Natural Clearance of Prolonged VDPV Infection in a Child With Primary Immunodeficiency Disorder.

ABSTRACT: The emergence of immunodeficiency-associated vaccine-derived polioviruses (iVDPV) from children with primary immunodeficiency disorders poses a threat to the eradication program. Herein, we report a patient with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), identified as a prolonged serotype 3 iVDPV (iVDPV3) excreter with 13 VDPV3 isolates and a maximum of 10.33% nucleotide divergence, who abruptly cleared infection after a period of 2 years. Occurrence of an episode of norovirus diarrhea associated with increased activated oligoclonal cytotoxic T cells, inverse CD4:CD8 ratio, significantly elevated pro-inflammatory cytokines, and subsequent clearance of the poliovirus suggests a possible link between inflammatory diarrheal illness and clearance of iVDPV. Our findings suggest that in the absence of B cells and sufficiently activated T/NK cells, macrophages and other T cells may produce auto-inflammatory conditions by TLR/RLR ligands expressed by previous/ongoing bacterial or viral infections to clear VDPV infection. The study highlights the need to screen all the patients with combined immunodeficiency for poliovirus excretion and intermittent follow-up of their immune parameters if found positive, in order to manage the risk of iVDPV excretion in the polio eradication endgame strategy.

Project description:Objective: To compare the period of viral clearance and its influencing factors after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection between patients with lymphoma and lung cancer. Methods: We retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients with lymphoma and lung cancer (118 cases) diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection and hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University between 1 December 2022, and 15 March 2023. Finally, 87 patients with prolonged virus clearance times were included and divided into lymphoma (40 cases) and lung cancer (47 cases) groups. We used the Kaplan-Meier method to draw a negative turn curve. We performed a univariate analysis of the prolongation of virus clearance time and a Cox regression model for multivariate analysis. Results: The median times for viral clearance in the lung cancer and lymphoma groups were 18 (95% confidence interval [CI] 15.112-20.888) and 32 (95%CI 27.429-36.571) days, respectively. Log-rank analysis showed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.048), and the lymphocyte count in the lymphoma group was lower than that in the lung cancer group (p = 0.044). We used the Cox regression model to conduct a multivariate analysis, which revealed that in lymphoma patients, the interval between the time of diagnosis and the time of SARS-CoV-2 infection <24 months (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.182, 95%CI: 0.062-0.535, p = 0.02), an interval between the last anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatment and the time of SARS-CoV-2 infection of <2 months (HR: 0.101, 95%CI: 0.029-0.358, p < 0.001), and a decrease in peripheral blood lymphocyte levels (HR: 0.380, 95%CI: 0.179-0.808, p = 0.012) were independent risk factors for prolonged viral clearance time. Conclusion: Patients with lymphoma combined with SARS-CoV-2 infection had a longer virus clearance time than did patients with lung cancer. Moreover, the lymphocyte count in the lymphoma group was lower than that in the lung cancer group; therefore, the immune status of patients with lymphoma is lower than that of patients with lung cancer. An interval between lymphoma diagnosis and SARS-CoV-2 infection of <2 years, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatment within the past 2 months, and a decrease in lymphocyte levels in the peripheral blood prolonged the virus clearance time in the patients in this study.

Project description:The goal of this project is todetermine if natural killer (NK) cells could be able to control HIV replication and reduce or eliminate viral reservoirs leading to HIV cure or a functional cure. Despite thirty years of work and significant progress, HIV infection continues to be an incurable disease. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has significantly decreased the morbidity and mortality, but lifelong treatment is merely suppressive and does not cure HIV/AIDS. This is because of the existence of a reservoir of viral DNA+ (vDNA+) in cells of the lymphoid tissues with an intact provirus that is thought capable of initiating new rounds of HIV replication (i.e. latency). In addition to this inducible reservoir data suggest ongoing low-level virus replication and persistence in lymphatic tissues of some patients that is related to suboptimal drug levels in these tissues. Strategies are needed that can address both issues. NK cells are innate immune effectors that recognize virally infected targets through a cadre of activating and inhibitory receptors but become dysfunctional in HIV infected people. Strikingly, African green monkeys (AGM) and sooty mangabeys mount a strong control of viral replication in lymph node follicles shortly after the viremia peak that lasts throughout infection. Several mechanisms have been proposed to be implicated in the strong control of viral replication in natural host’s lymph nodes, such as NK cell-mediated control. Indeed, we have recently shown that NK cells could migrate into the b cells follicles in a CXCR5 dependent manner and thus participate to the elimination of viral replication. Thus the purpose of this study is too compare at the transcriptomic level different subset of NK cell isolated from blood and peripheral lymph node of chronically infected AGM to identify a transcriptomic signature which could be linked to an efficient control of SIV replication. This results could then provide a new aproche which could be exploited to generate functional NK cells against HIV in infected patients.
