Effect of Mycobacterial Infection on Immune Status (EMIIS)
4. juni 2026 oppdatert av: 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.

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.
