PurposeInitial military training (IMT) is a transitionary period wherein immune function may be suppressed and infection risk heightened due to physical and psychological stress, communal living, and sleep deprivation. This study characterized changes in biomarkers of innate and adaptive immune function, and potential modulators of those changes, in military recruits during IMT.MethodsPeripheral leukocyte distribution and mitogen-stimulated cytokine profiles were measured in fasted blood samples, Epstein-Barr (EBV), varicella zoster (VZV), and herpes simplex 1 (HSV1) DNA was measured in saliva by quantitative polymerase chain reaction as an indicator of latent herpesvirus reactivation, and diet quality was determined using the healthy eating index measured by food frequency questionnaire in 61 US Army recruits (97% male) at the beginning (PRE) and end (POST) of 22-wk IMT.ResultsLymphocytes and terminally differentiated cluster of differentiation (CD)4+ and CD8+ T cells increased PRE to POST, whereas granulocytes, monocytes, effector memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and central memory CD8+ T cells decreased (P <= 0.02). Cytokine responses to anti-CD3/CD28 stimulation were higher POST compared with PRE, whereas cytokine responses to lipopolysaccharide stimulation were generally blunted (P < 0.05). Prevalence of EBV reactivation was higher at POST (P = 0.04), but neither VZV nor HSV1 reactivation was observed. Diet quality improvements were correlated with CD8+ cell maturation and blunted proinflammatory cytokine responses to anti-CD3/CD28 stimulation.ConclusionsLymphocytosis, maturation of T-cell subsets, and increased T-cell reactivity were evident POST compared with PRE IMT. Although EBV reactivation was more prevalent at POST, no evidence of VZV or HSV1 reactivation, which are more common during severe stress, was observed. Findings suggest increases in the incidence of EBV reactivation were likely appropriately controlled by recruits and immune-competence was not compromised at the end of IMT.
