“…In the first study, researchers looked at 32 children who presented to hospital in Scotland with acute severe hepatitis of unknown aetiology from 14 March to 20 August 2022. They found recent infection with AAV2 in the plasma and liver samples of 26 of the 32 (81%) hepatitis cases, which compared with five of 74 (7%) in the control group 4…”

“…Emerging evidence indicates that intracellular ssDNA accumulates due to pathogen infection ( 68 ), Trex1 mutation ( 9 ), replication stress ( 10 ), chromosome instability ( 11 ), dysregulation of retrotransposon ( 12 ), R-loop accumulation ( 13 ), and gene therapy ( 14 ). Although the dsDNA-specific sensors cGAS ( 15, 16 ) and IFI16 ( 17 ) have been reported to mediate cytosolic ssDNA-induced type I interferon responses, they actually recognize double-stranded complementary stretches of ssDNA, rather than single-stranded structure ( 16, 18, 19 ).…”

“…Altogether, these in vivo results suggest that intracellular accumulation of stimulatory ssDNA can induce inflammation and hepatic necrosis and cause hepatitis in a SLFN9-dependent manner. Given the resemblance of these phenotypes to the AAV-induced severe hepatotoxicity observed during gene therapy and infection ( 6, 7, 37 ), SLFN11 may play a critical role in mediating AAV-induced immune responses in human.…”

“…57 Metagenomic analysis of liver tissue and blood also identified adeno-associated virus 2 in some children. 65,66 Adeno-associated virus is defective single-stranded DNA viruse that can only replicate in the presence of a helper virus. 59 The hypothesis of immunological predisposition/ genetic susceptibility in those affected was based on the identification of specific HLA class II allele, DRB1*04:01 in cases reported from the United Kingdom.…”
