Underlying inflammation is considered to be detrimental to immune responses to influenza vaccine in PWH. Here, we tested the hypothesis that influenza vaccine responses in PWH with OUD would have a greater compromise than PWH without OUD or in people without HIV (PWoH) with OUD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We enrolled 244 participants based on OUD (OP+\/-) and HIV status (HIV+\/-) into an influenza vaccine study in which we analyzed hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer at pre- (T0) and approximately 7 days (T1), 4 weeks (T2), and 6 months (T3) post-vaccination with a seasonal quadrivalent influenza vaccine. The log2 of T2\/T0 fold change (FC) for each of the 4 antigens H1N1, H3N2, B1- Victoria, B2-Yamagata and whole vaccine was calculated. Regression modeling was conducted to assess effects of HIV and opioids and other covariates on antibody response.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>All participant groups (39 HIV+OP+, 66 HIV-OP+, 67 HIV+OP- and 71 HIV-OP-) demonstrated increases in HAI titer from T0 to T2 for all 4 antigens and whole vaccine with the HIV+OP- group manifesting the lowest HAI titers. The T2\/T0 FC for H3N2, B1, B2, and whole vaccine was greater in both OP+ groups (PWH and PWoH) than in HIV+OP-, and was similar to that in HIV-OP- control group. Significant interactions between HIV+ status and opioid use were observed after controlling for demographics, previous influenza vaccine history, baseline titers, and other substance use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Interaction between HIV and opioid use on immune function results in enhanced antibody response to influenza vaccination in PWH.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fimmu.2025.1686103","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]],"date-time":"2025-12-17T06:41:45Z","timestamp":1765953705000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Chronic opioid use is associated with higher antibody response to influenza vaccination in people living with HIV"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Christine M.","family":"Dang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.
