The Role of Prolonged Viral Gastrointestinal Infections in the Development of Immunodeficiency-Related Enteropathy

Abstract: Patients with primary immunodeficiencies are prone to develop enteropathy of unknown pathogenesis. We hypothesize that ineffective clearance of gastrointestinal pathogens, particularly viruses, in combination with defective immune regulation may cause inflammatory enteropathy in certain immunodeficient hosts. We reviewed publications related to prolonged enteric viral infection, immunodeficiency, and the subsequent development of inflammatory enteropathy. Prolonged infection with especially enteroviral infecti… Show more

“…They also stratified their analysis by income level of the country in which a case was reported to assess regional differences. A review by Van de Ven et al [37] explored the role of prolonged gastrointestinal infections in causing inflammatory enteropathy in patients with a PID. Poliovirus was among the enteroviruses examined, and the authors identified a select number of cases that were iVDPVs, with the most recent case reported in 2005.…”

“…Although the vaccines have been shown to be safe for HIV-infected infants in general [195,196], the SCID cases suggest that they remain unsafe for patients with very low T cell counts. Interestingly, only a few IEI patients, majority having SCID, have been reported to suffer from severe infections of wild-type rotavirus [197][198][199][200][201][202][203][204][205][206][207][208][209][210]. Although chronic diarrhea is a common manifestation in many IEIs, including SCID and antibody deficiencies, wild-type rotavirus does not seem to cause major problem for IEI patients.…”
