Project description:Background: Age-related comorbidities remain a burden in People living with HIV (PLWH). DNA methylation may be a link between HIV, aging, and the increased risk of lung comorbidities. Here, we investigate whether bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells of PLWH demonstrate epigenome wide disruptions and advanced epigenetic aging. Methods: BAL cell DNA methylation profiles from 25 PLWH and 16 uninfected controls were tested for differential methylation of transposable elements Alu and LINE-1, a marker of aging. We used a weighted gene correlation network analysis to identify co-methylation networks associated with HIV and age. We tested the effect of HIV on DNA methylation using a robust linear model. An enrichment analysis was conducted to identify differentially methylated pathways (false discovery rate <0.10). Results: The BAL cells of PLWH were marked by global hypomethylation in both Alu and LINE-1 elements. Six co-methylated CpG networks were identified that were significantly associated with age; of these, the red module was significantly differentially methylated in PLWH and enriched pathways associated with HIV, Ras signaling, T cell receptors, and bacterial invasion of epithelial cells. We identified 6,428 differentially methylated sites associated with HIV. Conclusions: We have shown here for the first time that alterations in the DNA methylation of BAL cells (mainly macrophages) in the lung HIV show in a pattern of advanced aging. In conjunction with our findings in blood cells and airway cells, this study strongly support that HIV may contribute to increase the risk of lung comorbidities through the epigenetic regulation of aging.

Project description:Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with exposure to repetitive head impacts, which is susceptible in elderly people with declined mobility, athletes of full contact sports, military personnel and victims of domestic violence. It has been pathologically diagnosed in brain donors with a history of repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI), but cannot be clinically diagnosed for a long time. By the continuous efforts by neuropathologists, neurologists and neuroscientists in recent 10 years, an expert consensus for the diagnostic framework of CTE was proposed in 2021 funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. The new consensus contributes to facilitating research in the field. However, it still needs to incorporate in-vivo biomarkers to further refine and validate the clinical diagnostic criteria. From this, a single-center, observational cohort study has been being conducted by Tianjin Medical University General Hospital since 2021. As a pilot study of this clinical trial, the present research recruited 4 pairs of gender- and age-matched rmTBI patients with healthy subjects. Their blood samples were collected for exosome isolation, and multi-omics screening to explore potential diagnostic biomarkers in blood and its exosomes.

Project description:In this study we performed data-independet mass-spectrometry analysis of blood plasma collected from a cohort consisting of people living with HIV-1, people living with HIV-2, and HIV seronegative individuals. The data was used to infer signs of damage to a wide array of tissues and cell types.

Project description:Immune activation in people living with HIV on anti-retroviral therapy is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. To identify whether perturbation of immunological pathways persist at systems level, we compared genome-wide whole blood transcriptomes from 26 people living with HIV on long-term anti-retroviral therapy with 12 HIV-negative healthy controls. All participants were Caucasian male adults recruited from London, UK. People living with HIV were on anti-retroviral therapy for a median of 8.5 years (interquartile range 3-16 years). They had undetectable plasma HIV viral load (<40 copies/ml) and median circulating CD4 counts of 703 cells/µl (interquartile range 491-841 cells/µl).
