HIV Envelope gp120 Alters T Cell Receptor Mobilization in the Immunological Synapse of Uninfected CD4 T Cells and Augments T Cell Activation. J Virol 2016; 90:10513-10526.

Abstract
HIV is transmitted most efficiently from cell to cell, and productive infection occurs mainly in activated CD4 T cells. It is postulated that HIV exploits immunological synapses formed between CD4 T cells and antigen-presenting cells to facilitate the targeting and infection of activated CD4 T cells. This study sought to evaluate how the presence of the HIV envelope (Env) in the CD4 T cell immunological synapse affects synapse formation and intracellular signaling to impact the downstream T cell activation events. CD4 T cells were applied to supported lipid bilayers that were reconstituted with HIV Env gp120, anti-T cell receptor (anti-TCR) monoclonal antibody, and ICAM-1 to represent the surface of HIV Env-bearing antigen-presenting cells. The results showed that the HIV Env did not disrupt immunological synapse formation. Instead, the HIV Env accumulated with TCR at the center of the synapse, altered the kinetics of TCR recruitment to the synapse and affected synapse morphology over time. The HIV Env also prolonged Lck phosphorylation at the synapse and enhanced TCR-induced CD69 upregulation, interleukin-2 secretion, and proliferation to promote virus infection. These results suggest that HIV uses the immunological synapse as a conduit not only for selective virus transmission to activated CD4 T cells but also for boosting the T cell activation state, thereby increasing its likelihood of undergoing productive replication in targeted CD4 T cells. IMPORTANCE There are about two million new HIV infections every year. A better understanding of how HIV is transmitted to susceptible cells is critical to devise effective strategies to prevent HIV infection. Activated CD4 T cells are preferentially infected by HIV, although how this is accomplished is not fully understood. This study examined whether HIV co-opts the normal T cell activation process through the so-called immunological synapse. We found that the HIV envelope is recruited to the center of the immunological synapse together with the T cell receptor and enhances the T cell receptor-induced activation of CD4 T cells. Heightened cellular activation promotes the capacity of CD4 T cells to support productive HIV replication. This study provides evidence of the exploitation of the normal immunological synapse and T cell activation process by HIV to boost the activation state of targeted CD4 T cells and promote the infection of these cells.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) exploits a diverse array of host cell functions in order to replicate. This is mediated through a network of virus-host interactions. A variety of recent studies have catalogued this information. In particular the HIV-1, Human Protein Interaction Database (HHPID) has provided a unique depth of protein interaction detail. However, as a map of HIV-1 infection, the HHPID is problematic, as it contains curation error and redundancy; in addition, it is based on a heterogeneous set of experimental methods. Based on identifying shared patterns of HIV-host interaction, we have developed a novel methodology to delimit the core set of host-cellular functions and their associated perturbation from the HHPID. Initially, using biclustering, we identify 279 significant sets of host proteins that undergo the same types of interaction. The functional cohesiveness of these protein sets was validated using a human protein-protein interaction network, gene ontology annotation and sequence similarity. Next, using a distance measure, we group host protein sets and identify 37 distinct higher-level subsystems. We further demonstrate the biological significance of these subsystems by cross-referencing with global siRNA screens that have been used to detect host factors necessary for HIV-1 replication, and investigate the seemingly small intersect between these data sets. Our results highlight significant host-cell subsystems that are perturbed during the course of HIV-1 infection. Moreover, we characterise the patterns of interaction that contribute to these perturbations. Thus, our work disentangles the complex set of HIV-1-host protein interactions in the HHPID, reconciles these with siRNA screens and provides an accessible and interpretable map of infection.

Abstract
In addition to its positive signaling function in the antigen presentation process, CD4 acts as the primary receptor for HIV-1. Contact between CD4 and the viral envelope leads to virus entry, but can also trigger apoptosis of uninfected CD4+ T-cells through a mechanism that is poorly understood. We show that Siva-1, a death domain-containing proapoptotic protein, associates with the cytoplasmic domain of CD4. This interaction is mediated by the cysteine-rich region found in the C-terminal part of the Siva-1 protein. Expression of Siva-1 specifically increases the susceptibility of both T-cell lines and unstimulated human primary CD4+ T-lymphocytes to CD4-mediated apoptosis triggered by the HIV-1 envelope, and results in activation of a caspase-dependent mitochondrial pathway. The same susceptibility is observed in T-cells expressing a truncated form of CD4 that is able to recruit Siva-1 but fails to associate with p56Lck, indicating that Siva-1 participates in a pathway independent of the p56Lck kinase activity. Altogether, these results suggest that Siva-1 might participate in the CD4-initiated signaling apoptotic pathway induced by the HIV-1 envelope in T-lymphoid cells.

