Loss of MHC class I (MHC-I) antigen presentation in cancer cells can elicit immunotherapy resistance. A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen identified an evolutionarily conserved function of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) that mediates coordinated transcriptional silencing of the MHC-I antigen processing pathway (MHC-I APP), promoting evasion of T cell-mediated immunity. MHC-I APP gene promoters in MHC-I low cancers harbor bivalent activating H3K4me3 and repressive H3K27me3 histone modifications, silencing basal MHC-I expression and restricting cytokine-induced upregulation. Bivalent chromatin at MHC-I APP genes is a normal developmental process active in embryonic stem cells and maintained during neural progenitor differentiation. This physiological MHC-I silencing highlights a conserved mechanism by which cancers arising from these primitive tissues exploit PRC2 activity to enable immune evasion.

Polycomb 的进化保守功能可沉默 MHC I 类抗原呈递途径并实现癌症的免疫逃避。



癌细胞中 MHC I 类 (MHC-I) 抗原呈递的丧失会引发免疫治疗耐药性。全基因组 CRISPR/Cas9 筛选发现了多梳抑制复合物 2 (PRC2) 的进化保守功能,该功能介导 MHC-I 抗原加工途径 (MHC-I APP) 的协调转录沉默,促进 T 细胞介导的免疫的逃避。 MHC-I 低癌症中的 MHC-I APP 基因启动子含有二价激活 H3K4me3 和抑制性 H3K27me3 组蛋白修饰,沉默基础 MHC-I 表达并限制细胞因子诱导的上调。 MHC-I APP 基因的二价染色质是胚胎干细胞中活跃的正常发育过程,并在神经祖细胞分化过程中得以维持。这种生理性 MHC-I 沉默凸显了一种保守机制,这些原始组织产生的癌症利用 PRC2 活性来逃避免疫。
