Abstract

Immune checkpoint blockade therapies (ICBTs) targeting programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1/B7-H1/CD274) have exhibited momentous clinical benefits and durable responses in multiple tumor types. However, primary resistance is found in considerable number of cancer patients, and most responders eventually develop acquired resistance to ICBT. To tackle these challenges, it is essential to understand how PD-L1 is controlled by cancer cells to evade immune surveillance. Recent research has shed new light into the mechanisms of PD-L1 regulation at genetic, epigenetic, transcriptional, translational, and posttranslational levels. In this work, we systematically discuss the mechanisms that control the gene amplification, epigenetic alteration, transcription, subcellular transportation and posttranscriptional modification of PD-L1 in cancer cells. We further categorize posttranscriptional PD-L1 regulations by the molecular modification of PD-L1, including glycosylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, deubiquitination, and lysosomal degradation. These findings may provide new routes for targeting tumor immune escape and catalyze the development of small molecular inhibitors of PD-L1 in addition to existing antibody drugs.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
