A systematic review and meta-analysis of enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISPOT) assay for BK polyomavirus immune response monitoring after kidney transplantation. J Clin Virol 2021; 140:104848. [PMID: 33979739 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcv.2021.104848] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Revised: 04/12/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BK virus (BKV) infection after kidney transplantation can cause BKV nephropathy (BKVAN) resulting in graft dysfunction and allograft loss. The treatment for BKVAN is reduction of the immunosuppressive load which increases the risk of kidney transplant rejection. There is no biomarker to monitor BKV activity besides BK viral load. The value of the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Spot (ELISPOT) assay as a tool to monitor the recipient's anti-BKV immune response after transplantation was investigated systematically. Electronic databases, including MEDLINE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched for studies of ELISPOT evaluating the immune response against BKV. BKV status was categorized as "active BKV infection" and as "resolving BKV infection". Random-effects model meta-analysis was performed to determine the diagnostic performance of the ELISPOT assay, after stratifying patients into groups based on positive and negative ELISPOT results. One-hundred twenty-seven articles were identified of which nine were included. Patients with negative ELISPOT had an increased risk of having active BKV replication (odds ratio of 71.9 (95%-CI 31.0-167.1). Pooled sensitivity was 0.95 (95%-CI 0.89-0.98) and specificity was 0.88 (95%-CI 0.78-0.94). The standardized mean difference of the number of IFN-γ producing cells between patients with active BKV infection compared with patients who had resolving BKV infection was -2.09 (95%-CI -2.50, -1.68). The ELISPOT assay is a useful tool for BKV risk assessment and in combination with BKV load may support clinicians in guiding immunosuppressive therapy in patients with BKV replication.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a silent disease caused by low bone mineral density and is complicated by fractures. This study was designed to examine the differentiation of uterine stem cell-derived osteoprogenitor cells (UOPCs) both in vitro and in vivo, assessing their effectiveness in treating osteoporosis. CD271+/CD45- UOPCs were isolated from the endometrial tissue of inbred Balb/c mice through magnetic activated cell sorting. Stem cell differentiation assays were used for CD271+/CD45- UOPCs in vitro. In vivo, the UOPCs were implanted into mouse osteoporosis models through tail-vein injection for 8 weeks. Osteogenic differentiation was examined by X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-labeled UOPCs, obtained from C57BL/6-Tg (ACTb-EGFP) 1Osb/J mice, were used to assess cell survival in the osteoporosis model. The levels of osteogenic markers were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In vitro, UOPCs were able to form into typical spheres and various differentiations. In vivo, implantation of UOPCs into osteoporosis model significantly increased bone mineral densities and bone microstructure parameters. The levels of a biochemical marker of bone metabolism, Semaphorin-3A, increased significantly. However, levels of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand decreased. Immunofluorescence staining of osteoporosis mice injected with green fluorescent protein+ UOPCs showed their survival for up to 7 days. In conclusion, stem cells with osteogenic differentiation potential can be isolated from uterine or endometrial tissue. These UOPCs can stably proliferate and differentiate in vitro or in vivo, which can inhibit bone resorption and osteoclast marker expression. In vivo, UOPCs significantly improved reduction in bone density caused by reduced estrogen levels. Such cell transplantation approach is potentially useful in the treatment of osteoporosis.
