RESUMO

Siglec-15 (Sig15) has been implicated as an immune checkpoint expressed in solid tumor-infiltrating macrophages and is being targeted in clinical trials with mAbs to normalize the tumor immune microenvironment and stimulate antitumor immunity. However, the role of Sig15 in hematologic malignancies remains undefined. Sig15 mRNA and protein expression levels in hematologic malignancies were determined from publicly available databases, cell lines, and primary patient samples. Human B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) cell lines were used to identify signaling pathways involved in the regulation of Sig15 expression. Secreted/soluble Sig15 and cytokine levels were measured from the plasma of children with leukemia and healthy controls. Knockdown and knockout of Siglec15 in a murine model of B-ALL was used to evaluate the effect of leukemia-derived Sig15 on the immune response to leukemia. We observed pathologic overexpression of Sig15 in a variety of hematologic malignancies, including primary B-ALL samples. This overexpression was driven by NFκB activation, which also increased the surface localization of Sig15. Secreted/soluble Sig15 was found to circulate at elevated levels in the plasma of children with B-ALL and correlated with an immune-suppressive cytokine milieu. Genetic inhibition of Sig15 in murine B-ALL promoted clearance of the leukemia by the immune system and a marked reversal of the immune-privileged leukemia bone marrow niche, including expanded early effector CD8+ T cells and reduction of immunosuppressive cytokines. Thus, Sig15 is a novel, potent immunosuppressive molecule active in leukemia that may be targeted therapeutically to activate T lymphocytes against leukemia cells. Significance: We demonstrate that Sig15 is overexpressed in hematologic malignancies driven by NFκB, is required for immune evasion in a mouse model of leukemia, and, for the first time, that it circulates at high levels in the plasma of children with leukemia.
