A biological response modifier, PSK, inhibits human immunodeficiency virus infection in vitro 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

PSK, a biological response modifier (BRM), was studied to determine its anti-viral activity on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in vitro. Either a novel infection system using human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-carrying MT-4 cells or a coculture system using MOLT-4 cells and its virus-producing cells MOLT-4/HIVHTLV-IIIB which induces multinucleated giant cells very efficiently was used. PSK almost completely blocked the cytopathic effect such as giant cell formation and HIV-specific antigen expression both in MT-4 cells and MOLT-4 cells at a concentration of 0.4 and 0.8 mg/ml, respectively. Pretreatment of the virus with PSK may specifically interfere with early stages of HIV infection by modifying the viral receptor. 相似文献

A good correlation between fifty-percent inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of hybrid liposomes (HL) composed of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine and polyoxyethylene(n) dodecyl ether on the growth of MOLT-4/IIIB cells (MOLT-4 cells chronically infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)) and the membrane fluidity of HL was obtained. Furthermore, the huge enhancement of virus production was observed in the latently HIV-infected (J(22)-HL-60) cells after the treatment with HL. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor selectively inhibits activation of human B cells by Epstein-Barr virus 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
We have investigated the effect of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (rTNF-alpha) on human B cell activation and differentiation. Among several T cell-dependent and independent B cell stimulation systems tested (anti-mu, pokeweed mitogen, Epstein-Barr virus), only the activation by Epstein-Barr virus was inhibited by rTNF-alpha. rTNF-alpha inhibited in a dose-dependent manner both the proliferation and differentiation (Ig secretion) of Epstein-Barr virus-stimulated B cells when added at the beginning or within 48 hr of a 6 to 8-day culture period. Maximal suppression (80 to 95%) was found at rTNF-alpha concentrations of 10 to 50 ng/ml. Inhibition of B cell activation required the presence of significant numbers (25%) of plastic adherent macrophages within the B cell population. Suppression was not due to lysis of Epstein-Barr virus-infected B cells by rTNF-alpha-treated macrophages. As shown by double chamber experiments where macrophages and B cells were separated by a 0.45-micron membrane, macrophages elaborated factors in response to rTNF-alpha, which, alone or synergistically with rTNF-alpha, inhibited B cell activation. These factors were different from prostaglandin E2, interferon-alpha, and interleukin 1. We conclude that rTNF-alpha can dramatically modulate certain normal immune responses in vitro. 相似文献

The rate of multinucleated giant cell formation by the fusion of HIV chronically infected human T-cells (MOLT-4/HIV) and HIV uninfected MOLT-4 cells was examined under various pH conditions. The number of giant cells formed under the different pH conditions was quantitatively monitored by "MULTISIZER". The rate of giant cell formation was significantly less at the pH lower than 6 but not influenced at higher pH. Plaque assay under various pH conditions revealed that inhibition of giant-cell formation at lower pH was not due to the influence over the recognition between gp120 of HIV and CD4 molecules. 相似文献

The growth modulatory effects of a rat liver-derived growth inhibitor (LDGI), transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1), and recombinant tumor necrosis factor (rTNF-alpha) were examined in a variety of liver-derived and nonliver-derived normal and neoplastic cell culture systems. Normal rat liver epithelial (RLE) cells were highly sensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of LDGI (ID50 = 0.2 ng/ml) and TGF-beta 1 (ID50 = 0.25 ng/ml) but were less sensitive to rTNF-alpha (ID40 = 5000 Units/ml). Aflatoxin B1-transformed RLE cells showed sensitivity to the cytostatic effects of LDGI (ID50 = 1.5 ng/ml); however, these cells were completely resistant to the antiproliferative effects of TGF-beta 1 and rTNF-alpha. Clones isolated from these transformed cells, exhibited a wide range of sensitivities to LDGI but all of the clones were resistant to the growth inhibitory effects of both TGF-beta 1 and rTNF-alpha. Rat hepatoma Reuber cells were extremely sensitive to the antiproliferative effects of rTNF-alpha (ID50 = 10 Units/ml) but exhibited sensitivity to LDGI only at concentrations above 1.5 ng/ml and were resistant to the antiproliferative effects of TGF-beta 1. Rat hepatoma UVM 7777 cells and human hepatoma HepG2 cells, however, were insensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of all three factors. Among the nonliver-derived cells, human breast carcinoma (MCF-7) cells were extremely sensitive to rTNF-alpha (ID50 = 20 Units/ml, exhibited some sensitivity to LDGI (ID50 = 1 ng/ml), and were resistant to the antiproliferative effects of TGF-beta 1. In contrast, the rate of DNA synthesis is rat kidney fibroblasts and human foreskin fibroblasts was significantly stimulated in response to TGF-beta 1, LDGI, and rTNF-alpha. These data demonstrate that LDGI, TGF-beta 1, and rTNF-alpha exert positive and negative modulations of growth in different cell systems and that the growth regulatory effects of LDGI differ from those of TGF-beta 1 and rTNF-alpha in some cell types. 相似文献

