Abstract
Dolutegravir is an integrase inhibitor and is recommended by the World Health Organization as the preferred first-line and second-line human immunodeficiency virus treatment in all populations. Excessive weight gain associated with dolutegravir-based regimens is an emerging issue; however, the long-term metabolic consequences of this effect have not been fully understood. Growing evidence shows that this leads to a higher incidence of hyperglycemia, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome, along with elevated cardiovascular risk. Dolutegravir-based regimens, also associated with greater adipocyte differentiation and greater expression of markers associated with lipid storage, continue to be a problem among patients living with human immunodeficiency virus. The mechanisms by which certain antiretroviral therapy agents differentially contribute to weight gain remain unknown. Some clinical investigators speculate that dolutegravir could interfere with central nervous system appetite regulation (melanocortin-4 receptor) and insulin signaling, or may have better penetration of adipose tissue where they could exert a direct impact on adipose tissue adipogenesis, fibrosis, and insulin resistance. This review summarizes our current understanding of weight gain and fat changes associated with dolutegravir and its possible secondary metabolic comorbidities.

Vascul Pharmacol 2024; 155:107288.

Abstract
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has markedly increased life expectancy in people with HIV (PWH) but has also resulted in an increased prevalence of cardiometabolic disorders, whose etiopathology remains ill-defined. Notably, the respective contribution of cART and HIV-derived proteins to obesity and vascular alterations remain poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the individual and combined effects of HIV-proteins and of the integrase strand transfer inhibitor Dolutegravir (DTG) on body composition and vascular reactivity. Male wildtype (WT) and HIV transgenic (Tg26) mice, received DTG or vehicle for 12 weeks. Viral proteins expression in Tg26 mice lowered fat mass, increased heat production, and induced a 2-fold increase in brown adipose tissue (BAT) uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression. DTG increased the expression of markers of adipogenesis in adipocytes in culture, but also reduced heat production and BAT UCP1 and UCP3 expression in Tg26 mice. DTG increased food intake, fat percentage and protected from lean mass reduction in Tg26 mice only. However, DTG did not increase body weight in either WT or Tg26 mice. Viral protein expression reduced acetylcholine (endothelium)-mediated relaxation by 14% in mesenteric arteries preconstricted with phenylephrine. However, DTG did not impair nor improve endothelium-dependent relaxation. Together, these data indicate that DTG's effects on food intake, adipogenesis and energy expenditure are insufficient to increase body weight, even in the presence of HIV-proteins, suggesting that body weight gain in PWH involves additional factors likely including other cART components and pre-existing comorbidities. Moreover, these data rule out DTG as a source of vascular disorders in PWH.

Abstract
People living with HIV have a 1.5- to 2-fold increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Despite treatment with highly effective antiretroviral therapy, people living with HIV have chronic inflammation that makes them susceptible to multiple comorbidities. Several factors, including the HIV reservoir, coinfections, clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), microbial translocation, and antiretroviral therapy, may contribute to the chronic state of inflammation. Within the innate immune system, macrophages harbor latent HIV and are among the prominent immune cells present in atheroma during the progression of atherosclerosis. They secrete inflammatory cytokines such as IL (interleukin)-6 and tumor necrosis-α that stimulate the expression of adhesion molecules on the endothelium. This leads to the recruitment of other immune cells, including cluster of differentiation (CD)8+ and CD4+ T cells, also present in early and late atheroma. As such, cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems contribute to both systemic inflammation and vascular inflammation. On a molecular level, HIV-1 primes the NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) inflammasome, leading to an increased expression of IL-1β, which is important for cardiovascular outcomes. Moreover, activation of TLRs (toll-like receptors) by HIV, gut microbes, and substance abuse further activates the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. Finally, HIV proteins such as Nef (negative regulatory factor) can inhibit cholesterol efflux in monocytes and macrophages through direct action on the cholesterol transporter ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette transporter A1), which promotes the formation of foam cells and the progression of atherosclerotic plaque. Here, we summarize the stages of atherosclerosis in the context of HIV, highlighting the effects of HIV, coinfections, and antiretroviral therapy on cells of the innate and adaptive immune system and describe current and future interventions to reduce residual inflammation and improve cardiovascular outcomes among people living with HIV.

Abstract
HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy alter mitochondrial function, which can progressively lead to mitochondrial damage and accelerated aging. The interaction between persistent HIV reservoirs and mitochondria may provide insight into the relatively high rates of cardiovascular disease and mortality in persons living with HIV. In this review, we explore the intricate relationship between HIV and mitochondrial function, highlighting the potential for novel therapeutic strategies in the context of cardiovascular diseases. We reflect on mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial DNA, and mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein in the context of HIV. Furthermore, we summarize how toxicities related to early antiretroviral therapy and current highly active antiretroviral therapy can contribute to mitochondrial dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and poor clinical outcomes. There is a need to understand the mechanisms and develop new targeted therapies. We further consider current and potential future therapies for HIV and their interplay with mitochondria. We reflect on the next-generation antiretroviral therapies and HIV cure due to the direct and indirect effects of HIV persistence, associated comorbidities, coinfections, and the advancement of interdisciplinary research fields. This includes exploring novel and creative approaches to target mitochondria for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Persons with HIV (PWH) face an increased risk of cardiovascular events due to immune activation, comorbidities, and certain antiretrovirals (ARVs). However, the current cardiovascular risk (CVR) scores are not specifically directed toward PWH. This study aimed to assess the agreement between different predictive CVR scores and explore their relationship with clinical and demographic data in Mexican PWH. A descriptive cross-sectional analysis was conducted in 200 PWH with a mean age of 42 years who were treated at a Mexican urban center from 2017 to 2018. The majority (83%) was on ARV treatment and 79.5% had undetectable viral loads (VLs). Moderate- to high-risk scores were infrequent, with Framingham Risk Score for Hard Coronary Heart Disease scores showing higher values, with very low concordance among all scores. Logistic regression analysis revealed significant associations between the CVR scores and the initial recorded VL, CD4 cell count, and elevated triglyceride levels. However, no associations were found with measures such as body mass index or abdominal circumference. Treatment with integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), particularly first-generation inhibitors, showed strong associations with all predictive scores, notably ASCVD (odds ratio = 7.03, 95% confidence interval 1.67-29.64). The poor concordance among the CVR scores in PWH highlights the need for a specific score that considers comorbidities and ARV drugs. Despite the relatively young age of the participants, significant correlations were observed between INSTI use, initial VL, CD4 cell count, and triglyceride levels, which are factors not considered in the existing risk scores. Regardless of the actual value of the scores, screening for CVR in PWH is recommended.

Abstract
Background: The increased risk of cardio-metabolic disorders associated with people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is of growing importance. Given the broad adoption of integrase strand-transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) as first-line therapy for HIV, additional data are needed regarding the metabolic effects of these regimens. Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess glycemic control in patients started on INSTI-based 3-drug regimens over a 2-year period. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on patients seen in the Brooklyn Hospital Center. Men and nonpregnant, nonlactating women aged 18 years or older with a diagnosis of HIV who were initiated on or switched to an ART consisting of 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) plus an INSTI were included in the analysis. The primary endpoint is change in A1C from baseline (pre-INSTI initiation) to 2 years after initiation. Results: Two hundred fifty-one patients were eligible based on specified inclusion and exclusion criteria. Overall, a statistically significant increase in A1C was seen in all patients started on INSTI-based regimen (95% CI, 0.10-0.36; P < 0.001). Primarily patients on both elvitegravir-based and bictegravir-based regimens saw the most significant increase in A1C: 0.16% (95% CI, 0.04-0.27; P = 0.006) and 0.39% (95% CI, 0.02-0.76; P = 0.038), respectively. Conclusion and Relevance: Integrase strand-transfer inhibitor-based 3-drug ART was associated with a small but statistically significant increase in A1C over a 2-year period, requiring additional monitoring by clinicians.

Abstract
Infections with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) represent one of the greatest health burdens worldwide. The complex pathophysiological pathways that link highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and HIV infection per se with dyslipidemia make the management of lipid disorders and the subsequent increase in cardiovascular risk essential for the treatment of people living with HIV (PLHIV). Amongst HAART regimens, darunavir and atazanavir, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, nevirapine, rilpivirine, and especially integrase inhibitors have demonstrated the most favorable lipid profile, emerging as sustainable options in HAART substitution. To this day, statins remain the cornerstone pharmacotherapy for dyslipidemia in PLHIV, although important drug-drug interactions with different HAART agents should be taken into account upon treatment initiation. For those intolerant or not meeting therapeutic goals, the addition of ezetimibe, PCSK9, bempedoic acid, fibrates, or fish oils should also be considered. This review summarizes the current literature on the multifactorial etiology and intricate pathophysiology of hyperlipidemia in PLHIV, with an emphasis on the role of different HAART agents, while also providing valuable insights into potential switching strategies and therapeutic options.

