Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Respiratory viral infections are prevalent and contribute to significant morbidity and mortality among solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. We review updates from literature on respiratory viruses, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in the SOT recipient. RECENT FINDINGS With the wider availability and use of molecular diagnostic tests, our understanding of the epidemiology and impact of respiratory viruses in the SOT population continues to expand. While considerable attention has been given to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the advances in prevention and treatment strategies of SARS-CoV-2 offered valuable insights into the development of new therapeutic options for managing other respiratory viruses in both the general and SOT population. SUMMARY Respiratory viruses can present with a diverse range of symptoms in SOT recipients, with potentially associated acute rejection and chronic lung allograft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients. The epidemiology, clinical presentations, diagnostic approaches, and treatment and preventive strategies for clinically significant RNA and DNA respiratory viruses in SOT recipients are reviewed. This review also covers novel antivirals, immunologic therapies, and vaccines in development for various community-acquired respiratory viruses.

Abstract
Pediatric liver transplant recipients are a high-risk group for the development of adenovirus hepatitis and other manifestations of disseminated adenoviral disease. The risk is greatest during periods of increased immunosuppression, including immediately post-transplantation and following treatment for rejection. Manifestations of adenovirus hepatitis are heterogeneous with a wide spectrum of clinical severity, ranging from mild, focal disease to fulminant liver failure. Here we report a case of liver transplantation-associated adenovirus hepatitis presenting with fever and multifocal liver lesions. The diagnosis was not clinically suspected due to atypical imaging findings and pathology. Non-targeted metagenomic sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA facilitated and expedited the diagnosis. Confirmatory conventional testing was obtained, allowing for appropriate initiation of targeted treatment in this patient.

Kidney Int 2023; 103:378-390. [PMID: 36436678 DOI: 10.1016/j.kint.2022.10.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Adenovirus nephritis (ADVN) is a rare and understudied complication of kidney transplantation. Unlike BK virus nephropathy (BKVN), our knowledge of clinicopathologic manifestations of ADVN remains rudimentary and essentially limited to case reports. To expand on this, we retrospectively studied 11 kidney transplant recipients with ADVN and compared their allograft biopsies to 33 kidney transplant recipients with BKVN using conventional microscopy and the 770 gene Nanostring Banff Human Organ Transplant Profiling Panel. Patients with ADVN had a median age of 44 years, were predominantly male, and developed ADVN at a median of 31 months post-transplantation. Eight patients presented with fever and ten had hematuria. The most common histologic manifestations included granulomas (82%), tubulocentric inflammation (73%), and tubular degenerative changes consistent with acute tubular necrosis (73%). During a median follow-up of 55 months after biopsy, three patients developed allograft failure from subsequent acute rejection. All seven patients with available follow-up PCR showed resolution of viremia at a median of 30 days after diagnosis. Compared to BKVN, ADVN demonstrated more granulomas and less tubulointerstitial scarring. On follow-up, patients with ADVN had more rapid clearance of viral DNA from plasma. Transcriptomic analyses showed that ADVN had increased expression of several pro-inflammatory transcriptomes, mainly related to innate immunity, was associated with increased expression of transcripts with inhibitory effects on inflammatory response and showed higher enrichment with neutrophils, which can cause aggressive but short-lasting damage. Thus, we demonstrate that, despite its association with aggressive neutrophil-rich inflammation, ADVN does not often lead to allograft failure. Hence, preventing subsequent acute rejection following resolution of ADVN may improve allograft survival.

Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing Versus Traditional Laboratory Methods for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Infection in Liver Transplantation. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:886359. [PMID: 35782119 PMCID: PMC9245428 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.886359] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundMetagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has emerged as an effective method for the noninvasive and precise detection of infectious pathogens. However, data are lacking on whether mNGS analyses could be used for the diagnosis and treatment of infection during the perioperative period in patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT).MethodsFrom February 2018 to October 2018, we conducted an exploratory study using mNGS and traditional laboratory methods (TMs), including culture, serologic assays, and nucleic acid testing, for pathogen detection in 42 pairs of cadaveric liver donors and their corresponding recipients. Method performance in determining the presence of perioperative infection and guiding subsequent clinical decisions was compared between mNGS and TMs.ResultsThe percentage of liver donors with mNGS-positive pathogen results (64.3%, 27/42) was significantly higher than that using TMs (28.6%, 12/42; P<0.05). The percentage of co-infection detected by mNGS in liver donors was 23.8% (10/42) significantly higher than 0.0% (0/42) by TMs (P<0.01). Forty-three pathogens were detected using mNGS, while only 12 pathogens were identified using TMs. The results of the mNGS analyses were consistent with results of the TM analyses in 91.7% (11/12) of donor samples at the species level, while mNGS could be used to detect pathogens in 66.7% (20/30) of donors deemed pathogen-negative using TMs. Identical pathogens were detected in 6 cases of donors and recipients by mNGS, among which 4 cases were finally confirmed as donor-derived infections (DDIs). For TMs, identical pathogens were detected in only 2 cases. Furthermore, 8 recipients developed early symptoms of infection (<7 days) after LT; we adjusted the type of antibiotics and/or discontinued immunosuppressants according to the mNGS results. Of the 8 patients with infections, 7 recipients recovered, and 1 patient died of severe sepsis.ConclusionsOur preliminary results show that mNGS analyses can provide rapid and precise pathogen detection compared with TMs in a variety of clinical samples from patients undergoing LT. Combined with symptoms of clinical infection, mNGS showed superior advantages over TMs for the early identification and assistance in clinical decision-making for DDIs. mNGS results were critical for the management of perioperative infection in patients undergoing LT.

Abstract
Adenoviruses result in a wide array of clinical presentations, including primarily respiratory, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or systemic infections. Although adenovirus causes mild disease limited to a single organ system in immunocompetent individuals, severe and life-threatening infections do rarely occur. Disseminated disease and severe localized disease resulting in significant morbidity and mortality have been well described in the immunocompromised populations. Although asymptomatic viremia, respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal infections are the most common disease in most transplant patients, renal transplant patients more commonly experience urinary tract infections, including hemorrhagic cystitis or nephritis. Diagnosis requires astute clinical awareness of the patient's clinical presentation that would be compatible with adenovirus combined with cultures, molecular testing, polymerase chain reaction, and tissue sampling. There is no Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment for adenovirus; however, several studies have evaluated therapeutic options including cidofovir, brincidofovir, and immunotherapy. This article will summarize our current understanding of adenovirus in the transplant population.

Abstract
Solid organ transplantation is often lifesaving, but does carry an increased risk of infection. Respiratory viral infections are one of the most prevalent infections, and are a cause of significant morbidity and mortality, especially among lung transplant recipients. There is also data to suggest an association with acute rejection and chronic lung allograft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients. Respiratory viral infections can appear at any time post-transplant and are usually acquired in the community. All respiratory viral infections share similar clinical manifestations and are all currently diagnosed using nucleic acid testing. Influenza has good treatment options and prevention strategies, although these are hampered by resistance to neuraminidase inhibitors and lower vaccine immunogenicity in the transplant population. Other respiratory viruses, unfortunately, have limited treatments and preventive methods. This review summarizes the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, therapies and preventive measures for clinically significant RNA and DNA respiratory viruses, with the exception of SARS-CoV-2. This area is fast evolving and hopefully the coming decades will bring us new antivirals, immunologic treatments and vaccines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human adenovirus (HAdV) infections can lead to high mortality in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients, with rare reports of donor-derived infection. METHODS Two renal transplant recipients with HAdV-11 infection who received kidneys from the same donor are described. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed. RESULTS WGS showed 100% nucleotide sequence identity for the 2 HAdV-11 isolates. The patients presented with distinct clinical syndromes, and both were treated with brincidofovir. CONCLUSIONS Donor-derived HAdV infection is presumed to be low; however, disseminated HAdV in SOT recipients can be severe, and clinicians should be aware of the clinical course and treatment options.

