Several highly potent and broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against HIV have recently been isolated from B cells of infected individuals. However, the effects of these antibodies on the persistent viral reservoirs in HIV-infected individuals receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) are unknown. We show that several HIV-specific monoclonal antibodies—in particular, PGT121, VRC01, and VRC03—potently inhibited entry into CD4+ T cells of HIV isolated from the latent viral reservoir of infected individuals whose plasma viremia was well controlled by ART. In addition, we demonstrate that HIV replication in autologous CD4+ T cells derived from infected individuals receiving ART was profoundly suppressed by three aforementioned and other HIV-specific monoclonal antibodies. These findings have implications for passive immunotherapy as an approach toward controlling plasma viral rebound in patients whose ART is withdrawn.The sustained suppression of HIV replication by antiretroviral therapy (ART) has dramatically improved the clinical outcome of infected individuals (1). In addition, research directed at potential pathways toward the development of an effective preventive HIV vaccine has provided insights into the nature of the immune response to HIV infection (2, 3). In this regard, recent advances in antibody-cloning technologies have led to the discovery of several highly potent and broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against HIV from B cells of HIV-infected individuals (4–7). Of interest, several studies have demonstrated that certain broadly neutralizing HIV-specific monoclonal antibodies can prevent acquisition of the virus, suppress viral replication, delay and/or prevent plasma viral rebound following treatment interruption in infected animals (8–14), and block cell-to-cell transmission of laboratory-adapted HIV in vitro (15). However, it is unclear what in vivo effects these antibodies might have on HIV in humans and, in particular, what effects they may have on the virus contained in the persistently infected CD4+ T cells of individuals whose plasma viremia is controlled by ART. These infected CD4+ T cells are considered to be the major obstacle to viral eradication (16–18) as well as a potential source of plasma viral rebound following discontinuation of ART in patients whose viremia had been well controlled in therapy (1). In this regard, considerable efforts in current HIV therapeutic research have been focused on developing strategies aimed at achieving sustained virologic remission in the absence of ART (1). This focus is especially important given that viral rebound and sustained HIV replication has been observed in almost all infected individuals whose plasma viremia had been well controlled while receiving ART and whose ART was subsequently withdrawn (19). Therefore, it is important to determine which, if any, of the many recently characterized HIV-specific monoclonal antibodies can inhibit viral entry into CD4+ T cells of HIV isolated from the latent viral reservoir as well as replication of reservoir virus in autologous CD4+ T cells derived from infected individuals whose plasma viremia was well-controlled on ART. Such knowledge is critical to establishing novel opportunities for passive immunotherapy to prevent plasma viral rebound following discontinuation of antiretroviral drugs. We conducted the present study to address this issue. 相似文献

We have used chemical protein synthesis and advanced physical methods to probe dynamics-function correlations for the HIV-1 protease, an enzyme that has received considerable attention as a target for the treatment of AIDS. Chemical synthesis was used to prepare a series of unique analogues of the HIV-1 protease in which the flexibility of the "flap" structures (residues 37-61 in each monomer of the homodimeric protein molecule) was systematically varied. These analogue enzymes were further studied by X-ray crystallography, NMR relaxation, and pulse-EPR methods, in conjunction with molecular dynamics simulations. We show that conformational isomerization in the flaps is correlated with structural reorganization of residues in the active site, and that it is preorganization of the active site that is a rate-limiting factor in catalysis. 相似文献