In vitro anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity of polysaccharide from Rhizophora mucronata Poir. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A polysaccharide was extracted with 1% sodium carbonate from the bark of Rhizophora mucronata and its antiviral activities against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) were assessed by an in vitro cell culture system. The anti-HIV activity of the alkaline extract was mainly recovered in the 25-75% ethanol-precipitated fraction. Rhizophora mucronata polysaccharide (RMP) protected MT-4 cells from the HIV-induced cytopathogenicity and blocked the expression of HIV antigens. RMP completely inhibited the viral binding to the cell and the formation of syncytium upon cocultivation of MOLT-4/HIV-1IIIB cells and MOLT-4 cells. These results suggest that RMP inhibited early steps of the virus life cycle especially virus adsorption to the cell. 相似文献

Vertical transmission of HIV-1 can occur at three different stages: during gestation, delivery and breast feeding. To determine the role of cytokines in vertical transmission of HIV during gestation, we studied the secretion of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha and IL-6 from in vitro infected and Mock-infected placental macrophages (Hofbauer cells) in comparison to blood monocyte derived macrophages (MDM). Hofbauer cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) secreted lower levels of HIV stimulatory cytokines (6-8 ng/ml) in the supernatants than MDM (26 ng/ml, p<0.005). Cytokine levels in MDM decreased upon HIV infection to 7 ng/ml. IL-6 was the major cytokine produced after LPS stimulation by the two cell populations (p<0.005), being MDM the major cytokine producer. In vitro infection studies with a M-tropic virus (HIV-BaL) indicated that MDM were 10x more susceptible to HIV than placental macrophages (p=0.001). Our results indicate that although macrophages from term placenta secrete lower amount of HIV stimulatory cytokines than MDM, there was no correlation between the levels of cytokines and HIV production by both cells. 相似文献

Background
During sexual transmission of HIV in women, the virus breaches the multi-layered CD4 negative stratified squamous epithelial barrier of the vagina, to infect the sub-epithelial CD4 positive immune cells. However the mechanisms by which HIV gains entry into the sub-epithelial zone is hitherto unknown. We have previously reported human mannose receptor (hMR) as a CD4 independent receptor playing a role in HIV transmission on human spermatozoa. The current study was undertaken to investigate the expression of hMR in vaginal epithelial cells, its HIV gp120 binding potential, affinity constants and the induction of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) downstream of HIV gp120 binding to hMR.Principal Findings
Human vaginal epithelial cells and the immortalized vaginal epithelial cell line Vk2/E6E7 were used in this study. hMR mRNA and protein were expressed in vaginal epithelial cells and cell line, with a molecular weight of 155 kDa. HIV gp120 bound to vaginal proteins with high affinity, (Kd = 1.2±0.2 nM for vaginal cells, 1.4±0.2 nM for cell line) and the hMR antagonist mannan dose dependently inhibited this binding. Both HIV gp120 binding and hMR exhibited identical patterns of localization in the epithelial cells by immunofluorescence. HIV gp120 bound to immunopurified hMR and affinity constants were 2.9±0.4 nM and 3.2±0.6 nM for vaginal cells and Vk2/E6E7 cell line respectively. HIV gp120 induced an increase in MMP-9 mRNA expression and activity by zymography, which could be inhibited by an anti-hMR antibody.Conclusion
hMR expressed by vaginal epithelial cells has high affinity for HIV gp120 and this binding induces production of MMPs. We propose that the induction of MMPs in response to HIV gp120 may lead to degradation of tight junction proteins and the extracellular matrix proteins in the vaginal epithelium and basement membrane, leading to weakening of the epithelial barrier; thereby facilitating transport of HIV across the vaginal epithelium. 相似文献10.
Relative inefficiency of soluble recombinant CD4 for inhibition of infection by monocyte-tropic HIV in monocytes and T cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
P J Gomatos N M Stamatos H E Gendelman A Fowler D L Hoover D C Kalter D S Burke E C Tramont M S Meltzer 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1990,144(11):4183-4188
Macrophages are major viral reservoirs in the brain, lungs, and lymph nodes of HIV-infected patients. But not all HIV isolates infect macrophages. The molecular basis for this restrictive target cell tropism and the mechanisms by which HIV infects macrophages are not well understood: virus uptake by CD4-dependent and -independent pathways have both been proposed. Soluble rCD4 (sCD4) binds with high affinity to gp 120, the envelope glycoprotein of HIV, and at relatively low concentrations (less than 1 microgram/ml) completely inhibits infection of many HIV strains in T cells or T cell lines. HTLV-IIIB infection of the H9 T cell line was completely inhibited by prior treatment of virus with 10 micrograms/ml sCD4: no p24 Ag or HIV-induced T cell syncytia were detected in cultures of H9 cells exposed to 1 x 10(4) TCID50 HTLV-IIIB in the presence of sCD4. Under identical conditions and at a 100-fold lower viral inoculum, 10 micrograms/ml sCD4 had little or no effect on infection of monocytes by any of six different HIV isolates by three different criteria: p24 Ag release, virus-induced cytopathic effects, and the frequency of infected cells that express HIV-specific mRNA. At 10- to 100-fold higher concentrations of sCD4, however, infection was completely inhibited. Monoclonal anti-CD4 also prevented infection of these same viral isolates in monocytes. The relative inefficiency of sCD4 for inhibition of HIV infection in monocytes was a property of the virion, not the target cell: HIV isolates that infect both monocytes and T cells required similarly high levels of sCD4 (100 to 200 micrograms/ml) for inhibition of infection. These data suggest that the gp120 of progeny HIV derived from macrophages interacts with sCD4 differently than that of virions derived from T cells. For both variants of HIV, however, the predominant mechanism of virus entry for infection is CD4-dependent. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) completely reverses the activity of azidothymidine (AZT) against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in MOLT-4 cell cultures. The 50% effective concentration of AZT, required to protect MOLT-4 cells against the cytopathic effect of HIV-1, increased from 5.8 nM in the absence of TNF-alpha to greater than 125 microM in the presence of TNF-alpha (100 U/ml). TNF-alpha also antagonized the anti-HIV-1 activity of dideoxycytidine but did not markedly affect the anti-HIV-1 activity of dextran sulfate. The intracellular phosphorylation pattern of AZT was not changed upon the presence of TNF-alpha. 相似文献

