However, we found an emergence of novel clonotypes in MDS patients who responded to treatment, while non-responders had a higher frequency of contracted clonotypes following treatment. By applying GLIPH2 for antigen prediction, we found rare TCR specificity clusters shared by TCR clonotypes from different patients at pre- or following treatment. Our data show clear differences in TCR repertoires of MDS compared with healthy patients and that novel TCR clonotype emergence in response to HMA therapy was correlated with response. This suggests that response to HMA therapy may be partially driven by T-cell mediated immunity and that the immune-based therapies, which target the adaptive immune system, may play a significant role in select patients with MDS.Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is not cleared by the initial immune response but persists for the lifetime of the host, in part due to its ability to establish a latent infection in cells of the myeloid lineage. HCMV has been shown to manipulate the secretion of cellular proteins during both lytic and latent infection; with changes caused by latent infection mainly investigated in CD34+ progenitor cells. Whilst CD34+ cells are generally bone marrow resident, their derivative CD14+ monocytes migrate to the periphery where they briefly circulate until extravasation into tissue sites. We have analyzed the effect of HCMV latent infection on the secretome of CD14+ monocytes, identifying an upregulation of both CCL8 and CXCL10 chemokines in the CD14+ latency-associated secretome. Unlike CD34+ cells, the CD14+ latency-associated secretome did not induce migration of resting immune cell subsets but did induce migration of activated NK and T cells expressing CXCR3 in a CXCL10 dependent manner.
