BACKGROUND:Fluoropyrimidines are widely used for the treatment of solid tumours, but they carry a significant risk of severe toxicity in patients with dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency. CASE PRESENTATION:We describe a 50-year-old male with colorectal cancer who received adjuvant XELOX (oxaliplatin and capecitabine) and developed life-threatening grade 3-4 toxicities. Routine DPYD genotyping showed no pathogenic variants. Subsequent DPYD exon sequencing identified three heterozygous variants: c.1627A>G, c.2194G>A, and c.2766+3A>T. The latter, a rare intronic variant, was demonstrated to cause exon 21 skipping by mRNA analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The patient presented a profound DPD deficiency. CONCLUSION:The c.2766+3A>T variant leads to a non-functional DPD enzyme and is a likely cause of severe fluoropyrimidine-related toxicity. This variant should be considered deleterious.

Background/Objectives: As a treatment, fluoropyrimidines are often associated with early moderate-to-severe toxicity. Although pre-emptive DPYD genotyping enables genotype-guided dosing, significant adverse events still occur in patients classified as DPYD wild-type (WT). The aim of this study was to identify DPYD variants and evaluate the contributions of TYMS, ENOSF1, CDH4, and CDA variants to fluoropyrimidine toxicity. Methods: A total of 256 European ancestry patients (aged ≥ 18 years, had completed ≥6 cycles of chemotherapy, and were WT for the DPYD variants routinely tested for) underwent genotyping for TYMS, ENOSF1, CDH4, and CDA variants, and full DPYD exon sequencing was performed in 56 of these patients. Toxicity was defined as fluoropyrimidine-related adverse events requiring a dose reduction. Multivariable models were adjusted for sex, fluoropyrimidine type, and the Charlson Comorbidity Index, and time-to-event was assessed using the Kaplan–Meier/Cox proportional hazards models. Results: A subgroup of 117 patients experienced toxicity requiring a dose reduction. The most frequent events were asthenia, gastrointestinal toxicity, hand–foot syndrome, and haematological toxicity. The ENOSF1 rs2612091 C allele was associated with fluoropyrimidine withdrawal and a shorter time to dose reduction. In the patients treated with 5-fluorouracil, TYMS rs11280056 was associated with toxicity. DPYD exon sequencing identified thirteen variants, nine of which were more prevalent in the toxicity group. These included a canonical splice site (c.150+1G>A) and a stop-gained (c.1863G>A) variant, which is predicted to result in loss of function. Conclusions: In real-world practice, despite undergoing standard DPYD genotyping, DPYD WT patients receiving a full dose of fluoropyrimidines develop clinically relevant toxicity. The presence of rare DPYD variants and associated genes (ENOSF1 and TYMS) suggests that broader, prospectively validated pharmacogenetic strategies may improve toxicity prevention.

Introduction Genetic variations impact drug response, driving the need for personalised medicine through pre-emptive pharmacogenetic testing. However, the adoption of pre-emptive pharmacogenetic testing for commonly prescribed drugs, such as tacrolimus, outside of tertiary hospitals is limited due to a lack of pharmacoeconomic evidence to support widespread implementation by healthcare policymakers. The iPHARMGx Consortium addresses this by developing the TRANSPGx clinical trial to assess the hypothesis that widespread adoption of a pre-emptive genotyping scheme in populations susceptible to receiving tacrolimus as immunosuppressive therapy following a kidney transplant is effective, cost-effective and feasible within the Spanish National Health System (SNHS) when compared to the standard of care tacrolimus dosing. Methods and analysis The TRANSPGx trial is a multicentre, adaptive, randomised, controlled, pragmatic phase IV clinical trial nested within the iPHARMGx master protocol, with two parallel arms, aiming for superiority. Randomisation will be conducted on an individual basis with a centralised approach, with stratification by centre. After inclusion in the trial and completion of genotyping, subjects will be randomly allocated to either the experimental group (pharmacogenetic genotype-guided tacrolimus prescription) or the standard of care tacrolimus prescription (as deemed by the attending physician). The primary objective is to assess the effectiveness of a tacrolimus pre-emptive genotyping strategy in reaching tacrolimus target plasma concentrations after renal transplant. A total of 114 subjects will be recruited among the different participating centres, provided that no futility/efficacy boundary is reached in the prespecified interim analyses. Recruitment will be carried out during a 12-month period, and subjects will be followed for a 6-month period. Ethics and dissemination The TRANSPGx trial received ethical approval on 16 January 2025 (La Paz University Hospital 2024.740). Results will be disseminated via publication in peer-reviewed journals as well as presentation at international conferences. Trial results will be submitted for publication in an open access peer-reviewed medical speciality-specific publication. Trial registration of this study can be located at both the EU Clinical Trials Register, available from https://euclinicaltrials.eu/search-for-clinical-trials/?lang=en and https://clinicaltrials.gov . Registration on both websites was done before the enrolment of the first patient complying with European regulations. The EU Clinical Trials Register is a primary registry according to the WHO. Trial registration number EU CT number: 2024–5 16 596-32−00/Clinical trial Identifier (ClinicalTrials.gov): NCT06701825 . Protocol V. 1.2, 8 January 2025.

