Immune surveillance is critical to prevent tumorigenesis. Gliomas evade immune attack, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. We show that glioma cells can sustain growth independent of immune system constraint by reducing Notch signaling. Loss of Notch activity in a mouse model of glioma impairs MHC-I and cytokine expression and curtails the recruitment of anti-tumor immune cell populations in favor of immunosuppressive tumor-associated microglia/macrophages (TAMs). Depletion of T cells simulates Notch inhibition and facilitates tumor initiation. Furthermore, Notch-depleted glioma cells acquire resistance to interferon-γ and TAMs re-educating therapy. Decreased interferon response and cytokine expression by human and mouse glioma cells correlate with low Notch activity. These effects are paralleled by upregulation of oncogenes and downregulation of quiescence genes. Hence, suppression of Notch signaling enables gliomas to evade immune surveillance and increases aggressiveness. Our findings provide insights into how brain tumor cells shape their microenvironment to evade immune niche control.
