The expression and subcellular localization of immune checkpoint protein PD-L1 have been implicated to play an important role in cancer immunotherapy. In a recent paper published in Cell Research, Xie et al. report that promoting mitochondrial distribution of PD-L1 through targeting the ATAD3A-PINK1-mitophagy axis is a promising strategy to overcome chemoimmunotherapy resistance.Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment with long-lasting responses in multiple types of human cancers, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) such as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies are widely used in clinical practices to activate the immune system to eliminate cancer cells. 1 However, the overall efficacy is still unsatisfactory and only certain cancer types and a portion of patients respond to immunotherapy. 1 Although chemotherapy has been proven to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy in part through increasing PD-L1 expression, only a small portion of patients can benefit from such combination therapy. To date, lots of efforts have been devoted to determining the intrinsic and acquired resistant mechanism so as to improve the clinical response to immunotherapy and combination therapy together with other targeted therapy and/or chemotherapy.
