ABSTRACT
Aims:
This paper was to scrutinize the toxicity mechanism of anti-programmed death 1 (anti-PD-1) therapy-caused spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods:
Bone marrow transplant Rag1-/- mice were used to establish SCI model.Results:
Anti-PD-1 results in SCI via CD8+ T-cells activation, while excessive activation of CD8+ T-cells further aggravated SCI. Both anti-PD-1 and the activation of CD8+ T-cells induced the expression of apoptosis-related perforin, GrB and FasL, but suppressed PI-9 level. The opposite results were observed in the effects of neuroserpin on these factors. CD8+ T-cells activation induced neurotoxicity via upregulation perforin, GrB and FasL and inhibiting PI-9. Additionally, neuroserpin suppressed CD8+ T-cells activation via perforin/GrB/PI-9/FasL pathways.Conclusion:
These results may provide theoretical foundation for the clinical treatment of SCI caused by anti-PD-1.
What is this article about? In the process of treating cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-programmed death 1 (anti-PD-1) therapy, as a form of immunotherapy, have developed rapidly and changed the way to manage cancers significantly. However, some cancer patients who receive immune checkpoint blockade treatment suffer from severe adverse effects including spinal cord injury (SCI). This article for the first time constructed a bone marrow transplant mouse model to explore the toxicity mechanism of anti-PD-1 therapy-caused SCI.What were the results? We found that anti-PD-1 therapy can induce the activation of immune cells, while immune cell activation further promotes self-destruction of nerve cells by regulating cell death pathways.What do the results of the study mean? The mechanism of anti-PD-1 therapy-caused SCI is to activate of immune cells through regulating cell death pathways, thereby inducing self-destruction of nerve cells. These findings provide theoretical foundation for the clinical treatment of SCI caused by anti-PD-1 therapy.
