In this study, we demonstrate that, the topical application of a temperature-sensitive gel containing caerin 1.1 and 1.9 peptides significantly reduces the tumour weight of HPV 16 E6/E7 transformed TC-1 tumour bearing mice via improving the tumour microenvironment (TME) when compared with untreated tumour or a control peptide-containing gel. We use single cell transcriptomics and TMT10 plex-labelling proteomics to quantify changes in cellular activity across different cell types within the TME. We show that caerin 1.1/1.9 gel increased immune activating macrophages, modulated the heterogeneity of NK and dendritic cells to be more pro-inflammatory, and increased numbers of activated CD8+ T cells. Proteomic profiling demonstrated higher innate immune responses, especially the positive regulations of interferon-alpha/beta secretion and response to cytokine stimulus in the caerin gel groups. Further, computational integration of the proteome with the single cell transcriptome consistently suggested more activated T cells and NK cells with the treatment of caerin peptide gel.
