Popis: The PD-1:PD-L1 axis is a major immune regulatory pathway that blunts T cell activation in the tumor microenvironment. We recently identified that PD-1 is also upregulated on ovarian mouse tumor-infiltrating myeloid dendritic cells (TIDCs) that exhibit an immune suppressive phenotype. Extending those observations in this study, we now report that PD-1 is also expressed on human myeloid TIDCs of ovarian cancer patients, on which it suppresses the expression of co-stimulatory molecules (CD40 and CD80) as well as production of inflammatory cytokines. Mechanistic studies revealed that PD-1 on TIDCs is associated with Src homology domain-containing phosphatase-2 (SHP-2) and that PD-1-mediated blockade of NFkB-dependent cytokine release is SHP-2 dependent. PD-1 also inhibits NFkB-mediated antigen presentation which appears, however, to be independent of SHP-2. Thus, suppression of NFkB is critical in mediating PD-1-induced paralysis of ovarian tumor-associated immune TIDCs and is mediated through multiple signaling circuits that are both SHP-2 dependent and independent.
