RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Torque Teno Virus (TTV) is a non-enveloped, circular single-strand DNA virus and part of the human virome. The replication of TTV was related to the immune status in patients treated with immunosuppressive drugs after organ transplantation. We hypothesize that TTV load could be an additional marker for immune function in people living with HIV (PLWH). METHODS: In this analysis serum samples of PLWH from the RESINA multicenter cohort were reanalysed for TTV. Investigated clinical and epidemiological parameters included Pegivirus (HPgV) load, age, sex, HIV load, CD4+ cell count (CDC 1, 2, 3) and CDC clinical stages (1993 CDC classification system, A, B, C) before initiation of antiretroviral treatment. Regression analysis was used to detect possible associations among parameters. RESULTS: Our analysis confirmed TTV as a strong predictor of CD4+ cell count and CDC class 3. This relationship was used to propose a first classification of TTV load in regard to clinical stage. We found no association with clinical CDC stages A, B and C. HPgV load was inversely correlated with HIV load but not TTV load. CONCLUSIONS: TTV load was associated with immunodeficiency in PLWH. Neither TTV- nor HIV load were predictive for the clinical categories of HIV infection.