Binding of recombinant HIV coat protein gp120 to human monocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Inasmuch as the exact level of CD4 Ag expression on macrophages is controversial and because HIV may interact with macrophages in a manner different from that on T cells, we analyzed the binding of gp120 to freshly isolated and cultured monocytes. rgp120 was iodinated using the lactoperoxidase method to a sp. act. of 600 Ci/mmol. Highly purified monocytes (greater than 90%) were isolated from the leukapheresed blood of normal volunteers by Ficoll-Hypaque sedimentation followed by countercurrent centrifugal elutriation and cultured 7 days in DMEM supplemented with 1000 U/ml macrophage CSF in 10% human serum. Whereas MOLT/4 cells consistently bound freshly prepared 125I-rgp120 at 80% specificity with 5100 +/- 700 mol/cell, MCSF cultured monocytes bound rgp120 at only 0 to 20% specificity and 420 +/- 200 mol/cell. Most of the radioactivity bound by these cells could not be blocked by the addition of unlabeled rgp120. In contrast, the U937 myeloid cell line bound rgp120 with 50% specificity and about 2500 mol/cell. Whereas the antibody OKT4a (anti-CD4) blocked 80% of the binding on MOLT/4 cells and 50% on U937 cells, binding was only inhibited on the average of 6% on cultured monocytes. When soluble rCD4 was used as an inhibitor, binding to MOLT/4 cells was blocked by 80%. In contrast, binding to cultured monocytes was inhibited by 28%. HIV infectivity was blocked by similar concentrations of OKT4a. These observations suggest that although most binding of gp120 to cultured monocytes is not to the CD4 determinant, several hundred molecules do bind to a CD4-like molecule which promotes virus entry and replication. 相似文献

4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is the major aldehydic product resulting from lipid peroxidation and has been implicated as involved in several pathological conditions. In our continuing studies on the role of membranes and lipid peroxidation in the induction of apoptosis, we investigated the effect of HNE on cultured human malignant immune system cells. Two cell lines were utilized; MOLT-4, a human T-cell leukemia cell line, and Reh, a human B-cell lymphoma cell line. A 10 min treatment with 0.01 mM HNE resulted in the apoptotic death, as determined by flow cytometric and morphological analyses, of both cell lines within 24 h. MOLT-4 cells exhibited the manifestations of impending apoptotic death much sooner than did Reh cells, indicating that MOLT-4 cells were more sensitive or not as efficient at detoxifying HNE than were Reh cells. These results suggest that peroxidative damage to cellular membranes resulting in the production of HNE may be a trigger for the induction of apoptosis in immune system cells. 相似文献

