Differentiation into an Effector Memory Phenotype Potentiates HIV-1 Latency Reversal in CD4 T Cells. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • During antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV-1 remains latent in various CD4 T cell subsets, particularly in central, transitional, and effector memory T cells, complicating efforts to eradicate the virus.
  • Researchers found that different memory CD4 T cell subsets exhibit unique responses to latency-reversing agents (LRAs), with effector memory cells showing characteristics that predict a higher frequency of cells with an inducible HIV reservoir.
  • The study underscores the significance of T cell differentiation and specific transcriptional pathways in controlling HIV latency and highlights the T subset as the major source of the inducible HIV reservoir in virally suppressed individuals.

Article Abstract

During antiretroviral therapy (ART), human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) persists as a latent reservoir in CD4 T cell subsets in central memory (T), transitional memory (T), and effector memory (T) CD4 T cells. We have identified differences in mechanisms underlying latency and responses to latency-reversing agents (LRAs) in CD4 memory T cells from virally suppressed HIV-infected individuals and in an primary cell model of HIV-1 latency. Our and results demonstrate the association of transcriptional pathways of T cell differentiation, acquisition of effector function, and cell cycle entry in response to LRAs. Analyses of memory cell subsets showed that effector memory pathways and cell surface markers of activation and proliferation in the T subset are predictive of higher frequencies of cells carrying an inducible reservoir. Transcriptional profiling also demonstrated that the epigenetic machinery (known to control latency and reactivation) in the T subset is associated with frequencies of cells with HIV-integrated DNA and inducible HIV multispliced RNA. T cells were triggered to differentiate into T cells when they were exposed to LRAs, and this increase of T subset frequencies upon LRA stimulation was positively associated with higher numbers of p24 cells. Together, these data highlight differences in underlying biological latency control in different memory CD4 T cell subsets which harbor latent HIV and support a role for differentiation into a T phenotype in facilitating latency reversal. By performing phenotypic analysis of latency reversal in CD4 T cells from virally suppressed individuals, we identify the T subset as the largest contributor to the inducible HIV reservoir. Differential responses of memory CD4 T cell subsets to latency-reversing agents (LRAs) demonstrate that HIV gene expression is associated with heightened expression of transcriptional pathways associated with differentiation, acquisition of effector function, and cell cycle entry. modeling of the latent HIV reservoir in memory CD4 T cell subsets identify LRAs that reverse latency with ranges of efficiency and specificity. We found that therapeutic induction of latency reversal is associated with upregulation of identical sets of T-associated genes and cell surface markers shown to be associated with latency reversal in our and models. Together, these data support the idea that the effector memory phenotype supports HIV latency reversal in CD4 T cells.
