Seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients in an HBV endemic area in Brazil.

Project description:BackgroundHepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are a common cause of complications in liver disease and immunological impairment among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. The aim of this study was to assess the seroprevalence of HBV and HCV and their correlation with CD4+ T-cells among HIV-infected patients in an HBV endemic area.MethodsA cross-sectional observational and retrospective study was carried out in a reference center in Southern Brazil between January 2005 and December 2016. Socio-demographic data were collected by using a structured questionnaire. Serological tests and analysis of CD4+ T-cell count levels were performed using standard procedures.ResultsThe seroprevalence of HIV-HBV, HIV-HCV, and HIV-HBV-HCV coinfections was 3.10%, 3.10%, and 0.16%, respectively. At baseline, anti-hepatitis B surface and anti-hepatitis B core antigens were detected in 46.27% and 16.74% of HIV-monoinfected patients and in 31.25% and 21.86% of the HIV-HCV coinfected patients, respectively. The median CD4+ T-cell count at baseline in the HIV-monoinfected group was higher than that in the HIV-coinfected groups, but without statistical significance. The median CD4+ T-cell count and the CD4/CD8 ratio were significantly higher in HIV-HBV and HIV-HCV groups after 24 months of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) compared to the pre-cART values. When comparing patients with HIV-HBV and HIV-HCV on cART, CD4+ T-cell recovery was more rapid for HIV-HBV patients.ConclusionAlthough the analyzed region was endemic for HBV, the prevalence of HIV-HBV and HIV-HCV coinfection was lower than the rate found in the general population of Brazil. HBV and HCV had no significant impact on CD4+ T-cell counts among HIV-infected patients at baseline.

Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Genotype Mixtures, Viral Load, and Liver Damage in HBV Patients Co-infected With Human Immunodeficiency Virus.

Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection is possible in patients who are positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) since both share similar transmission routes. Furthermore, through the continuous risk of exposure, they potentially can be infected by mixtures of distinct HBV genotypes which can result in the presence of two or more genotypes in a single patient. This study aimed to specify the frequency of mixtures of HBV genotypes and their potential clinic importance in HIV-infected Mexican patients. HBV infection was assessed by serological testing and molecular diagnostics. HBV mixtures were detected by multiplex PCR and DNA sequencing. Liver fibrosis was evaluated using transitional elastography, the Aspartate aminotransferase to Platelets Ratio Index score, and Fibrosis-4 score. Among 228 HIV-infected patients, 67 were positive for HBsAg. In 25 HBV/HIV co-infected patients, 44 HBV genotypes were found: H (50.0%, 22/44), G (22.7%, 10/44), D (15.9%, 6/44), A (9.1%, 4/44), and F (2.3%, 1/44). Among these, 44.0% (11/25) were single genotype, 36.0% (9/25) were dual and 20.0% (5/25) were triple genotype. The most frequent dual combination was G/H (44.4%, 4/9), while triple-mixtures were H/G/D (60.0%, 3/5). The increase in the number of genotypes correlated positively with age (Spearman's Rho = 0.53, p = 0.0069) and negatively with platelet levels (Spearman's Rho = - 0.416, p = 0.039). HBV viral load was higher in triply-infected than dually infected (31623.0 IU/mL vs. 1479.0 IU/mL, p = 0.029) patients. Triple-mixed infection was associated with significant liver fibrosis (OR = 15.0 95%CI = 1.29 - 174.38, p = 0.027). In conclusion, infection with mixtures of HBV genotypes is frequent in HIV patients causing significant hepatic fibrosis related to high viral load, especially in triple genotype mixtures.

Project description:BackgroundImmunomodulators and Nucleotide analogues have been used globally for the dealing of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, the development of drug resistance is a major limitation to their long-term effectiveness.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to characterize the hepatitis B virus reverse transcriptase (RT) protein variations among Iranian chronic HBV carriers who did not receive any antiviral treatments.Materials and methodsHepatitis B virus partial RT genes from 325 chronic in active carrier patients were amplified and directly sequenced. Nucleotide/amino acid substitutions were identified compared to the sequences obtained from the database.ResultsAll strains belonging to genotype D.365 amino-acid substitutions were found. Mutations related to lamivudine, adefovir, telbivudine, and entecavir occurred in (YMDD) 4% (n = 13), (SVQ) 17.23% (n = 56), (M204I/V + L180M) 2.45% (n = 8) and (M204I) 2.76% (n = 9) of patients, respectively.ConclusionsRT mutants do occur naturally and could be found in HBV carriers who have never received antiviral therapy. However, mutations related to drug resistance in Iranian treatment-naïve chronic HBV patients were found to be higher than other studies published formerly. Chronic HBV patients should be monitored closely prior the commencement of therapy to achieve the best regimen option.

