Vascul Pharmacol 2024; 155:107288. [PMID: 38428626 PMCID: PMC11189738 DOI: 10.1016/j.vph.2024.107288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
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.

Long-term effects on subclinical cardiovascular disease of switching from boosted protease inhibitors to dolutegravir. J Antimicrob Chemother 2023; 78:2361-2365. [PMID: 37539492 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkad247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In the NEAT022 trial, switching from boosted PIs (PI/r) to dolutegravir in people with HIV (PWH) with high cardiovascular risk decreased plasma lipids, soluble CD14 and adiponectin, and showed consistent favourable, although non-significant, effects on carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) progression at 48 weeks. We hereby communicate planned final 96 week results on biomarker changes and CIMT progression. METHODS PWH on a PI/r-based triple therapy regimen were randomly assigned (1:1) to switch the PI/r component to dolutegravir either immediately (DTG-I group) or after 48 weeks (DTG-D group) and were followed up to 96 weeks. We assessed changes in biomarkers associated with inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, monocyte immune activation, oxidation, insulin resistance, hypercoagulability, heart failure, myocardial injury and glomerular and tubular kidney injury, and right and left CIMT progression at 48 and 96 weeks. RESULTS Of 415 PWH randomized, 287 (69%) and 143 (34%) contributed to the biomarker and CIMT substudies respectively. There were significant 96 week changes in biomarkers associated with inflammation, immune activation, oxidation, insulin resistance and myocardial injury. Most changes were favourable, except for adiponectin reduction, which may suggest higher insulin resistance. We were unable to detect significant changes in the progression of CIMT between arms or within arms at 96 weeks. DISCUSSION After 96 weeks, switching from PI/r to dolutegravir in PWH with high cardiovascular risk led to significant changes in several biomarkers associated with cardiovascular disease. Although most changes were favourable, adiponectin reduction was not. There were non-significant changes in CIMT progression.

Impact of switching to TAF/FTC/RPV, TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi and ABC/3TC/DTG on cardiovascular risk and lipid profile in people living with HIV: a retrospective cohort study. BMC Infect Dis 2021; 21:595. [PMID: 34157984 PMCID: PMC8220746 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-021-06304-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess the overall cardiovascular and metabolic effect of the switch to three different single tablet regimens (STRs) [tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine/rilpivirine (TAF/FTC/RPV), TAF/FTC/elvitegravir/cobi (TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi) and ABC/lamivudine/dolutegravir (ABC/3TC/DTG)] in a cohort of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH) under effective ART. METHODS All PLWH aged above 18 years on antiretroviral treatment with an HIV-RNA < 50 cp/mL at the time of the switch to TAF/FTC/RPV, TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi and ABC/3TC/DTG were retrospectively included in the analysis. Framingham risk score modification after 12 months from the switch such as lipid profile and body weight modification were assessed. The change from baseline to 12 months in mean cardiovascular risk and body weight in each of the STR's group were assessed by means of Wilcoxon signed-rank test whereas a mixed regression model was used to assess variation in lipid levels. RESULTS Five-hundred and sixty PLWH were switched to an STR regimen of whom 170 (30.4%) to TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi, 191 (34.1%) to TAF/FTC/RPV and 199 (35.5%) to ABC/3TC/DTG. No difference in the Framingham cardiovascular risk score was observed after 12 months from the switch in each of the STR's groups. No significant overtime variation in mean total cholesterol levels from baseline to 12 months was observed for PLWH switched to ABC/3TC/DTG [200 (SD 38) mg/dl vs 201 (SD 35) mg/dl; p = 0.610] whereas a significant increment was observed in PLWH switched to TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi [192 (SD 34) mg/dl vs 208 (SD 40) mg/dl; p < 0.0001] and TAF/FTC/RPV [187 (SD 34) mg/dl vs 195 (SD 35) mg/dl; p = 0.027]. In addition, a significant variation in the mean body weight from baseline to 12 months was observed in PLWH switched to TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi [72.2 (SD 13.5) kilograms vs 74.6 (SD 14.3) kilograms; p < 0.0001] and TAF/FTC/RPV [73.4 (SD 11.6) kilograms vs 75.6 (SD 11.8) kilograms; p < 0.0001] whereas no difference was observed in those switched to ABC/3TC/DTG [71.5 (SD 12.8) kilograms vs 72.1 (SD 12.6) kilograms; p = 0.478]. CONCLUSION No difference in the cardiovascular risk after 1 year from the switch to these STRs were observed. PLWH switched to TAF/FTC/EVG/cobi and TAF/FTC/RPV showed an increase in total cholesterol levels and body weight 12 months after the switch.

Switching from boosted PIs to dolutegravir decreases soluble CD14 and adiponectin in high cardiovascular risk people living with HIV. J Antimicrob Chemother 2021; 76:2380-2393. [PMID: 34120186 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkab158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2021] [Accepted: 04/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Switching from boosted PIs to dolutegravir in people living with HIV (PLWH) with high cardiovascular risk improved plasma lipids at 48 weeks in the NEAT022 trial. Whether this strategy may have an impact on cardiovascular biomarkers is unknown. METHODS We assessed 48 week changes in biomarkers associated with inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, monocyte immune activation, oxidation, insulin resistance, hypercoagulability, heart failure, myocardial injury, and glomerular and tubular kidney injury. RESULTS Of 415 PLWH randomized in the NEAT022 study, 313 (75.4%) remained on allocated therapy and had paired samples available. Soluble CD14 (-11%, P < 0.001) and adiponectin (-11%, P < 0.001) significantly declined and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (-13%, P = 0.069) and oxidized LDL (-13%, P = 0.084) tended to decrease with dolutegravir. Switching to dolutegravir remained significantly associated with soluble CD14 and adiponectin reductions after adjustment for baseline variables. There were inverse correlations between soluble CD14 and CD4 count changes (P = 0.05), and between adiponectin and BMI changes (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Switching from boosted PIs to dolutegravir in PLWH with high cardiovascular risk led to soluble CD14 and adiponectin reductions at 48 weeks. While decreasing soluble CD14 may entail favourable health effects in PLWH, adiponectin reduction may reflect less insulin sensitivity associated with weight gain.
