Clinical and immune features of human parvovirus B19 infection in allogeneic stem cell transplantation recipients: A retrospective monocentric study. Transpl Infect Dis 2023; 25:e14118. [PMID: 37594199 DOI: 10.1111/tid.14118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 07/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human parvovirus B19 (B19V) infection is associated with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) in immunocompromised patients; however, the spectrum of manifestations associated with B19V in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients (alloHSCT) has rarely been reported. METHODS In this study, we aimed to report clinical and immune features of B19V infection after alloHSCT. We retrospectively collected and analyzed clinical and microbiological data of all transplanted patients with B19V DNAmia or tissue infection detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in our center from 2010 to 2021. RESULTS We report 35 cases of B19V infections in 33 patients. Median time from transplant to B19V first PCR positivity was 6.9 months (interquartile range (IQR) [1.6-18.9]). No preferential immune profile, type of transplantation or conditioning was identified. Hematological impairment was the most frequent sign, followed by rash and fever. Unconventional clinical forms were also detected, such as acute myelitis and myositis. For some cases, the direct relationship between symptoms and B19V infection was difficult to prove but was suggested by targeted tissue PCR positivity. When hematological impairment was not at the forefront, reticulocytopenia helped to diagnose B19V infections. Treatment was mainly based on high dose intravenous immunoglobulin. CONCLUSION Although hematological impairment was the most frequent sign, B19V can affect multiple targets and lead to atypical manifestations. Because of its heterogeneous clinical presentation, B19V infection is likely under-diagnosed. Diagnosis of unusual B19V organ involvement needs combination of arguments which can include targeted tissue PCR.

Abstract
Individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease frequently suffer from anemia. The causes include anemia of chronic disease, vitamin B12 and iron deficiency, opportunistic infections (Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Pneumocystis jiroveci), HIV-related bone marrow suppression, AIDS-associated malignancies, and antiretroviral therapy (ART), specifically zidovudine. In HIV patients with advanced immunodeficiency, failure to produce neutralizing antibodies can lead to chronic parvovirus B19 (B19) infection. Normally, in persons with intact immunity, the progression of B19 is self-limited. However, in chronic B19 infection, it can lead to pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) and chronic anemia. In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients, B19-related anemia is rare and underdiagnosed. It has a great response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy. Hence, early diagnosis and prompt treatment can significantly reduce mortality. In this article, we described the case of a 25-year-old male with HIV infection who presented with a headache. He had severe normocytic anemia with a low reticulocyte count. The workup for blood loss, hemolysis, hemoglobinopathy, and iron deficiency was negative. Because of extremely low reticulocytopenia with severe anemia, the investigations favored multiple myeloma, parvovirus infection, and bone marrow aspiration biopsy. He was tested for parvovirus B19 deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test due to insufficient seroconversion. It turned out to be positive and he was treated with IVIG therapy.

Prevalence, Cell Tropism, and Clinical Impact of Human Parvovirus Persistence in Adenomatous, Cancerous, Inflamed, and Healthy Intestinal Mucosa. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:914181.

Abstract
Parvoviruses are single-stranded DNA viruses, infecting many animals from insects to humans. Human parvovirus B19 (B19V) causes erythema infectiosum, arthropathy, anemia, and fetal death, and human bocavirus (HBoV) 1 causes respiratory tract infections, while HBoV2-4 are enteric. Parvoviral genomes can persist in diverse non-permissive tissues after acute infection, but the host-cell tropism and the impact of their tissue persistence are poorly studied. We searched for parvoviral DNA in a total of 427 intestinal biopsy specimens, as paired disease-affected and healthy mucosa, obtained from 130 patients with malignancy, ulcerative colitis (UC), or adenomas, and in similar intestinal segments from 55 healthy subjects. Only three (1.6%) individuals exhibited intestinal HBoV DNA (one each of HBoV1, 2, and 3). Conversely, B19V DNA persisted frequently in the intestine, with 50, 47, 31, and 27% detection rates in the patients with malignancy, UC, or adenomas, and in the healthy subjects, respectively. Intra-individually, B19V DNA persisted significantly more often in the healthy intestinal segments than in the inflamed colons of UC patients. The highest loads of B19V DNA were seen in the ileum and colon specimens of two healthy individuals. With dual-RNAscope in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry assays, we located the B19V persistence sites of these intestines in mucosal B cells of lymphoid follicles and vascular endothelial cells. Viral messenger RNA transcription remained, however, undetected. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) identified 272 differentially expressed cellular genes between B19V DNA-positive and -negative healthy ileum biopsy specimens. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that B19V persistence activated the intestinal cell viability and inhibited apoptosis. Lifelong B19V DNA persistence thus modulates host gene expression, which may lead to clinical outcomes.

