Sleep deprivation is one of concomitant symptoms of cancer patients, particularly those with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The potential effect of sleep deprivation on tumor progression and underlying mechanisms remain to be fully investigated. Using a sleep-deprived tumor-bearing mouse model, we found that sleep deprivation altered immune cell composition and regulated pro-tumoral M2 macrophage polarization by the sympathetic nervous system. Furthermore, we identified a role of catecholaminergic neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) in influencing NSCLC metastasis. Clinical analyses revealed a correlation between sympathetic-related indicators and poor prognosis. Mechanistically, our findings indicate that sleep deprivation facilitates the polarization of pro-tumoral macrophages by upregulating β2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2), which subsequently enhances the expression of Kruppel-like transcription factor 4 (KLF4) through the JAK1/STAT6 phosphorylation pathway. These findings highlight a neuro-immune mechanism linking sleep deprivation to NSCLC metastasis, suggesting that targeting the ADRB2/KLF4 axis could improve outcomes for sleep-deprived NSCLC patients.