Abstract
Adenovirus (AdV) infection is a common complication in bone marrow/hematopoietic stem cell transplant and solid organ transplant recipients. AdV infection usually presents as hemorrhagic cystitis, but sometimes it can progress to acute kidney injury showing AdV nephritis (AdVN). We present the case of a 52-year-old Japanese female who had received a living kidney transplantation (KT) from her husband. At 21 months post-KT, the patient presented with a fever, but no renal dysfunction and no abnormal urine findings. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a few mass lesions with hypoperfusion in the transplanted kidney. An enhanced CT-guided biopsy targeting one of these lesions revealed a necrotizing tubulointerstitial nephritis suggesting AdVN. The polymerase chain reaction tests for ADV were negative in a urine sample but positive in the sera and the frozen kidney biopsy samples. AdVN can manifest as an unusual pattern of acute lobar nephritis/acute focal bacterial nephritis-like localization without symptoms of acute kidney injury or urinary tract infection. Enhanced CT can provide clues for clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The clinical characteristics of various adenovirus (ADV) infection are underexplored up till now. To investigate the risk factors, manifestation, current status of ADV species, treatment and prognosis of this disease. METHODS We performed a Pubmed and Embase systematic review for case report reporting the ADV infection to analyze the clinical characteristics of disease. RESULTS Initial database searched identified articles of which 168 (228 cases) were included in the final analysis. Previous solid organ transplantation [odds ratio (OR) = 3.45, 95% CI 1.31-9.08, P = 0.01], hematopoietic stem cell transplant (OR = 4.24, 95% CI 1.33-13.51, P = 0.01) and hematological malignancy (OR = 4.78, 95% CI 1.70-13.46, P = 0.01) were associated with increased risk of disseminated ADV infection. Use of corticosteroids (OR = 3.86, 95% CI 1.21-12.24, P = 0.02) was a significant risk factor for acquiring urinary tract infections. A total of six species (21 types) of ADV infection have been identified in 100/228 (43.9%) cases. ADV B was the most common species. ADV B species (26/60, 52.0% or 5/41, 12.2% P = 0.001) were more isolated in patients with ADV pneumonia. ADV C (13/15, 86.7% versus 35/86, 40.7% P = 0.001) species were more identified in patients with disseminated disease. The species associated with keratoconjunctivitis is only ADV D in our analysis. Urinary tract ADV infections were observed in ADV A/B/D species. Cidofovir (CDV) (82/228, 36.0%) remained the most commonly antiviral therapy in our cases, followed by ribavirin (15/228, 6.6%), ganciclovir (18/228, 7.9%), and brincidofovir (12/228, 5.3%). Brincidofovir was administered as salvage therapy in 10 cases. Death was reported in 81/228 (35.5%) patients. Mortality rate was higher among patients with gastrointestinal (GI) ADV infection (5/10, 50.0%), ADV pneumonia (20/45, 44.4%) and disseminated ADV infection (53/122, 43.4%). CONCLUSION Previous solid organ transplantation, hematopoietic stem cell transplant and hematological malignancy were risk factors for disseminated ADV infection. Use of corticosteroids was significant for urinary tract ADV infection. Different species correlated with different clinical manifestations of infection. Mortality rate was higher among patients with GI disease, pneumonia and disseminated disease. Our review clarified the current treatment of ADV infections, and more treatment required further investigation.

Abstract
Human adenoviruses (HAdV) are well-known opportunistic pathogens of immunocompromised adult and pediatric patients but specific associations between HAdV species or individual HAdV types and disease are poorly understood. In this study we report the isolation of a novel HAdV-B2 genotype from two unrelated immunocompromised patients, both recipients of a hematopoietic cell transplant. In both patients, the course of HAdV infection is consistent with a scenario of reactivation of a latent virus rather than a primary opportunistic infection. Archived HAdV PCR-positive plasma, urine, and stool specimens were processed for virus isolation and detailed molecular characterization. Virus isolates were recovered from patient 1 from PCR-positive urine specimens obtained at days 103 and 116 after transplant in association with gross hematuria, and from a stool specimen obtained 138 days after transplant in association with diarrhea. An isolate was recovered from patient 2 from a PCR-positive urine specimen. Hexon and fiber gene amplification and sequencing were carried out for initial molecular typing, identifying the isolates as an intertypic recombinant with a HAdV-11-like hexon gene and a HAdV-77-like fiber gene. Comprehensive restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was performed on viral DNA purified from urine and stool isolates, and next generation whole genome sequencing was carried out on purified viral genomic DNA. The genomes of the two isolated strains are 99.5% identical and represent the same RFLP genomic variant. The identified virus is a novel HAdV-B2 genotype designated HAdV-78 exhibiting a HAdV-11-like penton base, a HAdV-11-like hexon and a HAdV-77-like fiber (P11H11F77). A novel HAdV-B2 type was isolated from 2 unrelated stem cell transplant recipients. The two isolated strains are 99.5% identical and represent the same genomic variant. The virus is an intertypic recombinant P11H11F77 designated HAdV-78. Genotype HAdV-78 is closely related to HAdV-77 with a 99% sequence similarity.