Abstract
Over the past 4 decades, the clinical care of people living with HIV (PLWH) evolved from treatment of acute opportunistic infections to the management of chronic, noncommunicable comorbidities. Concurrently, our understanding of adipose tissue function matured to acknowledge its important endocrine contributions to energy balance. PLWH experience changes in the mass and composition of adipose tissue depots before and after initiating antiretroviral therapy, including regional loss (lipoatrophy), gain (lipohypertrophy), or mixed lipodystrophy. These conditions may coexist with generalized obesity in PLWH and reflect disturbances of energy balance regulation caused by HIV persistence and antiretroviral therapy drugs. Adipocyte hypertrophy characterizes visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue depot expansion, as well as ectopic lipid deposition that occurs diffusely in the liver, skeletal muscle, and heart. PLWH with excess visceral adipose tissue exhibit adipokine dysregulation coupled with increased insulin resistance, heightening their risk for cardiovascular disease above that of the HIV-negative population. However, conventional therapies are ineffective for the management of cardiometabolic risk in this patient population. Although the knowledge of complex cardiometabolic comorbidities in PLWH continues to expand, significant knowledge gaps remain. Ongoing studies aimed at understanding interorgan communication and energy balance provide insights into metabolic observations in PLWH and reveal potential therapeutic targets. Our review focuses on current knowledge and recent advances in HIV-associated adipose tissue dysfunction, highlights emerging adipokine paradigms, and describes critical mechanistic and clinical insights.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-induced hyperglycemia and diabetes have negative and potentially serious health consequences but can often be unnoticed. METHODS We reviewed the literature searching Medline database for articles addressing drug-induced hyperglycemia and diabetes up to January 31, 2023. We also selected drugs that could induce hyperglycemia or diabetes according official data from drug information databases Thériaque and Micromedex. For each selected drug or pharmacotherapeutic class, the mechanisms of action potentially involved were investigated. For drugs considered to be at risk of hyperglycemia or diabetes, disproportionality analyses were performed using data from the international pharmacovigilance database VigiBase. In order to detect new pharmacovigilance signals, additional disproportionality analyses were carried out for drug classes with more than 100 cases reported in VigiBase, but not found in the literature or official documents. RESULTS The main drug classes found to cause hyperglycemia are glucocorticoids, HMG-coA reductase inhibitors, thiazide diuretics, beta-blockers, antipsychotics, fluoroquinolones, antiretrovirals, antineoplastic agents and immunosuppressants. The main mechanisms involved are alterations in insulin secretion and sensitivity, direct cytotoxic effects on pancreatic cells and increases in glucose production. Pharmacovigilance signal were found for a majority of drugs or pharmacological classes identified as being at risk of diabetes or hyperglycemia. We identified new pharmacovigilance signals with drugs not known to be at risk according to the literature or official data: phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors, endothelin receptor antagonists, sodium oxybate, biphosphonates including alendronic acid, digoxin, sartans, linosipril, diltiazem, verapamil, and darbepoetin alpha. Further studies will be needed to confirm these signals. CONCLUSIONS The risks of induced hyperglycemia vary from one drug to another, and the underlying mechanisms are multiple and potentially complex. Clinicians need to be vigilant when using at-risk drugs in order to detect and manage these adverse drug reactions. However, it is to emphasize that the benefits of appropriately prescribed treatments most often outweigh their metabolic risks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess weight gain associated with treatment switching to INSTI-based regimens in people living with HIV (PLWH) and to determine whether it is accompanied by worsening features of hypertension, dyslipidemia, or hyperglycemia. METHODS In this two-center retrospective observational study, we assessed weight gain and metabolic features in PLWH who switched to an INSTI-based regimen (study group) as compared to patients who remained on a non-INSTI regimen (control group) over a 24-month follow-up period. RESULTS One-hundred seventy-four PLWH were included in the study group, and 175 were included in the control group. The study group gained 2.51 kg ± 0.31 (mean ± standard deviation) over the 2 years of follow-up, while the control group gained 1.1 ± 0.31 kg over the same time course (p < 0.001). INSTI treatment, Caucasian origin, and lower BMI were risk factors associated with excessive weight gain during the 2 years of follow-up. Among metabolic parameters, only glucose levels increased after initiating INSTI-based regimens, although limited to males of African origin (p = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS We observed a mild weight gain after switching to INSTI-based regimens, with no major impact on metabolic parameters over 2 years of follow-up. Longer follow-up might be needed to observe the adverse metabolic effects of INSTI-based regimens. The impact on weight gain should be discussed with every patient before the treatment switch to ensure a balanced diet and physical activity to prevent excessive weight gain that might hamper compliance with ART.

Factors associated with viral load non-suppression among treatment-experienced pre-teenage children living with HIV in Kenya: a nationwide population-based cohort study, 2015-2021. EClinicalMedicine 2024; 68:102454. [PMID: 38333535 PMCID: PMC10850406 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2024.102454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Viral load non-suppression (VLNS) in children is a major public health concern because of attendant HIV disease progression and risk of morbidity and mortality. Based on a nationally representative database we present estimates of the prevalence, trends and factors associated with VLNS in Kenyan pre-teenage children between 2015 and 2021. Methods Kenya National AIDS & STI Control Program's (NASCOP) maintains an early infant diagnosis and viral load (EID/VL) database for all persons living with HIV who are enrolled in the country's primary care clinics for purposes of monitoring progress towards achievement of the 95% viral suppression goals. Participants were eligible if they were children living with HIV (CLHIV), on combination ART (cART) treatment, and ≤12 years old. The modified Mann-Kendall trend test for serially correlated data was used to identify VLNS trends. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) with a logit link was used to assess the effects of covariates on the odds of VLNS (VL ≥1,000 copies/mL) over repeated points in time, allowing for the correlation among the repeated measures. Findings Between January 2015 and December 2021, 508,743 viral load tests were performed on samples collected from 109,682 pre-teenage children. The prevalence of VLNS decreased from 22.9% (95% CI 22.4-23.3) to 12.5% (95% CI 12.1-12.9), p < 0.0001, and mean age increased from 3.1 (4.2) to 8.0 (3.2) years in 2015 and 2021 respectively. A modified Mann-Kendall trend test for serially correlated data denotes a statistically significant decreasing trend (τ = -0.300, p < 0.0001) over the study period. In the multivariable GEE analysis adjusted for covariates, the odds of VLNS decreased by 11% per year during the study period, (GEE-aOR 0.89, 95% CI 0.88-0.90; p < 0.0001). Factors positively associated with VLNS were EFV/NVP-based first-line cART regimen (GEE-aOR 1.74, 95% CI 1.65-1.84, p < 0.0001), PI-based cART regimen (GEE-aOR 1.82, 95% CI 1.72-1.92, p < 0.0001), and children aged 1-3 years (toddlers) (GEE-aOR: 1.84, 95% CI 1.79-1.90, p < 0.0001). On the contrary, DTG-based cART regimen, were negatively associated with VLNS (GEE-aOR 0.70, 95% CI 0.65-0.75, p < 0.0001). Interpretation There is a strong evidence of decreasing viremia between 2015 and 2021. To sustain the decreasing trend, accelerating the switch from the suboptimal EVP/NVP first-line regimen to optimised DTG regimen is warranted.

Divergent effects of the antiretroviral drugs, dolutegravir, tenofovir alafenamide, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, on human adipocyte function. Biochem Pharmacol 2024; 220:116010. [PMID: 38154544 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.116010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
Combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) has been associated with increased body weight accompanied by metabolic alterations in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH). To gain insight into the combined effects of cART components on adipocyte dysfunction, we assessed whether and how treatment of human adipocytes with dolutegravir (DTG) and the nucleotide-analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), alone and in combination, altered biological processes related to adipose tissue dysfunction. DTG, TAF, and TDF were applied to human Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) adipose cells during differentiation (day 10) and ensuing differentiation (day 14). Expression of selected marker genes was determined by qPCR, the release of adipokines and inflammatory cytokines to the culture media was assessed, and cell respiration was measured. Adipogenesis was not altered by the combined treatment of human adipocytes. However, DTG at the highest dose repressed adipogenesis marker genes expression, and TAF and TDF appeared to mitigate this effect. DTG repressed the expression of adiponectin and the release of adiponectin and leptin in differentiating adipocytes, and these effects were mantained in combination with TAF and TDF. DTG plus TAF or TDF on human adipocytes enhanced inflammation and stress and increased the release of proinflammatory cytokines to the culture media. Together, our results show that combined therapy with these drugs can alter inflammation, cellular stress, and fibrosis in human adipocytes. These findings may improve our understanding and management of the effects of cART on body adiposity and metabolic dysregulation in PLWH.

