Abstract: | Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by macrophages increases secretion of soluble mediators and generates an antiinflammatory environment. We previously reported that phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by HIV-1-infected macrophages enhances viral replication, with the participation of the cytokine transforming growth factor- β1 and an integrin receptor. Now, we describe the role of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), platelet-activating factor (PAF), and the integrin α V β 3 (vitronectin receptor, VnR) in this phenomenon. Exacerbation of HIV-1 growth induced by phagocytosis of apoptotic cells was inhibited when HIV-1-infected macrophages were treated with a cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, or with a PAF receptor antagonist (BN 52021) immediately after macrophage interaction with apoptotic cells. Treatment of HIV-1-infected macrophages with BN 52021 decreased viral replication, whereas addition of PGE2 or PAF to these cells enhanced viral replication. Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to VnR reduced the macrophage uptake of apoptotic cells, prevented the enhancement of HIV-1 growth upon the engulfment of apoptotic cells, and potently augmented viral replication in HIV-1-infected macrophages in the absence of apoptotic cells. In conclusion, PGE2 and PAF, and ligation of VnR as well, contribute to amplify viral growth in HIV-1-infected macrophages upon uptake of apoptotic cells. |
