Project description:Background. HIV-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy (HIV/ART) experience higher levels of non-AIDS morbidity than uninfected people, which is believed to be driven by inflammation that persists despite viral suppression. Elevations in plasma cytokines, coagulation markers and both innate and adaptive immune cell activation during untreated infection are often incompletely reversed by ART and associated with these morbidities. Monocytes/macrophages play a central role in many of these complications including neurocognitive and cardiovascular disease. Results. We investigated monocyte surface markers, gene expression and plasma cytokines in 11 HIV-infected older individuals (median age 53 years) who started therapy with low CD4 counts (median 129 cells/ul), with elevated hsCRP (≥2mg/L) despite long-term ART (median 7.4 years), along with age, gender, race and smoking status-matched controls. Major monocyte subsets (based on CD14/CD16/CD163) were not different from controls, but surface levels differed for CD163 (p=0.022), PD1 (p=0.015) and a trend for tissue factor (p=0.098). As a group, HIV/ART subjects had elevated levels of plasma CCL2 (MCP-1; p=0.0001), CXCL9 (MIG; p=0.04) and sIL2R (p=0.015), which were highly correlated, whereas sCD14 and several other markers were not significantly elevated. However, principal component analysis of soluble markers revealed that about half of HIV/ART subjects clustered with controls, whereas the remainder were distinct, driven by IL-10, CCL11, CXCL10, CXCL11 as well as CCL2, CXCL9 and sIL2R. Outlier subjects were significantly older than those who clustered with controls. Gene expression analysis unexpectedly revealed downregulation in HIV/ART monocytes of multiple genes linked to immune functions including inflammation, immune cell development and cell-cell signaling. Conclusions. These results reveal a novel pattern of immune dysregulation involving both aberrant inflammation and monocyte dysfunction, which suggests complex mechanisms linking monocytes and HIV/ART comorbidities.

Project description:The development of biomarkers that can predict viral rebound following discontinuation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in HIV-1-infected humans would be an important advance in HIV-1 cure research. In a prior study, we initiated ART in 20 rhesus macaques on days 0, 1, 2, and 3 following SIVmac251 infection prior to plasma viremia1. Following 6 months of suppressive ART, we discontinued ART and observed viral rebound in 9 of 20 animals. Here we show that transcriptomic and proteomic signatures of inflammation and immune activation in peripheral blood during ART suppression predicted viral rebound following ART discontinuation. Higher levels of proinflammatory and cellular immune activation pathways, including TNF, IL-1, IL-6, monocyte, and T cell activation signaling pathways, correlated with viral rebound following ART discontinuation. Immune modulatory IL-10 and TGF-b signaling also correlated with viral rebound. We then validated these candidate biomarkers of viral rebound in a second cohort of SIV-infected, ART-suppressed macaques. Taken together, these data suggest that persistent upregulation of inflammatory and immune activation pathways despite suppressive ART may represent a peripheral blood biomarker signature of the rebound-competent viral reservoir. The development of interventions that target the viral reservoir and modulate this signature may open new avenues in HIV-1 cure research.

Project description:In study NCT00594880, we successfully administered weekly doses of pegylated interferon-α-2a (Peg-IFN-α2a) with antiretroviral therapy (ART) for 5 weeks, before continued Peg-IFN-α2a monotherapy to 12 weeks (primary endpoint) in chronic HIV-infected subjects. Subjects maintaining HIV viral load <400 copies/ml by primary endpoint were defined as responders. We now describe innate immune correlates and transcriptional profiles associated with viral control and decrease in integrated HIV DNA after Peg-IFN-α2a immunotherapy. Peripheral blood samples were obtained prior to Peg-IFN-α2a administration (ART), after 5 weeks of ART+Peg-IFN-α2a dual treatment, and after 12 weeks of Peg-IFN-α2a monotherapy. Cell subset modulation, natural killer cell (NK) function and signaling, as well as inflammatory mediators and gene expression were assessed. Results were analyzed using R.2.5.1 or MATLAB 7.10.0. Five weeks of ART+Peg-IFN-α2a preserved the frequency of immune subsets and NK cytotoxicity, while increased the levels of inflammatory mediators, and decreased cell-responsiveness to in vitro IFN-α re-stimulation. Gene expression analysis showed that induction of host restriction factors after ART+Peg-IFN-α2a was not solely predictive of a virologic response, and revealed a 108 gene signature that identified subjects who did not modulate genes after ART+Peg-IFN-α2a. A 29 gene signature along with higher NK cell activation and IFN-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10) levels on ART, as well as higher in vitro responses to IFN-γ-induced NK cytotoxicity, and decrease in the frequency of NK bearing inhibitory receptors [i.e. killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor, two domains, long cytoplasmic tail 1 (KIR2DL1) or KIR2DL2/DL3] and C-C chemokine receptor type 7+ (CCR7) myeloid dendritic cells after ART+Peg-IFN-α2a distinguished responders from non-responders. Reductions in integrated HIV DNA after immunotherapy were associated with expression patterns of genes that are associated with activated cell-mediated response and NK cytotoxicity. In summary, innate activation and NK cell cytotoxicity are identified as correlates of HIV control and reduction after Peg-IFN-α2a immunotherapy in ART-suppressed subjects.