Failure of anti-TNF therapy is a real concern in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) owing to the limited therapeutic arsenal. Anti-TNF drugs modulate the immune response, a key driver of chronic inflammation in IBD. Accordingly, we analyzed changes in the frequency of T-lymphocyte and cytokine levels after 6 weeks of treatment to identify potential biomarkers of response to anti-TNF drugs. We recruited 77 patients under 18 years of age diagnosed with IBD and treated with an anti-TNF drug. Using flow cytometry and multiplex ELISA, we analyzed 31 T-lymphocyte populations and four cytokines. We identified changes in 10 populations of T lymphocytes after 6 weeks of treatment. Naïve Tregs were associated with a primary response to anti-TNF drugs, while activated Tregs were associated with long-term response. Serum INF-γ levels were decreased after anti-TNF treatment in children with Crohn’s disease (CD), but not in those with ulcerative colitis (UC). The memory CD8+ Type 2 Cytotoxic T (Tc2) subset increased in non-responders with CD and the CD4+ memory Th17 cells increased in non-responders with UC. These findings could help us to understand the cellular regulation of anti-TNF therapy, to identify children at a higher risk of treatment failure, and, potentially, to develop more personalized therapeutic strategies.

La implementación de la farmacogenética en España ha sufrido un extraordinario impulso en el último año con la actualización de la cartera de servicios de genética del Sistema Nacional de Salud, la publicación de la base de datos nacional de biomarcadores farmacogenéticos en las fichas técnicas de los medicamentos y la generación y actualización de guías clínicas por parte de sociedades científicas y consorcios de expertos. Sin embargo, el alcance de esta implementación está bastante limitada en la población pediátrica debido a que la mayoría de los estudios que se hacen no incluyen a niños, lo que a su vez hace que, en muchas ocasiones, las guías no especifiquen qué hacer en esta población. En este artículo se revisan las pruebas incluidas en la cartera común de servicios de genética, los fármacos con recomendación farmacogenética en ficha técnica y las principales guías mundiales y nacionales de recomendaciones farmacogenéticas, y se extrae y analiza la información existente para la población pediátrica. Se presentan en mayor detalle aquellos pares fármaco/gen con un mayor uso en pediatría, como inhibidores de la bomba de protones y CYP2C19, abacavir, alopurinol, carbamazepina, oxcarbazepina y fenitoína con los genes HLA-A y HLA-B, voriconazol y CYP2C19, tacrolimus y CYP3A5, aminoglucósidos y MT-RNR1, tiopurinas y TMPT/NUDT15, y atomoxetina y CYP2D6. A pesar de las limitaciones, el uso de la farmacogenética en pediatría puede y debe implementarse en aquellos casos en que las agencias reguladoras y/o las sociedades científicas así lo recomiendan.

