Long-Term Analysis of Resilience of the Oral Microbiome in Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients.

ABSTRACT: Stem cell transplantation (SCT) is associated with oral microbial dysbiosis. However, long-term longitudinal data are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to longitudinally assess the oral microbiome in SCT patients and to determine if changes are associated with oral mucositis and oral chronic graft-versus-host disease. Fifty allogeneic SCT recipients treated in two Dutch university hospitals were prospectively followed, starting at pre-SCT, weekly during hospitalization, and at 3, 6, 12, and 18 months after SCT. Oral rinsing samples were taken, and oral mucositis (WHO score) and oral chronic graft-versus-host disease (NIH score) were assessed. The oral microbiome diversity (Shannon index) and composition significantly changed after SCT and returned to pre-treatment levels from 3 months after SCT. Oral mucositis was associated with a more pronounced decrease in microbial diversity and with several disease-associated genera, such as Mycobacterium, Staphylococcus, and Enterococcus. On the other hand, microbiome diversity and composition were not associated with oral chronic graft-versus-host disease. To conclude, dysbiosis of the oral microbiome occurred directly after SCT but recovered after 3 months. Diversity and composition were related to oral mucositis but not to oral chronic graft-versus-host disease.

Project description:Premature cardiovascular mortality is increased in long-term allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) survivors, but little information exists regarding subclinical cardiovascular dysfunction in this population. We compared peak oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]O2peak), a prognostic cardiovascular marker, and its determinants between long-term allo-SCT survivors and non-cancer controls. Fourteen allo-SCT survivors (mean ± SD, 44 ± 15 years, 50% male, median time since allo-SCT: 6.5 years [range 2-20]) and 14 age- and sex-matched controls (46 ± 13 years, 50% male) underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing to quantify [Formula: see text]O2peak. Resting echocardiography (left-ventricular ejection fraction and strain), exercise cardiac MRI (peak cardiac and stroke volume index [CIpeak, SVIpeak]), biochemistry (hemoglobin, troponin-I, B-natriuretic peptide), dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (lean [LM] and fat [FM] mass, percent body fat [%BF]) and Fick-principal calculation (arteriovenous oxygen difference) were also performed. Survivors exhibited impaired [Formula: see text]O2peak as compared with controls (25.9 ± 5.1 vs. 33.7 ± 6.5 ml kg-1 min-1, p = 0.002), which coincided with reduced CIpeak (6.6 ± 0.8 vs. 8.6 ± 1.9 L min-1 m-2; p = 0.001) secondary to reduced SVIpeak (48 ± 4 vs. 61 ± 8 ml m-2; p < 0.001) rather than chronotropic impairment, and higher %BF (difference, 7.9%, p = 0.007) due to greater FM (5.8 kg; p = 0.069) and lower LM (4.3 kg, p = 0.25). All other measures were similar between groups. Despite comparable resting cardiac function and biomarker profiles, survivors exhibited reduced [Formula: see text]O2peak and exercise cardiac function and increased %BF relative to controls. These results highlight potential therapeutic avenues and the utility of exercise-based cardiovascular assessment in unmasking cardiovascular dysfunction in allo-SCT survivors.
