The role of tumor-produced chemokines in the growth of malignancies remains poorly understood. We retrieved an in vivo growing MCA205 fibrosarcoma and isolated tumor cell clones that produce both CXCL9/monokine induced by IFN-gamma (Mig) and CXCL10/IFN-gamma-inducible protein 10 following stimulation with IFN-gamma and clones that produce IFN-gamma-inducible protein 10 but not Mig. The Mig-deficient variants grew more aggressively as cutaneous tumors in wild-type mice than the Mig-producing tumor cells. The growth of Mig-expressing, but not Mig-deficient, tumor cells was suppressed by NK and T cell activity. Transduction of Mig-negative variants to generate constitutive tumor cell production of Mig resulted in T cell-dependent rejection of the tumors and in induction of protective tumor-specific CD8(+) T cell responses to Mig-deficient tumors. The results indicate a critical role for tumor-derived Mig in T cell-mediated responses to cutaneous fibrosarcomas and suggest the loss of Mig expression as a mechanism used by tumor cells to evade these responses.
