Abstract:
:Altered cytokine transcription might play an important role in the pathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in humans. The infection of rhesus macaques with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) provides a relevant animal model for HIV infection. Therefore, we evaluated the cyokine transcription of phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated lymphocytes in the early phase after infection of four rhesus macaques with pathogenic SIV-mac239. To determine transcription of interleukin (IL)-2, interferon (IFN)-gamma, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10 we established a semiquantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). After inoculation with SIV, all monkeys became productively infected and developed an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) like disease. Infection was associated with a proliferation dysfunction of monkey lymphocytes in response to PHA. In addition, a decreasing overall cytokine transcription could be observed during the course of SIV infection. These findings demonstrate that an impairment of the lymphocyte function is associated with a reduced cytokine transcription in the early phase of an immunodeficiency virus infection. The observed differences of cytokine expression might contribute to the impaired immune response of SIV-infected monkeys and HIV-infected humans.
