Article Title: Disruption of FGL2 induces TFEB-dependent lysosomal degradation of PD-L1 and enhances the efficacy of anti-PD1 therapy in hepatocellular carcinoma
doi: 10.1186/s12964-026-02704-7
Figure Lengend Snippet: FGL2 disruption promoted the expression of nuclear TFEB. The cytosolic and nuclear distribution of TFEB ( A ) and MITF ( B ) in MHCC97H cells was detected by WB following FGL2 knockdown. Quantification of nuclear TFEB or MITF to Histone-H3 was shown. ( C ) Images and quantification of nuclear TFEB in MHCC97H cells were displayed. Scale bar, 50 μm. The expression levels of TFEB ( D ) and MITF ( E ) were determined by WB in mouse liver cancer tissues ( n = 6). The transcriptional levels of Lamp1, Atp6v0d2 , Ctns and Ctsb were detected by qPCR in mouse liver cancer tissues ( F ) and MHCC97H cells ( G ). TFEB siRNA or control siRNA was transfected to MHCC97H cells pretreated with FGL2 shRNA or control shRNA. The protein levels of LAMP1, CTSD ( H ), and PD-L1 ( I ) were determined by WB. The relative quantification of LAMP1, CTSD or PD-L1 to GAPDH was shown. ( J ) The expression of TFEB in an HCC tissue microarray was detected by mIHC. Representative images were shown. Scale bar, 20 μm. Kaplan-Meier analysis of the progression-free survival ( K ) and overall survival ( L ) of HCC patients based on nuclear TFEB expression ( n = 85). Data were presented as mean ± SEM. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001
