Abstract
Introduction Les confinements mis en place au cours de l’année 2020 dans le cadre de la crise sanitaire liée à la pandémie de la COVID-19, ont entraîné une diminution conséquente des recours aux consultations et des actes médicaux. Quel en a été l’impact sur le dépistage et les nouveaux cas d’infections par le VIH dans notre centre ? Matériels et méthodes Les données ont été recueillies à partir des Déclarations Obligatoires d’infection par le VIH faites par le laboratoire de virologie d’un hôpital du Nord de Paris et à partir de la base NADIS® du 01/01/2019 au 31/12/2020. Le nombre de demandes de dépistage du VIH, l’incidence annuelle, semestrielle, ainsi que les caractéristiques des patients ont été comparés entre 2019 et 2020. Résultats Le nombre total de dépistages VIH était égal à 6539 en 2019 versus (vs) 5141 en 2020, soit une réduction de 21 %. Les prescriptions au CeGIDD représentent la plus forte diminution (34 %) sur notre site, passant de 4351 en 2019 à 2882 en 2020. Le nombre total de nouveaux patients diagnostiqués VIH positifs était de 212 en 2019 et 103 en 2020, soit une réduction de 52 %. Le pourcentage de patients séropositifs sur le nombre total de dépistages était de 212/6539 (3,24 %) en 2019 vs 103/5141 (2,0 %) en 2020 (p < 0,001). L’analyse par semestre montre que le pourcentage de patients nouvellement diagnostiqués au cours du premier semestre était de 127/212 (60 %) en 2019 vs 48/103 (47 %) en 2020 (p < 0,05). Les caractéristiques de ces patients n’étaient pas significativement différentes entre les 2 années: sexe ratio homme/femme de 2,48 en 2019 vs 2,16 en 2020, âge médian de 36 ans [17-73] en 2019 vs 35 ans [21-81] en 2020, pourcentage de patients avec des CD4 < 500 mm3 de 75 % (159/212) en 2019 vs 73 % (75/103) en 2020, délai de mise sous traitement inférieur à 1 semaine de 17 % (37/212) en 2019 vs 22 % (23/103) en 2020, transmission HSH de 44 % (93/212) en 2019 vs 49 % (50/103) en 2020. Conclusion Dans notre centre, l’accès au dépistage de l’infection VIH a été considérablement réduit au cours de l’année 2020 du fait de la pandémie de la COVID-19. Cette réduction a été plus marquée au premier semestre en rapport avec la sévérité du premier confinement et s’est principalement faite aux dépens du dépistage réalisé en CeGGID, traduisant une limitation de l’offre de soins hors COVID-19 et/ou une diminution de l’exposition au VIH dans la population générale. Ces résultats ne doivent pas être interprétés comme une diminution de l’épidémie du VIH mais comme une sous-estimation liée à un manque d’informations. Des actions de dépistage doivent être déployées afin de limiter les diagnostics tardifs.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have great potential as biomarkers since their composition and concentration in biofluids are disease state dependent and their cargo can contain disease-related information. Large tumor-derived EVs (tdEVs, >1 μm) in blood from cancer patients are associated with poor outcome, and changes in their number can be used to monitor therapy effectiveness. Whereas, small tumor-derived EVs (<1 μm) are likely to outnumber their larger counterparts, thereby offering better statistical significance, identification and quantification of small tdEVs are more challenging. In the blood of cancer patients, a subpopulation of EVs originate from tumor cells, but these EVs are outnumbered by non-EV particles and EVs from other origin. In the Dutch NWO Perspectief Cancer-ID program, we developed and evaluated detection and characterization techniques to distinguish EVs from non-EV particles and other EVs. Despite low signal amplitudes, we identified characteristics of these small tdEVs that may enable the enumeration of small tdEVs and extract relevant information. The insights obtained from Cancer-ID can help to explore the full potential of tdEVs in the clinic.

