In recent studies, the tolerable safety profile and positive bone marrow (BM) response suggest a beneficial use of anti-PD-1 agents in the treatment of Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS), but the underlying mechanism is still unknown. MDS is mainly characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, which may contribute to inflammatory signaling or immune dysfunction. Our previous studies focused on inflammatory signaling, and the results showed that S100a9 expression was higher in low-risk MDS and lower in high-risk MDS. In this study, we combine the inflammatory signaling and immune dysfunction. SKM-1 cells and K562 cells co-cultured with S100a9 acquire apoptotic features. Moreover, we confirm the inhibitory effect of S100a9 on PD-1/PD-L1. Importantly, PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and S100a9 can both activate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. The cytotoxicity is higher in lower-risk MDS-lymphocytes than in high-risk MDS-lymphocytes, and S100a9 partially rescues the exhausted cytotoxicity in lymphocytes. Our study demonstrates that S100a9 may inhibit MDS-associated tumor escape via PD-1/PD-L1 blockade through PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway activation. Our findings indicate the possible mechanisms by which anti-PD-1 agents may contribute to the treatment of MDS. These insights may provide mutation-specific treatment as a supplementary therapy for MDS patients with high-risk mutations, such as TP53, N-RAS or other complex mutations. |
