Abstract
Background and aims It is necessary to identify simple biomarkers that can efficiently predict the efficacy of long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), especially in underdeveloped countries. We characterized the dynamic changes in plasma interleukin-18 (IL-18) and assessed its performance as a predictor of long-term virological response. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of HIV-1-infected patients enrolled in a randomized controlled trial with a follow-up of 144 weeks of ART. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to evaluate plasma IL-18. Long-term virological response was defined as HIV-1 RNA <20 copies/mL at week 144. Results Among the 173 enrolled patients, the long-term virological response rate was 93.1%. Patients with a long-term virological response had significantly lower levels of week 24 IL-18 than non-responders. We defined 64 pg./mL, with a maximum sum of sensitivity and specificity, as the optimal cutoff value of week 24 IL-18 level to predict long-term virological response. After adjusting for age, gender, baseline CD4+ T-cell count, baseline CD4/CD8 ratio, baseline HIV-1 RNA level, HIV-1 genotype and treatment strategy, we found that lower week 24 IL-18 level (≤64 vs. >64 pg./mL, a OR 19.10, 95% CI: 2.36-154.80) was the only independent predictor of long-term virological response. Conclusion Early on-treatment plasma IL-18 could act as a promising indicator for long-term virological response in patients with HIV-1 infection. Chronic immune activation and inflammation may represent a potential mechanism; further validation is necessary.

Pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators of inflammation in HIV: effect of aspirin intervention. EBioMedicine 2023; 89:104468. [PMID: 36791659 PMCID: PMC10025757 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2023.104468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Revised: 12/25/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Persons with HIV (PWH) have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to HIV-seronegative individuals (SN). Inflammation contributes to this risk but the role of lipid mediators, with central roles in inflammation, in HIV infection remain to be established; further aspirin reduces CVD risk in the general population through production of some of these anti-inflammatory lipid mediators, but they have not been studied in PWH. METHODS We evaluated the relationship between plasma lipid mediators (i.e. 50 lipid mediators including classic eicosanoids and specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs)) and HIV status; and the impact of aspirin in PWH on regulating these autacoids. Plasma samples were obtained from 110 PWH receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) from a randomized trial of aspirin (ACTG-A5331) and 107 matched SN samples (MACS-WIHS Combined Cohort). FINDINGS PWH had lower levels of arachidonic acid-derived pro-inflammatory prostaglandins (PGs: PGE2 and PGD2) and thromboxanes (Tx: TxB2), and higher levels of select pro-resolving lipid mediators (e.g. RvD4 and MaR2n-3 DPA) compared to SN. At the interval tested, aspirin intervention was observed to reduced PGs and Tx, and while we did not observe an increase in aspirin triggered mediators, we observed the upregulation of other SPM in aspirin treated PWH, namely MaR2n-3 DPA. INTERPRETATION Together these observations demonstrate that plasma lipid mediators profiles, some with links to systemic inflammation and CVD risk, become altered in PWH. Furthermore, aspirin intervention did not increase levels of aspirin-triggered pro-resolving lipid mediators, consistent with other reports of an impaired aspirin response in PWH. FUNDING NIH.

Abstract
Carotenoids are natural lipophilic pigments and antioxidants that are present in many fruits and vegetables. The consumption of carotenoids is correlated with positive health effects and a decreased risk of several chronic diseases. Provitamin A carotenoids (β-carotene, α-carotene, γ-carotene, and β-cryptoxanthin) are essential for the development and maintenance of sight. β-carotene, α-carotene, zeaxanthin, β-cryptoxanthin, lutein, and lycopene have high antioxidant activity and promote free radical scavenging, which helps protect against chronic diseases. However, carotenoids are chemically unstable and prone to oxidation in the presence of light, heat, oxygen, acids, and metal ions. The use of carotenoids in the food industry is limited due to their poor solubility in water, bioavailability and quick release. Encapsulation techniques, such as microencapsulation, nanoencapsulation and supercritical encapsulation, are used to overcome these problems. The objective of this paper is to describe the characteristics and potential health benefits of carotenoids and advances in encapsulation techniques for protecting and enhancing their solubility or bioavailability.

