RESUMO

Objective:To investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics of HIV-1 infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Jiaxing city, and provide methods and ideas for the prevention and control of HIV-1 infection.Methods:This study retrospectively collected the blood samples from all newly reported cases of HIV-1 infection among MSM without antiviral treatment from 2020 to 2022. HIV-1 pol genes in the blood samples were amplified and sequenced. MEGA v6.0 software was used to analyze nucleic acid sequences. A phylogenetic tree was constructed to analyze HIV-1 subtypes. The calibrated population resistance program (CPR) was used to detect drug-resistant mutations. After calculating the genetic distance between gene sequences, molecular transmission networks were constructed using Cytoscape v3.6.0 software. Results:A total of nine genetic subtypes were identified, with CRF07_BC (43.3%) and CRF01_AE (36.9%) accounting for the most. The recombinant forms that were not clustered with the reference subtype accounted for 5.0%. Drug-resistant mutations were identified in 21 cases (7.0%), and the mutation rates among strains of CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE subtypes were 8.2% and 7.8%, respectively. The detection rates of drug-resistant mutations to protease inhibitors, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors were 1.7%, 0.7% and 4.7%, respectively. The optimal genetic distance threshold of the molecular network was 0.018. At this genetic distance, the molecular network access rate was 43.3%, and 38 molecular clusters (ranging from 2 to 26 nodes per cluster) were included. Cases with ≥6 homosexual partners and a degree value of ≥4 were more likely to access the active molecular cluster. The population of high-risk transmission cases with TNS>0.75 were mainly nonlocal residents and commercial service providers. The recombinant forms showed high similarity in sequences with the strains from other provinces.Conclusions:The distribution of HIV-1 subtypes in MSM in Jiaxing city was complex. Given the increasing detection rate of recombinant forms, the high transmission rate of drug-resistant mutations, and the active molecular clusters and high-risk transmission clusters mainly detected in nonlocal residents and commercial service providers, strengthened surveillance and intervention are needed.

RESUMO

Objective:To understand the molecular transmission characteristics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(AIDS) patients in the mountainous area of southwest Zhejiang Province(Lishui city).Methods:A total of 147 blood samples were collected from newly-diagnosed HIV-1 infected who received no antiviral therapy, and pol gene was amplified, followed by sequencing. MEGA6.0 software was used to construct phylogenetic tree and determine gene subtypes. HIVDB online was used to analyze drug resistance mutation, then the pairwise genetic distance(GD) was calculated and the opitimal threshold of GD was selected, finally the molecular transmission network was constructed by Cytoscape3.7.0 software. Chi-square or Fisher′s exact probability method was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 134 sequences were obtained successfully, and nine subtypes were detected. The dominant subtypes were CRF08_BC (34.33%, 46/134), CRF01_AE (29.85%, 40/134) and CRF07_BC (23.88%, 32/134). It also found that age, registered residence, education level and transmission route had significant differences in distribution of subtypes ( P<0.05). Nineteen drug resistance individuals were found, and the total drug resistance rate was 14.18% (19/134). The HIV-1 molecular transmission network was plotted based on 1.2% GD threshold. A total of 15 transmission clusters (cluster size ranging from 2 to 29) were found. The network access rate was 49.25% (66/134), mainly including male (75.76%, 50/66), heterosexual (81.82%, 54/66) and patientsrinfected with CRF08_ BC (50.00%, 33/66). A transmission cluster including two cases of female sex workers and seven cases of drug resistance was identified, in which the average age of the patients was 57.21 years old and the average degree value was 22.7, and the cases were mainly infected through heterosexual contact (96.55%, 28/29). The highest homology of the sequences in the cluster was in Yunnan. Conclusions:The HIV-1 subtypes were diverse in the mountainous area of southwest Zhejiang Province(Lishui city). Drug resistant transmission had reached a moderate epidemic level. There were molecular transmission clusters with the aggregation characteristics of elderly clients in specific regions. It was urgent to formulate and implement precise intervention strategies to curb the spread of HIV.