Propionibacterium acnes Enhances the Immunogenicity of HIVBr18 Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Vaccine.

Project description:Immunization of BALB/c mice with HIVBr18, a DNA vaccine containing 18 CD4+ T cell epitopes from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), induced specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses in a broad, polyfunctional and persistent manner. With the aim of increasing the immunogenicity of this vaccine, the effect of Propionibacterium acnes as an adjuvant was evaluated. The adjuvant effects of this bacterium have been extensively demonstrated in both experimental and clinical settings. Herein, administration of two doses of HIVBr18, in the presence of P. acnes, increased the proliferation of HIV-1-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes, the polyfunctional profile of CD4+ T cells, the production of IFN-γ, and the number of recognized vaccine-encoded peptides. One of the bacterial components responsible for most of the adjuvant effects observed was a soluble polysaccharide extracted from the P. acnes cell wall. Furthermore, within 10 weeks after immunization, the proliferation of specific T cells and production of IFN-γ were maintained when the whole bacterium was administered, demonstrating a greater effect on the longevity of the immune response by P. acnes. Even with fewer immunization doses, P. acnes was found to be a potent adjuvant capable of potentiating the effects of the HIVBr18 vaccine. Therefore, P. acnes may be a potential adjuvant to aid this vaccine in inducing immunity or for therapeutic use.

Small molecule RIG-I agonist serves to adjuvant broad, multifaceted influenza virus vaccine immunity

Project description:We identified a small molecule compound, KIN1148, that directly binds RIG-I to drive IRF3 and NF B activation and expression of innate immune genes, cytokines and chemokines. KIN1148 activates RIG-I in an RNA- and ATP-independent manner and does not induce a canonical antiviral interferon (IFN) gene program traditionally associated with RIG-I activation. When administered in combination with a vaccine against influenza A virus (IAV), KIN1148 induces both neutralizing antibody and broadly cross-protective IAV-specific T cell responses compared to vaccination alone, which induces poor responses. In this study, we demonstrate that KIN1148 directly engages RIG-I to activate IRF3- and NFB-dependent innate immune responses, making it the first small molecule RIG-I agonist to be identified. Biochemical studies show that KIN1148 binds to RIG-I to drive RIG-I self-oligomerization and downstream signaling activation in an RNA- and ATP-independent manner. We further find that transcriptional programs induced by KIN1148 treatment exhibit shared and unique signatures to that induced by other methods of RIG-I activation, including Sendai virus (SeV) infection and PAMP RNA transfection. KIN1148 adjuvants a split virus (SV) vaccine at suboptimal dose to protect mice from lethal challenge with a recombinant highly pathogenic avian H5N1 influenza virus, A/Vietnam/1203/2004.

mRNA Therapeutic Vaccine for Hepatitis B Demonstrates Immunogenicity and Efficacy in the AAV-HBV Mouse Model.

Project description:Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) develops in millions of patients per year, despite the availability of effective prophylactic vaccines. Patients who resolve acute HBV infection develop HBV-specific polyfunctional T cells accompanied by neutralizing antibodies, while in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), immune cells are dysfunctional and impaired. We describe a lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-formulated mRNA vaccine, optimized for the expression of HBV core, polymerase, and surface (preS2-S) antigens with the aim of inducing an effective immune response in patients with CHB. Prime and prime/boost vaccination with LNP-formulated mRNA encoding for core, pol, and/or preS2-S dosing strategies were compared in naive C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. Immune responses were assessed by IFN-γ ELISpot, intracellular cytokine staining (ICS), and ELISA for antibody production, whereas anti-viral efficacy was evaluated in the AAV-HBV mouse model. The mRNA vaccine induced strong antigen-specific polyfunctional T cell responses in these mouse models, accompanied by the emergence of anti-HBs and anti-HBe antibodies. After three immunizations, the antigen-specific immune stimulation resulted in up to 1.7 log10 IU/mL reduction in systemic HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), accompanied by a transient drop in systemic HBeAg, and this was observed in 50% of the AAV-HBV-transduced mice in the absence of additional modalities such as adjuvants, HBsAg reducing agents, or checkpoint inhibitors. However, no treatment-related effect on viremia was observed in the liver. These results warrant further optimization and evaluation of this mRNA vaccine as a candidate in a multimodal therapeutic regimen for the treatment of chronic HBV infection.