Lentiviruses such as HIV-1 encode envelope glycoproteins (Env) with long cytoplasmic tails (CTs) that include motifs mediating interactions with host-cell–trafficking factors. We demonstrated recently that Rab11-family interacting protein 1C (FIP1C) is required for CT-dependent incorporation of Env into HIV-1 particles. Here, we used viruses bearing targeted substitutions within CT to map the FIP1C-dependent incorporation of Env. We identified YW795 as a critical motif mediating cell-type–dependent Env incorporation. Disruption of YW795 reproduced the cell-type–dependent particle incorporation of Env that had previously been observed with large truncations of CT. A revertant virus bearing a single amino acid change near the C terminus of CT restored wild-type levels of Env incorporation, Gag–Env colocalization on the plasma membrane, and viral replication. These findings highlight the importance of YW795 in the cell-type–dependent incorporation of Env and support a model of HIV assembly in which FIP1C/RCP mediates Env trafficking to the particle assembly site.Lentiviruses such as HIV encode envelope glycoproteins (Envs) with long cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of 150 amino acids or more, whereas avian and murine retroviruses generally encode CTs of 20–30 residues. The reasons for this difference are not entirely clear, but may be attributable to interactions with host-trafficking pathways that define the specificity of Env incorporation into viral particles. A large number of tyrosine- and dileucine-based motifs are present in the HIV-1 Env CT, some of which have been shown to interact with factors involved in vesicular trafficking. The membrane-proximal Yxxϕ motif (Y712) has been well studied and serves as a docking site for the μ-subunit of the clathrin adaptor AP-2 (1, 2). Disruption of this motif enhances cell-surface Env concentration, yet somewhat paradoxically reduces Env incorporation into particles and particle infectivity (3–6). Disruption of YW802 has also been shown to reduce Env incorporation and infectivity (5, 7). The C-terminal dileucine LL855 motif interacts with the AP-1 (8) or AP-2 (9) clathrin adaptor proteins and plays a role in endocytosis and in determining the cell-surface levels of Env. We recently performed a systematic mutagenesis of tyrosine- and dileucine-based motifs in the Env CT that confirmed the importance of Y712 on cell-surface levels of Env (3). This study also illuminated an important region of the CT-spanning residues 795–803, in which disruption of YW or LL motifs had dramatic effects on viral replication.In an important advance to our understanding of the role of the Env CT, Murakami and Freed demonstrated that the incorporation of Env into viral particles was cell-type–dependent and that this incorporation in most T-cell lines and macrophages requires an intact long cytoplasmic tail (10). They demonstrated that Env incorporation in 293T cells did not require the long CT, nor was the CT absolutely required for incorporation in particles produced from HeLa or MT-4 cells. However, Env incorporation into particles produced from other T-cell lines and macrophages was severely impaired by CT truncation, and productive replication of virus bearing an Env with a truncated tail was possible only in MT-4 cells. This study strongly implicated host factors in the CT-dependent incorporation of Env.We recently reported that Rab11-FIP1C (FIP1C) (also known as Rab coupling protein or RCP) and Rab14 are required for Env incorporation and that the effect of FIP1C was dependent upon the Env CT (11). This suggested to us that the cell-type–dependent findings reported by Murakami and Freed (10) may be related to FIP1C-mediated transport of Env mediated through motifs on the Env CT. To test this hypothesis, we examined a panel of viruses bearing mutations of tyrosine- and dileucine-based motifs for their ability to redistribute FIP1C to the plasma membrane. We identified YW795 as a critical motif that is required for CT-dependent FIP1C redistribution out of the endosomal recycling compartment. Remarkably, the disruption of YW795 completely recreated the pattern of cell-type dependence on Env incorporation previously observed with CT truncation, and FIP1C depletion had no effect on the level of incorporation of this mutant Env. A downstream second-site revertant was derived that restored Env incorporation and dependence on FIP1C for particle incorporation, suggesting that YW795 and FIP1C mediate Env incorporation in a cell-type–specific manner. 相似文献

During the last phase of HIV viral production, nascent HIV virions acquire a fraction of the cellular lipid membrane to create the external lipid envelope, a process by which cellular proteins present on the surface of the infected cell can be incorporated along with Env trimers. Interestingly, several studies indicated that these incorporated host molecules could conserve their biological activity and consequently contribute to HIV pathogenesis either by enhancing the infectivity of HIV virions, their tissue tropism or by affecting immune cell functions. The following review will describe the main approaches used to characterize membrane bound host molecule incorporation into HIV virions, the proposed mechanisms involved, and the role of a non-exhaustive list of incorporated molecules. 相似文献

