Re-educating T cell-mediated immunity in SIV by modulating metabolic pathways

通过调节代谢途径重新训练 SIV 中 T 细胞介导的免疫

基本信息

项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract HIV/AIDS is a chronic infectious disease that affects around 37 million people worldwide. CD8 T cells play a critical role in controlling HIV infection. However, CD8 T cells become exhausted over time due to continuous stimulation. Exhausted HIV-specific CD8 T cells, characterized by elevated expression of inhibitory receptors (e.g. PD-1), positively correlate with higher viral load, impaired T cell function, and disease progression. In HIV and other chronic viral infections, exhausted antigen-specific CD8 T cells expressing PD-1 can create a suppressive environment suggesting that such cells not only have a direct role in disease progression but can cross-talk with other immune cells to impair their function. Chronic HIV infection dysregulates T cell energy metabolism. HIV-specific CD8 T cells isolated from infected individuals exhibit elevated mitochondrial stress which is still apparent years after antiretroviral therapy (ART). PD-1 expression on T cells is associated with mitochondrial stress. PD-1-mediated signaling dysregulates T cell mitochondrial energetics by reducing glycolysis and shifting towards fatty acid b-oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos). Metformin is an FDA-approved drug that dampens OxPhos by inhibiting mitochondrial complex I. To date, most studies investigating metformin use in HIV+ individuals are often in the presence of ART. It has yet to be explored how modulating energy metabolism with metformin impacts host immunity in an ART-naïve setting. HIV not only impairs immune control of the viral infection, but also increases susceptibility to opportunistic infections. People living with HIV are incredibly susceptible to the tuberculosis-causing bacilli, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We previously showed SIV-infected Mauritian cynomolgus macaques (MCM) to be more susceptible to Mtb, which we attributed to immunologic impairment by preexisting SIV infection. Therefore, Mtb challenge is a stringent assessment of host defenses and, given the prevalence of HIV/Mtb co-infection, has great relevance to global health. In this K01 proposal, we will identify pathways involved in energy metabolism in CD8 T cells during chronic HIV infection and reveal their role in T cell exhaustion using our established MCM model of HIV. We will use a comprehensive analytic approach that combines single cell RNA sequencing, metabolic assays, and flow cytometry to assess the role of T cell metabolism in SIV-infected MCM. We will alter metabolism using metformin to reprogram CD8 T cells and determine whether this metabolic reprogramming improves host immunity by challenging SIV+ animals with Mtb.
