Coxsackievirus A16 infection stimulates imbalances of T cells in children

Abstract: Abstract. Immune reaction plays a crucial role in the regulation of the progression of Coxsackievirus A16 (CA16)-infected hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). However, no details of T-cell subset frequency or imbalance during the CA16 infection process have been revealed. In the present study, whether CA16-induced HFMD changes the frequency of different T-cell subsets and associated immune mediators was determined in children. The results indicate that the percentages of Th1 and Tc1 cells were significantly in… Show more

“…It suggests that CA16 infection is unable to cause a rapid and intense immune response compared with EV71 infection, which seems to suggest an inhibiting effect during formation of the immune response to CA16 infection. These results are consistent with a report by Luo et al [47], who suggested that CA16 infection stimulates imbalances of T -cells. Notably, it is almost impossible for hosts to protect against recurrent CA16 infection due to the lack of previously characterized immune response indicators [7,8].…”

“…Next, KEGG pathway analysis further determined that these differentially expressed proteins were mainly enriched in immune- and neuro-associated pathways, such as primary immunodeficiency, cytokine‒cytokine receptor interaction, B-cell receptor signaling pathway, neuroactive ligand‒receptor interaction, GABAergic synapse, etc. It was reported that inappropriate or excessive activation of the immune reaction plays a crucial role in the regulation of the progression of CV-A16-infected HFMD, including T-cell imbalance and cytokine storm [ 37 , 38 ]. Moreover, increasing evidence has also demonstrated that CV-A16 is a neurotropic pathogen that has been associated with severe neurological forms of HFMD, such as aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, and acute flaccid paralysis [ 7 ].…”