Vaginal infections in women of reproductive age represent a clinical dilemma with significant socioeconomic implications. The current understanding of mucosal immunity failure during early pathogenic invasions that allows the pathogen to grow and thrive is far from complete. Neutrophils infiltrate most tissues following circadian patterns as part of normal repair, regulation of microbiota, or immune surveillance and become more numerous after infection. Neutrophils are responsible for maintaining vaginal immunity. Specific to the vagina, neutrophils continuously infiltrate at high levels, although during ovulation, they retreat to avoid sperm damage and permit reproduction. Here we show that, after ovulation, progesterone promotes resident vaginal macrophage-neutrophil crosstalk by upregulating Yolk sac early fetal organs (FOLR2+) macrophage CXCl2 expression, in a TNFA-patrolling monocyte-derived macrophage-mediated (CX3CR1hiMHCIIhi-mediated) manner, to activate the neutrophils' capacity to eliminate sex-transmitted and opportunistic microorganisms. Indeed, progesterone plays an essential role in conciliating the balance between the commensal microbiota, sperm, and the threat of pathogens because progesterone not only promotes a flurry of neutrophils but also increases neutrophilic fury to restore immunity after ovulation to thwart pathogenic invasion after intercourse. Therefore, modest progesterone dysregulations could lead to a suboptimal neutrophilic response, resulting in insufficient mucosal defense and recurrent unresolved infections.

The possibility of using the same genotyping technology (TaqMan) for all the genetic tests included in the new Spanish pharmacogenomics portfolio should enable the application of a multigenotyping platform to obtain a whole pharmacogenomics profile. However, HLA-typing is usually performed with other technologies and needs to be adapted to TaqMan assays. Our aim was to establish a set of TaqMan assays for correct typing of HLA-A*31:01, HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*57:01, and HLA-B*58:01. Therefore, we searched for and selected SNVs described in different populations as surrogate markers for these HLA alleles, designed TaqMan assays, and tested in a set of samples with known HLA-A and HLA-B. HLA-A*31:01 was correctly typed with a combination of rs1061235 and rs17179220 (PPV 100%, 95% CI 84.6-100-%; NPV 100%, 95% CI 96.5-100.0%), HLA-B*15:02 with rs10484555 (PPV 100%, 95% CI 69.2-100.0%; NPV 100%, 95% CI 96.8-100.0%) and rs144012689 (PPV 100%, 95% CI 69.2-100.0%; NPV 100%, 95% CI 96.8-100.0%), and HLA-B*57:01 with rs2395029 (PPV 99.5%, 95% CI 72.9-99.3%; NPV 99.5%, 95% CI 98.3-100.0%). HLA-B*58:01 was typed using two allele-specific TaqMan probes mixed with a ß-Globin reference and treated as a genotyping assay (PPV 100.0%, 95% CI 81.5-100.0%; NPV 100%, 95% CI 96.8-100.0%). In conclusion, we demonstrated a clinically useful way to type HLA-A and HLA-B alleles included in the Spanish pharmacogenomics portfolio using TaqMan assays.

Background Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of infliximab has been shown to be a effective strategy for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) modeling can predict trough concentrations for individualized dosing. Objective The aim of this study was to develop a PopPK model of infliximab in a paediatric population with IBD, assessing the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other biomarkers on infliximab clearance. Methods This observational and ambispective single-centre study was conducted in paediatric patients with IBD treated with infliximab between July 2016 and July 2022 in the Paediatric Gastroenterology Service of the Hospital Universitari Vall d’Hebron (HUVH) (Spain). Demographic, clinical, and analytical variables were collected. Twenty SNPs potentially associated with variations in the response to infliximab plasma concentrations were analysed. infliximab serum concentrations and antibodies to infliximab (ATI) were determined by ELISA. PopPK modelling was performed using nonlinear mixed-effects analysis (NONMEM). Results Thirty patients (21 males) were included. The median age (range) at the start of infliximab treatment was 13 years (16 months to 16 years). A total of 190 samples were obtained for model development (49 [25.8%] during the induction phase). The pharmacokinetics (PK) of infliximab were described using a two-compartment model. Weight, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), faecal calprotectin (FC), and the SNP rs1048610 ( ADAM17 ) showed statistical significance for clearance (CL), and albumin for inter-compartmental clearance (Q). Estimates of CL1 (genotype 1-AA), CL2 (genotype 2-AG), CL3 (genotype 3-GG), Q, V c , and V p (central and peripheral distribution volumes) were 0.0066 L/h/46.4 kg, 0.0055 L/h/46.4 kg, 0.0081 L/h/46.4 kg, 0.0029 L/h/46.4 kg, 0.6750 L/46.4 kg, and 1.19 L/46.4 kg, respectively. The interindividual variability (IIV) estimates for clearance, V c , and V p were 19.33, 16.42, and 36.02%, respectively. Conclusions A popPK model utilising weight, albumin, FC, ESR, and the SNP rs1048610 accurately predicted infliximab trough concentrations in children with IBD.