Malnutrition leads to increased inflammation and expression of tuberculosis risk signatures in recently exposed household contacts of pulmonary tuberculosis. Front Immunol 2022; 13:1011166. [PMID: 36248906 PMCID: PMC9554585 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.1011166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Most individuals exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) develop latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and remain at risk for progressing to active tuberculosis disease (TB). Malnutrition is an important risk factor driving progression from LTBI to TB. However, the performance of blood-based TB risk signatures in malnourished individuals with LTBI remains unexplored. The aim of this study was to determine if malnourished and control individuals had differences in gene expression, immune pathways and TB risk signatures. Methods We utilized data from 50 tuberculin skin test positive household contacts of persons with TB - 18 malnourished participants (body mass index [BMI] < 18.5 kg/m2) and 32 controls (individuals with BMI ≥ 18.5 kg/m2). Whole blood RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Ingenuity Pathway Analysis was applied to the DEGs to identify top canonical pathways and gene regulators. Gene enrichment methods were then employed to score the performance of published gene signatures associated with progression from LTBI to TB. Results Malnourished individuals had increased activation of inflammatory pathways, including pathways involved in neutrophil activation, T-cell activation and proinflammatory IL-1 and IL-6 cytokine signaling. Consistent with known association of inflammatory pathway activation with progression to TB disease, we found significantly increased expression of the RISK4 (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.734) and PREDICT29 (AUC = 0.736) progression signatures in malnourished individuals. Conclusion Malnourished individuals display a peripheral immune response profile reflective of increased inflammation and a concomitant increased expression of risk signatures predicting progression to TB. With validation in prospective clinical cohorts, TB risk biomarkers have the potential to identify malnourished LTBI for targeted therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are limited studies on the association of HIV infection with systemic inflammation during pregnancy. DESIGN A cohort study (N = 220) of pregnant women with HIV (N = 70) (all on antiretroviral therapy) and without HIV (N = 150) were enrolled from an antenatal clinic in Pune, India. METHODS The following systemic inflammatory markers were measured in plasma samples using immunoassays: soluble CD163 (sCD163), soluble CD14 (sCD14), intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP), C-reactive protein (CRP), alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), interferon-β (IFNβ), interferon-γ (IFNγ), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-13, IL-17A, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα). Generalized estimating equation (GEE) and linear regression models were used to assess the association of HIV status with each inflammatory marker during pregnancy and by trimester, respectively. RESULTS Pregnant women with HIV had higher levels of markers for gut barrier dysfunction (I-FABP), monocyte activation (sCD14) and markers of systemic inflammation (IL-6 and TNFα), but surprisingly lower levels of AGP, an acute phase protein, compared with pregnant women without HIV, with some trimester-specific differences. CONCLUSION Our data show that women with HIV had higher levels of markers of gut barrier dysfunction, monocyte activation and systemic inflammation. These markers, some of which are associated with preterm birth, might help explain the increase in adverse birth outcomes in women with HIV and could suggest targets for potential interventions.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) accounts for disproportionate morbidity and mortality among persons living with HIV (PLWH). Conventional methods of TB diagnosis, including smear microscopy and Xpert MTB/RIF, have lower sensitivity in PLWH. Novel high-throughput approaches, such as miRNAomics and metabolomics, may advance our ability to recognize subclinical and difficult-to-diagnose TB, especially in very advanced HIV. We conducted a case-control study leveraging REMEMBER, a multi-country, open-label randomized controlled trial comparing 4-drug empiric standard TB treatment with isoniazid preventive therapy in PLWH initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART) with CD4 cell counts <50 cells/μL. Twenty-three cases of incident TB were site-matched with 32 controls to identify microRNAs (miRNAs), metabolites, and cytokines/chemokines, associated with the development of newly diagnosed TB in PLWH. Differentially expressed miRNA analysis revealed 11 altered miRNAs with a fold change higher than 1.4 or lower than -1.4 in cases relative to controls (p<0.05). Our analysis revealed no differentially abundant metabolites between cases and controls. We found higher TNFα and IP-10/CXCL10 in cases (p=0.011, p=0.0005), and higher MDC/CCL22 in controls (p=0.0072). A decision-tree algorithm identified gamma-glutamylthreonine and hsa-miR-215-5p as the optimal variables to classify incident TB cases (AUC 0.965; 95% CI 0.925-1.000). hsa-miR-215-5p, which targets genes in the TGF-β signaling pathway, was downregulated in cases. Gamma-glutamylthreonine, a breakdown product of protein catabolism, was less abundant in cases. To our knowledge, this is one of the first uses of a multi-omics approach to identify incident TB in severely immunosuppressed PLWH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (CD4 < 50) remain at high risk of tuberculosis (TB) or death despite the initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART). We aimed to identify immunological profiles that were most predictive of incident TB disease and death. METHODS The REMEMBER randomized clinical trial enrolled 850 participants with HIV (CD4 < 50 cells/µL) at ART initiation to receive either empiric TB treatment or isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT). A case-cohort study (n = 257) stratified by country and treatment arm was performed. Cases were defined as incident TB or all-cause death within 48 weeks after ART initiation. Using multiplexed immunoassay panels and ELISA, 26 biomarkers were assessed in plasma. RESULTS In total, 52 (6.1%) of 850 participants developed TB; 47 (5.5%) died (13 of whom had antecedent TB). Biomarkers associated with incident TB overlapped with those associated with death (interleukin [IL]-1β, IL-6). Biomarker levels declined over time in individuals with incident TB while remaining persistently elevated in those who died. Dividing the cohort into development and validation sets, the final model of 6 biomarkers (CXCL10, IL-1β, IL-10, sCD14, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, and TNF-β) achieved a sensitivity of 0.90 (95% confidence interval [CI]: .87-.94) and a specificity of 0.71(95% CI: .68-.75) with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.81 (95% CI: .78-.83) for incident TB. CONCLUSION Among people with advanced HIV, a parsimonious inflammatory biomarker signature predicted those at highest risk for developing TB despite initiation of ART and TB preventive therapies. The signature may be a promising stratification tool to select patients who may benefit from increased monitoring and novel interventions. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NCT01380080.