A model for testing the immunogenicity of simian immunodeficiency virus and simian-human immunodeficiency virus vaccine candidates in mice.

Project description:HIV-1 Gag protein represents a promising target of cellular immunity-based vaccines due to its immunogenicity and high conservation among diverse viral subtypes. Development of novel and effective Gag-targeted vaccine candidates inducing CD8(+) and CD4(+) T cell responses requires large scale pre-clinical testing in a small animal model. In this report, the MHC class I and II-restricted epitopes in the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Gag protein recognized in C57Bl/6 and Balb/c mice were determined and characterized. In addition, using the newly defined epitopes, the relationship is described between the amount of plasmid DNA, volume of inoculate, and the extent of ensuing immune responses following intramuscular DNA immunization.

A dual TLR agonist adjuvant enhances the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of the tuberculosis vaccine antigen ID93.

Project description:With over eight million cases of tuberculosis each year there is a pressing need for the development of new vaccines against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Subunit vaccines consisting of recombinant proteins are an attractive vaccine approach due to their inherent safety compared to attenuated live vaccines and the uniformity of manufacture. Addition of properly formulated TLR agonist-containing adjuvants to recombinant protein vaccines enhances the antigen-specific CD4(+) T cell response characterized by IFN-γ and TNF, both of which are critical for the control of TB. We have developed a clinical stage vaccine candidate consisting of a recombinant fusion protein ID93 adjuvanted with the TLR4 agonist GLA-SE. Here we examine whether ID93+GLA-SE can be improved by the addition of a second TLR agonist. Addition of CpG containing DNA to ID93+GLA-SE enhanced the magnitude of the multi-functional TH1 response against ID93 characterized by co-production of IFN-γ, TNF, and IL-2. Addition of CpG also improved the protective efficacy of ID93+GLA-SE. Finally we demonstrate that this adjuvant synergy between GLA and CpG is independent of TRIF signaling, whereas TRIF is necessary for the adjuvant activity of GLA-SE in the absence of CpG.

Human pegivirus (HPgV) infection in Ghanaians co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV).

Project description:Human pegivirus (HPgV) is a positive single-stranded RNA virus in the Flaviviridae family. Phylogenetic analysis reveals the presence of multiple HPgV genotypes with distinct geographic locations. HPgV is of interest because of its potential beneficial impact on HIV disease progression. Despite this, the effects of HPgV in the context of other viral infections, such as hepatitis B virus (HBV), are poorly understood, and data from resource-limited settings are scarce. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional analysis of HPgV in HIV/HBV co-infected patients in Ghana. Sera from 100 HIV/HBV co-infected individuals were evaluated for HPgV RNA, and the genotype determined by sequencing the 5' untranslated region. HPgV RNA was detected in 27 samples (27%). Of these, 26 were genotyped successfully with 23 belonging to HPgV genotype 1 and 3 belonging to HPgV genotype 2. The presence of HPgV RNA had no statistically significant impact on CD4 cell count or HBV DNA titers in the HIV/HBV co-infected patients. However, there was a trend towards decreased HBV DNA levels in HPgV RNA-positive patients with CD4 cell count < 200 (p = 0.0626). HPgV co-infection is common in Ghana. The effect of HPgV on HIV or HBV disease among HIV/HBV co-infected patients was minimal. However, decreased HBV DNA levels in HPgV RNA-positive patients with low CD4 cell counts highlight the need for prospective studies of HPgV in HIV and hepatitis co-infected patients, especially in those with advanced HIV disease, to study further the effects of HPgV on liver disease.
