RESUMO

Objective: The present study aimed to explore if bovine parvovirus (BPV) impacts beta interferon (IFN-β) production and to reveal further molecular mechanism of BPV immune escape. Method: The pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 recombinant plasmid was verified with both double-enzyme digestion and sequence. HEK 293 T cells were transfected with this recombinant protein and then infected with the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA were detected using qPCR. Results: The expression level of BPV VP1 mRNA in the pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 group was significantly higher than those of the untreated group (UT) and pCMV-Myc vector group. BPV virus copies in bovine turbinate (BT) cells of the BPV-VP1 group were raised (P < 0.05) with an increment of 5.8 × 104. Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA of the BPV VP1 group in HEK 293 T cells were decreased (P < 0.01). Following treatment of TBK1 and IRF3(5D), IFN-β expression levels in HEK 293 T cells were depressed. Additionally, expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS were less than those of the flag empty vector, respectively. Conclusion: pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 could heighten transcription levels of VP1 protein in BT cells, promote BPV proliferation, and ascend the production of IFN-β. Overexpression of pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP decreased IFN-β mRNA expression in HEK 293 T cells and inhibited IFN-β production induced by TBK1 and IRF3(5D). Furthermore, BPV VP1 obviously declined expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS in the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) pathway. Our findings revealed a novel mechanism evolved by BPV VP1 to inhibit type I IFN production and provided a solid scientific basis into the immunosuppression of BPV.(AU)

RESUMO

Background: We performed a retrospective trial to determine asymptomatic CMV reactivation and CMV disease in kidney allograft recipients with positive CMV serostatus. Methods: Preemptive modified strategy under low dose thymoglobulin versus basiliximab induction was evaluated. Patients were monitored by CMV-polymerase chain reaction (PCR); if the viral load was >4000copies/μl, they received valganciclovir adjusted for their renal function. Results: 132 recipients were included in the study, 84 and 48 receiving basiliximab and thymoglobulin induction respectively, and followed up for 12 months. Asymptomatic CMV reactivation was significantly higher for thymoglobulin (77.1% vs. 16.7%, p<0.001). Treatment groups had similar rates of CMV disease (3.6% vs. 2.1%, p 0.538). The significant difference in asymptomatic CMV reactivation between two treatment groups did not have any impact on 1 year graft function (71±26ml/min vs. 74±19ml/min; p=0.475) and no histological differences in protocol biopsies were observed among patients with asymptomatic CMV reactivation vs those without CMV reactivation. Conclusions: Due to the high asymptomatic CMV reactivation incidence in patients who received thymoglobulin induction, our results suggest that valganciclovir prophylaxis may be advantageous in CMV seropositive renal transplant recipients after low dose thymoglobulin induction. A preemptive strategy appeared to significantly reduce the likelihood of CMV disease in both groups. Rejection risk and negative impact in renal function associated with asymptomatic CMV reactivation was not found in our series. (AU)


Antecedentes: Llevamos a cabo un estudio retrospectivo para determinar la reactivación y enfermedad por CMV en receptores de trasplante renal CMV seropositivos bajo diferentes esquemas de inducción. Métodos: Una estrategia preventiva modificada bajo inducción con basiliximab y timoglobulina en dosis bajas fue evaluada. Se llevó a cabo un seguimiento de la carga viral-reacción de cadena de la polimerasa-CMV; los valores mayores de 4000 copias/μl recibieron valganciclovir ajustado a la función renal. Resultados: Un total de 132 receptores de trasplante renal fueron incluidos; 84 y 48 recibieron inducción con basiliximab y timoglobulina respectivamente. Seguimiento hasta el mes 12 postrasplante. La reactivación asintomática de CMV fue significativamente mayor para timoglobulina (77,1% vs. 16,7%, p<0,001). La tasa de enfermedad por CMV fue similar en ambos grupos de tratamiento (3,6% vs. 2,1%, p=0,538). Ningún impacto en la función renal un año postrasplante fue encontrado entre los grupos a pesar de la diferencia significativa en reactivación asintomática de CMV (71±26ml/min vs. 74±19ml/min; p=0,475); igualmente, no encontramos diferencias en los hallazgos histológicos en biopsias por protocolo entre receptores con reactivación asintomática por CMV y aquellos sin reactivación. Conclusiones: La alta incidencia de reactivación asintomática por CMV en receptores seropositivos a pesar del uso de bajas dosis de timoglobulina sugiere que la profilaxis con valganciclovir es una estrategia apropiada en este grupo; sin embargo, una estrategia preventiva reduce significativamente la probabilidad de enfermedad por CMV en ambos grupos de tratamiento. El riesgo de rechazo y el impacto negativo en la función renal asociado a la reactivación asintomática por CMV no fue encontrado en nuestra experiencia.

