Sequence variability of human erythroviruses present in bone marrow of Brazilian patients with various parvovirus B19-related hematological symptoms.

ABSTRACT: The presence of erythrovirus infections was investigated by PCR with bone marrow samples of patients with various parvovirus B19-related hematological symptoms. Erythrovirus DNA was found in 17.3% (12/69) of patients. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that five strains cluster with genotype 1, one clusters with genotype 2, and six cluster with genotype 3. Our study is the first to document the presence of the three erythrovirus genotypes in Brazil.

High-sensitivity virus and mycoplasma screening test reveals high prevalence of parvovirus B19 infection in human synovial tissues and bone marrow.

Project description:BackgroundLatent microorganism infection is a safety concern for the clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of this study is to investigate the frequencies and sensitivities of the latent virus and mycoplasma infections in synovium, bone marrow, peripheral blood cells, and blood plasma and cultured synovial MSCs.MethodsTotal DNA and RNA of the synovium (n = 124), bone marrow (n = 123), peripheral blood cells (n = 121), plasma (n = 121), and 14-day cultured synovial MSCs (n = 63) were collected from patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty or anterior ligament reconstruction after written informed consents were obtained. The multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were designed to quantitatively measure the representative genomes of 13 DNA viruses, 6 RNA viruses, and 9 mycoplasmas. Multi-spliced mRNA detection and virus spike test were also performed to demonstrate the sensitivity of synovial MSCs to the candidate pathogens.ResultsIn synovium and bone marrow, the positive rates of parvovirus B19 genome were significantly higher than in peripheral blood cells (18.7% and 22% vs. 0.8%, respectively). Multi-alignment analysis of amplified and sequenced viral target genes showed the proximity of the parvovirus B19 gene from different tissue in the same patients. Synovial MSCs cultured for 14 days were positive for virus infection only in two patients (2/62 = 3%). Parvovirus B19 multi-spliced mRNAs were not detected in these two samples. Virus spike test demonstrated the sensitivity of synovial MSCs to herpes simplex virus (HSV)1 and cytomegalovirus (CMV), but not to parvovirus B19.ConclusionThis study revealed a relatively high incidence of latent parvovirus B19 in synovium and bone marrow tissue.

Keeping pace with parvovirus B19 genetic variability: a multiplex genotype-specific quantitative PCR assay.

Project description:Three genotypes have been identified within the parvovirus B19 species (B19V), and such genetic diversity may have significant implications for the development of molecular detection assays. In the present study, B19V genetic variability has been examined on a subset of genomic sequences available in the NCBI nucleotide database, and a quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay able to detect, differentiate, and quantify all viral variants has been established. The designed primers and probes have been used for the development of alternative detection formats, based on a combined use of intercalating dye and genotype-specific hydrolysis probes. The qPCR assay analytical performances have been determined on the 1st WHO International Reference Panel for Parvovirus B19 Genotypes. The developed qPCR protocols allow for the detection of genotypes 1 to 3 with equal accuracy, and with a limit of detection (LOD) of 200 IU/ml. A comparison of routine performance was carried out with respect to a previously established assay specifically validated on B19V genotype 1. For 130 clinical samples analyzed, 126 showed concordant results (31 positive and 97 negative), while 4 showed discordant results. Overall, the genotype-specific qPCR assay showed a sensitivity of 93.94% and a specificity of 97.94%, with an agreement rate of 96.92%. The proposed qPCR assay and the alternative protocols developed, each with robust performance, may allow choice with respect to operational systems and diagnostic requirements and might contribute to provide a more reliable diagnostic service and epidemiological surveillance of B19 virus.

A Functional Minigenome of Parvovirus B19.

Project description:Parvovirus B19 (B19V) is a human pathogenic virus of clinical relevance, characterized by a selective tropism for erythroid progenitor cells in bone marrow. Relevant information on viral characteristics and lifecycle can be obtained from experiments involving engineered genetic systems in appropriate in vitro cellular models. Previously, a B19V genome of defined consensus sequence was designed, synthesized and cloned in a complete and functional form, able to replicate and produce infectious viral particles in a producer/amplifier cell system. Based on such a system, we have now designed and produced a derived B19V minigenome, reduced to a replicon unit. The genome terminal regions were maintained in a form able to sustain viral replication, while the internal region was clipped to include only the left-side genetic set, containing the coding sequence for the functional NS1 protein. Following transfection in UT7/EpoS1 cells, this minigenome still proved competent for replication, transcription and production of NS1 protein. Further, the B19V minigenome was able to complement B19-derived, NS1-defective genomes, restoring their ability to express viral capsid proteins. The B19V genome was thus engineered to yield a two-component system, with complementing functions, providing a valuable tool for studying viral expression and genetics, suitable to further engineering for purposes of translational research.

The structure of human parvovirus B19.

Project description:Human parvovirus B19 is the only parvovirus known to be a human pathogen. The structure of recombinant B19-like particles has been determined to approximately 3.5-A resolution by x-ray crystallography and, to our knowledge, represents the first near-atomic structure of an Erythrovirus. The polypeptide fold of the major capsid protein VP2 is a "jelly roll" with a beta-barrel motif similar to that found in many icosahedral viruses. The large loops connecting the strands of the beta-barrel form surface features that differentiate B19 from other parvoviruses. Although B19 VP2 has only 26% sequence identity to VP3 of adeno-associated virus, 72% of the C(alpha) atoms can be aligned structurally with a rms deviation of 1.8 A. Both viruses require an integrin as a coreceptor, and conserved surface features suggest a common receptor-binding region.

