To date, no data exist regarding the prevalence of integrase inhibitor (INSTI) resistance-associated mutations (HIVDRM) in HIV-infected pregnant women (HPW) in Latin America. We describe the prevalence and transmissibility of integrase HIVDRM in a historical cohort of INSTI-naïve HPW from Argentina (n=56) with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS).
Bioinformatics analysis was performed by HyDRA software for 20%, 10%, 5%, 2%, and 1% sensitivity thresholds. We calculated the mutational viral load for each INSTI-HIVDRM, considering those with >1000 c/mL as of high risk of transmissibility.
The predominant HIV subtype was BF (78.5%). Major HIVDRM were not detected with the population sequencing 20% filter. With a 1% threshold, the prevalence increased to 8.9%; Y143C/S, E92G, E138K, and T66I mutations were found. The median (range) mutational load (expressed in c/mL) was: 355 (50.2-11705); with only 1 case >1000 c/mL Accessory mutations (G163R/K, T97A) were detected mostly with a 20% sensitivity threshold with an overall prevalence of 23.2%; the median (IQR) mutational load was: 23929 (4009-63158) c/mL; all of them above 1000 c/mL.
Our results show evidence of the presence of major INSTI-HIVDRM as aleatory mutations and a high frequency of accessory mutations with potential transmissibility in HPW.
迄今为止,拉丁美洲尚无关于感染艾滋病毒的孕妇(HPW)中整合酶抑制剂(INSTI)耐药相关突变(HIVDRM)流行率的数据。我们通过下一代测序(NGS)描述了来自阿根廷的初始未使用 INSTI 的 HIVDRM 流行率和整合酶 HIVDRM 的传染性。
HyDRA 软件对 20%、10%、5%、2%和 1%的灵敏度阈值进行了生物信息学分析。我们考虑到每个 INSTI-HIVDRM 的突变病毒载量> 1000 c/mL 具有高传播风险,计算了每个 INSTI-HIVDRM 的突变病毒载量。
主要的 HIV 亚型是 BF(78.5%)。人群测序 20%的过滤器未检测到主要的 HIVDRM。使用 1%的阈值,流行率增加到 8.9%;发现 Y143C/S、E92G、E138K 和 T66I 突变。中位(范围)突变负荷(以 c/mL 表示)为:355(50.2-11705);只有 1 例> 1000 c/mL。发现了主要的辅助突变(G163R/K、T97A),主要在 20%的灵敏度阈值下检测到,总流行率为 23.2%;中位(IQR)突变负荷为:23929(4009-63158)c/mL;所有都超过了 1000 c/mL。
我们的研究结果表明,在 HPW 中存在主要的 INSTI-HIVDRM 作为随机突变,以及具有潜在传染性的高频率辅助突变。