Abstract
Ultrasound-triggered drug-loaded microbubbles have great potential for drug delivery due to their ability to locally release drugs and simultaneously enhance their delivery into the target tissue. We have recently shown that upon applying ultrasound, nanoparticle-loaded microbubbles can deposit nanoparticles onto cells grown in 2D monolayers, through a process that we termed "sonoprinting". However, the rigid surfaces on which cell monolayers are typically growing might be a source of acoustic reflections and aspherical microbubble oscillations, which can influence microbubble-cell interactions. In the present study, we aim to reveal whether sonoprinting can also occur in more complex and physiologically relevant tissues, by using free-floating 3D tumor spheroids as a tissue model. We show that both monospheroids (consisting of tumor cells alone) and cospheroids (consisting of tumor cells and fibroblasts, which produce an extracellular matrix) can be sonoprinted. Using doxorubicin-liposome-loaded microbubbles, we show that sonoprinting allows to deposit large amounts of doxorubicin-containing liposomes to the outer cell layers of the spheroids, followed by doxorubicin release into the deeper layers of the spheroids, resulting in a significant reduction in cell viability. Sonoprinting may become an attractive approach to deposit drug patches at the surface of tissues, thereby promoting the delivery of drugs into target tissues.

Abstract
We report a medium throughput device to study the effects of combinations of two mechanical stimuli - surface strains and fluid flow shear stresses, on cells. The first generation prototype can screen combinations of five strain and five shear stress levels. Computational modeling and empirical measurements were used to determine the generated strains and flows. Uniform equibiaxial strains up to 20% and shear stresses up to 0.3 Pa can be generated. Compatibility of the device with cell culture and end point fixation, staining and imaging is shown using C2C12 mouse myoblast cells.

Abstract
Human embryo culture media, intended for assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), are released for clinical use if they pass the mouse embryo assay (MEA). This assay prescribes that at least 70% of in vivo fertilized mouse 1-cell embryos form blastocysts, in order to grant the culture medium approval. In the fertility clinic, however, human embryos undergo more manipulation than their MEA counterparts through, for example, fertilization by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI); further, only a minority of the embryos transferred to the uterus goes on to establish gestations. In this context, we asked if the results of the MEA only depend on the type of in vitro culture, or are also affected by the method of fertilization. Superovulated B6C3F1 mouse oocytes were fertilized by ICSI using C57Bl/6 sperm. Pronuclear-stage eggs were allocated to four developmental environments: two ART culture protocols (HTF/MultiBlast, Irvine Scientific; ISM1/ISM2, Origio), standard mouse culture medium (KSOM(aa), made in-house) and the oviduct of pseudopregnant CD1 mice. As control for the invasive manipulation, pronuclear-stage eggs were generated by mating (B6C3F1 × C57Bl/6) and cultured in KSOM(aa) medium. Embryos were recovered from culture or from the CD1 uterus and scored for blastocyst formation at 96 h of development (Table 1). For these blastocysts, we determined the number of total, inner cell mass (ICM), and trophectoderm (TE) cells (Table 1) by confocal immunofluorescence microscopy (Schwarzer et al. 2012 doi:10.1093/humrep/des223). Our results show that ART culture protocols applied to mouse ICSI embryos are not equivalent in supporting blastocyst formation. Based on blastocyst rates, the ranking observed here after ICSI, reflects the ranking reported by us for IVF embryos (Schwarzer et al. 2012); that is, KSOM(aa) > HTF/MultiBlast > oviduct > ISM1/2. This similarity suggests that the effect of in vitro culture on mouse development exceeds the effect of ICSI, provided gametes are of good quality. From the analysis of cell numbers, we note that while the ICM/TE ratios are not of easy interpretation, the absolute numbers of cells in the ICM draw a clear line between the environment of the oviduct and those of culture media. Irrespective of the ICM/TE ratio, only the oviduct environment secures 8 cells in the ICM (Table 1). Soriano and Jaenisch (1986 Cell 46, 19–29) reported that 8 cells of the ICM are set aside to give rise to the body of a mouse. In summary, the current MEA is a valuable assay to assess the quality of culture medium, however, its refinement is necessary to better model the adaptive properties of embryo culture when different methods of fertilization are applied. Until the MEA is extended into postimplantation development, as we advocate (Schwarzer et al. 2012), the absolute numbers of cells in the ICM may be a better gauge of embryo quality than the blastocyst rates.