RESUMO

En la actualidad se emplean dos estrategias terapéuticas para prevenir el desarrollo de enfermedad orgánica por el CMV en el paciente trasplantado, la profilaxis universal y el tratamiento anticipado. Ambas son potencialmente optimizables. La primera, identificando con precisión a los pacientes con máximo riesgo de viremia con objeto de tratarlos selectivamente (profilaxis dirigida). En este sentido disponemos de marcadores genotípicos, biológicos en inmunológicos que podrían permitirlo. La segunda, a través de la monitorización conjunta de la carga viral del CMV en plasma y del nivel de LT CD8+ y CD4+ productores de IFN-g específicos frente al CMV (AU)


Currently, two therapeutic strategies are applied for preventing the development of CMV end-organ disease in transplant recipients: universal prophylaxis and preemptive antiviral therapy. Both are potentially optimable. As for the former strategy, precisely identifying patients at greatest risk of viremia would allow for a targeted prophylaxis. In this sense several genotypic, immunological and biological markers have been described that could be ancillary to that purpose. As for the latter strategy, combined monitoring of plasma CMV DNA load and peripheral levels of CMV-specific CD8 + and CD4 + IFN-γ producing T cells would permit a more rationale use of antivirals, thus avoiding overtreatment and derived toxicity (AU)

RESUMO

Hasta la fecha se han identificado más de 200 virus pertenecientes a 6 familias taxonómicas diferentes asociados con la infección del tracto respiratorio humano. La utilización generalizada de métodos moleculares en los laboratorios de microbiología clínica no sólo ha aportado grandes ventajas al diagnóstico de estas infecciones, sino también está permitiendo profundizar en el conocimiento de la enfermedad y el comportamiento epidemiológico de los virus causantes. Esta tecnología incrementa de manera notable el rendimiento de detección de virus en las muestras respiratorias, debido a su elevada sensibilidad en comparación con las técnicas clásicas y a la posibilidad de identificar virus no cultivables o de crecimiento fastidioso en las líneas celulares habituales, lo que permite realizar el diagnóstico etiológico con mayor rapidez. Sin embargo, también comporta algunos inconvenientes, como son detectar virus que se encuentran colonizando la mucosa respiratoria de personas asintomáticas, o en secreciones de pacientes que ya se han recuperado de una infección pasada, a consecuencia de excreción prolongada de éstos. La secuenciación de los productos obtenidos en la reacción de amplificación genómica permite caracterizar de forma adicional los virus detectados mediante su genotipado, realizar estudios de epidemiología molecular e identificar resistencias a determinados antivirales, por citar sólo algunos ejemplos(AU)


To date, more than two hundred viruses, belonging to six different taxonomic families, have been associated with human respiratory tract infection. The widespread incorporation of molecular methods into clinical microbiology laboratories has not only led to notable advances in the etiological diagnosis of viral respiratory infections but has also increased insight into the pathology and epidemiological profiles of the causative viruses. Because of their high sensitivity, molecular techniques markedly increase the efficiency of viral detection in respiratory specimens, particularly those that fail to propagate successfully in common cell cultures, thus allowing more rapid etiologic diagnosis. However, there are also some disadvantages in the use of these new technologies such as detection of viruses that merely colonize the respiratory tract of healthy people, or those found in the nasopharyngeal secretions of patients who have recovered from respiratory infections, due to longterm viral shedding, when the viruses are unlikely to act as pathogens. Additionally, sequencing of the amplification products allows further characterization of detected viruses, including molecular epidemiology, genotyping, or detection of antiviral resistance, to cite only a few examples(AU)
