Effect of Mycobacterial Infection on Immune Status (EMIIS)
4 juin 2026 mis à jour par: Chao Cao, Ph.D., First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University
This study, titled "Effect of Mycobacterial Infection on Immune Status" (EMIIS), investigates the immune-driven mechanisms of mycobacterial infections, focusing on the dynamic immune characteristics of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections, and tuberculous pleurisy.
Mycobacterial infections (including the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and nontuberculous mycobacteria) remain a major global public health threat.
EMIIS is a single-center, randomized, single-blind,prospective study.
The study recruited 120 participants, divided into groups of healthy individuals/community-acquired pneumonia patients, active pulmonary tuberculosis patients, latent tuberculosis infection patients, tuberculous pleurisy patients, and nontuberculous mycobacteria patients.
Blood samples were collected from all groups within 3 days before treatment and 2-3 months after treatment.
Pleural effusion samples were additionally collected from the tuberculous pleurisy group within 3 days before treatment and 2 months after treatment.
Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) was collected from the nontuberculous mycobacteria group.
Utilizing mass cytometry (CyTOF) and multi-dimensional indicators, the study aims to elucidate the immune-driven mechanisms of mycobacterial infections and provide new strategies for individualized treatment.

Immunometabolic differences between DS-TB and MDR-TB
Using a prospective, single-center, observational study design, it is planned to enroll 30 patients divided into drug-susceptible tuberculosis and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis.
CyTOF technology was used to analyze the differences in immune subsets and metabolic functions.

|
To assess the effect of immune status on NTM
A total of 15 patients over the age of 18 diagnosed with non-tuberculous mycobacteria were included, and peripheral blood samples were collected after 2 months of treatment to analyze the changes in immune status and metabolic status of non-tuberculous mycobacterial patients in healthy people.

Significance of studying the immunometabolic status of tuberculous pleurisy
A total of 20 patients over the age of 18 diagnosed with tuberculous pleurisy were included in the plan, divided into high-symptom and low-symptomatic groups, and pleural fluid and peripheral blood samples were collected before and after treatment to analyze the changes in their immune status and metabolic status before and after treatment.

|
Study of immunometabolic status in different states of tuberculosis
A total of 15 patients over the age of 18 diagnosed with active pulmonary tuberculosis and 10 patients with latent pulmonary tuberculosis were enrolled, and peripheral blood samples were collected before and after treatment to analyze the changes in their immune status and metabolic status before and after treatment.

A study of exhaled air condensate in NTM patients versus CAP patients
A total of 30 patients over the age of 18 diagnosed with nontuberculous mycobacteria and 30 healthy or community pneumonia patients were enrolled, and their exhaled air condensate was collected before or within 2 weeks after treatment to analyze its composition.

Using CyTOF with a 41-metal-labeled antibody panel, peripheral blood samples from healthy controls and untreated patients with tuberculous pleurisy were analyzed.
After data normalization and debarcoding, clustering was applied to determine the percentages of CD45+ leukocyte subsets (Th1, Th17, classical monocytes, CD4+/CD8+ effector memory T cells, and NK cells).
Patients were divided into high- and low-symptom groups based on symptom severity.
Immune subset proportions were compared between each patient group and healthy controls, as well as between the two patient groups.

Using CyTOF with an antibody panel including metabolic markers such as GLUT1 and CPT1A, the expression levels of these markers were measured in peripheral blood immune subsets (CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, monocytes, etc.) from healthy controls and untreated patients with tuberculous pleurisy.
The median fluorescence intensity (MdFI) of GLUT1 and CPT1A on each subset was used as the primary metric to quantify differences in glucose metabolism and fatty acid oxidation capacity.
