Abstract | The initial response to Leishmania parasites is essential in determining disease development or resistance. In vitro, a divergent response to Leishmania, characterized by high or low IFN-γ production has been described as a potential tool to predict both vaccine response and disease susceptibility in vivo. Methods and findings
We identified uninfected and healthy individuals that were shown to be either high- or low
IFN-γ producers (HPs and LPs, respectively) following stimulation of peripheral blood cells
with Leishmania braziliensis. Following stimulation, RNA was processed for gene expression
analysis using immune gene arrays. Both HPs and LPs were shown to upregulate the
expression of CXCL10, IFI27, IL6 and LTA. Genes expressed in HPs only (CCL7, IL8,
IFI44L and IL1B) were associated with pathways related to IL17 and TREM 1 signaling. In
LPs, uniquely expressed genes (for example IL9, IFI44, IFIT1 and IL2RA) were associated
with pathways related to pattern recognition receptors and interferon signaling. We then
investigated whether the unique gene expression profiles described here could be recapitulated
in vivo, in individuals with active Cutaneous Leishmaniasis or with subclinical infection.
Indeed, using a set of six genes (TLR2, JAK2, IFI27, IFIT1, IRF1 and IL6) modulated in HPs
and LPs, we could successfully discriminate these two clinical groups. Finally, we demonstrate
that these six genes are significantly overexpressed in CL lesions. Conclusion
Upon interrogation of the peripheral response of naive individuals with diverging IFN-γ production
to L. braziliensis, we identified differences in the innate response to the parasite that
are recapitulated in vivo and that discriminate CL patients from individuals presenting a subclinical
infection | pt_BR |