Abstract
Rapid advances in the potency, safety, and availability of modern HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART) have yielded a near-normal life expectancy for most people living with HIV (PLWH). Ironically, considering the history of HIV/AIDS (initially called "slim disease" because of associated weight loss), the latest dilemma faced by many people starting HIV therapy is weight gain and obesity, particularly Black people, women, and those who commenced treatment with advanced immunodeficiency. We review the pathophysiology and implications of weight gain among PLWH on ART and discuss why this phenomenon was recognized only recently, despite the availability of effective therapy for nearly 30 years. We comprehensively explore the theories of the causes, from initial speculation that weight gain was simply a return to health for people recovering from wasting to comparative effects of newer regimens vs prior toxic agents, to direct effects of agents on mitochondrial function. We then discuss the implications of weight gain on modern ART, particularly concomitant effects on lipids, glucose metabolism, and inflammatory markers. Finally, we discuss intervention options for PLWH and obesity, from the limitations of switching ART regimens or specific agents within regimens, weight-gain mitigation strategies, and potential hope in access to emerging antiobesity agents, which are yet to be evaluated in this population.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has long been implicated in fat alterations and weight variations leading to cardiometabolic consequences. Recent largely prescribed antiretrovirals (ARVs) from the integrase-strand-transfer-inhibitor (INSTI) class have been associated with excessive weight gain/obesity in a minority of persons with HIV (PWH). As well, in the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) class, tenofovir-alafenamide (TAF), often replacing tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate (TDF), has been associated with weight gain, a worrying concern in the present worldwide obesogenic environment. The respective role of the different ARV, the risk factors and the mechanisms remain questionable. RECENT FINDINGS The INSTIs dolutegravir (DTG) and bictegravir (BIC) and TAF have a proper effect on weight gain, while efavirenz (EFV) and TDF inhibit it. These effects are reported in ART-naïve PWH, in addition to weight gain resulting from the return to health process, and in ART-controlled PWH. Also, INSTIs induce weight gain in adolescents and excessive weight gain during pregnancy. The effects of INSTIs and TAF are additive. Their trajectory differs. Most of the weight gain is observed during the initial 12-month period.The main risk factors are low CD4+ and high viral load (VL) in ART-naïve PWH, Black race or originating from some African countries and female gender. The role of age and BMI differs between studies. The reversibility of the effect of INSTI and TAF appears limited.Regarding the mechanisms, the INSTIs can directly alter adipose tissue in particular through inhibition of fat beiging, resulting in fat fibrosis and hypertrophy. Macrophage infiltration is decreased. The mechanisms explaining the opposite effects of TDF and TAF remain elusive. SUMMARY The specific impact of DTG, BIC and TAF on weight gain/obesity in PWH is confirmed in different populations independently of the weight limiting effect of EFV and TDF. ART-linked excessive weight gain is uncommon. African origin and female sex are risk factors that need to be considered. The mechanisms are better understood for INSTIs but unknown for TDF/TAF. The reversibility of weight gain/obesity when stopping INSTI or TAF remains limited.

Abstract
Introduction The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions on the prevalence and incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS), and to identify predictors of new MS cases in people living with HIV (PLWH). Methods This cohort study included PLWH followed at the IRCCS San Raffaele, Milan, Italy, with at least one body mass index (BMI) determination during the pre-pandemic period (1 December 2018 to 29 February 2020) and the pandemic period (1 March 2020 to 31 May 2021). MS diagnosis was based on NCEP ATP III 2005 criteria. Univariable Poisson regression model was used to compare MS incidence rates. Univariable mixed linear models estimated the crude mean change in metabolic parameters during each time period. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess risk factors for MS. Results This study included 1,564 PLWH, of whom 460 and 1,104 were with and without a diagnosis of MS, respectively, at the beginning of the pre-pandemic period, with an overall prevalence of MS of 29.4%. During the pre-pandemic period, 528/1,564 PLWH had MS, with a prevalence of 33.8% (95%CI = 31.5%-36.1%), while during the pandemic period, the number of PLWH with a diagnosis of MS increased to 628/1,564, with a prevalence of 40.2% (95%CI 37.8%-42.6%; McNemar's test: p < 0.0001). Similarly, the MS incidence rate increased from 13.7/100 person-years of follow-up (PYFU; 95%CI = 11.7-16.0) in the pre-pandemic period to 18.5/100 PYFU (95%CI = 16.2-21.1) in the pandemic period (p = 0.004), with 201 subjects developing MS during the pandemic period. In addition, we observed a significant increase in the crude mean change during the pandemic period compared with the pre-pandemic period for: total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, plasma glucose, blood pressure, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk score. Finally, after adjustment for HIV risk factors, HBV, HCV, ART duration, duration of virologic suppression and use of INSTIs, age [adjusted hazard ratio (AHR) per 3 years older = 1.12 (95%CI = 1.08-1.17)], sex [AHR female vs. male = 0.62 (95%CI = 0.44-0.87)] and CD4+ cell count [AHR per 100 cells/μL higher = 1.05 (95%CI = 1.01-1.09)] were associated with the risk of MS. Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic affected the metabolic profile of PLWH and increased the prevalence and incidence of MS.

