The CD20 antigen is an ideal target of immunotherapy because of its stable and uniform expression among B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). In fact, monoclonal antibodies targeting CD20 have greatly changed the therapeutic landscape of B-cell malignancies, especially indolent lymphomas including mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)[1]. Resistance to the first-in-class CD20 antibody rituximab is not frequent but is an extremely important clinical issue. Although several mechanisms have been proposed [2], loss of CD20 expression is undoubtedly one of the most straightforward and common causes of rituximab resistance. Previous studies have implicated epigenetic silencing [3], CD20 gene mutations [4], and trogocytosis by phagocytes [5] as mechanisms underlying CD20 downregulation. Here, we report autophagic degradation of CD20 as a novel mechanism of rituximab resistance. Recently, we encountered a case of MCL, in which bone marrow (BM) infiltrates were defective for CD20 expression at diagnosis and resistant to rituximab-based treatment, whereas lymph node (LN) lesions expressed CD20 strongly and responded well to the same regimen. Other hallmarks of MCL, such as cyclin D1 and CD5, were expressed at equivalent levels in LN and BM cells of diagnostic samples (Fig. 1 a). This observation is consistent with a previous report by Foran et al.[6], wherein 6 out of 25 patients (24%) with B-cell NHL, mostly indolent types, exhibited the complete loss or tremendous reductions in CD20 expression in BM-infiltrated CD79α-positive lymphoma cells after rituximab monotherapy. In contrast, CD20 expression was uniformly strong in the LNs of these patients even after treatment. Similarly, surface CD20 levels were lower in BM infiltrates than in circulating tumor cells in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL)[7]. Marquez et al.[8] demonstrated that interaction with BM stromal cells (BMSCs) readily decreased the expression of CD20 in BCLL cells in vitro but did not address the mechanisms behind their finding.To investigate the mechanisms of selective CD20 downregulation in the BM, we established luciferaseexpressing sublines of MCL cell lines HBL-2, Jeko-1, and SMCH-16 [9], and cultured them on a confluent feeder layer of BMSC lines UBE6T-7 [10] and StromaNKtert [11] or human tonsil-derived follicular dendritic cell line HK [12] to reproduce adherent conditions (Supplementary Fig. S1a). Coculture with BMSCs, but not follicular dendritic cells, significantly decreased the expression of CD20 on MCL cells (Fig. 1 b) and impeded the complement-dependent cytotoxicity of rituximab toward MCL cells (Fig. 1 c). Autophagy was hypothesized as a mechanism of the BMSC-mediated CD20 downregulation, because p62, a pivotal mediator of selective autophagy [13], was stained more weakly in BM-infiltrated MCL cells than in LN lesions in
