Spontaneous CD8 T-cell responses occur in growing tumors but are usually poorly
effective. Understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive these
responses is of major interest as they could be exploited to generate a more
efficacious antitumor immunity. As such, stimulator of IFN genes (STING), an
adaptor molecule involved in cytosolic DNA sensing, is required for the induction
of antitumor CD8 T responses in mouse models of cancer. Here, we find that
enforced activation of STING by intratumoral injection of cyclic dinucleotide
GMP-AMP (cGAMP), potently enhanced antitumor CD8 T responses leading to growth
control of injected and contralateral tumors in mouse models of melanoma and
colon cancer. The ability of cGAMP to trigger antitumor immunity was further
enhanced by the blockade of both PD1 and CTLA4. The STING-dependent antitumor
immunity, either induced spontaneously in growing tumors or induced by
intratumoral cGAMP injection was dependent on type I IFNs produced in the tumor
microenvironment. In response to cGAMP injection, both in the mouse melanoma
model and an ex vivo model of cultured human melanoma explants, the principal
source of type I IFN was not dendritic cells, but instead endothelial cells.
Similarly, endothelial cells but not dendritic cells were found to be the
principal source of spontaneously induced type I IFNs in growing tumors. These
data identify an unexpected role of the tumor vasculature in the initiation of
CD8 T-cell antitumor immunity and demonstrate that tumor endothelial cells can be
targeted for immunotherapy of melanoma.
