抽象的

背景:乙型肝炎表面抗原 (HBsAg) 血清转化有时在乙型肝炎再激活 (rHBV) 中观察到,这可能是由于免疫重置和分化。

目的:研究实现 HBsAg 血清转化的 rHBV 患者的序贯免疫分化和耐受性消除。

方法:我们纳入了 19 名慢性乙型肝炎患者(CHBV;HBV DNA log103-8)、67 名 rHBV(ALT 升高 [>5XULN]、HBV DNAlog104-8)和 10 名健康对照。在基线和 24 周时评估 CD4、CD8、T 调节细胞 (Treg)、B 细胞和滤泡 T 辅助细胞 (Tfh) 的免疫分化、耐受性和功能状态。

结果:在 24 周时,81% 的 rHBV (n = 67) 失去了 HBV DNA 和 HBeAg (41%),12 (19%) 失去了 HBsAg 并且抗-HBs 滴度 >10 IU/ml。 rHBV 患者具有较高的 Th1/17、TEM、Tfh、Tfh1/17、血浆和 ATM B 细胞,以及较低的 Tregs、Th2、Th17 和 TEMRA 表达。与 CHBV 相比,rHBV 显示出较低的 PD1、TIM3、LAG3、SLAM 和 TOX。与非血清转化者相比,血清转化者中的 CD8、CD8EM、Tfh、Tfh1/17 和血浆 B 细胞显着增加。在 24 周时,我们还观察到血清转化者的血浆 B 细胞频率增加。虽然非血清转化者在 CD4/CD8 T 细胞上显示出更高的 PD1、TIM3、LAG3、SLAM 和 TOX 表达,但阻断 PD1、TIM3、LAG3 和 CTLA4 显着增强了 IFN-γ、TNF-α、IL-4 和 IL-21在非血清转化者的 CD4/CD8 和 Tfh 细胞上表达。

结论:非血清转化者增加了 CD4/CD8 T 细胞的抑制标志物。 CD8、Tfh 和 B 细胞及其亚群在血清清除中发挥着关键作用,连同检查点分子作为 HBV 感染中非血清转化者的潜在疗法。

Abstract

Background: Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroconversion is sometimes observed in hepatitis B reactivation (rHBV), probably due to immune resetting and differentiation.

Aims: To investigate sequential immune differentiation and abrogation of tolerance in patients with rHBV who achieved HBsAg seroconversion.

Methods: We included 19 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHBV; HBV DNA log103-8 ), 67 with rHBV (raised ALT [>5XULN], HBV DNAlog104-8 ) and 10 healthy controls. Immune differentiation, tolerance and functional status of CD4, CD8, T regulatory cells (Tregs), B cells and follicular T helper (Tfh) cells were assessed at baseline and 24 weeks.

Results: At 24 weeks, 81% rHBV (n = 67) lost HBV DNA and HBeAg (41%), and 12 (19%) lost HBsAg and made anti-HBs titers >10 IU/ml. rHBV patients had higher Th1/17, TEM , Tfh, Tfh1/17, plasma and ATM B cells, and lower Tregs, Th2, Th17 and TEMRA expression. rHBV showed lower PD1, TIM3, LAG3, SLAM and TOX compared to CHBV. There was a significant increase in CD8, CD8EM, Tfh, Tfh1/17 and plasma B cells in seroconverters than non-seroconverters. At 24 weeks, we also observed increased plasma B cell frequency in seroconverters. While non-seroconverters showed higher expression of PD1, TIM3, LAG3, SLAM and TOX on CD4/CD8 T cells, blockade of PD1, TIM3, LAG3 and CTLA4 significantly enhanced IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-21 expression on CD4/CD8 and Tfh cells in non-seroconverters.

Conclusions: Non-seroconverters have increased inhibitory markers on CD4/CD8 T cells. There is a critical play of CD8, Tfh and B cells and subsets in seroclearance, along with checkpoint molecules as a potential therapy for non-seroconverters in HBV infection.