Introduction Genetic variations impact drug response, driving the need for personalised medicine through pre-emptive pharmacogenetic testing. However, the adoption of pre-emptive pharmacogenetic testing for commonly prescribed drugs, such as statins, outside of tertiary hospitals is limited due to a lack of pharmacoeconomic evidence to support widespread implementation by healthcare policy-makers. The Spanish Consortium for the Implementation of Pharmacogenetics (iPHARMGx Consortium) addresses this by developing a clinical trial master protocol that will govern multiple nested adaptive clinical trials that compare genotype-guided treatments to standard care in specific drug–gene–population triads, asses their cost-efficacy and identify novel biomarkers through advanced sequencing techniques. The first of these studies aims to assess whether a pre-emptive statin therapy genotyping scheme reduces the incidence of statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS) in a population at risk of cardiovascular disease susceptible of receiving high-intensity or moderate-intensity doses of statins: The PREVESTATGx trial.Methods and analysis the PREVESTATGX trial is a multicentre, adaptive randomised controlled pragmatic phase IV clinical trial nested to the iPHARMGx master protocol with two parallel arms, aiming for superiority. Randomisation will be conducted on an individual basis with a centralised approach and stratification by centre. After inclusion in the trial and genotyping has been performed, subjects will be randomly allocated to experimental group (pharmacogenetic genotype-guided statin prescription) or standard-of-care statin prescription (as deemed by attending physician). The main objective is to assess the efficacy of a statin pre-emptive genotyping strategy in reducing the incidence of SAMS. A total of 225 subjects will be recruited among the 10 participating centres if no futility/efficacy boundary is reached in the prespecified interim analyses. Recruitment will be carried out during a 12-month period and subjects will be followed for a 9-month period.Ethics and dissemination The PREVESTATGx trial received ethical approval on 24 April 2024. Results will be disseminated via publication in peer-reviewed journals as well as presentation at international conferences. Trial results will be submitted for publication in an open-access peer-reviewed medical speciality-specific publication.Trial registration number EU CT number: 2023-509418-12-00/Clinical trial Identifier (ClinicalTrials.gov): NCT06262685.

Background/aims: Changes in gene expression profiles among individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) could potentially influence the responsiveness to anti-TNF treatment. The aim of this study was to identify genes that could serve as predictors of early response to anti-TNF therapies in pediatric IBD patients prior to the initiation of treatment. Methods: We conducted a prospective, longitudinal, and multicenter study, enrolling 24 pediatric IBD patients aged less than 18 years who were initiating treatment with either infliximab or adalimumab. RNA-seq from blood samples was analyzed using the DESeq2 library by comparing responders and non-responders to anti-TNF drugs. Results: Bioinformatic analyses unveiled 102 differentially expressed genes, with 99 genes exhibiting higher expression in responders compared to non-responders prior to the initiation of anti-TNF therapy. Functional enrichment analyses highlighted defense response to Gram-negative bacteria (FDR = 2.3 ×10–7) as the most significant biological processes, and hemoglobin binding (FDR = 0.002), as the most significant molecular function. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) revealed notable enrichment in transcriptional misregulation in cancer (FDR = 0.016). Notably, 13 genes (CEACAM8, CEACAM6, CILP2, COL17A1, OLFM4, INHBA, LCN2, LTF, MMP8, DEFA4, PRTN3, AZU1, and ELANE) were selected for validation, and a consistent trend of increased expression in responders prior to drug administration was observed for most of these genes, with findings for 4 of them being statistically significant (CEACAM8, LCN2, LTF2, and PRTN3). Conclusions: We identified 102 differentially expressed genes involved in the response to anti-TNF drugs in children with IBDs and validated CEACAM8, LCN2, LTF2, and PRTN3. Genes participating in defense response to Gram-negative bacterium, serine-type endopeptidase activity, and transcriptional misregulation in cancer are good candidates for anticipating the response to anti-TNF drugs in children with IBDs.

