|
65 |
8877133
|
The effect of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IL-15 on in vitro HIV-1 replication was investigated.
|
66 |
8877133
|
IL-12 and IL-15 at doses up to 10 ng/ml had little effect on basal HIV-1 p24 antigen production by chronically HIV-infected T (ACH-2) and monocytic (U1) cell lines.
|
67 |
8877133
|
For ACH-2 cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 50 ng/ml), IL-12 and IL-15 significantly increased p24 antigen production by 20 and 30%, respectively (n = 6).
|
68 |
8877133
|
In contrast, IL-12 and IL-15 (10 ng/ml) treatment of PMA-stimulated U1 cells decreased p24 antigen production by 16 and 15%, respectively (n = 6).
|
69 |
8877133
|
We next studied the effect of IL-12 and IL-15 on HIV-infected peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
|
70 |
8877133
|
In 10 HIV-seropositive patients' PBMCs cocultured with mitogen-activated HIV-seronegative donor cells, two patterns of p24 antigen production were observed in response to IL-2: low (p24 antigen production < 10(3) pg/ml; n = 8) and high (p24 antigen production > 10(3) pg/ml; n = 2) response.
|
71 |
8877133
|
For the low-response pattern, IL-12 and IL-15 increased viral replication by 97-fold and 100-fold, respectively (P = 0.05 and 0.004, respectively).
|
72 |
8877133
|
For the high-response pattern, both IL-12 and IL-15 suppressed HIV replication.
|
73 |
8877133
|
The effect of IL-2, IL-12, and IL-15 on acute in vitro infection by HIV-1JRCSF was also examined.
|
74 |
8877133
|
IL-12 did not increase p24 antigen production above basal levels while IL-2 and IL-15 significantly enhanced p24 antigen production (by approximately 2-fold).
|
75 |
8877133
|
In conclusion, IL-12 and IL-15 may have differential effects on latent and acute HIV infection, and their ability to enhance HIV production may depend on cell activation.

To ensure optimal exposure of the immunogen to the antigen-presenting cells (APCs), the vaccine was given intradermally together with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF).
|
123 |
12487807

Proliferating and HIV-infected CD4(+) memory T cells were more frequently detected in conjugates of LC and autologous CD4(+) T cells, suggesting that T cells become activated and preferentially get infected through cluster formation with infected LC, rather than getting infected with free virus produced by single HIV-infected LC or T cells. p24(+) Memory CD4(+) T cells proliferated well in the absence of superantigen; by contrast, p24(+) T cells did not divide or divided only once in the presence of staphylococcal enterotoxin B, suggesting that virus production was rapid and induced apoptosis in these cells before significant proliferation could occur.

Moreover, p24/PLA nanoparticles elicited strong CTL responses and a Th1-biased cytokine release (IFNgamma, IL-2) in mice. p24 protein seemed to generate a more Th1-oriented response when administered coated onto the surface of PLA nanoparticles than adjuvanted with Freund's adjuvant.
|
149 |
16563545
|
Most importantly, the ability of p24/PLA particles to induce Th1 responses was also confirmed in the macaque model, since high levels of IFNgamma-producing CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells could be detected by the ELISPOT assay.

As IFN-gamma production correlates to cytotoxic function, the CD8+ T-lymphocyte IFN-gamma response to HIV p24 peptides was compared in HIV(ES) and HIV-infected (HIV+) individuals.
|
156 |
16942489
|
Almost 40% of the HIV(ES) had a CD8+ IFN-gamma+ response that was five times lower in magnitude than that of the HIV+ group.
|
157 |
16942489
|
In the HIV+ group, low peripheral CD4+ counts negatively influenced the number of CD8+ cells producing IFN-gamma, which may undermine the ability to control HIV.
|
158 |
16942489
|
Overall, many of the HIV(ES) women possess a HIV-1 p24-specific CD8+ IFN-gamma response, providing evidence to the specificity needed for an effective HIV vaccine.

DEC-205 receptor on dendritic cells mediates presentation of HIV gag protein to CD8+ T cells in a spectrum of human MHC I haplotypes.
|
165 |
17229838
|
Optimal HIV vaccines should elicit CD8+ T cells specific for HIV proteins presented on MHC class I products, because these T cells contribute to host resistance to viruses.
|
166 |
17229838
|
To extend this finding to humans, we introduced the HIV p24 gag protein into a mAb that targets DEC-205/CD205, an endocytic receptor of DCs.
|
167 |
17229838
|
We then assessed cross-presentation, which is the processing of nonreplicating internalized antigen onto MHC class I for recognition by CD8+ T cells.
|
168 |
17229838
|
Low doses of alphaDEC-gag, but not control Ig-gag, stimulated proliferation and IFN-gamma production by CD8+ T cells isolated from the blood of HIV-infected donors. alphaCD205 fusion mAb was more effective for cross-presentation than alphaCD209/DC-SIGN, another abundant DC uptake receptor.
|
169 |
17229838
