HIV-exposure, early life feeding practices and delivery mode impacts on faecal bacterial profiles in a South African birth cohort.
There are limited data on meconium and faecal bacterial profiles from African infants and their mothers. We characterized faecal bacterial communities of infants and mothers participating in a South African birth cohort. Stool and meconium specimens were collected from 90 mothers and 107 infants at birth, and from a subset of 72 and 36 infants at 4-12 and 20-28 weeks of age, respectively. HIV-unexposed infants were primarily exclusively breastfed at 4-12 (49%, 26/53) and 20-28 weeks (62%, 16/26). In contrast, HIV-exposed infants were primarily exclusively formula fed at 4-12 (53%; 10/19) and 20-28 weeks (70%, 7/10). Analysis (of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences of the V4 hypervariable region) of the 90 mother-infant pairs showed that meconium bacterial profiles [dominated by Proteobacteria (89%)] were distinct from those of maternal faeces [dominated by Firmicutes (66%) and Actinobacteria (15%)]. Actinobacteria predominated at 4-12 (65%) and 20-28 (50%) weeks. HIV-exposed infants had significantly higher faecal bacterial diversities at both 4-12 (p = 0.026) and 20-28 weeks (p = 0.002). HIV-exposed infants had lower proportions of Bifidobacterium (p = 0.010) at 4-12 weeks. Maternal faecal bacterial profiles were influenced by HIV status, feeding practices and mode of delivery. Further longitudinal studies are required to better understand how these variables influence infant and maternal faecal bacterial composition.

Meconium Tenofovir Concentrations and Growth and Bone Outcomes in Prenatally Tenofovir Exposed HIV-Uninfected Children.
Maternal tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment among HIV-infected pregnant women results in fetal tenofovir (TFV) exposure. Fetal TFV toxicity was demonstrated in animals, but most clinical investigations have not observed toxicity in humans.. We evaluated HIV-exposed, uninfected infants in the Surveillance Monitoring for Antiretroviral Therapy Toxicities cohort of the Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study whose mothers were prescribed TDF for ≥ 8 third trimester weeks. Infant dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans were obtained at 0-4 weeks to measure whole body bone mineral content. Meconium TFV concentrations were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.. Fifty-eight TFV-exposed infants had meconium TFV quantified. Detectable concentrations were 11-48,100 ng/g; 3 infants had undetectable concentrations. Maternal TDF prescription duration ranged from 8 to 41 gestational weeks; infant gestational ages were 36-41 weeks. Meconium TFV concentrations were not correlated with TFV exposure duration or timing and did not vary by concomitant prescription of protease inhibitors. Increased meconium TFV concentrations were associated with greater gestational ages (ρ = 0.29, P = 0.03) and lower maternal plasma HIV RNA before delivery (ρ = -0.29, P = 0.04). Meconium TFV concentrations were not associated with infant weight, length (n = 58) or bone mineral content (n = 49).. For the first time, we explored associations between meconium TFV concentrations and infant growth and bone measurements; we did not observe a meconium concentration-dependent relationship for these infant outcomes. These findings support other clinical research failing to show dose-response relationships for growth and bone outcomes among intrauterine TFV-exposed infants. High meconium TFV concentrations correlated with low maternal viral load, suggesting maternal TDF adherence significantly contributes to meconium TFV concentrations.

Antiretroviral Drugs in Meconium: Detection for Different Gestational Periods of Exposure.
To determine whether antiretroviral (ARV) medications can be detected in meconium from second or third trimester, labor and delivery (L&D), or postnatal exposures.. Twenty ARV medications were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in 598 meconium samples from uninfected infants born to pregnant women with HIV enrolled in the Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study.. ARV detection in meconium following third trimester exposure was 85.7%-94.4% for all ARVs except stavudine (0%, n = 2), likely because of low doses and a high limit for quantification. Of 107 samples with some second trimester only ARV exposures, meconium was positive for only lopinavir, tenofovir, or efavirenz in 11.8%-14.3% of exposed neonates; administration of these ARVs occurred between gestational weeks 25-28 in the positive samples. Days without lopinavir or tenofovir before delivery significantly correlated with decreasing concentrations of lopinavir and tenofovir in meconium. Tenofovir and lamivudine concentrations significantly correlated with increasing gestational age among infants with continuous second and third trimester exposure. Zidovudine given during L&D or for neonatal prophylaxis was detected in 95.1% and 94.6% of meconium samples, respectively.. Changes in ARV treatments during pregnancy offered a unique opportunity to investigate ARV detection in meconium. ARVs in meconium primarily reflect third trimester ARV exposures, although 6 of 107 second trimester only exposures were detected. Zidovudine administration during L&D was detected in meconium indicating potential urine contamination or rapid incorporation into meconium. These data will improve interpretation of meconium drug test results.