Abstract
Resting CD4(+) T cells containing integrated HIV provirus constitute one of the long-lived cellular reservoirs of HIV in vivo. This cellular reservoir of HIV had been thought to be quiescent with regard to virus replication based on the premise that HIV production in T cells is inexorably linked to cellular activation as determined by classical activation markers. The transition of T cells within this HIV reservoir from a resting state to an activated HIV-producing state is believed to be associated with a shorten life span due to susceptibility to activation-associated apoptosis. Evidence is mounting, however, that HIV production may occur in T cells that have not undergone classic T cell activation. HIV encodes several proteins, including envelope and Nef, which trigger a variety of signaling pathways associated with cellular activation, thereby facilitating HIV replication in nondividing cells. The present study demonstrates that production of infectious virus from resting CD4(+) T cells isolated from HIV-infected individuals can be induced following exposure of these cells to HIV-1 recombinant (oligomeric gp140) envelope protein. Envelope-mediated induction of HIV expression occurs in the presence of reverse transcriptase inhibitors and is not associated with markers of classic T cell activation, proliferation, or apoptosis. The ability of HIV envelope to induce virus replication in HIV-infected resting CD4(+) T cells without triggering apoptosis provides a mechanism for the virus itself to directly participate in the maintenance of HIV production from this cellular reservoir.

Abstract
The recognition that CD8(+) T-cell mediated Th1 immune responses were necessary to produce immunity to intracellular and transformed self pathogens led to intense interest in the delivery of nucleic acids, DNA, or RNA encoding candidate antigens, as vaccines. Antigen presenting cells (APC) encounter most protein and vaccine immunogens as extracellular proteins and, thus, present them on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules leading to the activation of CD4(+) T cells. Protein antigens encoded by nucleic acids delivered to dendritic cell (DC) are produced inside the cell and, thus, can stimulate MHC class I mediated activation of CD8(+) T-cell immune responses. Unfortunately, DCs are not readily transfected with DNA (Akbari et al., 1999) resulting in the requirement for high concentrations of DNA and repeated immunizations to achieved immune responses. RNA, on the other hand, is readily taken up and expressed by DC, making it an alternative vaccine candidate. In this article, we will discuss immune responses developed, interactions between APC and RNA that activate and dictate DC activation, and preliminary studies using RNA in vivo and in vitro to develop protective immunity.

Abstract
An important unresolved issue of AIDS pathogenesis is the mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-induced CD4(+) T-lymphocyte destruction. We show here that HIV type 1 (HIV-1) exerts a profound cytopathic effect upon peripheral blood CD4(+) T lymphocytes that resembles necrosis rather than apoptosis. Necrotic cytopathology was found with both laboratory-adapted strains and primary isolates of HIV-1. We carefully investigated the role of env, which has been previously implicated in HIV cytopathicity. HIV-1 stocks with equivalent infectivity were prepared from constructs with either an intact or mutated env coding region and pseudotyped with the glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G) so that the HIV envelope was not rate-limiting for infection. Infected Jurkat T cells died whether or not env was intact; however, the expression of env accelerated death significantly. The accelerated death was blocked by protease inhibitors, indicating that it was due to reinfection by newly produced virus in env(+) cultures. Accordingly, we found no disparity in kinetics in CD4(lo) Jurkat cells. In highly infected peripheral blood T cells, profound necrosis occurred equivalently with both env(+) and env(-) stocks of HIV-1. We also found that HIV-1 cytopathicity was undiminished by the absence of nef. However, viral stocks made by complementation or packaging of HIV-1 genomes with the natural protein-coding sequences replaced by the green fluorescent protein were highly infectious but not cytopathic. Thus, env can accelerate cell death chiefly as an entry function, but one or more viral functions other than env or nef is essential for necrosis of CD4(+) T cells induced by HIV-1.

Abstract
During the course of HIV-1 infection, free virus, infected cells, and free HIV-1 proteins circulate within the host, exposing the host endothelium to these viral factors. We have previously presented evidence showing that soluble HIV-1 gp120 protein interacts with chemokine receptors on primary human endothelium and (through those interactions) induces apoptosis as well as other intracellular effects. The current study examines the effect of exposure of vascular endothelium to gp120 IIIb expressed on the surface of Jurkat cells and in the context of viral particles. Apoptosis was observed in human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) cultures exposed to gp160-transfected Jurkat cells as well as to virion particles with gp120 on their surface. Additional experiments show that this apoptotic effect was caused by gp120 protein acting through chemokine receptors on the HUVEC surface, primarily the CXCR4 receptor. At higher concentrations of gp120, this lymphotrophic variant, which has been shown to interact predominantly with CXCR4, seems to interact with and induce apoptosis through the CCR5 receptor. Finally, this apoptotic effect in HUVEC cultures occurs at low levels of the inducing agent, gp120, on cell membranes or on virion particles. These results demonstrate that HIV-1 gp120 is capable of interacting with and killing vascular endothelial cells in multiple in vivo contexts.

