Herpesvirus 1

Equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) affects horses worldwide and causes respiratory disease, abortions, and equine herpesvirus myeloencephalopathy (EHM). Following infection, a cell-associated viremia is established in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). This viremia is essential for transport of EHV-1 to secondary infection sites where subsequent immunopathology results in diseases such as abortion or EHM. Because of the central role of PBMCs in EHV-1 pathogenesis, our goal was to establish a gene expression analysis of host and equine herpesvirus genes during EHV-1 viremia using RNA sequencing. When comparing transcriptomes of PBMCs during peak viremia to those prior to EHV-1 infection, we found 51 differentially expressed equine genes (48 upregulated and 3 downregulated). After gene ontology analysis, processes such as the interferon defense response, response to chemokines, the complement protein activation cascade, cell adhesion, and coagulation were overrepresented during viremia. Additionally, transcripts for EHV-1, EHV-2, and EHV-5 were identified in pre- and post-EHV-1-infection samples. Looking at micro RNAs (miRNAs), 278 known equine miRNAs and 855 potentially novel equine miRNAs were identified in addition to 57 and 41 potentially novel miRNAs that mapped to the EHV-2 and EHV-5 genomes, respectively. Of those, 1 EHV-5 and 4 equine miRNAs were differentially expressed in PBMCs during viremia. In conclusion, this work expands our current knowledge about the role of PBMCs during EHV-1 viremia and will inform the focus on future experiments to identify host and viral factors that contribute to clinical EHM.

Intrauterine administration of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) has been recently proposed as new immunotherapy for patients with unexplained recurrent implantation failure (RIF). In these patients, administration of activated PBMC 24-h or 72-h before embryo transfer resulted in a 3-fold increase in biochemical pregnancy rate. In this study we evaluated the role of T cells to promotes human endometrial receptivity. On the day of ovulation, PBMC were isolated from and activated with T cells mitogen, the phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and hCG for 48-h in a conditioned culture medium. Distributions of CD4+ T cells were characterized in 157 patients by flow cytometry before and after PHA/hCG activation. Cytokine production was analyzed by cytometric beads array. We observed in RIF patients a significant decrease in Th2 and natural Treg cells before activation with PHA/hCG and an increase of Th17 cells after activation compared to intrauterine sperm insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) groups. Furthermore, the hCG/PHA treatment increases anti-inflammatory T cells (Th2 and Treg cells) compared to non-treated T cells. Principal component analysis (PCA) performed on CD4 T cell subtypes revealed a different cellular profile in the RIF compared to the IUI and IVF groups. This inflammatory state change could explain how endometrium immunomodulation by hCG-activated PBMC helps patients with unexplained RIF to reach implantation.
