Abstract |
Recently, we reported that human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I expression is predominantly regulated by the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway as one of the oncogenic regulations of HLA class I expression. In the present study, we examined mechanisms of how HLA class I and PD-L1 are regulated by MAPK inhibitors and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). Furthermore, we evaluated the expression of major signal transduction molecules by Western blot and anti-tumor CTL activity by a cytotoxic assay when HLA class I and PD-L1 were modulated by MAPK inhibitors and/or IFN-γ. As a result, we confirmed, as a more general phenomenon, that the inhibition of MAPK could upregulate HLA class I expression in a panel of human solid tumors (n = 26). Of note, we showed that MAPK inhibitors act on the upregulation of HLA class I expression through a different pathway from IFN-γ; there was an additive effect in the upregulation of HLA class I when treated with the combination of MAPK inhibitors and IFN-γ, and there was no overlapping activation of JAK2/STAT1 and Erk1/2 molecules when treated with either IFN-γ or MAPK inhibitors. Furthermore, we showed that IFN-γ-treatment impaired the tumor-specific CTL activity due to the upregulation of PD-L1 in spite of the upregulation of HLA class I, while MAPK inhibitors can augment the tumor-specific CTL activity due to the upregulated HLA class I without PD-L1 alterations. In conclusion, in addition to the original anti-proliferative activity, MAPK inhibitors may work toward the enhancement of T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity through the upregulation of HLA class I without the upregulation of PD-L1.
