In vitro co-infection by cytomegalovirus improves the antiviral activity of ganciclovir against human adenovirus

Human adenovirus (HAdV) infection has an important clinical impact in the immunosuppressed population and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. The lack of a specific, safe and effective antiviral treatment against HAdV makes necessary the search for new therapeutic options. The aim...

The lack of a specific, safe and effective antiviral treatment against HAdV makes necessary the search for new therapeutic options. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro activity of ganciclovir (GCV) against HAdV in co-infection by human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and HAdV in cellular cultures. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to measure HAdV and HCMV DNA replication efficiency in monocultures and in co-infection situations in the presence of both cidofovir (CDV) and GCV. The effects of GCV and CDV were also evaluated in a burst assay (used to measure the production of virus particles) for both viruses, alone and in combination. GCV decreased by 1-log the HAdV DNA replication efficiency in co-infection with HCMV compared with its activity in HAdV monoculture. The burst assay showed that the reductions in virus yield in the presence of GCV were higher for HCMV and co-infection than for HAdV in monoculture (145.2±35.5- vs. 116.4±27.3- vs. 23.0±10.0-fold, respectively, P<0.05). The improved anti-HAdV activity of GCV during co-infection may be because of the more efficient phosphorylation of GCV by the HCMV protein kinase, UL97. Patients treated with GCV as pre-emptive therapy for HCMV infection may be considered as low-risk for developing HAdV infections; however, further evaluations are required to confirm these results.Supported by Plan Nacional de I+D+i 2013‐2016 and Instituto de Salud Carlos III, Subdirección General de Redes y Centros de Investigación Cooperativa, Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades, Spanish Network for Research in Infectious Diseases (REIPI RD16/0016/0009) - co‐financed by European Development Regional Fund “A way to achieve Europe”, Operative program Intelligent Growth 2014‐2020, the Carlos III Health Institute (PI15/00489; DTS17/00130; PI18/01191) and the Spanish Adenovirus Network (AdenoNet, BIO2015/68990-REDT) grants.Peer reviewedElsevierInstituto de Salud Carlos IIIMinisterio de Economía y Competitividad (España)Red Española de Investigación en Patología InfecciosaEuropean CommissionSpanish Adenovirus NetworkConsejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]2021202120202021info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Postprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/231344reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
