In a recent report in Nature, Goto et al. reveal a novel immune-evasion mechanism adopted by early colorectal cancer (CRC) cells that is based on the transcription factor sex determining region Y (SRY)-box transcription factor 17 (SOX17). Leveraging colorectal adenoma and cancer models to perform comprehensive transcriptomic/chromatin analyses, this work shows that SOX17 generates immune-silent leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) tumor cells, which suppress interferon gamma (IFNγ) signaling and promote immune escape.
在最近发表在《自然》杂志上的一份报告中,Goto 等人揭示了早期结直肠癌(CRC)细胞采用的一种新的免疫逃逸机制,该机制基于性别决定区 Y(SRY)框转录因子 17(SOX17)。利用结直肠腺瘤和癌症模型进行全面的转录组/染色质分析,这项工作表明 SOX17 产生免疫沉默富含亮氨酸重复的 G 蛋白偶联受体 5(LGR5)肿瘤细胞,这些细胞抑制干扰素 γ(IFNγ)信号并促进免疫逃逸。
