Summary: The intestine is vulnerable to chemotherapy-induced damage due to the high rate of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation. We have developed a human intestinal organoid-based 3D model system to study the direct effect of chemotherapy-induced IEC damage on T cell behavior. Exposure of intestinal organoids to busulfan, fludarabine, and clofarabine induced damage-related responses affecting both the capacity to regenerate and transcriptional reprogramming. In ex vivo co-culture assays, prior intestinal organoid damage resulted in increased T cell activation, proliferation, and migration. We identified galectin-9 (Gal-9) as a key molecule released by damaged organoids. The use of anti-Gal-9 blocking antibodies or CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Gal-9 knock-out prevented intestinal organoid damage-induced T cell proliferation, interferon-gamma release, and migration. Increased levels of Gal-9 were found early after HSCT chemotherapeutic conditioning in the plasma of patients who later developed acute GVHD. Taken together, chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage can influence T cell behavior in a Gal-9-dependent manner which may provide novel strategies for therapeutic intervention. |
