    Abstract CD8 T cell killing of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected hepatocytes is thought to contribute to liver damage during chronic HCV infection, whereas the participation of HCV-nonspecific immune cells is unclear. To visualize the spatial relationship of HCV-specific CD8 T cells with parenchymal target cells, and to examine their local functional activity in relation to hepatocellular necrosis and fibrosis, we used HLA tetramers and confocal microscopy in biopsies from 23 HLA-A2 or HLA-B7 patients with chronic HCV infection. Intrahepatic tetramer+ (HCV-specific) CD8 T cells protected from hepatic necroinflammatory disease activity, independently of age, gender, viral load, and viral genotype. Indeed, tetramer+ cells were scattered in the liver within regions of weak fibrosis (low laminin expression) and low hepatocellular apoptosis (TUNEL method), and expressed IL-10 but not IFNgamma. By contrast, tetramer-negative CD8 T cells were associated with active necroinflammatory liver disease, colocalized with strong laminin expression and hepatocellular apoptosis, and expressed more frequently IFNgamma than IL-10. Overall, liver regions harboring HCV-specific CD8 T cells tended to be healthier than areas containing only inflammatory cells of undefined specificity. In conclusion, HCV-specific IL-10-producing CD8 T cells, although not cytotoxic and unable to control viral replication, can attenuate hepatocellular necrosis, liver fibrosis, and inflammation mediated by bystander T cells, and may thus represent antigen-induced regulatory CD8 T cells. Therapeutic modulation of the intrahepatic balance between specific and bystander CD8 T cells might be beneficial in patients with chronic hepatitis C.

    Abstract Anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment combining IFN-alpha and ribavirin (IFN+R) has still poorly defined effects on immune responses. Frequencies of T helper (Th) type 1 cells specific for HCV, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and HIV were measured in chronically HCV-infected patients with or without HIV co-infection during IFN+R treatment. Although scarce, peripheral blood HCV-specific Th1 cells did not change significantly, while frequencies of HIV and CMV-specific Th1 cells decreased in co-infected patients independently of CD4 cell count changes. This suggests that IFN+R therapy might compromise virus-specific immune defenses in immunosuppressed patients.

    Abstract Background: Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a rare autosomal-recessive multisystem disorder characterized by pronounced cerebellar ataxia, telangiectasia, cancer predisposition, and altered body composition. Liver diseases with steatosis, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma are frequent findings in older patients but sensitive noninvasive diagnostic tools are lacking.
    Objectives: To determine the sensitivity of transient elastography (TE) as a screening tool for early hepatic tissue changes and serum biomarkers for liver disease.
    Methods: Thirty-one A-T patients aged 2 to 25 years were examined prospectively from 2016-2018 by TE. In addition, we evaluated the diagnostic performance of liver biomarkers for steatosis and necroinflammatory activity (SteatoTest and ActiTest, Biopredictive, Paris) compared to TE. For calculation and comparison, patients were divided into two groups (<12, >12 years of age).
    Results: TE revealed steatosis in 2/21 (10%) younger patients compared to 9/10 (90%) older patients. Fibrosis was present in 3/10 (30%) older patients as assessed by TE. We found a significant correlation of steatosis with SteatoTest, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), HbA1c, and triglycerides. Liver stiffness correlated significantly with SteatoTest, ActiTest, HbA1c, and triglycerides.
    Conclusion: Liver disease is a common finding in older A-T patients. TE is an objective measure to detect early stages of steatosis and fibrosis. SteatoTest and ActiTest are a good diagnostic assessment for steatosis and necroinflammatory activity in patients with A-T and confirmed the TE results.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the peripheral blood lymphocyte (PBL) phenotypes and T cell repertoire in patients with HCV infection, with or without mixed cryoglobulinaemia (MC). The patients were: Group 1, 23 patients with HCV infection and MC; Group 2, 14 patients with HCV infection but without MC; Group 3, 10 patients with symptomatic essential MC. Twenty healthy blood donors were used as controls. Blood lymphocyte counts were determined, and flow cytometry was used to measure proportions of B cells (CD19+), natural killer (NK) cells (CD16+CD56+), T cells (CD3+), CD4+ T cell subsets (memory CD4+CD45RO+; naive CD4+CD45RO-; Th0/Th2CD4+CD7-; activated CD4+CD25+), and CD8+ T cell subsets (immunoregulatory CD8+CD57+; cytotoxic CD8+S6F1+, activated CD8+CD25+). Bias in the usage of T cell receptor (TCR) Vbeta chains was studied in a subgroup of 10 representative patients of Group 1 using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of the Vbeta segments with a series of 20 oligonucleotides specific for the Vbeta families. The three groups were comparable for blood lymphocyte counts, and we observed no abnormal repartition of the following PBL subsets: T cells (CD3+), CD4+ and CD8+ subpopulations, B cells (CD19+), and the NK cells (CD16+56+). In none of the groups could we observe lymphocyte ex vivo activation as assessed by the normal expression of the activation cell markers: CD25 on CD4+ or CD8+ T cells, or CD5 on B cells. The repartition of naive and memory (CD45RO-/RO+) CD4+ T cells was normal and we did not observe any amplification of the CD4+CD7- T cell subset differentiated in vivo in Th0/Th2 cells. There was no significant amplification of cytotoxic (SF6+) and immunoregulatory (CD57+) CD8+ T cells in HCV patients with or without MC. Finally, the usage of Vbeta families in the TCR repertoire was normal in the patients tested. In patients with chronic HCV infection, with or without MC, we did not find any significant expansion or abnormal activation of T, B and NK cell subsets, dysbalance of the naive/memory subsets, or expansion of the Th0/Th2 subpopulation. These findings differ from the profound immune alterations that are observed in other chronic infections such as HIV or Epstein-Barr virus. Although this study was restricted to the peripheral blood, it suggests that in chronic HCV infection, MC is not the consequence of a chronic activation or dysregulation of the peripheral blood immune cells.
