During HIV-1 infection most blood dendritic cells are not productively infected and can induce allogeneic CD4+ T cells clonal expansion

Abstract: SUMMARYWe have considered the possibility that antigen-presenting cells of the dendritic celi lineage may be iniected in vivo and spread HiV-1 al the time dendritic cells initiate the clonal expansion of antigenspecific T cells. Dendritic ceils were isolated from 25 HIV-1-infected subjects (CDC stages II IV). Fewer dendritic eells were recovered from most infected subjects. Reduced numbers of total non-T cells were also found in these patients, so that preferential toss of dendritic cells did not occur.

“…6 Similarly, HIV-infected DCs were poor stimulators of allogeneic T cells. 5 Our results do not exclude the possibility that direct infection plays a role in vivo; however, the percentage of HIV-infected DCs in vivo is always very low, 36,37 making it highly unlikely that HIV infection of DCs could explain the extent of defective APC function in HIV-infected donors. Our results thus provide an alternative mechanism, in which defective APC function arises from CD4 ϩ T-cell dysregulation, without a requirement of infection of the affected APCs.…”

“…Highly purified populations of myeloid and plasmacytoid DCs from blood of untreated patients contained HIV-1 provirus (25), whereas no proviral DNA or viral particles were found in peripheral blood DCs from HIV-1-infected individuals treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (26). In vivo, after seroconversion, when anti-HIV-IgGs appeared, productively infected DCs are rarely detected (27).…”

“…97,98 This decreased expression of HIV receptor and coreceptors has been implicated in less productive HIV replication in DCs as compared with CD4 + T cells. 99 Apart from these HIV receptor and coreceptor, DCs also possess C-type lectin receptors (CLRs). One such CLR is DC-SIGN, which is able to interact with HIV in vivo and are thus suggested to play a key role in HIV dissemination by DC in vivo.…”
