RESUMO

The high expression of programmed death 1 (PD-1) is a hallmark of T cell exhaustion, consequently inhibiting the anti-tumor immunity, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) aggravate Osteosarcoma (OS) progression. However, PD-1 expression on TAMs in OS metastasis remains unclear. Here, we used scRNA-Seq of 15500 individual cells from human OS lung metastatic lesion, identified thirteen major cell clusters. Our data revealed that tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) OS lung metastatic accompanied by accumulation of exhausted T cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs). CD3+ T cells from human OS lung metastatic exhibited lower proliferation than in primary tissue. Importantly, TAMs mainly comprise immunosuppressive M2 phenotype in OS metastasis. Mechanistically, we found that PD-1 of TAMs inhibits the phagocytic potency, further promoting the progression of OS metastasis. Therefore, the study provides a strong technical support for OS immunotherapy based on PD-1 inhibitors.

RESUMO

Human pluripotent stem cell-derived islets (hPSC islets) are a promising alternative to primary human islets for the treatment of insulin-deficient diabetes. We previously demonstrated the feasibility of this approach in nonhuman primates; however, the therapeutic effects of hPSC islets can be limited by the maladaptive processes at the transplantation site. Here, we demonstrate successful implantation of hPSC-derived islets in a new transplantation site in the abdomen, the subanterior rectus sheath, in eight nonhuman primates (five male and three female). In this proof-of-principle study, we find that hPSC islets survive and gradually mature after transplantation, leading to improved glycemic control in diabetic primates. Notably, C-peptide secretion responds to meal challenge from 6 weeks post-transplantation (wpt), with stimulation indices comparable to those of native islets. The average post-prandial C-peptide level reaches approximately 2.0 ng ml-1 from 8 wpt, which is five times higher than the peak value we previously obtained after portal vein infusion of hPSC islets and was associated with a decrease of glycated hemoglobin levels by 44% at 12 wpt. Although additional studies in larger cohorts involving long-term follow-up of transplants are needed, our results indicate that the subanterior rectus sheath supports functional maturation and maintenance of hPSC islets, suggesting that it warrants further exploration as a transplantation target site in the context of for hPSC-based cell-replacement therapies.
