Summary

Introduction. Chronic graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) is the main late noninfectious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) that can affect several organs. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is recognized as pulmonary chronic GVHD. A diagnosis of a lower respiratory tract infection in the first 100 days following transplant has been associated to the development of BOS. One hypothesis is that the first stage driving to BOS is a previous aggression of bronchial epithelial cells by various factors such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Thereafter, data suggest that viral infections, in particular Parainfluenza viruses could be a trigger for BOS. The alloimmune reaction activated by the respiratory virus could lead to the fibrosis process. Our hypothesis is that the bronchial epithelium of allogeneic HSCT recipients has phenotypic specificities that are associated with a specific response to the viral respiratory infections (in particular paramyxovirus) leading to the development of BOS.

Main objective. To characterize and compare the inflammatory response after infection with Parainfluenza 3 virus in an ex-vivo model of bronchial epithelial cells obtained from allogeneic HSCT recipients and controls.

Objective secondary. To characterize the phenotypic specificities of allogeneic HSCT recipients' bronchial epithelium.

Methodology, and experimental plan. Prospective, monocentric research. Bronchial biopsies obtained from patients, will be completely differentiated after 21 days of culture. Epithelial cells will be infected by the virus strain Parainfluenza 3. Transcriptome of the cells from both allogeneic HSCT patients and controls, infected and non-infected will be analyzed 48 hours after infection.
