In the present report, we have investigated TRAIL/APO2 ligand
(APO2L) expression, regulation, and function in human lung carcinoma
tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Using a panel of non-small cell lung
carcinoma cell lines, we first showed that most of them expressed
TRAIL-R1/DR4, TRAIL-R2/DR5, but not TRAIL-R3/DcR1 and TRAIL-R4/DcR2,
and were susceptible to APO2L/TRAIL-induced cell death. Two
APO2L/TRAIL-sensitive tumor cell lines (MHC class
I+/II+ or I+/II-) were
selected and specific CD4+ HLA-DR- or CD8+
HLA-A2-restricted CTL clones were respectively isolated from autologous
tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Interestingly, although the
established T cell clones did not constitutively express detectable
levels of APO2L/TRAIL, engagement of their TCR via activation with
specific tumor cells selectively induced profound APO2L/TRAIL
expression on the CD4+, but not on the CD8+,
CTL clones. Furthermore, as opposed to the CD8+ CTL clone
which mainly used granule exocytosis pathway, the CD4+ CTL
clone lysed the specific target via both perforin/granzymes and
APO2L/TRAIL-mediated mechanisms. The latter cytotoxicity
correlated with APO2L/TRAIL expression and was significantly enhanced
in the presence of IFN-
. More interestingly, in vivo studies
performed in SCID/nonobese diabetic mice transplanted with
autologous tumor and transferred with the specific CD4+ CTL
clone in combination with IFN-
resulted in an important
APO2L/TRAIL-mediated tumor growth inhibition, which was prohibited by
soluble TRAIL-R2. Our findings suggest that APO2L/TRAIL, specifically
induced by autologous tumor and up-regulated by IFN-
, may be a key
mediator of tumor-specific CD4+ CTL-mediated cell death and
point to a potent role of this T cell subset in tumor growth
control.
