Persistent Type I Interferon Signaling in the Brain of People with HIV under ART with Cognitive Impairment


ABSTRACT: To examine the mechanisms that drive persistent neuroinflammation, we analyzed the proteome from 27 HIV-infected brains on antiretroviral therapy (ART) with different stages of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) by tandem mass tag quantitative proteomics. We observed that 73.3% of the upregulated proteins were from immune pathways, among which 36.4% were within the type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that IFN-I signaling persisted in the brain microglia isolated from people with HIV (PWH) on suppressive ART. During the acute HIV infection, IFN-I signaling was activated in astrocytes in the brain organoids while it remained activated in the HAND brains even with undetectable HIV. HAND progression was associated with human endogenous retroviruses-W (HERV-W) Env expression in the HAND brains on suppressive ART. When overexpressed, HERV-W Env induced IFNβ in astrocytes. These findings point to a persistent IFN-I activation in the glial cells in HAND brains, suggesting a mechanistic link of sustained neuroinflammation with the prevalence of cognitive impairment in HAND receiving effective ART.

To better understand the molecular mechanism that drives neuroinflammation, we analyzed the protein profiles of 27 brains from HIV with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART), including various stages of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND), and compared them to 9 HAND-negative controls. We found that most of the proteins that were increased-about 66.7%-were involved in immune response pathways. Of these, 23.3% were specifically related to type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling, which  ...[more]
