The Dynamics of HIV RNA, CD4+ Count and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) Antigen Specific Cytokines in TB/HIV Patients Following Successful Tuberculosis (TB) Treatment Desta Kassa (MSc, PhD student) Ethiopian Health and Nutrition Research Institute (EHNRI) ICASA December 4-8, 2011 Addis Ababa

Infection with M tuberculosis (Mtb): Th1/Th2 dichotomy determines clinical outcome (Schkuger NW and Rom WN, 1998) Th1 (IL-2, IFN-g) : activate macrophage for mycobacterium killing Th2 (IL-10 ): enhance bacilli survival and replication Th17 (IL-17): plays protective role (Khader SA, Cooper AM, 2008) Findings are not always consistent (Lin, Y et al, 1996; Cozemic , et al, 2007) Immunity against TB is not fully understood Areas of investigation: Mtb specific Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokines during TB disease and infection Effect of HIV co-infection on the modulation of these cytokines Effect of anti-TB treatment on the modulation of these cytokines

Effect of TB during HIV infection (Wallis R S. and ElIner JJ, 1994) Questions: Does early initiation of TB treatment (deferring HAART) able to: Suppress viral replication Restore CD4+ count Restore immune function specific to TB: Th1 (IFN-γ, IL-2), Th2 (IL-10), Th-17 (IL-17) Previous studies: Viremia suppressed (Goletti et al , 1996), Viremia not suppressed (Lawn SD et al, 1999); Persistent immune activation (Wolday et al, (2003) . Increase immune activation/cytokines (TNF….) . Increase HIV RNA level . Increase depletion of CD4+ . Increase immune dysfunction specific to TB . ……. results in TB infectivity, morbidity, mortality

Objectives To assess the pattern of Th1 (IL-2, IFNg) Th2 (IL-10) and inflammatory ( IL-17) cytokines during TB disease and infection To assess the effect of HIV co-infection and TB treatment on the modulation of these cytokines To assess the effect TB treatment on the polarization of Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokines To investigate whether TB treatment (with no HAART) in TB/HIV patients : Suppress viral replication Restore CD4+ cell counts Restores immune responses specific to Mtb (FN, IL-2, IL-10, IL-17)

Methods Study design: Prospective cohort study Study sites: St petrer Specialized TB Hospital Akaki and kality Health centers Study groups Adults (15-60 years) ,of both sexes Naive for anti-TB and ART HIV positive TB cases (HIV+TB+) HIV negative TB cases (HIV-TB+) Latent TB groups (HIV-TST+) Controls (HIV-TST-) Follow-up visit . TB patients followed at 6th and 18th months Sample collection: 10 ml whole blood

Methods … cont Laboratory tests: Plasma HIV RNA level (PVL) (copies/ml): NucliSens EasyQ CD4+ count (cells/l): FACSCalibur (Becton Dickinson) Immune responses specific to Mtb (FN, IL-2, IL-10, IL-17) Whole blood (baseline, 6 and 18 months) Stimulated with Mtb specific antigen (ESAT-6/CFP-10) Supernatant collected at 7th day (store -80) Cytokines measured using Luminex assay

Results

Baseline characteristics Mean Age (Yrs) Female (%) CD4+ (cells/ul) BMI (kg/m2) Hgb (g/dl) PVL (log 10 copies/ml) HIV+TB+ (n=30) 34.4 43.3 232.3 18.8 12.4 5.2 HIV-TB+ (n=61) 28.5 31.9 472.7 18.9 13.5 HIV-TST+ (22) 26.6 62.5 787.3 21.4 16.3 Controls (n=23) 24.6 64.0 754.8 17.9 . Does the depletion in CD4+ count at periphery associated with immune dysfunction specific to TB ? .

The Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine profile during TB disease and infection Modulation with HIV co-infection?

The effect of TB treatment in: HIV-TB+ HIV+TB+ Immunologic (CD4+ count) recovery viral suppression (PVL) Mtb specific immune reconstitution

1) Immunologic (CD4+ count) recovery 2) Plasma viral suppression HIV+TB+ (n=12)   M0 M6 M0-M6 P value PVL (copies/ml) 166366.8 398750.1 + 232383.3 0.37 (lo10copies/ml) 5.2 5.6 +0.4

3) Reconstitution of Mtb specific immune response after six month of TB treatment

Correlation of CD4+ count recovery and immune reconstitution specific to TB (HIV-TB+)

Conclusions At baseline We found an Increase in IFNg and IL-17 in Latent TB but decrease in TB patients Decrease in IL-10 during TB disease HIV coinfection alters the cytokine profile After six month of TB treatment: In TB/HIV patients , there was no significant: Reduction in HIV viral replication, increase in CD4+ count recovery, and improve in immune responses (Th1, Th17) In HIV negative TB patients CD4+ count were normalized immune function was restored Polarizes to Th1 arm IFNg restoration was correlated with CD4+ count recovery

Conclusion/recommendation …cont Our results showed : Combination of IFNg and IL-17 might strengthen immunodiagnosis of LTBI relative to TST and IGRAs Support the notion of early initiation of HAART in TB/HIV patients which might preserve the number and function of immune cells.
