Popis: Abstract HDAC3 has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in the progression of various tumors and the differentiation and development of T cells. However, its impact on peripheral T cells in the development of murine lung cancer remains unclear. In this experiment, a subcutaneous lung tumor model was established in C57BL/6 mice, and tumor-bearing mice were treated with the specific inhibitor of HDAC3, RGFP966, at different doses to observe changes in tumor size. Additionally, a lung tumor model was established using hdac3 fl/fl cd4cre +/+ mice to investigate its mechanism. Mice injected with 10 mg/kg RGFP966 had the smallest tumor volume, while those injected with 30 mg/kg RGFP966 had the largest tumors. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the expression of HDAC3 in splenic T cells was reduced in all groups of mice, while IFN-γ and IL-17 A were increased. Moreover, the expression of granzyme B and perforin in splenic CD8+ T cells was increased in all groups of mice. Compared to the use of 30 mg/kg RGFP966 alone, the combination with anti-IL-17 A mAb reduced the infiltration of Neutrophils and exhausted T cells in mouse tumors, thereby impeding tumor development. These findings demonstrate that the use of RGFP966 or T cell-specific loss of hdac3 promotes the expression of IL-17 A in splenic T cells, leading to tumor resistance and providing insights for clinical treatment.
