Abstract

Abstract The HIV-1 vpr gene encodes a 14-kDa virion-packaged protein that has been implicated in viral pathogenesis. Vpr exhibits profound effects on human primary cells influencing proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and cytokine production, in part through NF-κB-mediated transcription. NF-κB, a potent transcription factor, activates many proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines upon infection. Here, we analyzed the effect of extracellular Vpr as well as the virion-associated Vpr on β chemokines (MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and RANTES) production in human macrophages and primary lymphocytes (PBLs). Macrophages and PBLs exposed to HIV-1 vpr+ viruses or to recombinant Vpr protein produced significantly less β chemokines compared with cells infected with HIV-1 vpr− viruses or irrelevant control protein (Gag)-exposed cells. These results suggest that a Vpr-mediated increase in virus replication could be in part through down-regulation of chemokine production.
