In patients with chronic hepatitis C, the
effects of direct‐acting antiviral agents on the frequency of myeloid‐derived
suppressor cells and natural killer cells.
Currently, hepatitis C antiviral therapy is getting
into a new era with the use of direct‐acting antiviral (DAA) agents.
However, the precise immunologic influences of DAA
medical care in patients with chronic viral hepatitis (CHC) are insufficiently
understood.
This study aimed to research the results of DAA
medical care on the frequency of myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), T
lymphocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells in patients with CHC.
Thirty‐two
treatment‐naive CHC patients were treated with DAA therapy, and therefore the
frequency of immune cells was analyzed by flow cytometry at numerous time
points throughout and once the therapy. Sixteen healthy donors were recruited
for comparison.
DAA medical
care slashed the frequency of MDSCs and monocytic MDSCs in patients with CHC to
a standard level. DAA medical care additionally exaggerated the CD8+ T and NK
cell levels in patients with CHC.
Additionally, activation (NKp30 associated NKp46)
and repressing (NKG2A) receptors on NK cells were downregulated to yield an NK
cell constitution resembling that determined within the healthy controls.
This study provides insight into the social control
of immune cell levels below DAA medical care and indicates that restoration of
the system in patients with CHC powerfully supports long‐term curative
hepatitis C virus destruction.
