Abstract
Anticancer treatments can result in various adverse effects, including infections due to immune suppression/dysregulation and drug-induced toxicity in the lung. One of the major opportunistic infections is Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP), which can cause severe respiratory complications and high mortality rates. Cytotoxic drugs and immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can induce interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). Nonetheless, the differentiation of these diseases can be difficult, and the pathogenic mechanisms of such diseases are not yet fully understood. To better comprehend the immunophenotypes, we conducted an exploratory mass cytometry analysis of immune cell subsets in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with PCP, cytotoxic drug-induced ILD (DI-ILD), and ICI-associated ILD (ICI-ILD) using two panels containing 64 markers. In PCP, we observed an expansion of the CD16+ T cell population, with the highest CD16+ T proportion in a fatal case. In ICI-ILD, we found an increase in CD57+ CD8+ T cells expressing immune checkpoints (TIGIT+ LAG3+ TIM-3+ PD-1+), FCRL5+ B cells, and CCR2+ CCR5+ CD14+ monocytes. These findings uncover the diverse immunophenotypes and possible pathomechanisms of cancer treatment-related pneumonitis.

Comparison of the Single Cell Immune Landscape between Subjects with High Mycobacterium tuberculosis Bacillary Loads during Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Household Members with Latent Tuberculosis Infection. Cells 2024; 13:362. [PMID: 38391975 PMCID: PMC10887672 DOI: 10.3390/cells13040362] [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: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
It is unclear how the immune system controls the transition from latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) to active pulmonary infection (PTB). Here, we applied mass spectrometry cytometry time-of-flight (CyTOF) analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to compare the immunological landscapes in patients with high tuberculous bacillary load PTB infections and LTBI. A total of 32 subjects (PTB [n = 12], LTBI [n = 17], healthy volunteers [n = 3]) were included. Participants with active PTBs were phlebotomized before administering antituberculosis treatment, whereas participants with LTBI progressed to PTB at the time of household screening. In the present study, CyTOF analysis identified significantly higher percentages of mucosal-associated invariant natural killer T (MAIT NKT) cells in subjects with LTBI than in those with active PTB and healthy controls. Moreover, 6 of 17 (35%) subjects with LTBI progressed to active PTB (LTBI progression) and had higher proportions of MAIT NKT cells and early NKT cells than those without progression (LTBI non-progression). Subjects with LTBI progression also showed a tendency toward low B cell levels relative to other subject groups. In conclusion, MAIT NKT cells were substantially more prevalent in subjects with LTBI, particularly those with progression to active PTB.

Abstract
Evaluating therapy efficacy is crucial for patients with tuberculosis (TB), especially those with drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB). The World Health Organization currently recommends sputum smear and culture as the standard methods for evaluating pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) therapy efficacy. However, these approaches have limitations including low sensitivity, lengthy culture periods, and susceptibility to contamination. There is an urgent need for dependable biomarkers to evaluate therapy efficacy in patients with PTB. Numerous new biomarkers of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and the host have been used in recent studies to evaluate PTB therapy efficacy. A systematic review and update of these biomarkers can facilitate the discovery of novel biomarkers and assessment models, as well as provide a solid scientific basis for alternative indicators of evaluating therapy efficacy. In this review we summarize the recent advancements and limitations of biomarkers used to monitor therapy efficacy, highlighting the importance of utilizing a combination of biomarkers. Although some biomarkers have potential in evaluating the efficacy of therapy in patients with PTB, they also have some limitations. Further research, validation, and optimization are required to identify the most reliable and effective alternative biomarkers and apply them to clinical practice.

Plasma host protein signatures correlating with Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity prior to and during antituberculosis treatment. Sci Rep 2022; 12:20640.

Abstract
There is a need for rapid non-sputum-based tests to identify and treat patients infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The overall objective of this study was to measure and compare the expression of a selected panel of human plasma proteins in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (ATB) throughout anti-TB treatment (from baseline to the end of treatment), in Mtb-infected individuals (TBI) and healthy donors (HD) to identify a putative host-protein signature useful for both TB diagnosis and treatment monitoring. A panel of seven human host proteins CLEC3B, SELL, IGFBP3, IP10, CD14, ECM1 and C1Q were measured in the plasma isolated from an HIV-negative prospective cohort of 37 ATB, 24 TBI and 23 HD. The protein signatures were assessed using a Luminex xMAP® to quantify the plasmatic levels in unstimulated blood of the different clinical group as well as the protein levels at baseline and at three timepoints during the 6-months ATB treatment, to compare the plasma protein levels between culture slow and fast converters that may contribute to monitor the TB treatment outcome. Protein signatures were defined using the CombiROC algorithm and multivariate models. The studied plasma host proteins showed different levels between the clinical groups and during the TB treatment. Six of the plasma proteins (CLEC3B, SELL, IGFBP3, IP10, CD14 and C1Q) showed significant differences in normalised median fluorescence intensities when comparing ATB vs HD or TBI groups while ECM1 revealed a significant difference between fast and slow sputum culture converters after 2 months following treatment (p = 0.006). The expression of a four-host protein markers (CLEC3B-ECM1-IP10-SELL) was significantly different between ATB from HD or TBI groups (respectively, p < 0.05). The expression of the same signature was significantly different between the slow vs the fast sputum culture converters after 2 months of treatment (p < 0.05). The results suggest a promising 4 host-plasma marker signature that would be associated with both TB diagnostic and treatment monitoring.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:998972. [PMID: 36186786 PMCID: PMC9515406 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.998972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Tuberculosis (TB) treatment requires the combination of multiple anti-TB drugs during 6 months or more depending on strain drug susceptibility profile. Optimizing the monitoring of anti-TB therapy efficacy is required to provide adequate care and prevent drug resistance emergence. Moreover, accurate monitoring tools are needed for the development of strategies aiming at reducing treatment duration. Opti-4TB is a “proof of concept” study aiming at developing a blood-based monitoring of TB outcome by deciphering host immune signatures associated with latency or disease activity through the combination of “omic” methods. The primary objective is to assess the performances of new biomarkers for TB outcome prediction and to determine specific profiles associated with the outcome of treated TB patients. Methods and analysis Opti-4TB is a prospective, single center study including adult patients hospitalized for pulmonary TB. A workflow will be set up to study the immune status of 40 TB patients and 20 controls with latent TB infection. Blood samples will be collected at four timepoints: before treatment initiation (V1), at day 15 (V2), at 2 months (V3) and at 6 months (V4). Mtb-specific immune responses will be assessed at each timepoint with three different assays: (1) A whole blood transcriptomic signature assessing the “RISK-6” score; (2) A proteomic signature based on 27 cytokines and chemokines measured in plasma; (3) An immunophenotypic monitoring of circulating T-cell subpopulations using spectral flow cytometry. This in depth characterization of Mtb-specific immune response throughout the treatment, correlated with clinical outcomes, will lay the basis for the elaboration of the most basic and universal stage-specific immune signatures associated with latency, active disease and cure. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval has been obtained from the institutional review board (n°69HCL18_0757). Results will be communicated at scientific meetings and submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals. Trial registration number NCT04271397.