HIV elite controllers (ECs) are characterized by the spontaneous control of viral replication, and by metabolic and autophagic profiles which favor anti-HIV CD4 and CD8 T-cell responses. Extracellular acyl coenzyme A binding protein (ACBP) acts as a feedback inhibitor of autophagy. Herein, we assessed the circulating ACBP levels in ECs, compared to people living with HIV (PLWH) receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) or not. We found lower ACBP levels in ECs compared to ART-naïve or ART-treated PLWH (p < 0.01 for both comparisons), independently of age and sex. ACBP levels were similar in ECs and HIV-uninfected controls. The expression of the protective HLA alleles HLA-B*27, *57, or *58 did not influence ACBP levels in ECs. ACBP levels were not associated with CD4 or CD8 T-cell counts, CD4 loss over time, inflammatory cytokines, or anti-CMV IgG titers in ECs. In ART-treated PLWH, ACBP levels were correlated with interleukin (IL)-1β levels, but not with other inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-32, or TNF-α. In conclusion, ECs are characterized by low ACBP plasma levels compared to ART-naïve or ART-treated PLWH. As autophagy is key to anti-HIV CD4 and CD8 T-cell responses, the ACBP pathway constitutes an interesting target in HIV cure strategies. 相似文献

HIV type 1 (HIV-1) was shown to assemble either at the plasma membrane or in the membrane of late endosomes. Now, we report an essential role for human ubiquitin ligase POSH (Plenty of SH3s; hPOSH), a trans-Golgi network-associated protein, in the targeting of HIV-1 to the plasma membrane. Small inhibitory RNA-mediated silencing of hPOSH ablates virus secretion and Gag plasma membrane localization. Reintroduction of native, but not a RING finger mutant, hPOSH restores virus release and Gag plasma membrane localization in hPOSH-depleted cells. Furthermore, expression of the RING finger mutant hPOSH inhibits virus release and induces accumulation of intracellular Gag in normal cells. Together, our results identify a previously undescribed step in HIV biogenesis and suggest a direct function for hPOSH-mediated ubiquitination in protein sorting at the trans-Golgi network. Consequently, hPOSH may be a useful host target for therapeutic intervention. 相似文献

Despite the success of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), HIV persists in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) due to emerging drug resistance and insufficient drug accessibility. Furthermore, cART does not target latently-infected CD4+ T cells, which represent a major barrier to HIV eradication. The “shock and kill” therapeutic approach aims to reactivate provirus expression in latently-infected cells in the presence of cART and target virus-expressing cells for elimination. An attractive therapeutic prototype in LMICs would therefore be capable of simultaneously inhibiting viral replication and inducing latency reversal. Here we report that Gnidia sericocephala, which is used by traditional health practitioners in South Africa for HIV/AIDS management to supplement cART, contains at least four daphnane-type compounds (yuanhuacine A (1), yuanhuacine as part of a mixture (2), yuanhuajine (3), and gniditrin (4)) that inhibit viral replication and/or reverse HIV latency. For example, 1 and 2 inhibit HIV replication in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by >80% at 0.08 µg/mL, while 1 further inhibits a subtype C virus in PBMC with a half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) of 0.03 µM without cytotoxicity. Both 1 and 2 also reverse HIV latency in vitro consistent with protein kinase C activation but at 16.7-fold lower concentrations than the control prostratin. Both 1 and 2 also reverse latency in primary CD4+ T cells from cART-suppressed donors with HIV similar to prostratin but at 6.7-fold lower concentrations. These results highlight G. sericocephala and components 1 and 2 as anti-HIV agents for improving cART efficacy and supporting HIV cure efforts in resource-limited regions. 相似文献

Objectives
To assess the effects of chronic hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV infection on dyslipidaemia in a Hispanic population at high risk of insulin resistance.Methods
We compared serum lipids and C‐reactive protein (CRP) in 257 Hispanic adults including 47 HIV‐ mono‐infected, 43 HCV‐mono‐infected and 59 HIV/HCV‐co‐infected individuals as well as 108 healthy controls. We also assessed the effect of HCV on lipid alterations associated with antiretroviral therapy (ART), and the impact of HCV and HIV on the associations among insulin resistance, triglycerides and cholesterol.Results
HCV infection was associated with lower total and low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, but not high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol or triglycerides compared with healthy controls. HIV infection was associated with higher triglycerides and lower HDL, but not total or LDL cholesterol. HCV mitigated the elevation of triglycerides associated with ART. In healthy Hispanic adults, insulin resistance was significantly correlated with higher triglycerides, CRP and lower HDL. HIV infection nullified the association of insulin resistance with triglycerides and HDL, and the association of triglycerides with LDL. HCV infection nullified the association of insulin resistance with triglycerides, HDL and CRP.Conclusions
HCV co‐infection alters the profile of HIV‐associated dyslipidaemia. The clinical significance of these findings for cardiovascular complications in HIV merits further study. 相似文献19.
