PTPN2 regulates the generation of exhausted CD8+ T cell subpopulations and restrains tumor immunity

T cell exhaustion is a state of dysfunction acquired in chronic viral infection and cancer, characterized by the formation of Slamf6
+
progenitor exhausted and Tim-3
+
terminally exhausted subpopulations through unknown mechanisms. Here we establish the phosphatase PTPN2 as a new regulator of the differentiation of the terminally exhausted subpopulation that functions by attenuating type 1 interferon signaling. Deletion of
Ptpn2
in CD8
+
T cells increased the generation, proliferative capacity and cytotoxicity of Tim-3
+
cells without altering Slamf6
+
numbers during lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus clone 13 infection. Likewise
, Ptpn2
deletion in CD8
+
T cells enhanced Tim-3
+
anti-tumor responses and improved tumor control. Deletion of
Ptpn2
throughout the immune system resulted in MC38 tumor clearance and improved programmed cell death-1 checkpoint blockade responses to B16 tumors. Our results indicate that increasing the number of cytotoxic Tim-3
+
CD8
+
T cells can promote effective anti-tumor immunity and implicate PTPN2 in immune cells as an attractive cancer immunotherapy target.
Exhaustion is an acquired state of T cell dysfunction. Sharpe and colleagues demonstrate that the phosphatase PTPN2 supports a T cell-intrinsic exhaustion program in both chronic infection and cancer models. |
