<jats:p>Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is an immune checkpoint molecule widely expressed on the surface of cancer cells and is an attractive immunotherapeutic target for numerous cancer cell types. However, patients with endometrial cancer derive little clinical benefit from immune checkpoint blockade therapy because of their poor response rate. Despite the increasingly important function of PD-L1 in tumor immunology, the mechanism of PD-L1 localization on endometrial cancer cell surfaces is largely unknown. We demonstrated the contribution of the ezrin, radixin, and moesin (ERM) family, which consists of scaffold proteins that control the cell surface localization of several transmembrane proteins to the localization of PD-L1 on the cell surface of HEC-151, a human uterine endometrial cancer cell line. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoprecipitation analysis revealed the colocalization of all the ERM with PD-L1 on the cell surface, as well as their protein–protein interactions. The RNA-interference-mediated knockdown of ezrin, but not radixin and moesin, significantly reduced the cell surface expression of PD-L1, as measured by flow cytometry, with little impact on the PD-L1 mRNA expression. In conclusion, among the three ERM proteins present in HEC-151 cells, ezrin may execute the scaffold function for PD-L1 and may be mainly responsible for the cell surface localization of PD-L1, presumably via the post-translational modification process.</jats:p>
