1 HIV An bodies Frequently Cross- React with Intes nal Microbiota An gens Tony Moody Duke Human Vaccine Ins tute Duke University 8 April 2015

2 Commensal Bacteria and the Immune System The intes ne is home for about 100 trillion microbes. Coloniza on with gut microbiota is cri cal for the normal development of the immune system. B cells and T cells within the intes ne block the entry of bacterial into systemic circula on. 2

3 An body responses in Early Infec on and Vaccina on In acute HIV- 1 infec on (AHI), virus replica on is prominent in the gastrointes nal tract with early deple on of CD4+ T cells and destruc on of germinal centers. Brenchley et al., J Exp Med, 2004; Guadalupe et al., J. Virol, 2003; Mehandru et al., PLoS Med 2006; Pope and Haase, Nat Med, 2003; Veazey et al., Science 1998; Trends in Immunology 2001 The ini al B cell response to HIV is focused on non- neutralizing gp41 epitopes, with IgG and IgM gp41 an bodies arising at the same me. Tomaras et al., J. Virol, 2003; Liao et al. J Exp Med,

4 Hypothesis Pre- exis ng commensal bacteria or other environmental an gens that cross- react with HIV- 1 an gens may shape the B cell response to HIV- 1 infec on and vaccina on. 4

11 Two Possibilities of gp41 Antibody Clonal Origin HIV gp41 triggers a germline BCR on naïve B cell to expand. HIV gp41 triggers preexisting antibody clones in which the germline doesn t react with gp41 but an intermediate clone antibody acquires gp41 reactivity. 11

20 I. Summary Of 5 HIV-1 acute HIV infection gp41 antibody clones analyzed, no UCA reacted with autologous Env. Only 6 of a total of 67 observed gp41 antibodies from 5 individuals were unmutated suggesting infrequent triggering of naïve B cells by gp41. HIV gp41 triggers a preexisting antibody clone in which the germline does not react with gp41 but an intermediate clone antibody acquires gp41 crossreactivity and then expands. HIV gp41 antibodies were reactive with intestinal bacterial antigens. 20

22 Can HIV-1 reactive antibodies be isolated from the terminal ileum of individuals with early HIV-1 infection? 22

23 We studied the terminal ileum of 6 individuals with early HIV-1 infection (EHI), ~ days after transmission. Trama et al Cell Host Microbe. 16:215 23

25 Is there a similar scarcity of HIV-1-reactive plasma cells in the terminal ileum of chronically-infected individuals? 25

26 We studied the terminal ileum of 3 chronically-infected subjects (CHI), >200 days after transmission. 26

27 Chronic HIV-1 infected Individuals: HIV-1 Reactive Ab Isolated from Terminal Ileum Plasma Cells gp41 (5.7%) gp120 (0.6%) p24 (2.5%) non HIV- 1/ non- defined (92.1%) 9/158 mab = HIV- 1 Env gp41- reac ve (5.7%) Total: 14/158 mab = HIV- 1 reac ve (8.8%) Trama et al Cell Host Microbe. 16:215 27

28 Are gp41-reactive antibodies isolated from the terminal ileum cross-reactive with intestinal bacterial whole cell lysate? 28

29 HIV-1 gp41-reactive Terminal Ileum Antibodies Cross-React with intestinal Bacteria Whole Cell Lysate 17 gp41-reactive Abs from early and chronic HIV-1 infection: 15 (88.2%) are intestinal bacteria cross-reactive; 2 (11.8%) are not intestinal bacteria cross-reactive. 29

30 What are antigens in intestinal bacteria that crossreact with gp41-reactive antibodies? 30

32 Do antibodies isolated from the terminal ileum that react with both HIV-1 gp41 and intestinal bacteria whole cell lysate also react with recombinant purified E coli RNA polymerase? 32

33 HIV-1 gp41 and intestinal bacteria Cross- Reactive Antibodies Also React with E coli RNA Polymerase 15 gp41+ intestinal bacteria+ Abs from early and chronic HIV-1 infection: 4 (26.7%) are reactive with re coli RNA polymerase; 11 (73.3%) are not reactive with re coli RNA polymerase. 33

34 Can HIV gp41 commensal bacterial cross-reactive antibodies be isolated from the terminal ileum of uninfected individuals? 34

36 II. Summary Similar to blood plasma cells in AHI, there is a dearth of HIV-1 reactive plasma cells in the terminal ileum in early and chronic HIV-1 infection. 17 (77.3%) of the 22 HIV-1 reactive antibodies isolated from the terminal ileum were reactive to gp41. Of 17 gp41-reactive antibodies isolated from the terminal ileum, 15 (88.2%) cross-reacted with intestinal bacterial antigens. 4 (26.7%) of the 15 gp41-intestinal bacteria cross-reactive antibodies isolated from the terminal ileum also react with re coli RNA polymerase. Mutated, class-switched, gp41-intestinal bacteria cross-reactive antibodies could be isolated from HIV uninfected individuals. 36

39 Breast Milk Antibodies Myriad benefits of breastfeeding to the growing infant, including decreased risk of obesity. Breast milk is rich in IgG and IgA antibodies that contribute to protection against infection. Breastfeeding by HIV-infected mothers is encouraged in resource-limited areas because of the overall mortality benefits despite ongoing exposure. Despite ongoing exposure, many infants remain uninfected. 39

43 Colostrum B Cells Isolation of memory B cells from colostrum yielded gp120-reactive antibodies with isotype restriction. B cell clonal lineage members can be found across compartments. 43

44 Colostrum B Cells Isolation of colostrum B cells by antigen-specific memory B cell sorting. 44

45 Unpublished Data 5 slides showing unpublished data. 45

46 III. Summary In contrast with intestinal B cells and the plasmablast response seen in early HIV-1 infection, HIV-1-specfic colostrum B cells are primarily gp120-reactive. Differential patterns of reactivity with intestinal flora antigens are observed. HIV-1 antibody cross-reactivity with intestinal microbiota antigens is not restricted to E coli RNA polymerase. 46

47 Conclusions Microbes or other environmental antigens with similar sequences or structures to HIV-1 Env can stimulate naïve B cells, which in turn differentiate into memory B cells. HIV-1 gp41 after HIV-1 infection can stimulate these memory B cells to proliferate and mature in affinity in response to HIV-1 gp41. Data from colostrum B cells cross-reactive between intestinal microbiota antigens and gp120 suggest that the phenomenon is not restricted to single microbial antigens or gp41 epitopes. 47