Abstract
Dolutegravir is recommended for all people living with HIV because of its efficacy, high barrier to resistance, favourable safety and tolerability profile, and affordability. Dolutegravir has the highest rates of viral suppression in pregnancy, therefore preventing perinatal HIV transmission. In view of these benefits, particularly for pregnant women, an important question is if dolutegravir is safe in pregnancy. Dolutegravir has been associated with metabolic complications, including weight gain and rare events of hyperglycaemia, that could affect maternal, fetal, and postnatal health. We review the current clinically and experimentally based literature on the implications of dolutegravir use for pregnant women and for developing embryos and fetuses. Possible effects on folate status, energy metabolism, adipogenesis, and oxidative stress are considered. In many instances, insufficient data are available, pointing to the need for additional research in this important area of HIV treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI) are one of the most prescribed drug classes for the treatment of HIV infection worldwide. Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide/ Bictegravir (FTC/TAF/BIC) has been evaluated in randomized clinical trials; few studies have verified tolerability and safety in clinical practice. Our aim was to investigate the metabolic and hepatic safety in a real-life setting of FTC/TAF/BIC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive people living with HIV infection (PLWH) enrolled in the SCOLTA project, switching to or initiating their first antiretroviral treatment with FTC/TAF/BIC were included. PLWH with HBV co-infection were excluded. Metabolic and hepatic variables were collected at T0 and T1, were defined as baseline and 6-month follow-up respectively, and their modifications were analysed using the paired t-test and the analysis of variance. RESULTS Five hundred and thirty-nine PLWH with at least one follow-up visit were included in the analysis. Mean age was 48 years (±12.1), 74% were male, 16.1% were naïve to antiretrovirals (ART). At T1, ART-experienced PLWH showed a significant reduction of total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides, and a slight increase in blood glucose (BG) and ALT. On the contrary, in ART-naïve PLWH blood lipids significantly increased, although with an unaffected TC/high density lipoprotein (HDL)-c ratio, while alanine aminotransferase (ALT) decreased significantly, mainly in those with altered baseline level. The treatment interruptions were 45 (8.4%) over the whole observation period, 13 (2.4%) due to AEs. The most frequent AEs were related to the central nervous system (6 events of depression, insomnia, headache, agitation) and 3 PLWH discontinued the regimen because of grade 1-2 weight gain. CONCLUSIONS In ART-experienced PLWH switching to FTC/TAF/BIC a significant improvement of lipid profile occurred but with significant BG and ALT variation without clinical relevance. In ART-naïve PLWH, blood lipids increased even though lipid profile did not worsen, and a trend towards normalization of liver enzymes was suggested. FTC/TAF/BIC is well tolerated in the real life setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent reports of excessive weight gain in people with HIV (PWH) have raised increasing concerns on the possible increase of diabetes mellitus (DM) risk in course of integrase inhibitors (INSTIs) treatment. In this study, we aimed at describing DM incidence in course of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and identifying the factors associated with new DM onset. DESIGN Observational prospective SCOLTA (Surveillance Cohort Long-Term Toxicity Antiretrovirals) cohort. METHODS All people enrolled in SCOLTA between January 2003 and November 2021 were included. Multivariable Cox regression yielded adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for incident DM. RESULTS 4366 PWH were included, 72.6% male, with mean age 45.6 years, and median CD4 + 460 [interquartile range (IQR) 256-710] cells/mm 3 cells/mm 3 . During the follow up, 120 incident cases of DM occurred (1.26 cases/100 person year-follow up, 95% CI 1.05-1.50).Baseline weight, but not the amount of weight gain, resulted significantly correlated to diabetes incidence (aHR by 1 kg 1.03; 95% CI 1.01-1.04), as well as older age (aHR 1.03 by 1 year; 95% CI 1.01-1.06), being ART-experienced with detectable HIV RNA at study entry (aHR 2.27, 95% CI 1.48-3.49), having untreated high blood pressure (aHR 2.90; 95% CI 1.30-6.45) and baseline blood glucose >100 mg/dl (aHR 5.47; 95% CI 3.82-7.85). Neither the INSTI class nor individual antiretrovirals were associated with an increased risk of DM. CONCLUSIONS Baseline weight, but not weight gain or the ART class, was associated with incident DM in this observational cohort.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Switch to dolutegravir (DTG) in treatment-experienced people living with HIV (PLH) is associated with excess weight gain in some settings; data are limited from rural low-income settings with low obesity prevalence. METHODS In rural Kenya, we conducted a retrospective cohort study at 8 HIV clinics and a single-site prospective cohort study including adults switching to DTG during countrywide transition to DTG/tenofovir DF(TDF)/emtricitabine as first-line HIV treatment. In the retrospective analysis, we used preswitch data to model postswitch weight trajectory had each participant not switched to DTG and contrasted observed vs. predicted postswitch weight. In the prospective analysis, we measured weight post-DTG switch and evaluated predictors of 6-month weight change. RESULTS Our retrospective cohort included 4445 PLH who switched to DTG between 2018 and 2020. Mean 12-month weight change was 0.6 kg preswitch and 0.8 kg postswitch. Among those on TDF throughout (n = 3374; 83% on efavirenz preswitch), 12-month postswitch weight was 0.7 kg more than predicted for women (95% CI: 0.4, 1.0) and similar among men (0.04 kg; 95% CI -0.3, 0.4). In our prospective cohort (n = 135, 100% female), mean 6-month weight change was +0.4 kg (IQR -1.1, 2.0 kg). Predicted gain varied by baseline food insecurity: +1.1 kg (95% CI: 0.34, 1.87) among food secure, -0.09 kg (95% CI -0.71, 0.54) among moderate insecure, and +0.27 kg (95% CI -0.82, 1.36) among severe insecurity. CONCLUSION In contrast to some reports of large weight gain following switch to DTG, we observed small weight increases in women and no weight change in men following DTG switch when on TDF throughout. Weight gain may be attenuated by food insecurity, though was modest even among food secure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) dramatically improved survival in people living with HIV (PLWH) but is associated with weight gain (WG), raising concern for a possible obesity epidemic in PLWH. This scoping review aims to identify the gaps in the existing evidence on WG in PLWH and generate a future research agenda. METHODS This review was conducted according to the methodology for scoping studies and reported according to the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Review checklist. Articles published in English in the last 10 years indexed in Pubmed, WHO Global Index Medicus, or Embase were searched using specific queries focused on WG in PLWH. RESULTS Following the selection process, 175 included articles were reviewed to search for the available evidence on four specific topics: (I) definition of WG in PLWH, (II) pathogenesis of WG in PLWH, (III) impact of ART on WG, (IV) correlation of WG with clinical outcomes. A summary of the data enabled us to identify gaps and clearly define the following research agenda: (I) develop a data-driven definition of WG in PLWH and define noninvasive assessment methods for body weight and fat composition; (II) further investigate the interaction between HIV/cART and immunity, metabolism, and adipose tissue; (III) establish the specific role of individual drugs on WG; (IV) clarify the independent role of WG, cART, HIV, and metabolic factors on clinical events. CONCLUSIONS The proposed research agenda may help define future research and fill the knowledge gaps that have emerged from this review.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076267. [PMID: 37047241 PMCID: PMC10094183 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a non-communicable disease characterized by a cluster of metabolic irregularities. Alarmingly, the prevalence of MetS in people living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and antiretroviral (ARV) usage is increasing rapidly. Insulin resistance is a common characteristic of MetS that leads to the development of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The progression of insulin resistance is strongly linked to inflammasome activation. This study aimed to draw links between the combinational use of Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), Lamivudine (3TC), and Dolutegravir (DTG), and inflammasome activation and subsequent promotion of insulin resistance following a 120 h treatment period in HepG2 liver in vitro cell model. Furthermore, we assess microRNA (miR-128a) expression as a negative regulator of the IRS1/AKT signaling pathway. The relative expression of phosphorylated IRS1 was determined by Western blot. Transcript levels of NLRP3, IL-1β, JNK, IRS1, AKT, PI3K, and miR-128a were assessed using quantitative PCR (qPCR). Caspase-1 activity was measured using luminometry. Following exposure to ARVs for 120 h, NLRP3 mRNA expression (p = 0.0500) and caspase-1 activity (p < 0.0001) significantly increased. This was followed by a significant elevation in IL-1β in mRNA expression (p = 0.0015). Additionally, JNK expression (p = 0.0093) was upregulated with coinciding increases in p-IRS1 protein expression (p < 0.0001) and decreased IRS1 mRNA expression (p = 0.0004). Consequently, decreased AKT (p = 0.0005) and PI3K expressions (p = 0.0007) were observed. Interestingly miR-128a expression was significantly upregulated. The results indicate that combinational use of ARVs upregulates inflammasome activation and promotes insulin resistance through dysregulation of the IRS1/PI3K/AKT insulin signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are a class of antiretroviral therapy (ART) medications with a good tolerability profile and a high genetic barrier to HIV drug resistance. However, several studies report significant weight gain among persons receiving INSTI-based ART regimens compared with other regimens. DESIGN In-vitro model of adipogenesis. METHODS We used 3T3-L1 cells to investigate the effects of the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), alone or in combination with INSTIs: raltegravir (RAL), elvitegravir (ELV), dolutegravir (DTG), and bictegravir (BIC) on adipose differentiation. To monitor adipocyte differentiation, expression levels of PPARɣ and C/EBPα and the intracellular lipid accumulation by Red Oil staining were used. Furthermore, we evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of ER-TR7, a fibroblastic marker, after INSTIs treatment. RESULTS Compared with control, INSTIs were able to increase adipogenesis, especially RAL and ELV. TAF and TDF inhibited adipogenesis alone and in combination with INSTIs. This ability was more evident when TAF was used in combination with DTG and BIC. Finally, INSTIs increased the expression of ER-TR7 compared with control and cells treated with TAF or TDF. CONCLUSION Our data support the evidence that in-vitro challenge of 3T3-L1 cells with INSTIs is able to increase adipocytic differentiation and to drive a number of these cells toward the expression of fibroblastic features, with a different degree according to the various drugs used whereas TAF and TDF have an antagonistic role on this phenomenon.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have reported weight gain in ART-naive people living with HIV (PWH) initiating an integrase strand-transfer inhibitor-based regimen. We studied the impact of early or advanced presentation and that of individual drugs in PWH initiating combined ART (cART) between 2012 and 2018. METHODS From the French Hospital Database HIV cohort, we assessed factors associated with a weight gain ≥10%, weight change after cART initiation or BMI increase ≥5 kg/m2 up to 30 months. The analyses were conducted overall, and among PWH with early (primary infection or CD4 >350/mm3 and viral load <100 000 copies/mL, without AIDS) and advanced presentation (AIDS or CD4 <200/mm3, not during primary infection). RESULTS At 30 months, 34.5% (95% CI: 33.5-35.6) of the 12 773 PWH had a weight gain ≥10%, with 20.9% (95% CI: 19.6-22.2) among the 5794 with early presentation and 63.1% (95% CI: 60.9-65.3) among the 3106 with advanced presentation. Weight gain was 2.8 kg (95% CI: 2.0-3.7) for those with early presentation and 9.7 kg (95% CI: 8.4-11.1) for those with advanced presentation. Most weight gain occurred in the first 12 months. Underweight and obese PWH were at significantly higher risk of a BMI increase ≥5 kg/m2 than normal-weight PWH. Results differed within classes and by outcome. Raltegravir and dolutegravir were consistently associated with greater weight gain than the other third agents. Tenofovir alafenamide was also associated with higher weight gain than tenofovir disoproxil or abacavir. CONCLUSIONS After initiating cART, PWH with early presentation exhibited a small weight gain, whereas it was large among those with advanced presentation. The choice of ART should account for the risk of weight gain, especially for PWH who present with advanced disease and/or are obese.

