    • Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic neoplasm with few treatment options and dismal prognosis. The role of natural killer (NK) cells and other antileukemic lymphocytes in CMML is largely unknown. We aimed to provide insight into the mechanisms of immune evasion in CMML with a focus on immunosuppressive reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed by the myeloid cell NADPH oxidase-2 (NOX2). The dominant population of primary human CMML cells was found to express membrane-bound NOX2 and to release ROS, which, in turn, triggered extensive PARP-1-dependent cell death in cocultured NK cells, CD8(+) T effector memory cells, and CD8(+) T effector cells. Inhibitors of ROS formation and scavengers of extracellular ROS prevented CMML cell-induced lymphocyte death and facilitated NK cell degranulation toward Ab-coated, primary CMML cells. In patients with CMML, elevation of immature cell counts (CD34(+)) in blood was associated with reduced expression of several NK cell-activating receptors. We propose that CMML cells may use extracellular ROS as a targetable mechanism of immune escape.

  • Age-Related Efficacy of Immunotherapy with Histamine Dihydrochloride and Interleukin-2 for Relapse Prevention in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Annals of Hematology. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0939-5555 .- 1432-0584. ; 90:Suppl. 1, s. S30-S32

    • Recurrence of leukemia after the completion of induction and consolidation chemotherapy is a significant clinical concern in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Apart from allogeneic bone marrow transplantation there is no consensus about effective relapse-protective therapy beyond the consolidation phase, and the standard of care for the majority of patients in complete remission (CR) hence is no treatment. Here we present updated results from a phase 3 trial (n=320) evaluating the prevention of relapse in AML patients receiving immunotherapy with histamine dihydrochloride (HDC) and low-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2). This trial was previously reported to meet the primary endpoint of improved leukemia-free survival (LFS) in the primary population of all randomized patients. Our results imply that treatment with HDC/IL-2 prevents relapse in patients 40–70 years old in first CR (p=0.008, leukemia-free survival (LFS), n=190, log rank test) with a more than 80% relative increase in the likelihood of LFS at 3 years. HDC/IL-2 was not significantly efficacious in young patients (<40 years old). Further studies are underway to define the impact of HDC/IL-2 on immune function and the putative efficacy of therapy in genetic subgroups of AML.

  • TLR-Stimulated Neutrophils Instruct NK Cells To Trigger Dendritic Cell Maturation and Promote Adaptive T Cell Responses
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Journal of Immunology. - : The American Association of Immunologists. - 0022-1767 .- 1550-6606. ; 195:3, s. 1121-1128

    • Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are innate effector cells with pivotal roles in pathogen recognition, phagocytosis, and eradication. However, their role in the development of subsequent immune responses is incompletely understood. This study aimed to identify mechanisms of relevance to the cross talk between human neutrophils and NK cells and its potential role in promoting adaptive immunity. TLR-stimulated PMNs were found to release soluble mediators to attract and activate NK cells in vitro. PMN-conditioned NK cells displayed enhanced cytotoxicity and cytokine production, and responded vigorously to ensuing stimulation with exogenous and endogenous IL-12. The neutrophil-induced activation of NK cells was prevented by caspase-1 inhibitors and by natural antagonists to IL-1 and IL-18, suggesting a role for the NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing-3 inflammasome. In addition, PMN-conditioned NK cells triggered the maturation of monocyte-derived dendritic cells, which promoted T cell proliferation and IFN-gamma production. These data imply that neutrophils attract NK cells to sites of infection to convert these cells into an active state, which drives adaptive immune responses via maturation of dendritic cells. Our results add to a growing body of evidence that suggests a sophisticated role for neutrophils in orchestrating the immune response to pathogens.