The genetic polymorphisms rs2395185 and rs2097432 in HLA genes have been associated with the response to anti-TNF treatment in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim was to analyze the association between these variants and the long-term response to anti-TNF drugs in pediatric IBD. We performed an observational, multicenter, ambispective study in which we selected 340 IBD patients under 18 years of age diagnosed with IBD and treated with anti-TNF drugs from a network of Spanish hospitals. Genotypes and failure of anti-TNF drugs were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox logistic regression. The homozygous G allele of rs2395185 and the C allele of rs2097432 were associated with impaired long-term response to anti-TNF drugs in children with IBD after 3 and 9 years of follow-up. Being a carrier of both polymorphisms increased the risk of anti-TNF failure. The SNP rs2395185 but not rs2097432 was associated with response to infliximab in adults with CD treated with infliximab but not in children after 3 or 9 years of follow-up. Conclusions: SNPs rs2395185 and rs2097432 were associated with a long-term response to anti-TNFs in IBD in Spanish children. Differences between adults and children were observed in patients diagnosed with CD and treated with infliximab.

Vitamin D is an environmental factor related to multiple sclerosis that plays a significant role in immune regulation. TGF-β is a superfamily of cytokines with an important dual effect on the immune system. TGF-β inhibits the Th1 response while facilitating the preservation of regulatory T cells (FOXP3+) in an immunoregulatory capacity. However, when IL-6 is present, it stimulates the Th17 response. Our aim was to analyze the regulatory effect of vitamin D on the in vivo TGF-β signaling pathway in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). A total of 21 patients with vitamin D levels < 30 ng/mL were recruited and supplemented with oral vitamin D. All patients were receiving disease-modifying therapy, with the majority being on natalizumab. Expression of SMAD7, ERK1, ZMIZ1, BMP2, BMPRII, BMP4, and BMP5 was measured in CD4+ lymphocytes isolated from peripheral blood at baseline and one and six months after supplementation. SMAD7 was overexpressed at six months with respect to baseline and month one. ERK1 was overexpressed at six months with respect to month one of treatment. No significant differences in expression were observed for the remaining genes. No direct correlation was found with serum vitamin D levels. BMPRII expression changed differentially in non–natalizumab- versus natalizumab-treated patients. Changes were observed in the expression of ERK1, BMP2, and BMP5 based on disease activity measured using the Rio-Score, BMP2 in patients who had relapses, and BMP5 in those whose EDSS worsened. Our results suggest indirect regulation of vitamin D in TGF-β pathway genes in patients with RRMS.

Background: To predict primary failure of infliximab (IFX) therapy in Crohn's disease (CD) and to identify pa-tients who maintain long-term effectiveness to IFX is currently not feasible. Some genetic variations are proposed as potential biomarkers.Aim: We assessed a set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes related to the IFX mechanism of action and the presence of HLA-DQA1 * 05 allele on the primary response and long-term durability in CD patients.Methods: A multi-centre cross-sectional study of IFX-exposed adult patients with CD was undertaken. Treatment persistence and time to failure were co-primary endpoints. DNA from the 131 patients was genotyped. Associ-ation between SNPs and clinical variables with IFX persistence was assessed.Results: Failure to IFX was documented in 65 (49.6%) out of 131 patients. IFX persistence was associated either with carrying the TT genotype in ADAM17 rs10929587 (ORa=0.2; 95%CI=0.1-0.8; p = 0.021), or the CC ge-notype in SLCO1C1 rs3794271 (ORa=0.2; 95%CI=0.1-0.7; p = 0.008), according to multivariate logistic regression. In contrast, previous bowel resection increased the risk of IFX failure (ORa=2.8; 95%CI=1.1-7.3; p = 0.025). Cox regression analysis confirmed these findings and also identified IL23R rs10489629-TT (HRa 0.41; 95%CI=0.22-0.75; p = 0.004) and concomitant immunosuppressants (HRa 0.46; 95%CI=0.27-0.77; p = 0.003) as protection from IFX failure. However, no association between HLA-DQA1 * 05 allele and persistence of IFX therapy was found, with similar failure rates among carriers and non-carriers (52.8% vs. 47.4%, respectively; p = 0.544).Conclusions: SNPs rs10929587-TT in ADAM17, rs10489629-TT in IL23R and rs3794271-CC in SLCO1C1, together with no previous bowel surgery and concomitant immunosuppression, were identified as protection from failure to IFX.