Abstract
We previously showed that HIV-1 gp120-induced apoptosis in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cell cultures (HUVEC), through CCR5 and CXCR4. Here, we have found that agonists of protein kinase C (PKC), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and short exposure to low concentrations of phorbol esters were found to block gp120-induced apoptosis in HUVEC cultures. PKC antagonists, sphingosine, H7, and extended exposure of cultures to high concentrations of phorbol esters were also found to block gp120-induced apoptosis in HUVEC cultures. A significant increase in the total amount of cellular PKC enzymatic activity was observed on exposure of HUVEC to gp120. No increase in total PKC activity was observed on exposure of HUVECs to the natural ligands SDF-1alpha, or regulated-on-activation normal T-expressed and secreted (RANTES) cells, and gp120-induced PKC induction was found to be totally blocked by CXCR4 antibodies and partially blocked by the caspase 3 inhibitor, DEVD-CHO. Alternatively, CXCR4 antibodies and DEVD-CHO totally blocked apoptosis. Finally, gp120-induced effects were found to be insensitive to pertussis toxin. Accumulated evidence suggests PKC involvement at multiple points in the gp120-induced apoptotic pathway; also suggests involvement of the CXCR4 receptor internalization pathway, and potentially suggests different downstream effects of gp120-receptor interactions and natural ligand-receptor interactions.

Abstract
Human peripheral blood T lymphocytes are transformed in vitro to continuous proliferation by Herpesvirus saimiri subgroup C strains. It has been previously shown that H. saimiri-transformed human T cell lines are a permissive system for HIV-1 and 2 replication and are highly susceptible to infection by HIV-1 and 2. Two open reading frames of H. saimiri, StpC and Tip, are required for T cell transformation and are unique to this herpesvirus. The successful transduction of human T cells with retroviral vectors expressing H. saimiri proteins StpC and Tip has allowed us to extend the previously mentioned observations and investigate the role of StpC and Tip in replication of HIV-1 T-tropic strains (IIIB, MN, and RF) in human T cell lines. StpC expression in Molt4 dramatically enhanced HIV-1 replication as measured by Tat protein expression, syncytia formation, and accumulation of reverse transcriptase activity. In contrast, Tip expression in Molt4 cells inhibited HIV-1 replication and cytopathic effects relative to Molt4 cells transduced with the empty vector alone. The StpC-induced phenotype dominated in Molt4 cells transduced to express both StpC and Tip, suggesting that StpC is responsible for facilitating HIV-1 replication in H. saimiri-transformed T cells. Colony-forming ability of Tip-expressing Molt4 cells following HIV-1 infection was greatly enhanced over Molt4 cells expressing either StpC or no H. saimiri proteins at all. HIV-1 proviral DNA could be detected by PCR in surviving Molt4 cells expressing StpC or Tip, indicating that a persistent infection was established. A better understanding of the effects of Tip and StpC proteins on the biology of human hemopoietic stem cells may lead to novel therapeutic interventions for the treatment of AIDS.

