Abstract:
:Among immunological abnormalities present in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected individuals are dysregulation of cytokine production and CD4 down-regulation in both T-helper cells and monocytes/macrophages. The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein 120 (gp120) has the ability to induce different cytokines in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and in monocytes/macrophages in vitro which in some instances have been reported to down-regulate macrophage CD4 expression. This study provides evidence that HIV-1 recombinant gp120 (rgp120) down-regulates both surface and total CD4 expression in primary tissue culture-differentiated macrophages (TCDM) at the level of transcription. The CD4 down-regulation observed in TCDM occurred between 6 and 12 hr after rgp120 treatment preceded by a peak of endogenous tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) observed at 3-6 hr post-treatment. We demonstrate that the TCDM CD4 down-regulation observed after rgp120 treatment was inhibited by the use of an anti-huTNF-alpha monoclonal antibody (mAb), but not by mAb directed against other cytokines induced by rgp120, such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha). The present findings roughly parallel those observed both in the sera of patients and in the monocytes/macrophages isolated from HIV-positive individuals, suggesting that gp120 by stimulating endogenous TNF-alpha production could be a good candidate for the CD4 down-regulation observed in the monocytes/macrophages of HIV-1-infected individuals. In contrast to CD4 down-regulation in HIV-infected lymphocytes, which results from a direct effect of viral genes on CD4 expression, soluble factors such as cytokines induced during HIV infection might explain the monocyte/macrophage CD4 dysregulation observed in acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
