This study reveals that downregulation of Regnase-1 induced by IL-1 beta promotes pancreatic cancer by inducing MDSCs and evading anticancer immunity.
BackgroundPancreatitis is known to be an important risk factor for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the exact molecular mechanisms of how inflammation promotes PDAC are still not fully understood. Regnase-1, an endoribonuclease, regulates immune responses by degrading mRNAs of inflammation-related genes. Herein, we investigated the role of Regnase-1 in PDAC.MethodsClinical significance of intratumor Regnase-1 expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in 39 surgically-resected PDAC patients. The functional role of Regnase-1 was investigated by pancreas-specific Regnase-1 knockout mice and Kras-mutant Regnase-1 knockout mice. The mechanistic studies with gene silencing, RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (RIP-seq) and immune cell reconstitution were performed in human/mouse PDAC cell lines and a syngeneic orthotopic tumor transplantation model of KrasG12D-mutant and Trp53-deficient PDAC cells.ResultsRegnase-1 expression was negatively correlated with the clinical outcomes and an independent predictor of poor relapse-free and overall survival in PDAC patients. Pancreas-specific Regnase-1 deletion in mice promoteed pancreatic cancer with PMN-MDSC infiltration and shortened their survival. A syngeneic orthotopic PDAC model exhibited that Regnase-1 downregulation accelerated tumor progression via recruitment of intratumor CD11b+ MDSCs. Mechanistically, Regnase-1 directly negatively regulated a variety of chemokines/cytokines important for MDSC recruitment and activation, including CXCL1, CXCL2, CSF2, and TGF beta, in pancreatic cancer cells. We subsequently showed that IL-1 beta-mediated Regnase-1 downregulation recruited MDSCs to tumor sites and promoted pancreatic cancer progression via mitigation of cytotoxic T lympohocytes-mediated antitumor immunity.ConclusionsIL-1b-mediated Regnase-1 downregulation induces MDSCs and promotes pancreatic cancer through the evasion of anticancer immunity.
