategies using 4-1BB agonism may help overcome the immunosuppressive metabolic landscape of the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Abstract
Lymphocyte Activation Gene-3 (LAG-3) is an inhibitory receptor expressed on the surface of various immune cells, including CD4+ T cells. While LAG-3 is more frequently associated with T cell exhaustion and regulatory T cells, it is also a negative regulator of T cell homeostatic expansion. Current interest in how cellular metabolism dictates immune cell function and fate has elucidated that CD4+ T cell function is tightly coupled to metabolism. Therefore, given that LAG-3 is a regulator of CD4+ T cell homeostatic expansion, and the ability to proliferate is highly dependent upon metabolism, we hypothesized that LAG-3 regulates the metabolic profile of naïve CD4+ T cells. Naive OT.II T cells were isolated from wildtype and LAG-3−/− animals, and analyzed by Seahorse Flux Analyzer. LAG-3−/− OT.II cells demonstrated significantly increased basal respiration, spare respiratory capacity, and aerobic glycolysis, as compared to wildtype OT.IIs, indicating an enhanced metabolic profile. Further analysis indicated that LAG-3-deficient OT.IIs displayed increased mitochondrial biogenesis via enhanced signaling through the AMPK/Sirt-1 pathway. In an adoptive transfer model of homeostatic expansion, LAG-3−/− OT.II cells expanded to a greater extent and continued to demonstrate an enhanced metabolic profile as compared to WT OT.IIs. This proved to be extrinsically regulated, as LAG-3 blockade in WT recipients recapitulated similar results to LAG-3−/− T cells. These results demonstrate that LAG-3 is critical for actively maintaining metabolic quiescence in naïve CD4+ T cells. Future directions include investigating the influence of LAG-3 and its metabolic regulation in the context of autoimmunity.

Abstract
Abstract
Little is known about how effector CD8 T cells obtain exogenous long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) during T cell activation. LCFAs assist with membrane biogenesis and are required for rapid proliferation as well as effector molecule generation. One potential mechanism of fatty acid import is in the form of lysophophatidylcholine (LPC) by lipid carrier major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2a (MFSD2A). Here, we show that MFSD2A is highly expressed in activated CD8 T cells. Conditional loss of MFSD2A caused an altered effector response and resulted in defective memory cell formation. Taken together, these data show MFSD2A and LPC play a role in CD8 T cell metabolomics. Our future studies will use mass spectrometry lipidomics and gene expression analysis to identify the mechanisms by which CD8 T cells use LCFAs to mount a robust immune response to infection.

Abstract
There is growing appreciation that cellular metabolic and bioenergetic pathways do not play merely passive roles in activated leukocytes. Rather, metabolism has important roles in controlling cellular activation, differentiation, survival, and effector function. Much of this work has been performed in T cells; however, there is still very little information regarding mast cell metabolic reprogramming and its effect on cellular function. Mast cells perform important barrier functions and help control type 2 immune responses. In this study we show that murine bone marrow-derived mast cells rapidly alter their metabolism in response to stimulation through the FcεRI. We also demonstrate that specific metabolic pathways appear to be differentially required for the control of mast cell function. Manipulation of metabolic pathways may represent a novel point for the manipulation of mast cell activation.

Abstract
Blockade of the coinhibitory checkpoint molecule PD-1 has emerged as an effective treatment for many cancers, resulting in remarkable responses. However, despite successes in the clinic, most patients do not respond to PD-1 blockade. Metabolic dysregulation is a common phenotype in cancer, but both patients and tumors are metabolically heterogeneous. We hypothesized that the deregulated oxidative energetics of tumor cells present a metabolic barrier to antitumor immunity through the generation of a hypoxic microenvironment and that normalization of tumor hypoxia might improve response to immunotherapy. We show that the murine tumor lines B16 and MC38 differed in their ability to consume oxygen and produce hypoxic environments, which correlated with their sensitivity to checkpoint blockade. Metformin, a broadly prescribed type II diabetes treatment, inhibited oxygen consumption in tumor cells in vitro and in vivo, resulting in reduced intratumoral hypoxia. Although metformin monotherapy had little therapeutic benefit in highly aggressive tumors, combination of metformin with PD-1 blockade resulted in improved intratumoral T-cell function and tumor clearance. Our data suggest tumor hypoxia acts as a barrier to immunotherapy and that remodeling the hypoxic tumor microenvironment has potential to convert patients resistant to immunotherapy into those that receive clinical benefit.

Abstract
Although tumor-specific T cells recognize cancer cells, they are often rendered dysfunctional due to an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Here we showed that T cells demonstrated persistent loss of mitochondrial function and mass when infiltrating murine and human tumors, an effect specific to the tumor microenvironment and not merely caused by activation. Tumor-infiltrating T cells showed a progressive loss of PPAR-gamma coactivator 1α (PGC1α), which programs mitochondrial biogenesis, induced by chronic Akt signaling in tumor-specific T cells. Reprogramming tumor-specific T cells through enforced expression of PGC1α resulted in superior intratumoral metabolic and effector function. Our data support a model in which signals in the tumor microenvironment repress T cell oxidative metabolism, resulting in effector cells with metabolic needs that cannot be met. Our studies also suggest that modulation or reprogramming of the altered metabolism of tumor-infiltrating T cells might represent a potential strategy to reinvigorate dysfunctional T cells for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Signaling via the Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin pathway influences CD4(+) T cell differentiation; low levels favor regulatory T cell induction and high levels favor Th induction. Although the lipid phosphatase phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) suppresses Akt activity, the control of PTEN activity is poorly studied in T cells. In this study, we identify multiple mechanisms that regulate PTEN expression. During Th induction, PTEN function is suppressed via lower mRNA levels, lower protein levels, and an increase in C-terminal phosphorylation. Conversely, during regulatory T cell induction, PTEN function is maintained through the stabilization of PTEN mRNA transcription and sustained protein levels. We demonstrate that differential Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling regulates PTEN transcription via the FoxO1 transcription factor. A mathematical model that includes multiple modes of PTEN regulation recapitulates our experimental findings and demonstrates how several feedback loops determine differentiation outcomes. Collectively, this work provides novel mechanistic insights into how differential regulation of PTEN controls alternate CD4(+) T cell fate outcomes.