Aplastic anemia induced by human parvovirus B19 infection in an immunocompetent adult male without prior hematological disorders: A case report.

Project description:Introduction and importanceParvovirus B19 (B19V) is a human pathogenic virus of clinical relevance. Human parvovirus B19 infection can be asymptomatic or frequently associated with erythema infectiosum, or joint symptoms in healthy adults. Aplastic anemia as a complication of human parvovirus infection is rare in healthy adults without prior hematological disorders.Case presentationWe report a case of severe aplastic anemia in a 22-years-old immunocompetent adult male without any hematological dysfunction who presented with periumbilical pain, loose watery stools, and fever with chills and rigor. General examination, laboratory investigation, and peripheral blood smear revealed anemia with leucopenia and relative lymphocytosis, thrombocytopenia, and severe neutropenia. Bone marrow biopsy revealed hypocellular bone marrow with maturation arrest at the proerythroblast stage with intranuclear inclusions and no blast and hematopoietic cells replaced by mature adipocytes in marrow spaces. Parvovirus B19 infection was confirmed by viral serology and polymerase chain reaction.Clinical discussionAsymptomatic or mild infection occurs most often when B19 affects immunocompetent adults. However, this is the fourth case reporting severe aplastic anemia in immunocompetent adults and the first case reported in immunocompetent adult males. The patient was admitted for close monitoring and supportive management, which effectively improved the patient's clinical condition, and discharged with a strict follow-up schedule in an outpatient setting.ConclusionThus, acute infection with this virus must be considered a cause of acquired aplastic anemia even in individuals without underlying disease.

Bone Marrow Senescence and the Microenvironment of Hematological Malignancies.

Project description:Senescence is the irreversible arrest of cell proliferation that has now been shown to play an important role in both health and disease. With increasing age senescent cells accumulate throughout the body, including the bone marrow and this has been associated with a number of age-related pathologies including malignancies. It has been shown that the senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP) creates a pro-tumoural environment that supports proliferation and survival of malignant cells. Understanding the role of senescent cells in tumor development better may help us to identify new treatment targets to impair tumor survival and reduce treatment resistance. In this review, we will specifically discuss the role of senescence in the aging bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. Many BM disorders are age-related diseases and highly dependent on the BM microenvironment. Despite advances in drug development the prognosis particularly for older patients remains poor and new treatment approaches are needed to improve outcomes for patients. In this review, we will focus on the relationship of senescence and hematological malignancies, how senescence promotes cancer development and how malignant cells induce senescence.

Substitution rate and natural selection in parvovirus B19.

Project description:The aim of this study was to estimate substitution rate and imprints of natural selection on parvovirus B19 genotype 1. Studied datasets included 137 near complete coding B19 genomes (positions 665 to 4851) for phylogenetic and substitution rate analysis and 146 and 214 partial genomes for selection analyses in open reading frames ORF1 and ORF2, respectively, collected 1973-2012 and including 9 newly sequenced isolates from Serbia. Phylogenetic clustering assigned majority of studied isolates to G1A. Nucleotide substitution rate for total coding DNA was 1.03 (0.6-1.27) x 10-4 substitutions/site/year, with higher values for analyzed genome partitions. In spite of the highest evolutionary rate, VP2 codons were found to be under purifying selection with rare episodic positive selection, whereas codons under diversifying selection were found in the unique part of VP1, known to contain B19 immune epitopes important in persistent infection. Analyses of overlapping gene regions identified nucleotide positions under opposite selective pressure in different ORFs, suggesting complex evolutionary mechanisms of nucleotide changes in B19 viral genomes.

Analysis of bone marrow supernatant neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and hematological parameters in hematological malignancy.

Project description:BackgroundNeutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a urine biomarker related to acute renal injury. Whereas several studies have evaluated NGAL levels in hematological malignancy, using peripheral blood (PB). Recently, bone marrow (BM) NGAL level was reported to be higher than PB NGAL level in individuals with hematological malignancy, suggesting that BM NGAL would reflect BM microenvironment better than PB NGAL. We measured BM NGAL levels in patients with hematological malignancy, comparing those with NGAL levels in normal BM. We evaluated the association of BM NGAL with hematological parameters including neutrophil counts.MethodsBM samples were collected from 107 patients who underwent BM examination. Immunoassays were used to assess NGAL levels. Data on hematological parameters were collected from medical records. Intergroup comparisons were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis H test and Pearson chi-square test. Single and multiple regression analyses were performed to analyze the relationships.ResultsThe independent factors that affected the BM NGAL level were neutrophil counts and BM band neutrophil%, while neutrophil count was the main influencing factor. The acute myeloid leukemia (n = 18) and myelodysplastic syndrome (n = 25) groups showed statistically lower BM NGAL levels than patients with normal BM. The myeloproliferative neoplasm group (n = 34) showed higher BM NGAL levels than patients with normal BM, but this difference was not statistically significant. Neutrophil counts and BM band neutrophil% showed intergroup patterns similar to those of BM NGAL levels.ConclusionBM NGAL was related to neutrophil count and BM band neutrophil%, showing different levels according to hematological malignant disease entities.