Abstract
More than fifteen million women with the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection are of childbearing age world-wide. Due to improved and affordable access to antiretroviral therapy (ART), the number of in utero antiretroviral drug (ARV)-exposed children has exceeded a million and continues to grow. While most recommended ART taken during pregnancy suppresses mother to child viral transmission, the knowledge of drug safety linked to fetal neurodevelopment remains an area of active investigation. For example, few studies have suggested that ARV use can be associated with neural tube defects (NTDs) and most notably with the integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) dolutegravir (DTG). After risk benefit assessments, the World Health Organization (WHO) made recommendations for DTG usage as a first and second-line preferred treatment for infected populations including pregnant women and those of childbearing age. Nonetheless, long-term safety concerns remain for fetal health. This has led to a number of recent studies underscoring the need for biomarkers to elucidate potential mechanisms underlying long-term neurodevelopmental adverse events. With this goal in mind, we now report the inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activities by INSTIs as an ARV class effect. Balanced MMPs activities play a crucial role in fetal neurodevelopment. Inhibition of MMPs activities by INSTIs during neurodevelopment could be a potential mechanism for adverse events. Thus, comprehensive molecular docking testing of the INSTIs, DTG, bictegravir (BIC), and cabotegravir (CAB), against twenty-three human MMPs showed broad-spectrum inhibition. With a metal chelating chemical property, each of the INSTI were shown to bind Zn++ at the MMP's catalytic domain leading to MMP inhibition but to variable binding energies. These results were validated in myeloid cell culture experiments demonstrating MMP-2 and 9 inhibitions by DTG, BIC and CAB and even at higher degree than doxycycline (DOX). Altogether, these data provide a potential mechanism for how INSTIs could affect fetal neurodevelopment.

Abstract
Importance Recent advances in treatment and prevention of HIV warrant updated recommendations to guide optimal practice. Objective Based on a critical evaluation of new data, to provide clinicians with recommendations on use of antiretroviral drugs for the treatment and prevention of HIV, laboratory monitoring, care of people aging with HIV, substance use disorder and HIV, and new challenges in people with HIV, including COVID-19 and monkeypox virus infection. Evidence Review A panel of volunteer expert physician scientists were appointed to update the 2020 consensus recommendations. Relevant evidence in the literature (PubMed and Embase searches, which initially yielded 7891 unique citations, of which 834 were considered relevant) and studies presented at peer-reviewed scientific conferences between January 2020 and October 2022 were considered. Findings Initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is recommended as soon as possible after diagnosis of HIV. Barriers to care should be addressed, including ensuring access to ART and adherence support. Integrase strand transfer inhibitor-containing regimens remain the mainstay of initial therapy. For people who have achieved viral suppression with a daily oral regimen, long-acting injectable therapy with cabotegravir plus rilpivirine given as infrequently as every 2 months is now an option. Weight gain and metabolic complications have been linked to certain antiretroviral medications; novel strategies to ameliorate these complications are needed. Management of comorbidities throughout the life span is increasingly important, because people with HIV are living longer and confronting the health challenges of aging. In addition, management of substance use disorder in people with HIV requires an evidence-based, integrated approach. Options for preexposure prophylaxis include oral medications (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate or tenofovir alafenamide plus emtricitabine) and, for the first time, a long-acting injectable agent, cabotegravir. Recent global health emergencies, like the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and monkeypox virus outbreak, continue to have a major effect on people with HIV and the delivery of services. To address these and other challenges, an equity-based approach is essential. Conclusions and Relevance Advances in treatment and prevention of HIV continue to improve outcomes, but challenges and opportunities remain.

Abstract
Dolutegravir is a highly potent HIV integrase strand transfer inhibitor that is recommended for first-line anti-retroviral treatment in all major treatment guidelines. A recent study has shown that people taking this class of anti-retroviral treatment have a substantially higher risk of early-onset cardiovascular disease, a condition shown previously to be associated with increased platelet reactivity. To date, few studies have explored the effects of dolutegravir on platelet activation. Accordingly, the current study was undertaken with the primary objective of investigating the effects of dolutegravir on the reactivity of human platelets in vitro. Platelet-rich plasma, isolated platelets, or buffy coat cell suspensions prepared from the blood of healthy adults were treated with dolutegravir (2.5-10 µg/ml), followed by activation with adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP), thrombin, or a thromboxane A2 receptor agonist U46619. Expression of platelet CD62P (P-selectin), formation of heterotypic neutrophil:platelet aggregates, and calcium (Ca2+) fluxes were measured using flow cytometry and fluorescence spectrometry, respectively. Dolutegravir caused dose-related potentiation of ADP-, thrombin- and U46619-activated expression of CD62P by platelets, as well as a significant increases in formation of neutrophil:platelet aggregates. These effects were paralleled by a spontaneous, receptor-independent elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ that appears to underpin the mechanism by which the antiretroviral agent augments the responsiveness of these cells to ADP, thrombin and U46619. The most likely mechanism of dolutegravir-mediated increases in platelet cytosolic Ca2+ relates to a combination of lipophilicity and divalent/trivalent metal-binding and/or chelating properties of the anti-retroviral agent. These properties are likely to confer ionophore-type activities on dolutegravir that would promote movement of Ca2+ across the plasma membrane, delivering the cation to the cytosol where it would augment Ca2+-dependent intracellular signaling mechanisms. These effects of dolutegravir may lead to hyper-activation of platelets which, if operative in vivo, may contribute to an increased risk for cardiometabolic co-morbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Integrase inhibitors have been associated with excess gestational weight gain that may lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs). This post hoc analysis of NICHD P1081 compared antepartum changes in weight and body mass index (BMI) in pregnant women initiating raltegravir- or efavirenz-based combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) and examined associations between rates of weight gain and APOs. SETTING NICHD P1081 enrolled antiretroviral-naive pregnant women living with HIV in the second and third trimester in Brazil, Tanzania, South Africa, Thailand, Argentina, and the United States. METHODS Two hundred eighty-one women enrolled between 20 and 31 gestational weeks were randomized to raltegravir- or efavirenz-based cART and followed for ≥4 weeks. A low rate of weight gain was defined as <0.18 kg/wk and high as >0.59 kg/wk. We compared weight gain and BMI increase between treatment arms using Kruskal-Wallis tests. Logistic regression was used to investigate the association between weight gain and APOs. RESULTS Raltegravir-based cART was associated with significantly higher antepartum weight gain (median 0.36 kg/wk versus 0.29 kg/wk, P = 0.01) and BMI increase (median 0.14 kg/m 2 /wk versus 0.11 kg/m 2 /wk, P = 0.01) compared with efavirenz-based treatment. Women on raltegravir had less low weight gain (18% versus 36%) and more high weight gain (21% versus 12%) ( P = 0.001). Women with low weight gain were more likely than those with normal weight gain to have small for gestational age infants or a composite of APOs. CONCLUSIONS A raltegravir-based antiretroviral regimen was associated with significantly higher antepartum rate of weight gain and BMI increase compared with efavirenz-based treatment in antiretroviral-naive pregnant women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiretroviral therapy (ART) containing integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) has been associated with weight gain in both ART initiation and switch studies, especially in women, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. METHODS The effects of dolutegravir (DTG) on food intake, energy expenditure, oxygen consumption in female mice, and gene expression from adipose tissues were assessed. Human and murine preadipocytes were treated with DTG either during differentiation into mature brown/beige adipocytes or postdifferentiation. Lipid accumulation, lipolysis, β-adrenergic response, adipogenic markers, mitochondrial respiration, and insulin response were analyzed. RESULTS Two-week administration of DTG to female mice reduced energy expenditure, which was accompanied by decreased uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression in brown/beige adipose tissues. In vitro studies showed that DTG significantly reduced brown adipogenic markers, especially UCP1 in brown and beige adipocytes, whereas drugs from other classes did not. Furthermore, a loss of UCP1 by DTG led to a decrease in mitochondrial complex IV component, followed by a reduction in mitochondrial respiratory capacity and reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. CONCLUSIONS Our findings show that DTG targets UCP1 and mitochondrial functions in brown and beige adipocytes and disrupts thermogenic functions in preclinical models, providing the potential mechanisms by which DTG suppresses energy expenditure leading to weight gain.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease with multiple adverse effects on health. The prevalence of obesity is increasing worldwide, and people of African ancestry are disproportionally affected. Several widely used antiretrovirals have been associated with weight gain and contribute to the rising burden of obesity in people with HIV. Obesity and weight gain on antiretroviral therapy are risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus, a condition which also disproportionally affects black populations. In this review, we discuss recent data on weight gain in relation to initiating or switching antiretroviral therapy and advances in the management of obesity. Availability of highly effective treatments for obesity have the potential to address, and potentially reverse, the epidemics of obesity and diabetes mellitus in people with HIV.

Prolonged Antiretroviral Treatment Induces Adipose Tissue Remodelling Associated with Mild Inflammation in SIV-Infected Macaques. Cells 2022; 11:cells11193104.