Background: The variant rs34983651 (UGT1A1*28) and its genotyping are used to prevent irinotecan-induced toxicity. Several variants are in close linkage disequilibrium. Our objective was to evaluate the potential correlation of genotyping UGT1A1*80 instead of UGT1A1*28 in different populations. Methods: We studied SNPs in linkage disequilibrium with UGT1A1*28 in several populations and selected rs887829 to develop an inexpensive and rapid genotyping method and compare it with the one we currently use for UGT1A1*28 genotyping. Samples from cancer patients (n = 701) already tested using PCR and electrophoresis prior to treatment with irinotecan for rs34983651 (UGT1A1*28) in a Spanish hospital were genotyped for rs887829 (UGT1A1*80) using real-time PCR with a TaqMan probe. Results: We observed a complete match for both genotypes, except in one sample. This method was 100% efficient in correctly genotyping *28/*28 patients, 99.68% efficient for *1/*28, and 100% efficient for *1/*1. Linkage disequilibrium between populations showed the Iberian population to be the most suitable for the clinical use of UGT1A1*80. This method is less expensive and the time to decision is shorter. Conclusion: Genotyping of rs887829 using the proposed method may be used to substitute genotyping of rs34983651 as a pharmacogenetics test in cancer patients prior to starting irinotecan-based treatments, mainly in the Iberian population. In addition, it is less expensive than other conventional methods and easy to implement, with a shorter time to decision than UGT1A1*28.

Since December 2019, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has spread throughout the world. To eradicate it, it is crucial to acquire a strong and long-lasting anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunity, by either natural infection or vaccination. We collected blood samples 12–305 days after positive polymerase chain reactions (PCRs) from 35 recovered individuals infected by SARS-CoV-2. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with SARS-CoV-2-derived peptide pools, such as the Spike (S), Nucleocapsid (N), and Membrane (M) proteins, and we quantified anti-S immunoglobulins in plasma. After 10 months post-infection, we observed a sustained SARS-CoV-2-specific CD4+ T-cell response directed against M-protein, but responses against S- or N-proteins were lost over time. Besides, we demonstrated that A-group individuals presented significantly higher frequencies of specific CD4+ T-cell responses against Pep-M than O-group individuals. The A-group subjects also needed longer to clear the virus and they lost cellular immune responses over time, compared to the O-group individuals, who showed a persistent specific immune response against SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, the S-specific immune response was lost over time, and individual factors determine the sustainability of the body’s defences, which must be considered in the future design of vaccines to achieve continuous anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunity. Summary This work describes that cellular responses against SARS-CoV-2 M-protein can be detected after 10 months but were lost against S- and N-proteins. Moreover, the individual factors; ABO-group and age influence the sustainability of the specific humoral and cellular immunity against SARS-CoV-2.

Although a cure is the main goal of a treatment, serious adverse reactions associated with these treatments are a major problem in clinical practice and cost a lot of money for health systems [...].

SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 200 million people worldwide, with more than 4 million associated deaths. Although more than 80% of infected people develop asymptomatic or mild COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 can induce a profound dysregulation of the immune system. Therefore, it is important to investigate whether clinically recovered individuals present immune sequelae. The potential presence of a long-term dysregulation of the immune system could constitute a risk factor for re-infection and the development of other pathologies. Here, we performed a deep analysis of the immune system in 35 COVID-19 recovered individuals previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 compared to 16 healthy donors, by flow cytometry. Samples from COVID-19 individuals were analysed from 12 days to 305 days post-infection. We observed that, 10 months post-infection, recovered COVID-19 patients presented alterations in the values of some T-cell, B-cell, and innate cell subsets compared to healthy controls. Moreover, we found in recovered COVID-19 individuals increased levels of circulating follicular helper type 1 (cTfh1), plasmablast/plasma cells, and follicular dendritic cells (foDC), which could indicate that the Tfh-B-foDC axis might be functional to produce specific immunoglobulins 10 months post-infection. The presence of this axis and the immune system alterations could constitute prognosis markers and could play an important role in potential re-infection or the presence of long-term symptoms in some individuals.
