Peripheral Blood CD4 and CD8 Double-Positive T Cells of Rhesus Macaques Become Vulnerable to Simian Immunodeficiency Virus by In Vitro Stimulation Due to the Induction of CCR5

Abstract: ABSTRACT. In vivo Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) challenge of macaques demonstrated the earlier disappearance of CD4 and CD8 double-positive (DP) T cells than CD4 single-positive T cells, although its mechanism remains unclear. Here we found that peripheral DP T cells were readily induced to express CCR5, a secondary receptor for SIV, by in vitro stimulation with either concanavalin A or anti-CD3/CD28 monoclonal antibodies. Activated DP T cells were more vulnerable to SIV infection, indicating that the ab… Show more

“…We also measured the proportion of CD3 + cells that expressed both CD4 and CD8. These CD4 + CD8 + double‐positive cells in the gut have been previously shown to be highly active, highly CCR5‐expressing T cells that are primary targets for SIV infection in macaques . Consistent with these findings, double‐positive T cells from upper and lower GI biopsies were significantly depleted in animal Z09087.…”

“…In humans, DP T have been described in the peripheral blood as differentiated antigen-specific cells developed in response to viral pathogens (44) and in the affected tissues of suspected autoimmune diseases (reviewed in Reference 39); DP T were also identified in BAL of HIV-infected patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease but not in HIV infection or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease alone (45). In both humans and macaques, peripheral blood DP T display distinct functional responses to both pathogen-specific and nonspecific stimulation (44,(46)(47)(48); the mycobacterialspecific responses of these cells have not yet been published. However, determination of the distinct antigen specificities and functional responses of this population is needed to determine whether its presence alters the overall BAL T-cell response in macaques in a way that is not recapitulated in humans.…”