Abstract
During chronic SIV/HIV infection, adipose tissue (AT) is the target of both antiretroviral treatment (ART) and the virus. AT might subsequently contribute to the low-grade systemic inflammation observed in patients on ART. To evaluate the inflammatory profile of AT during chronic SIV/HIV infection, we assayed subcutaneous and visceral abdominal AT from non-infected (SIV−, control), ART-naïve SIV-infected (SIV+) and ART-controlled SIV-infected (SIV+ART+) cynomolgus macaques for the mRNA expression of genes coding for factors related to inflammation. Significant differences were observed only when comparing the SIV+ART+ group with the SIV+ and/or SIV− groups. ART-treated infection impacted the metabolic fraction (with elevated expression of PPARγ and CEBPα), the extracellular matrix (with elevated expression of COL1A2 and HIF-1α), and the inflammatory profile. Both pro- and anti-inflammatory signatures were detected in AT, with greater mRNA expression of anti-inflammatory markers (adiponectin and CD163) and markers associated with inflammation (TNF-α, Mx1, CCL5 and CX3CL1). There were no intergroup differences in other markers (IL-6 and MCP-1). In conclusion, we observed marked differences in the immune and metabolic profiles of AT in the context of an ART-treated, chronic SIV infection; these differences were related more to ART than to SIV infection per se.

Abstract
Metabolic adaptation to viral infections critically determines the course and manifestations of disease. At the systemic level, a significant feature of viral infection and inflammation that ensues is the metabolic shift from anabolic towards catabolic metabolism. Systemic metabolic sequelae such as insulin resistance and dyslipidaemia represent long-term health consequences of many infections such as human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis C virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. The long-held presumption that peripheral and tissue-specific 'immune responses' are the chief line of defence and thus regulate viral control is incomplete. This Review focuses on the emerging paradigm shift proposing that metabolic engagements and metabolic reconfiguration of immune and non-immune cells following virus recognition modulate the natural course of viral infections. Early metabolic footprints are likely to influence longer-term disease manifestations of infection. A greater appreciation and understanding of how local biochemical adjustments in the periphery and tissues influence immunity will ultimately lead to interventions that curtail disease progression and identify new and improved prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The primary objective was to explore weight and BMI changes in people with HIV (PWH) undergoing integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI)-based regimens (vs. non-INSTI) in a large cohort and in the subsets of individuals without diabetes and insulin resistance (IR) at the time of switch to INSTI. The secondary objective was to identify risk factors for IR and cut-off of weight or BMI increase associated with IR in PWH switching to INSTI. DESIGN A longitudinal matched-cohort study including PWH attending Modena HIV Metabolic Clinic, Italy. METHODS PWH were divided into two groups: non-INSTI and INSTI-switch. The effect of switching to INSTI on weight and BMI change was tested through a linear mixed model. A mediation analysis explored the mediation effect of weight and BMI change in the association between the switch to INSTI and IR. RESULTS We analyzed 2437 PWH (1025 INSTI-switch, 1412 non-INSTI), in 54 826 weight assessments. Trends for weight increase were significantly higher in early-INSTI-switch (vs. early-non-INSTI), but no difference was observed in the late period after the switch. In the subset of 634 PWH without IR, switching to INSTI (vs. non-INSTI) was associated with a lower risk of IR (hazard ratio = 0.70, 95% confidence interval: 0.51, 0.98). A weight increase by 1% reduced the total protective effect of INSTI by 21.1% over 1 year of follow-up, which identifies a 5% weight increase as a clinically meaningful weight gain definition. CONCLUSION A cut-off of 5% weight gain from the time of INSTI-switch is associated with IR, which may be a clinically meaningful endpoint that could be used in clinical and research settings.

Abstract
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) comprises a combination of two or three antiretroviral (ARV) drugs that are administered together in a single tablet. These drugs target different steps within the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) life cycle, providing either a synergistic or additive antiviral effect; this enhances the efficiency in which viral replication is suppressed. HIV cannot be completely eliminated, making HAART a lifetime treatment. With long-term HAART usage, an increasing number of patients experience a broadening array of complications, and this significantly affects their quality of life, despite cautious use. The mechanism through which ARV drugs induce toxicity is associated with metabolic complications such as mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation. To address this, it is necessary to improve ARV drug formulation without compromising its efficacy; alternatively, safe supplementary medicine may be a suitable solution. The medicinal plant Moringa oleifera (MO) is considered one of the most important sources of novel nutritionally and pharmacologically active compounds that have been shown to prevent and treat various diseases. MO leaves are rich in polyphenols, vitamins, minerals, and tannins; studies have confirmed the therapeutic properties of MO. MO leaves provide powerful antioxidants, scavenge free radicals, promote carbohydrate metabolism, and repair DNA. MO also induces anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, anti-proliferative, and anti-mutagenic effects. Therefore, MO can be a source of affordable and safe supplement therapy for HAART-induced toxicity. This review highlights the potential of MO leaves to protect against HAART-induced toxicity in HIV patients.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the potential direct effects of the integrase strand-transfer inhibitors (INsTIs) dolutegravir, bictegravir, and raltegravir, drugs used as treatment for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH), on human adipose cells. MAIN METHODS Drugs were added to the differentiation medium of human Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) adipose cells and morphological adipogenesis was monitored for 10 days. Also, adipocytes were exposed to drugs following differentiation (day 14). The gene expression levels of selected adipogenesis markers, adipocyte metabolism markers, adipokines, and cytokines were determined by quantitative-reverse transcription polymerase-chain reaction. The release of adiponectin and leptin into the culture medium was measured using specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and release of interleukin-6 and chemokine (CC motif) ligand-2 using Multiplex assays. KEY FINDINGS Overall morphological adipogenesis was unaltered by INsTIs. The expression of adipogenesis marker genes (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-Ɣ and lipoprotein lipase) was slightly reduced in dolutegravir-treated differentiating adipocytes. Bictegravir repressed gene expression and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in differentiating adipocytes. Dolutegravir and raltegravir increased interleukin-6 gene expression, but only dolutegravir increased interleukin-6 release. Dolutegravir repressed adiponectin expression and release in differentiating adipocytes and had a similar but milder effect on leptin. Drug treatment of mature adipocytes reduced adiponectin gene expression in response to dolutegravir. SIGNIFICANCE The INsTIs studied do not have a significant effect on human adipose cell differentiation but exert distinct effects on gene expression and secretion of adipokines and cytokines. These findings will help understand and manage the effects of INsTI-containing treatments on body weight and metabolic dysregulation in PLWH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Both obesity and HIV infection are characterized by a state of chronic inflammation associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This review aims to assess the available literature on immune dysregulation in obesity and people with HIV infection (PWH). DESIGN A systematic review of peer-reviewed literature. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature search of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and international conference abstracts for articles on the epidemiology of obesity in the general population and in PWH and the pathogenesis of obesity with a focus on inflammation and immune activation. RESULTS Of the 631 articles selected after title review, 490 met the inclusion criteria and 90 were included in the final selection. The selected studies highlight the increasing prevalence of obesity in PWH and a substantial role for antiretroviral treatment (ART) in its development. Pathogenesis of obesity and its associated inflammation derives from disturbances in adipose tissue (AT) immune function, focused on T-cell and macrophage function, with a switch to pro-inflammatory immune phenotype and resulting increases in pro-inflammatory chemokines, which contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome. Although dysregulation of these pathways is seen in both obesity and HIV, there remains a lack of human studies on AT inflammation in HIV. CONCLUSION Obesity is an emerging comorbidity in PWH, with a substantial overlap in immune dysregulation patterns seen in both conditions. How this immune dysfunction impacts on development of metabolic complications for both obesity and HIV infection, and whether targeting of AT-derived inflammation will improve outcomes in PWH requires further study.

Incidence of hypertension in people with HIV who are treated with integrase inhibitors versus other antiretroviral regimens in the RESPOND cohort consortium. HIV Med 2022; 23:895-910. [PMID: 35233903 PMCID: PMC9545382 DOI: 10.1111/hiv.13273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 01/30/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the incidence of hypertension in people living with HIV receiving integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) versus non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) or boosted protease inhibitors (PIs) in the RESPOND consortium of HIV cohorts. METHODS Eligible people with HIV were aged ≥18 years who initiated a new three-drug ART regimen for the first time (baseline), did not have hypertension, and had at least two follow-up blood pressure (BP) measurements. Hypertension was defined as two consecutive systolic BP measurements ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP ≥90 mmHg or initiation of antihypertensives. Multivariable Poisson regression was used to determine adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRRs) of hypertension, overall and in those who were ART naïve or experienced at baseline. RESULTS Overall, 4606 people living with HIV were eligible (INSTIs 3164, NNRTIs 807, PIs 635). The median baseline systolic BP, diastolic BP, and age were 120 (interquartile range [IQR] 113-130) mmHg, 78 (70-82) mmHg, and 43 (34-50) years, respectively. Over 8380.4 person-years (median follow-up 1.5 [IQR 1.0-2.7] years), 1058 (23.0%) participants developed hypertension (incidence rate 126.2/1000 person-years, 95% confidence interval [CI] 118.9-134.1). Participants receiving INSTIs had a higher incidence of hypertension than those receiving NNRTIs (aIRR 1.76; 95% CI 1.47-2.11), whereas the incidence was no different in those receiving PIs (aIRR 1.07; 95% CI 0.89-1.29). The results were similar when the analysis was stratified by ART status at baseline. CONCLUSION Although unmeasured confounding and channelling bias cannot be excluded, INSTIs were associated with a higher incidence of hypertension than were NNRTIs, but rates were similar to those of PIs overall, in ART-naïve and ART-experienced participants within RESPOND.

