Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells are effectors of the innate immune system, able to kill cancer cells through the release of the cytotoxic protease granzyme B. NK-based therapies have recently emerged as promising anticancer strategies. However, it is well established that hypoxic tumor microenvironment interferes with the antitumor function of immune cells and constitutes a major obstacle for defining cancer immunotherapies. Recent studies demonstrated that autophagy regulates the innate immune response by mechanisms which are not fully understood. In this study, we showed that hypoxia decreases breast cancer cell susceptibility to NK-mediated lysis by a mechanism involving the activation of autophagy in tumor cells. Targeting autophagy was sufficient to restore NK-mediated tumor cell killing. We showed that the resistance of hypoxic tumor cells was neither related to a defect in their recognition by NK cells, nor to a defect in the cytolytic function of NK cells toward hypoxic cells. We provided evidence that autophagy activation degrades NK-derived granzyme B in lysosomes of hypoxic cells making them less sensitive to NK-mediated killing. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of autophagy restored granzyme B levels and reverted the resistance of hypoxic cells in vitro. Our results highlight autophagy as a critical factor in modulating NK-mediated anti-tumor immune response. We have validated this concept in vivo by showing that targeting autophagy significantly improved NK-mediated tumor shrinking in breast and melanoma models. This study provides a cutting-edge advance in our understanding of how hypoxia-induced autophagy impairs NK-mediated lysis and paves the way for formulating more effective NK-based antitumor therapy by combining autophagy inhibitors.
