Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) through breastfeeding remains a major source of pediatric HIV-1 infection worldwide. To characterize plasma HIV-1 subtype C populations from infected mothers during pregnancy that related to subsequent breast milk transmission, an exploratory study was designed to apply next generation sequencing and a custom bioinformatics pipeline for HIV-1 gp41 extending from heptad repeat region 2 (HR2) through the membrane proximal external region (MPER) and the membrane spanning domain (MSD). MPER harbors linear and highly conserved epitopes that repeatedly elicits HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies with exceptional breadth. Viral populations during pregnancy from women who transmitted by breastfeeding, compared to those who did not, displayed greater biodiversity, more frequent amino acid polymorphisms, lower hydropathy index and greater positive charge. Viral characteristics were restricted to MPER, failed to extend into flanking HR2 or MSD regions, and were unrelated to predicted neutralization resistance. Findings provide novel parameters to evaluate an association between maternal MPER variants present during gestation and lactogenesis with subsequent transmission outcomes by breastfeeding.
Importance: HIV-1 transmission through breastfeeding accounts for 39% of MTCT and continues as a major route of pediatric infection in developing countries where access to interventions for interrupting transmission is limited. Identifying women who are likely to transmit HIV-1 during breastfeeding would focus therapies, such as broad neutralizing HIV monoclonal antibodies (bn-HIV-Abs), during the breastfeeding period to reduce MTCT. Findings from our pilot study identify novel characteristics of gestational viral MPER quasispecies related to transmission outcomes and raise the possibility for predicting MTCT by breastfeeding based on identifying mothers with high-risk viral populations.
通过母乳喂养的母婴传播(MTCT)仍然是全球儿童HIV-1感染的主要来源。为了表征妊娠期间感染母亲的血浆HIV-1亚型C人群,其与随后的母乳传播有关,设计了一项探索性研究,以应用HIV-1gp41的下一代测序和定制生物信息学管道,该管道从七肽重复区2(HR2)延伸到膜近端外部区(MPER)和膜跨接结构域(MSD)。MPER含有线性和高度保守的表位,这些表位以非凡的广度反复引发HIV-1中和抗体。与未经母乳喂养的女性相比,通过母乳喂养传播的女性在怀孕期间的病毒种群表现出更大的生物多样性、更频繁的氨基酸多态性、更低的水病指数和更大的正电荷。病毒特征仅限于MPER,未能延伸到HR2或MSD侧翼区域,并且与预测的中和耐药性无关。研究结果提供了新的参数来评估妊娠期出现的母体MPER变异和产乳与随后母乳喂养的传播结果之间的关系。重要性:通过母乳喂养传播的HIV-1占MTCT的39%,并且在发展中国家仍然是儿科感染的主要途径,在这些国家,阻断传播的干预措施有限。识别母乳喂养期间可能传播HIV-1的女性将在母乳喂养期间重点治疗,如广泛中和HIV单克隆抗体(bn HIV Abs),以减少MTCT。我们的初步研究结果确定了妊娠期病毒MPER准种与传播结果相关的新特征,并提高了通过母乳喂养预测MTCT的可能性。
