    Abstract Immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies represent a paradigm shift in the treatment of human cancers; however, it remains incompletely understood how tumor-reactive T cells respond to ICB across tumor types. Here, we demonstrate that measuring CXCL13 expression could effectively identify both precursor and terminally differentiated tumor-reactive CD8

    Abstract A major obstacle in precision cancer medicine is the inevitable resistance to targeted therapies. Tremendous effort and progress has been made over the past few years to understand the biochemical and genetic mechanisms underlying drug resistance, with the goal to eventually overcome such daunting challenges. Diverse mechanisms, such as secondary mutations, oncogene bypass, and epigenetic alterations, can all lead to drug resistance, and the number of known involved genes is growing rapidly, thus providing many possibilities to overcome resistance. The finding of these mechanisms and genes invariably requires the application of genomic and functional genomic approaches to tumors or cancer models. In this review, we briefly highlight the major drug-resistance mechanisms known today, and then focus primarily on the technological approaches leading to the advancement of this field.

    Abstract T cells, as a crucial compartment of the tumour microenvironment, play vital roles in cancer immunotherapy. However, the basic properties of tumour-infiltrating T cells (TILs) such as the functional state, migratory capability and clonal expansion remain elusive. Here, using Smart-seq2 protocol, we have generated a RNA sequencing dataset of 11,138 T cells isolated from peripheral blood, adjacent normal and tumour tissues of 12 colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, including 4 with microsatellite instability (MSI). The dataset contained an expression profile of 10,805 T cells, as well as the full-length T cell receptor (TCR) sequences of 9,878 cells after quality control. To facilitate data mining of our T cell dataset, we developed a web-based application to deliver systematic interrogations and customizable functionalities ( http://crctcell.cancer-pku.cn/ ). Functioning with our dataset, the web tool enables the characterization of TILs based on both transcriptome and assembled TCR sequences at the single cell level, which will help unleash the potential value of our CRC T cell data resource.

    Abstract Summary: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) projects produced large-scale RNA sequencing data, which provides an opportunity for performing integrated expression analysis for all genes across tens of thousands of tumor and normal tissue specimens. Rapid access to and easy visualization of such valuable data could facilitate research in a wide biological area. Here, we present the GE-mini APP for smart phones, a mobile visualization tool for integrated gene expression data based on both TCGA and GTEx. This gene-centric expression viewer provides a convenient method for displaying expression profiles of all available tumor and tissue types, while allowing drilling down to detailed views for specific tissue types.

    Abstract Background: The tumor microenvironment (TME) has been shown to strongly influence treatment outcome for cancer patients in various indications and to influence the overall survival. However, the cells forming the TME in gastric cancer have not been extensively characterized.
    Results: We combine bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing from tumors and matched normal tissue of 24 treatment-naïve GC patients to better understand which cell types and transcriptional programs are associated with malignant transformation of the stomach. Clustering 96,623 cells of non-epithelial origin reveals 81 well-defined TME cell types. We find that activated fibroblasts and endothelial cells are most prominently overrepresented in tumors. Intercellular network reconstruction and survival analysis of an independent cohort imply the importance of these cell types together with immunosuppressive myeloid cell subsets and regulatory T cells in establishing an immunosuppressive microenvironment that correlates with worsened prognosis and lack of response in anti-PD1-treated patients. In contrast, we find a subset of IFNγ activated T cells and HLA-II expressing macrophages that are linked to treatment response and increased overall survival.
    Conclusions: Our gastric cancer single-cell TME compendium together with the matched bulk transcriptome data provides a unique resource for the identification of new potential biomarkers for patient stratification. This study helps further to elucidate the mechanism of gastric cancer and provides insights for therapy.

    Abstract Understanding of the functional states and clonal dynamics of T cells after immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is valuable for improving these therapeutic strategies. Here we performed Smart-seq2 single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis on 3,110 peripheral T cells of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients before and after the initiation of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockade. We identified individual peripheral T cell clones based on the full-length T cell receptor (TCR) sequences and monitored their dynamics during immunotherapy. We found a higher cytotoxic activity in the tumor-related CD4

    Abstract Anti-PD-1 treatment has shown unprecedented clinical success in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here, we performed temporal single-cell RNA and paired T-cell receptor sequencing on 47 tumor biopsies from 36 patients with NSCLC following PD-1-based therapies. We observed increased levels of precursor exhausted T (Texp) cells in responsive tumors after treatment, characterized by low expression of coinhibitory molecules and high expression of GZMK. By contrast, nonresponsive tumors failed to accumulate Texp cells. Our data suggested that Texp cells were unlikely to be derived from the reinvigoration of terminally exhausted cells; instead, they were accumulated by (1) local expansion and (2) replenishment by peripheral T cells with both new and pre-existing clonotypes, a phenomenon we named clonal revival. Our study provides insights into mechanisms underlying PD-1-based therapies, implicating clonal revival and expansion of Texp cells as steps to improve NSCLC treatment.