The effect of host cell factors on infectivity of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) was studied by infecting a monoblastoid cell line (U937) or a T-cell line (MOLT-4) with a highly infective single clone of HIV-1 and comparing the infectivity of the produced viruses to different cell lines. Chronically infected U937 cells consistently produced viruses with minimal infectivity. This phenotypic change was host-dependent as the back-passage of the U937-produced low infective viruses into MOLT-4 cells resulted in regaining their original high infectivity. Southern and Northern blot analyses of the HIV-1 grown in U937 cells did not reveal any genomic difference between it and the virus grown it MOLT-4 cells. The radioimmunoprecipitation analysis of viral proteins showed that the HIV-1-infected U937 cells had a different pattern of envelope glycoproteins and core proteins, which well correlated with the low infectivity of the produced viruses. This experimental system using MOLT-4 and U937 cell lines would be useful to further explore host cell factor(s) which play an important role in the regulation of HIV-1 infectivity. 相似文献

Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) and human T-cell leukemia virus type-I (HTLV-I) have a similar tropism for target cell types, especially for CD4+ T cells. In this study, we provide evidence that receptors of these two viruses exist independently on the target cell. We established an HTLV-I-producing CD8+ T cell line (ILT-8M2) with a remarkable cell fusion capacity. When cocultured with MOLT-4 cells, ILT-8M2 cells induced giant syncytia more efficiently than any other tested HTLV-I-producer cell lines. In contrast to other HTLV-I-producers, ILT-8M2 cells were minimally susceptible to cytopathic effects of HIV-1 due to very low expression of CD4, although they were able to be persistently infected by HIV-1. The indicator MOLT-4 cells are known to respond well to HIV-1-induced cell fusion, but they lose this ability if they become persistently infected with HIV-1 because of the reduction of CD4 receptor expression. ILT-8M2 was, however, still capable of inducing syncytia with the MOLT-4 cells persistently infected by HIV-1 (MOLT-4/IIIB). This syncytium formation was dependent on the HTLV-I-envelope, as it was inhibited by HTLV-I-positive human sera or a monoclonal antibody to HTLV-I gp46 but not by monoclonal antibodies to HIV-1 gp120 or CD4. Moreover, ILT-8M2 cells persistently infected by HIV-1 (ILT-8M2/IIIB) induced both HTLV-I- and HIV-1-mediated syncytia with uninfected MOLT-4 cells. These results suggest that HTLV-I induces cell fusion utilizing receptors on the target cells independent of HIV-1-receptors. 相似文献

The influence of recombinant (r) human tumor necrosis factor alpha (rTNF-alpha), r human interleukin 1 beta (rIL-1 beta), and r human interferon gamma (rIFN-gamma) on the production of interleukin 6 (IL-6) by human endothelial cells (HEC) was investigated. The addition of 1-100 U/ml of either rTNF-alpha or rIL-1 beta to cultures of HEC monolayers caused a dose-related increase in IL-6 production as detected after 24 hr of incubation. In contrast to rIL-1 beta and rTNF-alpha, the use of up to 1000 U/ml of rIFN-gamma caused only a moderate increase in IL-6 production. However, significantly greater quantities of IL-6 were produced by HEC monolayers subjected to 1000 U/ml of rIFN-gamma in combination with 1-100 U/ml of rTNF-alpha. Furthermore, the addition of graded concentrations of human transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) to cultures resulted in a dose-related inhibition of rIL-1 beta- and rTNF-alpha-induced IL-6 production by HEC. The results demonstrate that rIL-1 beta and rTNF-alpha share the ability to stimulate HEC for production of IL-6 and indicate that TGF-beta may act as an immunosuppressive agent, at least partially, through its ability to inhibit the action of TNF-alpha and IL-1 on endothelial cells. 相似文献

Histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) is a plasma protein implicated in the innate immune system. In recent studies, we showed that either HRG, or the Arg23-Lys66 glycopeptide derived from HRG, in concert with concanavalin A (Con A), promotes a morphological change and adhesion of the human leukemic T-cell line MOLT-4 to culture dishes, and that cell surface glycosaminoglycan or Fcγ receptors do not participate in this cellular event. In the present study, we identified the α-subunit of ATP synthase as one of the HRG-binding proteins on the surface of T-cells by HRG-derived glycopeptide affinity chromatography and by a peptide mass finger printing method. HRG specifically interacted with mitochondrial ATP synthase with a dissociation constant of 66 nM. The presence of α- and β-subunits of ATP synthase on the plasma membrane of MOLT-4 cell was demonstrated by immunofluorescent staining and FACS analysis. The HRG/Con A-induced morphological changes of MOLT-4 cells were specifically inhibited by a monoclonal antibody against the β-subunit of ATP synthase. These results strongly suggest that the cell surface ATP synthase functions as a binding protein for HRG on MOLT-4 cells, which is required for the morphological changes observed in MOLT-4 cells following treatment with HRG/Con A. 相似文献