Meconium Atazanavir Concentrations and Early Language Outcomes in HIV-Exposed Uninfected Infants With Prenatal Atazanavir Exposure.
To investigate whether prenatal atazanavir (ATV) exposure, assessed by meconium antiretroviral (ARV) quantification, predicts early child language outcomes. Prenatal ATV exposure previously was associated with poorer language development in 1-year olds.. Pregnant women with HIV and their uninfected infants enrolled in the Surveillance Monitoring of Antiretroviral Therapy Toxicities study. Meconium ARV concentrations were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Language development at 1 year was assessed with MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory (CDI) and Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition (Bayley-III). Late language emergence was defined as ≥ 1 of 4 CDI scores ≤ 10th percentile for age. Associations between fetal ATV exposure timing and duration, meconium ATV concentration, and language outcomes were evaluated, adjusting for potential confounders.. Through 2013, meconium samples were available from 175 of 432 infants with prenatal ATV exposure. Valid Bayley-III (n = 93) and CDI (n = 106) assessments also were available. After adjustment for potential confounders, higher ATV meconium concentrations were associated with lower late language emergence risk (P = 0.04) and cumulative ATV exposure duration also was associated with higher Bayley-III Language scores (P = 0.03). Maternal ATV duration and initiation week correlated with ATV meconium concentrations (positively and negatively, respectively).. Higher meconium ATV concentrations were protective against developmental language delays at 1 year, suggesting the importance of fetal ATV detoxification into meconium. This information supports ATV exposure safety for infant language development. ATV is a preferred ARV for pregnant women with HIV, suggesting the importance of ATV safety investigations. Additionally, further pursuit of the influences on language development in HIV-exposed uninfected infants is required.

Development and validation of the first liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry assay for simultaneous quantification of multiple antiretrovirals in meconium.
A novel method for the simultaneous quantification of 16 antiretroviral (ARV) drugs and 4 metabolites in meconium was developed and validated. Quantification of 6 nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors, 2 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, 7 protease inhibitors, and 1 integrase inhibitor was achieved in 0.25 g of meconium. Specimen preparation included methanol homogenization and solid-phase extraction. Separate positive and negative polarity multiple reaction monitoring mode injections were required to achieve sufficient sensitivity. Linearity ranged from 10 to 75 ng/g up to 2500 ng/g for most analytes and 100-500 ng/g up to 25,000 ng/g for some; all correlation coefficients were ≥0.99. Extraction efficiencies from meconium were 32.8-119.5% with analytical recovery of 80.3-108.3% and total imprecision of 2.2-11.0% for all quantitative analytes. Two analytes with analytical recovery (70.0-138.5%) falling outside the 80-120% criteria range were considered semiquantitative. Matrix effects were -98.3-47.0% and -98.0-67.2% for analytes and internal standards, respectively. Analytes were stable (>75%) at room temperature for 24 h, 4 °C for 3 days, -20 °C for 3 freeze-thaw cycles over 3 days, and on the autosampler. Method applicability was demonstrated by analyzing meconium from HIV-uninfected infants born to HIV-positive mothers on ARV therapy. This method can be used as a tool to investigate the potential effects of in utero ARV exposure on childhood health and neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Substance use in HIV-Infected women during pregnancy: self-report versus meconium analysis.
We evaluated prenatal substance use in a cohort of 480 HIV-infected women and their uninfected children. Substance use was reported by 29%; the most common substances reported were tobacco (18%), alcohol (10%), and marijuana (7.2%). Fewer than 4% of women reported cocaine or opiate use. Substance use was more common in the first trimester (25%) than the second (17%) and third (15%) (trend p-value <0.01), and was associated with race/ethnicity, education, birthplace, age and marital status. For 264 mother/infant pairs with meconium results, sensitivity of self-report was 86% for tobacco, 80% for marijuana and 67% for cocaine. Higher discordance between self-report and urine/blood toxicology was observed for cocaine, marijuana and opiates in a non-random subset of mothers/infants with these tests. Findings suggest reasonably complete self-reporting of substance use as confirmed by meconium analysis. Illicit substance use was low and substantially less than that reported in earlier studies of HIV-infected women, but alcohol and tobacco exposure was prevalent.
