Requirement for macrophages in neuronal injury induced by HIV envelope protein gp120

NeuroReport, 1992
HIV-1-related neuronal injury may involve a complex web of viral proteins and cytokines, but neurons themselves are not infected. The HIV envelope protein gp120 has been shown to engender an early increase in neuronal free calcium followed by delayed excitotoxic-like damage, which is prevented by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists.

Potent and Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies Targeting HIV Envelope Protein gp120

Future Virology, 2012
Evaluation of: Pejchal R, Doores KJ, Walker LM et al. A potent and broad neutralizing antibody recognizes and penetrates the HIV glycan shield. Science 334(6059), 1097–1103 (2011). A dense glycan shield of HIV Env protein gp120 protects gp120 from antibody recognition.

7‐Chlorokynurenate Ameliorates Neuronal Injury Mediated by HIV Envelope Protein gp120 in Rodent Retinal Cultures

European Journal of Neuroscience, 1992
AbstractPrior studies with in vitro model systems have suggested that at least part of the neurological manifestations of AIDS may stem from neuronal injury involving the HIV‐1 coat protein gp120. This form of neuronal damage is most probably mediated indirectly by a complex set of cellular interactions among macrophages, astrocytes, and neurons ...

The HIV-1 envelope protein GP120 induces neuronal apoptosis in hippocampal slices

NeuroReport, 1996
The HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 produces neuronal cell damage in primary cultures of a variety of cell types including hippocampal and retinal ganglion cell neurons. The properties of primary cell cultures are, however, often markedly different from those of cells living in their normal environment.

Direct cytotoxicity of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 on human NT neurons

NeuroReport, 1996
A new in vitro system comprising a pure population of neurons, human NT cells, was used to characterize the direct neurotoxic effect of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120. Cytotoxicity was monitored by a quantitative assay after exposure to recombinant gp120 in the presence or absence of other reagents.

HIV Envelope Protein gp120 Stimulates Expression of Specific Chemokines in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells.

Blood, 2004
Abstract Lymphoid organs are the major anatomical home of HIV, where the virus replicates during both the acute and chronic phases of infections. In this regard, there are significantly more infected cells in lymph nodes (LNs) than in circulating blood, and these infected cells are a major reservoir of infectious HIV.

HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 affects phenotype and function of monocytes in vitro

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1994
Abstract We investigated the effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) recombinant gp120 (rec.gp120) on phenotype and function of cultured monocytes. Rec.gp120 significantly reduced the accessory function of monocytes to stimulate autologous lymphocytes with anti-CD3, the Fc receptor–mediated chemiluminescence of monocytes ...

Peripheral nerve exposure to HIV viral envelope protein gp120 induces neuropathic pain and spinal gliosis

Journal of Neuroimmunology, 2001
Painful sensory neuropathy is a common and debilitating consequence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The underlying causes of neuropathic pain are most likely not due to direct infection of the nervous system by active virus. The goal of this study was to determine whether epineural exposure to the HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 could lead to ...

HIV-1 Envelope Protein (gp120) Inhibits the Activity of Human Bronchoalveolar Macrophages againstCryptococcus neoformans

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1992
Cryptococcus neoformans infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality for HIV-infected persons. Containment of the initial respiratory inoculation to the lung appears defective in patients with AIDS despite the low burden of HIV in bronchoalveolar macrophages. We have studied the fungistatic activity of human bronchoalveolar macrophages (BAM)

Global and Local Structural Properties of the Principal Neutralizing Determinant of the HIV-1 Envelope Protein gp120

Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 1999
The model of spatial structure for the principal neutralizing determinant (PND) of the HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 is proposed in terms of two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) spectroscopy data. To build the model, the NMR-based theoretical conformational analysis of synthetic PND peptides of length 40, 24, and 12 residues is carried out ...
