Project description:Objective: To evaluate the effect of short-term type I IFN treatment on the latent viral reservoir in SIV-infected rhesus macaques on ART; Methods: We infected twelve RMs intrarectally with 10,000 TCID of SIVmac239. After 6 weeks of infection, all RMs started a three-class, four-drug ART regimen. Once viral loads were consistently undetectable, six animals were administered 1 dose of pegylated IFN-α2a per week for 4 weeks with each weekly intramuscular application being 6 µg/kg.

Project description:Interleukin (IL)-10 is an immunosuppressive cytokine that signals through STAT3 to regulate T follicular helper cell (TFH) differentiation and germinal center formation, which we propose acts as a determinant of HIV/SIV persistence. In SIV-infected macaques, levels of IL-10 in plasma and lymph node (LN) are induced by infection and not normalized with ART. During chronic infection, plasma IL-10 and transcriptomic signatures of IL-10 signaling were significantly correlated with the cell-associated SIV-DNA content within LN CD4+ memory subsets, including TFH, and predicted the frequency of CD4+ TFH and their cell-associated SIV-DNA content during ART, respectively. Notably, in ART-treated RMs, cells harboring SIV-DNA by DNAscope were preferentially found in the LN B-cell follicle in close proximity to IL-10. Finally, we demonstrate that the in vivo neutralization of soluble IL-10 in ART-treated, SIV-infected macaques significantly reduces B cell follicle maintenance and, by extension, cellular sites of viral persistence, including LN TFH and memory CD4+ T-cells expressing PD-1 and CTLA-4. Thus, these data support a role for IL-10 in maintaining a pool of target cells in lymphoid tissue that serve as a niche for viral persistence. Targeting IL-10 signaling to impair CD4+ T-cell survival and improve antiviral immune responses may represent a novel approach to limit viral persistence in ART-suppressed people living with HIV.

Project description:Unlike HIV infection, which progresses to AIDS absent suppressive anti-retroviral therapy (ART), nonpathogenic infections in natural hosts, such African green monkeys (AGMs), are characterized by a lack of gut microbial translocation and robust secondary lymphoid Natural Killer (NK) cell responses resulting in absence of chronic inflammation and limited SIV dissemination in lymph nodes (LN) B-cell-follicles, respectively. In a pathogenic infection model (i.e. ART-treated, SIVmac239-infected rhesus macaques; RMs), sequential Interleukin (IL)-21 and interferon (IFN)-alpha therapy generated terminally-differentiated blood NK cells (NKG2a/clowCD16+) with potent HLA-E-restricted activity in response to SIV-ENV peptides in contrast to control RMs, where less differentiated, IFN-gamma+ NK cells predominated. The frequency and cytolytic activity of NKG2a/clowCD16+ NK cells correlated with a reduction of replication-competent SIV in LN during ART and viral rebound delay following analytical treatment interruption. These data demonstrate that AGM-like NK cell differentiation profiles can be rescued in RMs to promote viral clearance in tissues.

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:HIV/SIV-associated periodontal disease (gingivitis/periodontitis) (PD) represents a major comorbidity affecting HIV patients on anti-retroviral therapy. Employing a systems biology approach, we report molecular changes underlying PD and its modulation by phytocannabinoids [delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)] in uninfected and SIV-infected rhesus macaques (RMs) treated with vehicle (VEH/SIV) or THC (THC/SIV). VEH/SIV but not THC/SIV RMs showed significant enrichment of genes linked to anti-viral defense, interferon-beta, NFkB, RIG-1, and JAK-STAT signaling. We focused on the anti-microbial DUOX1 and immune activation marker IDO1 that were reciprocally regulated in gingiva of VEH/SIV RMs. Both proteins localized to the gingival epithelium and CD163+ macrophages, and showed differential expression in the gingiva of THC/SIV and VEH/SIV RMs. Additionally, inflammation-associated miR-21, miR-142-3p, miR-223, and miR-125a-5p showed significantly higher expression in the gingiva of VEH/SIV RMs. In human primary gingival epithelial cells, miR-125a-5p post-transcriptionally downregulated DUOX1 and THC inhibited IDO1 protein expression through a cannabinoid receptor-2 mediated mechanism. Interestingly, THC/SIV RMs showed relatively reduced plasma levels of kynurenine, kynurenate, and the neurotoxic quinolinate compared to VEH/SIV RMs. Most importantly, THC blocked HIV/SIV-induced depletion of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, and reduced Gammaproteobacteria abundance in saliva. Reduced IDO1 protein expression was associated with significantly (p<0.05) higher abundance of Prevotella, Lactobacillus (L. salivarius, L. buchneri, L. fermentum, L. paracasei, L. rhamnosus, L. johnsonii) and Bifidobacteria and reduced abundance of the pathogenic Porphyromonas cangingivalis and Porphyromonas macacae. These translational findings suggest that phytocannabinoids could help reduce gingival/systemic inflammation and salivary dysbiosis in ART naïve and treated HIV individuals.

Project description:Objective: Determine how admnistration of type I IFN antagonist influences the expression levels of interferon stimulated genes (ISG) during ART-treated or untreated chronic SIV infection. Methods: SIVmac251 infectected animals on or off ART received 3.5mg/kg pasylated-IFN-Iant two or three times a week from week 16 to 24 post-infection. RNA was rextracted from PBMC collected at several timepoints around IFN-Iant trearment and analyzed by RNA sequencing to compare transcription between IFN-Iant or placebo animals. Results: ISG, which are involved in control of virus replication, were increased upon SIV challenge and reduced by ART. Administration of IFN-Iant to ART-treated animals resulted in further reduction of ISG expression. Blocking IFN-I signaling in ART-untreated animals resulted in the most prominent reduction of ISG expression. Conclusion: These findings indicate that administration of an antagonist during ART-treated and untreated chronic SIV infection significantly impact IFN-I signalling.
