A two-gene signature for diagnosis of tuberculosis in persons with advanced HIV

ABSTRACT: Background: Tuberculosis (TB) among persons living with HIV (PLWH) poses diagnostic challenges. Although several transcriptional signatures have recently been identified as promising tool for TB diagnosis, data are limited in persons with advanced HIV. Methodology: Reads were aligned to the human transcriptome (GRCh38 version 100), comprising both mRNA and ncRNA, with Salmon v1.2.0. A Random Forest algorithm with “leave-one-out” cross-validation was applied in the variance stabilizing transformation gene expression. The identified biomarkers were compared to previous TB transcriptional signatures using the Area Under the Curve (AUC). Results: Functional analysis indicated that common upregulated pathways in TB/HIV patients were associated with Toll-like receptor cascades and neutrophil degranulation. A machine learning decision tree algorithm identified the expression values from RAB20 and INSL3 as most informative for classifying TB status in PLWH. Only these two genes were able to correctly classify all samples.

Epigenetic impairment and blunted transcriptional response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis of alveolar macrophages from persons living with HIV (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Persons living with HIV (PLWH) are at increased risk of tuberculosis (TB). HIV-associated TB is mainly the result of recent infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) followed by rapid progression to disease. Alveolar macrophages (AM) are the first cells of the innate immune system that engage Mtb, but how HIV and antiretroviral therapy (ART) impact on the anti-mycobacterial response of AM is not known. In this study AM were challenged in vitro with Mtb, and their epigenetic and transcriptomic responses were determined for PLWH receiving ART, control subjects who were HIV-free (HC) and subjects who received pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with ART to prevent HIV infection. Compared to HC subjects’ response to Mtb, we showed that AM isolated from PLWH and PrEP subjects displayed substantially weaker transcriptomic response and no significant changes in their chromatin state. These findings revealed a previously unknown adverse effect of ART.

INTEGRATIVE MULTI-OMICS REVEAL A TWO-ANALYTE BLOOD-BASED SIGNATURE FOR TB DIAGNOSIS IN ADVANCED HIV

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) accounts for disproportionate morbidity and mortality among persons living with HIV (PLWH). Conventional methods of TB diagnosis, including smear microscopy and Xpert MTB/RIF, have lower sensitivity in PLWH. Novel high-throughput approaches, such as miRNAomics and metabolomics, may advance our ability to diagnose subclinical and difficult to diagnose TB, especially in very advanced HIV. We conducted a case-control study leveraging REMEMBER, a multi-country, open-label randomized controlled trial comparing 4-drug empiric standard TB treatment with isoniazid preventive therapy in PLWH initiating ART with CD4 cell counts <50 cells/uL. Twenty-three cases of incident TB were site-matched with 32 controls to identify miRNAs, cytokines/chemokines, and metabolites associated with the development of newly diagnosed TB in PLWH. Differentially expressed miRNA analysis revealed 11 altered miRNAs with a fold change higher than ±1.4 in cases relative to controls (p<0.05). Differentially altered metabolite analysis showed no significant alterations in metabolites between cases and controls. We found higher TNFα and IP-10/CXCL10 in cases (p=0.011, p=0.0005), and higher MDC/CCL22 in controls (p=0.0072). A decision tree algorithm identified gamma-glutamylthreonine and hsa-miR-215-5p as the optimal variables to classify incident TB cases (AUC 0.965). hsa-miR-215-5p, which targets genes in the TGF-β signaling pathway, was downregulated in cases. Gamma-glutamylthreonine, a breakdown product of protein catabolism, was less abundant in cases. To our knowledge, this is one of the first uses of a multi-omics approach to identify incident TB in a severely immunosuppressed PLWH study.

Antiretroviral treatment induced decrease in immune activation contributes to reduced susceptibility to tuberculosis in HIV-TB co-infected persons

Project description:Antiretroviral treatment (ART) reduces the risk of developing active tuberculosis (TB) in HIV co-infected persons. We aimed to investigate the mechanisms of ART-mediated prevention of TB in HIV and TB co-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART), recruited in Khayelitsha, South Africa. RNA was extracted from whole blood collected in TempusTM Blood RNA tubes at day 0 and at 1, 3 and 6 months of ART. We first performed a pilot RNAseq experiment of 12 samples (3 patients at 4 timepoints) for 50 million reads to assess if samples with lower quality and/or quantity will still yield meaningful outputs and the minimum number of reads required for sufficient coverage. This was followed by a second RNAseq experiment of 35 samples with sufficient quality: 11 from day 0 and 24 from 6 months of ART, 8 of which are paired. However, only n=6 samples from day 0 and n=6 samples from 6 months of ART could be analyzed. Results indicated reduced immune activation at 6 months of ART compared to day 0 with significant fall in the Hallmark Interferon alpha, Interferon gamma and IL-6-JAK-STAT-signalling pathway genes. These results were supported by similar changes in soluble protein markers in the plasma. Overall, our data indicates that ART- induced decrease in immune activation may contribute to reduced susceptibility to tuberculosis in HIV-TB co-infected persons.

Single-cell analysis of adipose tissue T cells in diabetic persons with HIV reveals high proportions of clonally expanded CMV-like CD4+ T cells with cytotoxic RNA transcriptomes

Project description:Persons with HIV have a disproportionate burden of metabolic disease, including type 2 diabetes. We hypothesized that the accumulation of chronically activated T cells in the adipose tissue of HIV+ persons is a central mechanism promoting local macrophage activation, impaired adipocyte function, and the development of HIV-associated glucose intolerance. Prior studies of immune activation and HIV-associated metabolic disease have only measured circulating T cell subsets. In contrast, in our study we recruited a longitudinal cohort of HIV+ patients on antiretroviral therapy ranging from insulin sensitive to overtly diabetic, in addition to HIV-negative diabetic controls, to identify potential mechanistic linkages between adipose-resident T cell cytokine signaling, adipose tissue inflammation, and glucose intolerance in HIV+ persons. This study may also provide further insight into the role of T cells in the development of glucose intolerance in HIV-negative patients.

Genome-wide transcriptional profiling of HIV positive and negative adults with active tuberculosis, latent TB infection and other diseases

Project description:The study aimed to define transcriptional signatures for detection of active TB (TB) compared to latent TB infection (LTBI) as well as to other diseases (OD) with similar clinical phenotypes in patients with and without HIV in two African adult populations. Transcriptional signatures were identified that distinguished active TB from LTBI, active TB from other diseases, and active TB from both LTBI and other diseases in HIV+/- patients. Adults were recruited from Cape Town, South Africa (n=300) and Karonga, Malawi (n=237) who were either HIV+ or HIV - with either active TB, LTBI or OD. Blood was collected into PAX gene tubes (PreAnalytiX). Total RNA integrity was assessed using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Palo Alto, CA). Labeled cRNA was hybridized to Illumina Human HT-12 Beadchips. Data were analysed in R.
