Abstract |
The balance between active immune responses against human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV-induced
immune escape regulates viral clearance and carcinogenesis. To understand the role of the early viral protein
HPV16 E2 in host innate immune responses, the HPV16 E2-transfected murine squamous cell carcinoma
cell line SCCVII (SCC/E2) was generated and anti-tumor responses in T-cell-depleted mice were
evaluated. Tumor growth of SCC/E2 was markedly reduced. Cytotoxicity against the NK-sensitive targets
YAC-1 and SCCVII was clearly enhanced in SCC/E2-inoculated mice. Despite the comparable ratio of NK
cells, the proportion of CD11b+Gr-1+ myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) was significantly
decreased in SCC/E2-inoculated mice. The transcription of MDSC-related mediators such as inducible
nitric oxide synthase, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, and heme oxygenase-1 was significantly impaired
in the SCC/E2-inoculated tumor tissues on day 3. Our results suggest that HPV16 E2 promotes anti-tumor
innate effector function by modulating immunoregulatory events mediated by MDSCs and their mediators.
This report describes a new role for HPV16 E2 as a local immunomodulator at infected sites. |