RESUMO

Objective:To construct the molecular transmission network of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) epidemic strains in northern Zhejiang Province (Jiaxing City and Huzhou City) and to explore the HIV-1 transmission characteristics in this region.Methods:A total of 371 newly diagnosed human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) patients in Jiaxing City and Huzhou City in 2017 were included as study subjects, and the blood samples were collected and the basic demographic and epidemiological information were obtained. RNA in plasma was extracted, and the pol region gene sequence was amplified by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to construct phylogenetic tree for identifying subtypes. The pairwise genetic distances were calculated, and the optimal threshold of genetic distance was selected, and finally the molecular transmission network was constructed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The pol region gene sequences of 336 samples were successfully obtained, and 11 subtypes were detected, mainly including circulating recombinant form (CRF)07_BC (40.8%, 137/336) and CRF01_AE (31.2%, 105/336). Based on the 1.0% genetic distance threshold, the molecular transmission network of HIV-1 was plotted. A total of 38 transmission clusters (cluster sizes ranging from two to 28) including 119 patients were found, with males predominantly (82.4%, 98/119) and most of the patients aged over 40 (include 40) years old (52.9%, 63/119), mainly infected with CRF07_BC subtype (57.1%, 68/119) and CRF01_AE (24.4%, 29/119). The clustering rate of CRF07_BC (49.6%, 68/137) was significantly higher than that of CRF01_AE (27.6%, 29/105), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=5.27, P=0.022). Two large clusters C1 (28 cases) and C2 (11 cases) were identified, the majority of which were men who have sex with men (17 cases and seven cases, respectively). High-risk cases generally sought sexual partners in local or nearby cities through mobile phone dating software, of which the infected sequences mostly had high homology with other economic developed regions (Guangdong Province, Beijing City and Hangzhou City, etc.). Conclusions:The HIV-1 subtypes are diverse in Jiaxing City and Huzhou City, mainly CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE. The HIV-1 transmission networks are complex, among which high-risk cases may be the key factor leading to the HIV-1 epidemic in the region. Therefore, it is urgent to deepen the transmission network monitoring and formulate timely precise intervention and prevention strategies.

RESUMO

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To understand the HIV-1 subtype diversity and transmission characteristics in men having sex with men (MSM) in Zhejiang province.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 233 newly diagnosed as HIV-1 positive patients in 2011 were screened out by BED capture enzyme immunoassay (BED-CEIA). Among them, 107 eligible subjects were enrolled for further molecular epidemiological study. Viral RNA was extracted from plasma samples and followed by reverse transcription PCR and nested PCR for amplification of pol gene fragments, sequencing, and bioinformatics analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were no statistically significant differences regarding the social demographic distribution between the subjects under study and those recently infected MSM population. The rate of success for sequence acquisition was 94.4% (101/107). The highest proportion of subtype was CRF01_AE (62.4%), followed by CRF07_BC (31.7%) and with three cases of subtype B, one case of CRF55_01B and two cases of unique recombinant form (CRF01_AE/B and CRF01_AE/CRF07_BC). The phylogenetic trees were mainly divided into CRF01_AE cluster 1, cluster 2 and CRF07_BC cluster 3. The strains located in Hangzhou were diffused in the branches of phylogenetic tree. 10 transmission clusters were found, in which 80% involved two or more regions and 90% was associated with patients residing in Hangzhou. Three surveillance drug resistance mutations (M46I, T215S and G190A) were found in three samples (each sample harbored only one resistance mutation). The overall rate of transmitted drug resistance (TDR) was 2.97%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The increasing complexity of HIV was noticed in MSM in Zhejiang province. However, the prevalence of TDR was low. Cross-regional HIV transmission in MSM was common, which inferred from the study. Hangzhou might play a central regional role in the intra-provincial spread of HIV, to form an interwoven complex network in the MSM population.</p>