Abstract
HIV-infected patients are at high risk for developing critical diseases,
including opportunistic infections (OI), with consequent admission in intensive
care units (ICU). Renal disfunctions are risk factors for death in HIV/AIDS
patients, and survival rates in patients undergoing hemodialysis are smaller
than the ones observed in the general population. In this context, this study
aimed to investigate death-related factors in HIV/AIDS patients in an intensive
care setting. This is a retrospective cross-sectional study performed through
the analysis of medical records from 271 HIV/AIDS-diagnosed patients
hospitalized in an intensive care unit of an infectious disease hospital, in
Fortaleza, Ceara State, Brazil. Patients were divided into two groups: those who
underwent dialysis during hospitalization and those who did not. Clinical and
demographic parameters that could be associated with death were evaluated.
Results indicated a prevalence of death of 19.1% (CI 95%: 14.8-24.3). The median
age of patients was 47 years, with a male predominance (71.3%). The main causes
of admission were pulmonary tuberculosis (16.9%), followed by neurotoxoplasmosis
(14.9%). In the bivariate analysis, for those that did not undergo dialysis,
age, fever, dyspnea, oliguria, disorientation, kidney injury, use of lamivudine
and efavirenz, length of hospitalization, CD4 count, WBC count, platelet count,
urea, sodium and LDH levels were the associated variables. In those who needed
dialysis, the use of stavudine, abacavir and ritonavir, and the length of
hospitalization were associated factors. Renal toxicity by the antiretroviral
agents and length of hospitalization increased the risk of death among HIV
patients under dialysis.

Abstract
Individuals with concurrent tuberculosis (TB) and Type 2 diabetes (DM) have a higher risk of adverse outcomes. To better understand potential immunological differences, we utilized a comprehensive panel to characterize pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving (i.e., mediators involved in the resolution of inflammation) lipid mediators in individuals with TB and TB-DM. A nested cross-sectional study of 40 individuals (20 newly diagnosed DM and 20 without DM) was conducted within a cohort of individuals with active drug-susceptible treatment-naïve pulmonary TB. Lipid mediators were quantified in serum samples through lipid mediator profiling. We conducted correlation-based analysis of these mediators. Overall, the arachidonic acid-derived leukotriene and prostaglandin families were the most abundant pro-inflammatory lipid mediators, while lipoxins and maresins families were the most abundant pro-resolving lipid mediators in individuals with TB and TB-DM. Individuals with TB-DM had increased correlations and connectivity with both pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators compared to those with TB alone. We identified the most abundant lipid mediator metabolomes in circulation among individuals with TB and TB-DM; in addition, our data shows a substantial number of significant correlations between both pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators in individuals with TB-DM, delineating a molecular balance that potentially defines this comorbidity.

Autenrieth CS, Beck EJ, Stelzle D, Mallouris C, Mahy M, Ghys P. Global and regional trends of people living with HIV aged 50 and over: Estimates and projections for 2000-2020. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0207005. [PMID: 30496302 PMCID: PMC6264840 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0207005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 158] [Impact Index Per Article: 26.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2018] [Accepted: 10/23/2018] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The increasing numbers of people living with HIV (PLHIV) who are receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) have near normal life-expectancy, resulting in more people living with HIV over the age of 50 years (PLHIV50+). Estimates of the number of PLHIV50+ are needed for the development of tailored therapeutic and prevention interventions at country, regional and global level. METHODS The AIDS Impact Module of the Spectrum software was used to compute the numbers of PLHIV, new infections, and AIDS-related deaths for PLHIV50+ for the years 2000-2016. Projections until 2020 were calculated based on an assumed ART scale-up to 81% coverage by 2020, consistent with the UNAIDS 90-90-90 treatment targets. RESULTS Globally, there were 5.7 million [4.7 million- 6.6 million] PLHIV50+ in 2016. The proportion of PLHIV50+ increased substantially from 8% in 2000 to 16% in 2016 and is expected to increase to 21% by 2020. In 2016, 80% of PLHIV50+ lived in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with Eastern and Southern Africa containing the largest number of PLHIV50+. While the proportion of PLHIV50+ was greater in high income countries, LMICs have higher numbers of PLHIV50+ that are expected to continue to increase by 2020. CONCLUSIONS The number of PLHIV50+ has increased dramatically since 2000 and this is expected to continue by 2020, especially in LMICs. HIV prevention campaigns, testing and treatment programs should also focus on the specific needs of PLHIV50+. Integrated health and social services should be developed to cater for the changing physical, psychological and social needs of PLHIV50+, many of whom will need to use HIV and non-HIV services.