Acute Onset of Remitting Seronegative Symmetrical Synovitis With Pitting Edema (RS3PE) Two Weeks After COVID-19 Vaccination With mRNA-1273 With Possible Activation of Parvovirus B19: A Case Report With Literature Review. Cureus 2022; 14:e24952.

Abstract
Remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema (RS3PE) is a rare clinical entity characterized by “remitting,” “seronegative,” and “symmetrical” synovitis with pitting edema on the dorsum of the hands and feet. Although rheumatic or malignant diseases are diseases that are known to coexist with RS3PE, other factors such as medication, infection, and vaccination have been reported to be associated with RS3PE. Here, we present a case of RS3PE syndrome that satisfied all four diagnostic criteria of RS3PE (pitting edema in the limbs, acute onset, age ≥ 50 years, and/or rheumatoid factor negativity) after mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Is the ZIKV Congenital Syndrome and Microcephaly Due to Syndemism with Latent Virus Coinfection? Viruses 2021; 13:v13040669.

Abstract
The emergence of the Zika virus (ZIKV) mirrors its evolutionary nature and, thus, its ability to grow in diversity or complexity (i.e., related to genome, host response, environment changes, tropism, and pathogenicity), leading to it recently joining the circle of closed congenital pathogens. The causal relation of ZIKV to microcephaly is still a much-debated issue. The identification of outbreak foci being in certain endemic urban areas characterized by a high-density population emphasizes that mixed infections might spearhead the recent appearance of a wide range of diseases that were initially attributed to ZIKV. Globally, such coinfections may have both positive and negative effects on viral replication, tropism, host response, and the viral genome. In other words, the possibility of coinfection may necessitate revisiting what is considered to be known regarding the pathogenesis and epidemiology of ZIKV diseases. ZIKV viral coinfections are already being reported with other arboviruses (e.g., chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and dengue virus (DENV)) as well as congenital pathogens (e.g., human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and cytomegalovirus (HCMV)). However, descriptions of human latent viruses and their impacts on ZIKV disease outcomes in hosts are currently lacking. This review proposes to select some interesting human latent viruses (i.e., herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), human parvovirus B19 (B19V), and human papillomavirus (HPV)), whose virological features and co-exposition with ZIKV may provide evidence of the syndemism process, shedding some light on the emergence of the ZIKV-induced global congenital syndrome in South America.

Abstract
Reactivation of human parvovirus B19 is exceptional and characteristic of immunosuppression, with anaemia being the predominant manifestation although pancytopenia and thrombotic microangiopathy may also occur. We describe a patient with a history of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with pure erythrocyte aplasia due to reactivation of parvovirus B19, who was treated with corticosteroids and immunoglobulins. LEARNING POINTS Infection with human parvovirus B19 is identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of blood and the presence of typical giant proerythroblasts in the bone marrow.Cytomegalovirus infection should be considered in immunosuppressed patients with fever and non-specific symptoms with haematological changes.The treatment of persistent infection in immunosuppressed patients is based on the administration of IV immunoglobulins at high doses.

Transcription-associated mutational pressure in the Parvovirus B19 genome: Reactivated genomes contribute to the variability of viral populations. J Theor Biol 2017; 435:199-207.

Abstract
In this study we used non-overlapping parts of the two long open reading frames coding for nonstructural (NS) and capsid (VP) proteins of all available sequences of the Parvovirus B19 subgenotype 1a genome and found out that the rates of A to G, C to T and A to T mutations are higher in the first long reading frame (NS) of the virus than in the second one (VP). This difference in mutational pressure directions for two parts of the same viral genome can be explained by the fact of transcription of just the first long reading frame during the lifelong latency in nonerythroid cells. Adenine deamination (producing A to G and A to T mutations) and cytosine deamination (producing C to T mutations) occur more frequently in transcriptional bubbles formed by DNA "plus" strand of the first open reading frame. These mutations can be inherited only in case of reactivation of the infectious virus due to the help of Adenovirus that allows latent Parvovirus B19 to start transcription of the second reading frame and then to replicate its genome by the rolling circle mechanism using the specific origin. Results of this study provide evidence that the genomes reactivated from latency make significant contributions to the variability of Parvovirus B19.
