Abstract

Cytokines such as interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) are important in normal immune processes. In this study, we demonstrate that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) virions induce normal peripheral blood mononuclear phagocytes to produce both IL-1 and TNF within a few hours after their exposure to virus. The induction of these cytokines by HIV-1 does not require a productive infection. Blocking studies with soluble CD4 indicate that the effect is mediated through the CD4 molecule. In addition, the treatment of mononuclear phagocytes with OKT4A monoclonal antibody mimics the effects of HIV-1. Thus, these results indicate that induction of IL-1 and TNF alpha can occur via signals mediated through the CD4 molecule on mononuclear phagocytes. TNF has been shown by other investigators to induce HIV-1 expression. Therefore, TNF alpha may play a role in autocrine and paracrine regulation of HIV-1 expression. In addition, the induction of IL-1 and TNF by HIV-1 may also contribute to some of the neurologic and physiologic disorders associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