Abstract
To identify HLA-DR-binding peptides within the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 proteins. 95 overlapping synthetic peptides representing the entire sequence of gp120-LAI were screened for their capacity to bind to two HLA-DR molecules with distant sequences (DR0401 and DR1101). By using a cell surface competitive binding assay, 56 DR-binding peptides were identified, of which 35 bound to both DR1101 and DR0401. A highly significant concordance was evidenced by statistical analysis between binding of peptides to one and to the other DR molecule, suggesting a high proportion of promiscuity among gp120 peptides, even though no clear sequence pattern accounting for such promiscuity was found. DR-binding peptides were located along the entire gp120 sequence. Yet, the majority of them (42 among 56) were concentrated in seven multiagretopic regions that were arbitrarily defined as regions containing four or more overlapping continuous peptides binding to DR1011 and/or DR0401. A good correlation was found between DR-binding regions or DR-binding peptides defined in this study and promiscuous T helper gp120 epitopes previously described in seropositive individuals. All these results suggest that the identification of multiagretopic DR-binding regions may be a great help for the predicition of protein determinants that have the likelihood of being promiscuous T helper epitopes in humans.

Abstract
Expression of IL-2, interferon-gamma, and IL-3 mRNA and proteins was investigated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from cord blood after activation with phytohemagglutinin, CD2, or CD3 MAb. The results showed that interferon-gamma and IL-3 expression was decreased in cord peripheral blood mononuclear cells when compared with expression observed in adult peripheral blood mononuclear cells, irrespective of the stimulation used. In addition, in newborn cells a defect in IL-2 secretion and mRNA expression was observed in response to CD2 or CD3 MAb but not in response to phytohemagglutinin-mediated activation. We further analyzed the modulation of nonlymphokine genes under the same protocol of stimulations. The results indicate that in newborn cells, despite a reduced lymphokine expression observed after CD2 or CD3 MAb activation, the up-regulation of the T-cell receptor, CD8, and p56lck was similar to that found in adult cells, as was also found after phytohemagglutinin activation of both types of cells. These data are in favor of a deficient T-cell responsiveness to CD2 or CD3 MAb in newborn cells. This impairment of the T-cell response appears to selectively affect lymphokine gene expression because the modulation of other genes also implicated in T cell activation is not altered.

Abstract
In the present study, we explored the specific requirements for lysis of human activated T cells by CD4+ CTLs. This was achieved by using human CD4+ T cell lines or clones specific for a peptidic fragment of influenza virus as both CTL effectors and target T cells (TTCs). Our results further establish that human activated T cells expressing HLA-DR molecules can present Ag to and be lysed by CD4+ HLA-DR restricted CTLs. This killing is Ag specific and HLA-DR restricted. It can be observed whether TTCs are heterologous or autologous, CD4+ or CD8+. However, we find that in our model: (a) TTCs are able to present artificially processed peptidic fragments of Ag, but not the corresponding natural Ag in the context of class II determinants, even if they can process whole virus in the context of class I determinants; (b) TTCs must express high density of HLA-DR molecules on their membrane; (c) preincubation of TTCs with high concentrations of peptide is required; and (d) interestingly enough, addition of free peptide at similar concentration during the cytolytic assay to replace TTC preincubation inhibits TTC lysis by at least two different mechanisms, i.e., cold-target inhibition in which CTLs serve as their own cold targets and inhibition at the effector cell level. From these results, one can conclude that stringent conditions are required for lysis of activated T cells by class-II-restricted CTLs.

Abstract
The ontogeny of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells' responsiveness to various activators during childhood was studied and compared to the expression of CDw29 and CD45RA molecules at the surface of CD4+ T cells. The results show that newborn peripheral blood mononuclear cells are characterized by a responsiveness to mitogens that is higher than that observed in adults, at least shortly after stimulation. This contrasts with a clear decreased response to CD2 and CD3 MAb at any time after stimulation. These functional characteristics correlate with a low density of CDw29 antigen on virtually all CD4+ T cells and a high density of CD45RA antigen on most CD4+ T cells at birth. These patterns of reactivity and phenotype are similar to those found among naive adult T cells. When ageing, the response to mitogens becomes rapidly similar to the adult's values, whereas the responses to CD2 or CD3 MAb are more gradually acquired. This slow rate of functional changes grossly parallels the increase of CDw29+ CD4+ and the decrease of CD45RA+ CD4+ T cell subsets. These changes finally lead to the immunophenotypic and functional characteristics that are typical of adult memory T cells. These results suggest that iterative antigenic stimulations both induce memory T cells and create the conditions to improve the overall immune competence.
