Abstract
Chemoresistance is the leading cause of cancer-related death. How chemotherapy subjugates the cellular crosstalk in the tumour microenvironment to cause chemoresistance remains to be defined. Here we find chemotherapy enables immunosuppressive SDF1+ endothelial niche to evade immunosurveillance in ovarian and breast cancers. We integrated human patient data and mouse models to show that chemotherapy selectively activates PARP1–SDF1 axis in tumour endothelial cells (ECs). This angiocrine SDF1 interferes with antitumour interplay between CXCL10+ macrophages and CXCR3+CD8+ T cells and promotes tumour progression in ovarian and breast cancers. Proteome-based screening revealed that endothelial PARP1 PARylates MLKL, a key necroptosis effector to upregulate angiocrine SDF1 in ECs. In sum, we identify PARylation-dependent necroptosis in tumour ECs as an important step in subverting the tumour microenvironment to evade immunosurveillance.

a, Flowchart of ADP-ribose modified protein target screening in human primary ECs. HUVECs were pretreated with 5 μg/mL CBP for 48 hours to induce PARP1 activation and lysed. Cell lysates were incubated with agarose conjugated with MAR/PAR-binding module GST-Af1521-WT or GST-Af1521-Mutant without binding activity. ADP-ribose modified proteins were then identified by mass spectrometry. b, GST-tagged Af1521, RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL was incubated with 20 pmol PAR in reaction buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, 1% NP-40) respectively. Individual protein was pull down with anti-GST antibody and analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-PAR antibody. Representative blot is shown in figures. c, Identification of MLKL as a PARP1 substrate protein by mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. HUVECs lysates retrieved in step (a) were analyzed with SDS-PAGE. Gel slices were digested and fractionated by high PH reverse-phase HPLC equipped with Agilent 300Extend C18 column. LC-MS/MS was performed with Q Exactive Plus mass spectrometer (Thermo). Raw data were processed with Maxquant search engine.d, Co-immunoprecipitation shows interaction between endogenous MLKL and PARP1 in HUVECs. HUVECs were treated with 5 μg/mL CBP for 48 hours. Endogenous PARP1 was immunoprecipitated by anti-PARP1 (Abcam), and PARP1 associated endogenous MLKL was detected by MLKL antibody (Huabio). Endogenous MLKL was immunoprecipitated by MLKL antibody (Huabio) and MLKL associated endogenous PARP1 was detected by PARP1 antibody (Abcam). Experiments were repeated three times, and representative western blot image is shown. Each lane represents one biological sample, and three biological replicates were used.

The box represents the interquartile range with median, minimum and maximum represented by the box centre line and whiskers, respectively. b, scRNA-seq analysis showing chemotherapy decreased CXCL10 expression in macrophages derived from breast cancer and ovarian cancer patient tumors. c, Schema illustrating generation of myeloid cell specific deletion of Cxcr4. Cxcr4loxP/loxP mice were crossed with mice expressing myeloid cell-specific LysM-Cre to generate Cxcr4ΔM/ΔM mice, enabling specific deletion of Cxcr4 in macrophages. d, e, Characterization of myeloid cell specific deletion of CXCR4 (Cxcr4ΔM/ΔM) mice. Breast cancer cells (E0771) were transplanted into the mouse mammary fat pad. Tumor associated macrophages were isolated. CXCR4 expression was analyzed by western blot (d) and optical density was quantified by ImageJ (e) (n = 8 biological replicates). f, g, Reduction of CXCL10+ macrophage population in mouse breast tumor after CBP was recovered in Cxcr4ΔM/ΔM mice. Breast cancer cells (E0771) were transplanted into the mouse mammary fat pad. Percentage of CXCL10+ macrophage population from indicated mice was analyzed by flow cytometry (f) and compared (g) (n = 8 biological replicates). ****P < 0.0001 were calculated using two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test as post-hoc analysis for e and g.
Extended Data Fig. 5 Depletion of CD8 T cells enhanced the growth of transplanted tumor cells.

Each dot represents one individual animal (n = 8 biological replicates). b, Flowchart of CD8+ T cell depletion by anti-CD8a antibody in E0771 tumor-bearing mice. Depletion of CD8+ T cells was achieved by intraperitoneal injections of 100 μg of anti-mouse CD8a antibody suspended in 200 μL of PBS every 4 days, starting one day before tumor cell injection. Depletion of CD8 T cells was confirmed by flow cytometry analyses of peripheral blood at day 5 and day 13. c, Flow-cytometry plots of CD8+ populations in peripheral blood at day 5 and 13 demonstrate that CD8+ T cell population was depleted by αCD8 antibody (n = 8 biological replicates). d, e, Breast tumor tissues were excised from Sdf1iΔEC/iΔEC or control Sdf1loxP/loxP mice and analyzed with flow cytometry (d). Percentage of CXCR3+CD8+ T cell population in the retrieved CD8+ T cells from indicated mice was compared (e). Each dot represents sample from individual animals (n = 8 biological replicates). **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001 and N.S. were calculated using two-sided unpaired t-test for a or two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test as post-hoc analysis for c and e.