Abstract
Despite being widely applied in drug development, existing in vitro 2D cell-based models are not suitable to assess chronic mitochondrial toxicity. A novel in vitro assay system mimicking in vivo microenvironment for this purpose is urgently needed. The goal of this study is to establish a 3D cell platform as a reliable, sensitive, cost-efficient, and high-throughput assay to predict drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity. We evaluated a long-term culture of human primary urine-derived stem cells (USC) seeded in 3D silk fiber matrix (3D USC-SFM) and further tested chronic mitochondrial toxicity induced by Zalcitabine (ddC, a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) as a test drug, compared to USC grown in spheroids. The numbers of USC remain steady in 3D spheroids for 4 weeks and 3D SFM for 6 weeks. However, the majority (95%) of USC survived in 3D SFM, while cell numbers significantly declined in 3D spheroids at 6 weeks. Highly porous SFM provides large-scale numbers of cells by increasing the yield of USC 125-fold/well, which enables the carrying of sufficient cells for multiple experiments with less labor and lower cost, compared to 3D spheroids. The levels of mtDNA content and mitochondrial superoxide dismutase2 [SOD2] as an oxidative stress biomarker and cell senescence genes (RB and P16, p21) of USC were all stably retained in 3D USC-SFM, while those were significantly increased in spheroids. mtDNA content and mitochondrial mass in both 3D culture models significantly decreased six weeks after treatment of ddC (0.2, 2, and 10 μM), compared to 0.1% DMSO control. Levels of complexes I, II, and III significantly decreased in 3D SFM-USC treated with ddC, compared to only complex I level which declined in spheroids. A dose- and time-dependent chronic MtT displayed in the 3D USC-SFM model, but not in spheroids. Thus, a long-term 3D culture model of human primary USC provides a cost-effective and sensitive approach potential for the assessment of drug-induced chronic mitochondrial toxicity.

Abstract
For people living with HIV, treatment with integrase-strand-transfer-inhibitors (INSTIs) can promote adipose tissue (AT) gain. We previously demonstrated that INSTIs can induce hypertrophy and fibrosis in AT of macaques and humans. By promoting energy expenditure, the emergence of beige adipocytes in white AT (beiging) could play an important role by limiting excess lipid storage and associated adipocyte dysfunction. We hypothesized that INSTIs could alter AT via beiging inhibition. Fibrosis and gene expression were measured in subcutaneous (SCAT) and visceral AT (VAT) from SIV-infected, dolutegravir-treated (SIVART) macaques. Beiging capacity was assessed in human adipose stromal cells (ASCs) undergoing differentiation and being exposed to dolutegravir, bictegravir, or raltegravir. Expression of beige markers, such as positive-regulatory-domain-containing-16 (PRDM16), were lower in AT of SIVART as compared to control macaques, whereas fibrosis-related genes were higher. Dolutegravir and bictegravir inhibited beige differentiation in ASCs, as shown by lower expression of beige markers and lower cell respiration. INSTIs also induced a hypertrophic insulin-resistant state associated with a pro-fibrotic phenotype. Our results indicate that adipocyte hypertrophy induced by INSTIs is involved via hypoxia (revealed by a greater hypoxia-inducible-factor-1-alpha gene expression) in fat fibrosis, beiging inhibition, and thus (via positive feedback), probably, further hypertrophy and associated insulin resistance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fat redistribution from subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) to the abdominal viscera, pericardium, liver, and skeletal muscle contributes to the rising burden of cardiometabolic disease among persons with HIV (PWH). Previous studies found SAT inflammation in PWH impairs lipid storage and persists despite plasma viral suppression on antiretroviral therapy (ART). In this study, we identified SAT immune-related genes associated with ectopic fat deposition in PWH on long-term ART. DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 92 PWH with well-controlled viremia underwent computed tomography imaging and abdominal SAT biopsy for gene expression analysis. SAT gene expression was measured using a NanoString panel of 255 immune-related genes. Associations between gene expression and computed tomography measurements of the volume and attenuation (radiodensity) of metabolically relevant ectopic fat depots were assessed using multivariable linear regression and network analysis. RESULTS Greater SAT volume was associated with higher visceral and pericardial adipose tissue volume, but lower skeletal muscle attenuation. Lower SAT attenuation, a measure of lipid content, was associated with lower visceral adipose tissue attenuation. Hierarchical clustering identified a subset of macrophage-related genes in SAT, including CCL2, CCL22, CCL13, CCR1, CD86, CD163, IL-6, IL-10, MRC1, and TREM2, which were associated with an increased lipid deposition in multiple ectopic depots. CONCLUSION Altered expression of macrophage-related genes in SAT is associated with differences in ectopic fat depot morphometrics among PWH on long-term ART, including in the pericardial and visceral compartments. These findings provide basis for future studies to assess host, virus, and treatment factors shaping the SAT immune environment and its effects on morphometric changes and metabolic comorbidities in PWH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare clinical characteristics and adipose/liver tissue histology analysis in HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected subjects undergoing bariatric surgery. DESIGN This was a cross-sectional study of HIV-infected subjects undergoing single-port sleeve gastrectomy with prospective enrolment and frequency age (±5 years), sex, and body mass index (BMI, ± 5 kg/m2) matched on HIV-uninfected subjects. METHODS This study was conducted at a single clinical site at Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital-Paris-France comprising 19 HIV-uninfected and 21 HIV-infected subjects with plasma VL < 20 copies/mL, all with a BMI > 40 kg/m2 or >35 kg/m2 with comorbidities. Histology of subcutaneous and visceral abdominal adipose tissue (SCAT/VAT) and liver biopsies was collected during single-port sleeve gastrectomy. Outcomes included anthropometric characteristics, comorbidities, cardiovascular parameters, adipose tissue, and liver histology. RESULTS The age of HIV-infected participants was (median, interquartile range IQR) 48 y (42-51), with 76.2% females, a BMI of 41.4 kg/m2 (37.3-44.4), an antiretroviral duration of 16 y (8-21), current integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based regimen in 15 participants and non-INSTI regimen in 6 participants, and a CD4 count of 864/mm3 (560-1066). The age of controls was 43 y (37-51), with 78.9% females and a BMI of 39.2 kg/m2 (36.3-42.6). Anthropometric characteristics, comorbidities, and cardiovascular parameters did not differ according to HIV status and INSTI treatment. The number of macrophage crown-like structures in SCAT was lower in INSTI-treated participants than in HIV-uninfected participants (P = 0.02) and non-INSTI-treated HIV-infected subjects (P = 0.07). Hepatic steatosis and liver disease severity global score were lower in INSTI-treated participants than in non-INSTI-treated HIV-infected participants (P = 0.05 and P = 0.04, respectively). CONCLUSIONS HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected subjects undergoing bariatric surgery presented a similar profile regarding anthropometric measures, cardiovascular parameters, and comorbidities. However, INSTI-treated participants presented milder SCAT and liver alterations than non-INSTI-treated participants.

Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:1042. [PMID: 35631624 PMCID: PMC9145543 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14051042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial toxicity (Mito-Tox) risk has increased due to the administration of several classes of drugs, particularly some life-long antiretroviral drugs for HIV+ individuals. However, no suitable in vitro assays are available to test long-term Mito-Tox (≥4 weeks). The goal of this study is to develop a 3D spheroid system of human primary urine-derived stem cells (USC) for the prediction of drug-induced delayed Mito-Tox. The cytotoxicity and Mito-Tox were assessed in 3D USC spheroids 4 weeks after treatment with antiretroviral drugs: zalcitabine (ddC; 0.1, 1 and 10 µM), tenofovir (TFV; 3, 30 and 300 µM) or Raltegravir (RAL; 2, 20 and 200 µM). Rotenone (RTNN, 10 µM) and 0.1% DMSO served as positive and negative controls. Despite only mild cytotoxicity, ddC significantly inhibited the expression of oxidative phosphorylation enzyme Complexes I, III, and IV; and RAL transiently reduced the level of Complex IV. A significant increase in caspase 3 and ROS/RNS level but a decrease in total ATP were observed in USC treated with ddC, TFV, RAL, and RTNN. Levels of mtDNA content and mitochondrial mass were decreased in ddC but minimally or not in TFV- and RAL-treated spheroids. Thus, 3D USC spheroid using antiretroviral drugs as a model offers an alternative platform to assess drug-induced late Mito-Tox.