Abstract
Abstract
Nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases and associated substrates play a pivotal role in Ag receptor stimulation of resting cells and in the initiation of activation-induced cell death (AICD) of preactivated T cells. CD4-associated p56lck has been implicated not only in the activation of primary T cells, but also in the inhibition of T cell responses. We have previously shown that CD4+ T cell clones can be rescued from AICD when surface CD4 is engaged before the TCR stimulus. In this study, we show that prevention of AICD is associated with a CD4-dependent inhibition of TCR-triggered tyrosine phosphorylation of the Src homology 2 domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kDa (SLP-76) and Vav. We provide evidence for a SLP-76 interaction with Src homology 3 domains of p56lck and identify amino acids 185–194 of SLP-76 as relevant docking site. In view of the multiple functions of p56lck and SLP-76/Vav in the initiation of TCR/CD3/CD4 signaling, we propose a model for the CD4-dependent inhibition of TCR signaling and AICD of preactivated T cells. Our data suggest that preformed activation complexes of adapter proteins and enzymes in the vicinity of the CD4/p56lck complex are no longer available for the TCR signal when CD4 receptors are engaged before TCR stimulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The envelope glycoprotein complex (gp120/gp41)n of HIV-1 is one of the viral products responsible for increased apoptosis in HIV infection. Here the role of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in HIV-1 envelope protein-induced apoptosis was investigated. METHODS Apoptosis occurring in cocultures of chronically HIV-1 IIIB-infected cells with CD4 target cells expressing the CXCR4 receptor was quantified by terminal deoxinucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) or propidium iodide staining followed by fluorescent antibody cell sorting, which allows the evaluation of single-cell killing. Moreover global (single cell- and syncytium-associated) apoptosis was quantified by a new radioactive TUNEL-derived assay. RESULTS By using these different techniques it was shown that single and syncytium-forming CD4 T cells die by apoptosis upon contact with envelope protein expressing cells independently of viral replication. Moreover, both the CXCR4 agonist SDF-1alpha, and the antagonist AMD3100, showed inhibitory effects on HIV-1 envelope protein-induced apoptosis in the CD4 T-cell subset of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and CD4 cell lines. CXCR4 signalling-induced by HIV-1 envelope proteins in CD4 T cells was not detected. Furthermore, it was shown that envelope protein-induced apoptosis can occur after treating target cells with the Gi-protein inhibitor pertussis toxin. CONCLUSIONS Evidence is provided for a role of CXCR4 in the mechanisms of HIV envelope protein-induced pathogenesis, contributing to selective CD4 cell killing. The results suggest that CXCR4 is involved in HIV-1-induced apoptosis; however, this role does not appear to involve G-protein-mediated CXCR4 signalling.

Abstract
Abstract
Stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1), a C-X-C family chemokine, is a potent T lymphocyte chemoattractant. We investigated the effects of T cell activation on the chemotactic response to SDF-1. Anti-CD3 Ab stimulation of either Jurkat T cells or murine peripheral CD4+ T lymphocytes produced a dramatic inhibition of SDF-1-induced chemotaxis. In contrast, the SDF-1 responses of Jurkat clones with deficiencies in key TCR signaling components (Lck, CD45, and TCR-β), were only marginally reduced by anti-CD3 stimulation. Similar to PMA treatment, which abolished both CXCR4 receptor expression and the chemotactic response of Jurkat cells to SDF-1, anti-CD3 Ab treatment reduced cell surface expression of CXCR4 to 65% of the control value, an effect that was blocked by protein kinase C inhibitors. Our data suggest that initial T cell activation events inhibit the response of Jurkat T cells to CXCR4 stimulation. In contrast, SDF-1 treatment resulted in a reduction of tyrosine phosphorylation of the TCR downstream effectors, ZAP-70, SLP-76, and LAT (linker for activation of T cells), suggesting that this chemokine potentially regulates the threshold for T cell activation.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies directed toward the complementarity determining region (CDR)3-like loop of the aminoterminal domain of CD4 have been shown to inhibit the replication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in CD4 positive T cells. The mechanism of action of these antibodies is not yet elucidated, although several observations suggest that they inhibit viral transcription by signal transduction through the CD4 molecule, potentially implicating the activation of a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) cascade. Since CD45 is the major protein tyrosine phosphatase associated to the plasma membrane in T cells, and has been shown to regulate the activity of several PTK, we postulated that CD45 may be necessary for the inhibitory action of the CDR3-like specific anti-CD4 antibodies. Therefore we tested the effect of one such anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody, 13B8.2, in repressing HIV replication in CD45 positive cell lines and CD45 deficient variants. Our data show that cells respond to 13B8.2 postinfection treatment regardless of CD45 expression, indicating that neither CD45 nor PTK regulated by CD45 are implicated in the mechanism of action of this antibody.

Abstract
The membrane-expressed HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein complex, gp120/gp41, has been shown to be responsible for the initiation of cell killing by apoptosis in CD4+ T cells. By using two experimental approaches we demonstrate that CD26, independent of its DPP IV activity, appears to be implicated in this function of the gp120/gp41 complex to initiate apoptosis.

Abstract
HIV-gp120 sensitizes Th1 clones from seronegative donors to apoptosis, which occurs through two distinct events: expression of CD95L followed by its interaction with CD95 to trigger cell death. gp120-apoptosis of the Th1 clone 103 was inhibited by Cyclosporin A, the PTK inhibitors Genistein and PNU152518, as well as the anti-oxidants Ascorbic Acid and Glutathione. Cyclosporin A interfered with CD95L expression, Ascorbic Acid and Glutathione inhibited cell death triggered by CD95/CD95L interaction; Genistein and PNU152518 acted on both steps. The occurrence of oxidative stress during CD95-dependent apoptosis was supported by the direct evidence of ROI production.
