Abstrakt: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies can increase the risk of cardiovascular events in survivors of cancer by worsening atherosclerosis. Here we map the expression of immune checkpoints (ICs) within human carotid and coronary atherosclerotic plaques, revealing a network of immune cell interactions that ICI treatments can unintentionally target in arteries. We identify a population of mature, regulatory CCR7 + FSCN1 + dendritic cells, similar to those described in tumors, as a hub of IC-mediated signaling within plaques. Additionally, we show that type 2 diabetes and lipid-lowering therapies alter immune cell interactions through PD-1, CTLA4, LAG3 and other IC targets in clinical development, impacting plaque inflammation. This comprehensive map of the IC interactome in healthy and cardiometabolic disease states provides a framework for understanding the potential adverse and beneficial impacts of approved and investigational ICIs on atherosclerosis, setting the stage for designing ICI strategies that minimize cardiovascular disease risk in cancer survivors.