Abstract
Drug-induced diabetes mellitus is a growing problem in clinical practice. New, potent medications contribute to this problem in a population already at high risk of developing glucose disturbances because of poor lifestyle habits and high prevalence of being overweight/obese. The present review focuses on four important pharmacological classes: glucocorticoids; antipsychotics, especially second generation; antiretroviral therapies, which revolutionised the management of individuals with HIV; and immune checkpoint inhibitors, recently used for the immunotherapy of cancer. For each class, the prevalence of drug-induced diabetes will be evaluated, the most common clinical presentations will be described, the underlying mechanisms leading to hyperglycaemia will be briefly analysed, and some recommendations for appropriate monitoring and management will be proposed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review reports on published studies describing metabolic changes associated with antiretroviral therapy (ART) to treat HIV disease including a historical perspective of earlier ART agents, but with the main focus on newer ART agents currently in use. RECENT FINDINGS Studies from different countries around the world have shown that integrase inhibitor (INSTI)-based regimens as well as tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) are associated with weight gain, with women and people of black race at especially high risk. Some studies preliminarily suggest worsened metabolic outcomes associated with this weight gain including adverse effects on glucose homeostasis. Antiretroviral therapy can affect weight, adipose tissue, glucose, and lipids. As obesity is prevalent and increasing among people with HIV, awareness of risk factors for weight gain, including the ART medications associated with greater weight gain, are needed in order to inform prevention efforts. Further research is needed to better understand the long-term health consequences of INSTI- and TAF-associated weight increases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The adipokines leptin and adiponectin, produced primarily by adipose tissue, have diverse endocrine and immunologic effects, and circulating levels reflect adipocyte lipid content, local inflammation, and tissue composition. We assessed relationships between changes in regional fat depots, leptin and adiponectin levels, and metabolic and inflammatory markers over 96 weeks in the AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG) A5260s metabolic substudy of the A5257 randomized trial of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine plus atazanavir/ritonavir, darunavir/ritonavir, or raltegravir among treatment-naive persons with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH). METHODS Fat depots were measured using dual-energy absorptiometry and abdominal computed tomographic imaging at treatment initiation and 96 weeks later. Serum leptin and adiponectin, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured at the same timepoints. Multivariable regression models assessed relationships between fat depots, adipokines, HOMA-IR, and hsCRP at week 96. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-four participants maintained viral suppression through 96 weeks (90% male, 29% black, median age 36 years). Serum leptin increased over 96 weeks (mean change 22%) while adiponectin did not (mean change 1%), which did not differ by study arm. Greater trunk, limb, and abdominal subcutaneous and visceral fat were associated with higher HOMA-IR and hsCRP at 96 weeks, but serum leptin level was a stronger determinant of these endpoints using a mediation model approach. A similar mediating effect was not observed for adiponectin. CONCLUSIONS Higher circulating leptin is associated with greater HOMA-IR and hsCRP independent of fat depot size, suggesting that greater adipocyte lipid content may contribute to impaired glucose tolerance and systemic inflammation among PWH starting antiretroviral therapy.

Abstract
Excessive weight gain associated with integrase strand transfer inhibitor (InSTI) antiretrovirals is an emerging issue; however, the metabolic consequences of this effect have not been established. Our objective was to evaluate for InSTI-emergent weight gain and potential associated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among a diverse HIV patient cohort. For this retrospective cohort study, we obtained clinical warehouse data for HIV+ patients between fiscal years 2007-17. We compared patients initiated on an InSTI with those started on an alternate regimen. Our primary outcome was percentage weight change from baseline to 24 months postinitiation using the linear mixed-effects model fit by restricted maximum likelihood. Our secondary outcome was incident T2DM as defined by a new prescription for antihyperglycemic medication within 18 months after antiretroviral therapy (ART) start. Diabetes-free survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional-hazards model. The cohort included 1,235 individuals initiating ART, 136 (11.0%) with an InSTI. InSTI use in women was significantly associated with greater weight gain compared with non-InSTIs (11.0%, 95% confidence interval, CI: 5.22 to 16.8, p < .01), after adjusting for potential confounding variables. In a univariate analysis, InSTI use was associated with more incident T2DM diagnoses compared with non-InSTI regimens (unadjusted hazard ratio = 3.27, p = .01), although incident T2DM was not associated with weight gain. InSTIs were significantly associated with weight gain among females. We also observed an increased risk of incident diabetes mellitus among both sexes, however, unrelated to weight changes. Further prospective studies will be necessary to confirm this finding and investigate its mechanism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study evaluated body mass index (BMI) and weight changes in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1; PLWH) initiated on single-tablet darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (DRV/c/FTC/TAF) or bictegravir/FTC/TAF (BIC/FTC/TAF). METHODS Electronic medical record (EMR) data for treatment-naïve or virologically suppressed adults with HIV-1 who initiated treatment with DRV/c/FTC/TAF or BIC/FTC/TAF (index date) were obtained from Decision Resources Group's EMRs (17 July 2017-1 March 2020). Inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to account for differences in baseline characteristics between the two cohorts. BMI and weight changes from pre-index to 3, 6, 9 and 12 months following the index date were compared using weighted mean differences (MDs). The time until an increase in BMI or weight ≥5% or ≥10% was compared using weighted hazard ratios (HRs). RESULTS The weighted DRV/c/FTC/TAF and BIC/FTC/TAF cohorts comprised 1116 and 1134 PLWH, respectively (mean age = ∼49 years, females: ∼28%). Larger increases in BMI and weight from pre-index to each post-index time point were observed in PLWH initiating BIC/FTC/TAF vs DRV/c/FTC/TAF (12 months: MD in BMI = 1.23 kg/m2, p < .001; MD in weight = 2.84 kg [6.26 lbs], p = .008). PLWH receiving BIC/FTC/TAF were significantly more likely to experience weight gain ≥5% (HR = 1.76, p = .004) and ≥10% (HR = 2.01, p = .020), and BMI increase ≥5% (HR = 1.77, p = .004) and ≥10% (HR = 1.76, p = .044) than those receiving DRV/c/FTC/TAF. CONCLUSIONS BIC/FTC/TAF was associated with greater BMI and weight increases compared to DRV/c/FTC/TAF. Weight gain and its sequelae may add to the clinical burden of PLWH and should be considered among other factors when selecting antiretroviral single-tablet regimens.

Abstract
While human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated wasting has declined with significant advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART), weight gain and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are now becoming a problem for people living with HIV (PLWH) worldwide. The development of a new and more effective ART regimen has increased viral suppression and improved immunologic function recovery, leading to the extension of the lifespan of PLWH. It has recently been reported as one of the significant factors associated with weight gain, obesity, and long-term metabolic consequences in PLWH. This article reviewed the epidemiology of overweight and MetS among PLWH and the known risk factors for weight gain and its major comorbidities, such as dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, neurocognitive disorders, and liver diseases, in PLWH. In addition, reports on the pharmacological and surgical management of overweight and obesity in PLWH has been briefly summarized.

Abstract
CONTEXT Disentangling contributions of HIV from antiretroviral therapy (ART) and understanding the effects of different ART on metabolic complications in persons living with HIV (PLHIV) has been challenging. OBJECTIVE We assessed the effect of untreated HIV infection as well as different antiretroviral therapy (ART) on the metabolome/lipidome. METHODS Widely targeted plasma metabolomic and lipidomic profiling was performed on HIV-seronegative individuals and people living with HIV (PLHIV) before and after initiating ART (tenofovir/emtricitabine plus atazanavir/ritonavir [ATV/r] or darunavir/ritonavir [DRV/r] or raltegravir [RAL]). Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis was used to assess metabolites/lipid subspecies that discriminated between groups. Graphical lasso estimated group-specific metabolite/lipid subspecies networks associated with the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR). Correlations between inflammatory markers and metabolites/lipid subspecies were visualized using heat maps. RESULTS Of 435 participants, 218 were PLHIV. Compared to HIV-seronegative individuals, ART-naive PLHIV exhibited higher levels of saturated triacylglycerols/triglycerides (TAGs) and 3-hydroxy-kynurenine, lower levels of unsaturated TAGs and N-acetyl-tryptophan, and a sparser and less heterogeneous network of metabolites/lipid subspecies associated with HOMA-IR. PLHIV on RAL vs ATV/r or DRV/r had lower saturated and unsaturated TAGs. Positive correlations were found between medium-long chain acylcarnitines (C14-C6 ACs), palmitate, and HOMA-IR for RAL but not ATV/r or DRV/r. Stronger correlations were seen for TAGs with interleukin 6 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein after RAL vs ATV/r or DRV/r initiation; these correlations were absent in ART-naive PLHIV. CONCLUSION Alterations in the metabolome/lipidome suggest increased lipogenesis for ART-naive PLHIV vs HIV-seronegative individuals, increased TAG turnover for RAL vs ATV/r or DRV/r, and increased inflammation associated with this altered metabolome/lipidome after initiating ART. Future studies are needed to understand cardiometabolic consequences of lipogenesis and inflammation in PLHIV.