Project description:ObjectiveInflammation may contribute to brain white matter health in people living with HIV who report cognitive symptoms despite adherence to combination antiretroviral therapy and viral suppression. We explored relationships between diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) metrics of white matter, plasma biomarkers of immune activation, and cognitive function in the HIV-infected population.DesignRetrospective study of older adults living with HIV who are combination antiretroviral therapy adherent, virally suppressed, and self-report cognitive symptoms.MethodsMRI, blood draws, and standardized neuropsychological test scores were collected from HIV-infected individuals. DTI metrics (fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, radial diffusivity, axial diffusivity) and plasma biomarkers (soluble CD163, soluble CD14, neopterin, IFN ?-induced protein 10, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1) were quantified. Statistical analysis explored associations between biomarker levels or neuropsychological test scores and DTI metrics using region of interest analyses and a voxelwise approach.ResultsA total of 43 participants with median (interquartile range) age of 64 (62-66 years), CD4 cell count of 600 (400-760 cell/?l) who were all virally suppressed (<100 copies/ml) were selected. Higher levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 associated with lower fractional anisotropy and higher mean diffusivity (P?<?0.05) across white matter tracts including corpus callosum, corona radiata, and superior longitudinal fasciculus. Higher neopterin associated with higher mean diffusivity in the genu of corpus callosum, and higher soluble CD14 associated with lower fractional anisotropy in the bilateral superior corona radiata (P?<?0.05). Worse global performance and speed domain scores associated with higher mean diffusivity and lower fractional anisotropy, and worse executive domain scores associated with lower fractional anisotropy (P?<?0.05).ConclusionElevated inflammatory plasma biomarkers link to white matter abnormalities among virally suppressed individuals. DTI abnormalities associate to cognitive performance. We conclude that inflammatory processes impact clinically relevant brain health indices despite viral suppression.

Project description:Impact of CD8 depletion on peripheral CD4+ T cells transcriptome during ART-treated SIV infection of rhesus macaques. Analysis of CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, and NK cell transcriptomes following administration of HIV/SIV latency reversing agent IL-15 superagonist N-803 in ART-suppressed SIV infected rhesus macaques. Methods: RNA-Seq of sorted CD4+ T cells from SIV-infected, ART-suppressed rhesus macaques before intervention with the anti-CD8a depleting antibody MT807R1 and then again on day 3, week 2, and week 4 following the start of intervention. Some animals also had an intervention that includes four weekly administrations of the IL-15 superagonist complex N-803 initiated at the time of CD8 depletion. Methods: RNA-Seq of sorted CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells from SIV-infected, ART-suppressed rhesus macaques before intervention with four weekly administrations of the IL-15 superagonist complex N-803, then again on day 3, week 2, and week 4 following the start of intervention. Methods: RNA from sorted cells was collected and extracted and DNA was digested. Libraries were prepared and normalized, pooled, and clustered on a flow cells for sequencing. RNAseq data were aligned to the MacaM v7.8 assembly of the Indian rhesus macaque genome. To identify pathways differentially modulated, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA)34 was performed on the ranked transcript lists using 1000 phenotype permutations and random seeding. Gene sets used included the MSigDB H (hallmark) gene sets
