摘要:

一类新型的exportin-1 (XPO1) 抑制剂selinexor当前正在与BTK抑制剂ibrutinib联合使用,对慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)或非霍奇金淋巴瘤患者进行临床研究。Selinexor通过使肿瘤抑制蛋白核滞留来诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡,并最近被发现调节自然杀伤细胞(NK细胞)和T细胞对淋巴瘤细胞的细胞毒作用。在这里,我们证明XPO1抑制增强了NK细胞对原发性CLL细胞的效应功能,通过下调HLA-E和上调TRAIL死亡受体DR4和DR5。此外,selinexor与几种已批准的治疗方法(acalabrutinib、rituximab和obinutuzumab)联合使用能增强对CLL细胞的NK细胞激活。我们进一步证明,淋巴结相关信号(IL-4+CD40L)通过上调HLA-E抑制了NK细胞对CLL细胞的激活,而XPO1的抑制可以克服这种保护效应。这些发现为设计更有效的联合策略,利用NK细胞的效应功能对抗CLL提供了可能。© 2023.

The first-in-class inhibitor of exportin-1 (XPO1) selinexor is currently under clinical investigation in combination with the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) or non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Selinexor induces apoptosis of tumour cells through nuclear retention of tumour suppressor proteins and has also recently been described to modulate natural killer (NK) cell and T cell cytotoxicity against lymphoma cells. Here, we demonstrate that XPO1 inhibition enhances NK cell effector function against primary CLL cells via downregulation of HLA-E and upregulation of TRAIL death receptors DR4 and DR5. Furthermore, selinexor potentiates NK cell activation against CLL cells in combination with several approved treatments; acalabrutinib, rituximab and obinutuzumab. We further demonstrate that lymph node associated signals (IL-4 + CD40L) inhibit NK cell activation against CLL cells via upregulation of HLA-E, and that inhibition of XPO1 can overcome this protective effect. These findings allow for the design of more efficacious combination strategies to harness NK cell effector functions against CLL.© 2023. The Author(s).
