BACKGROUND: The effects of the widely used progestin-only injectable contraceptives, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and norethisterone acetate (NET-A), on host susceptibility to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) are unknown.
METHODS: We recruited human immunodeficiency virus-uninfected females, not taking any contraceptives, from Cape Town, South Africa, to evaluate the effect of MPA, NET-A, and dexamethasone on Mtb containment in monocyte-derived macrophages co-incubated with purified protein derivative (PPD)-driven peripheral blood-derived effector cells.
RESULTS: MPA (P < .005) and dexamethasone (P < .01), but not NET-A, significantly attenuated Mtb containment in Mtb-infected macrophages co-cultured with PPD-driven effector cells at physiologically relevant concentrations and in a dose-dependent manner. Antagonizing the glucocorticoid receptor with mifepristone (RU486) abrogated the reduction in Mtb containment. In PPD-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells, MPA and dexamethasone, but not NET-A, upregulated (median [interquartile range]) regulatory T cells (5.3% [3.1%-18.2%]; P < .05), reduced CD4+ T-cell interferon-γ (21% [0.5%-28%]; P < .05) and granzyme B production (12.6% [7%-13.5%]; P < .05), and reduced CD8+ perforin activity (2.2% [0.1%-7%]; P < .05). RU486 reversed regulatory T-cell up-regulation and the inhibitory effect on Th1 and granzyme/perforin-related pathways.
CONCLUSIONS: MPA, but not NET-A, subverts mycobacterial containment in vitro and downregulates pathways associated with protective CD8+- and CD4+-related host immunity via the glucocorticoid receptor. These data potentially inform the selection and use of injectable contraceptives in tuberculosis-endemic countries.
