Differential Inhibition of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells and TZM-bl Cells by Endotoxin-Mediated Chemokine and Gamma Interferon Production

Abstract: Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin) is a frequent contaminant of biological specimens and is also known to be a potent inducer of beta-chemokines and other soluble factors that inhibit HIV-1 infection in vitro. Though lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate the production of soluble HIV-1 inhibitors in cultures of monocyte-derived macrophages, the ability of LPS to induce similar inhibitors in other cell types is poorly characterized. Here we show that LPS exhibits potent anti-HIV activity in… Show more

“…Much of this discrepancy was demonstrated to be an artifact of endotoxin contamination affecting the PBMC assay (Geonnotti et al, 2010). Endotoxin, which is bacterial lipopolysaccharide stimulates susceptible PBMCs to produce a complex array of soluble HIV-1 inhibitors, including beta-chemokines and IFN-gamma, and can cause false-positive results in neutralizing antibody assays done in PBMCs, while assays performed in TZM-bl cells are unaffected (Geonnotti et al, 2010). …”

“…The influence of endotoxin on the results of neutralization assays was well studied. 61 Endotoxin in the form of lipopolysaccharides may be released into sera by contaminating bacteria and can induce beta-chemokines in blood cell-based neutralization assays inhibiting HIV-1 infection as shown by. 61 In addition, interferon gamma released from blood cells after interaction with endotoxin may give false positive results in TZM-bl cell-based neutralizing assays.…”

Therefore, preparation, handling, transport, freeze-thawing and storage of preimmune and immune sera are of great importance when their neutralizing activity is investigated.…”
