Abstract

Viral replication and microbial translocation from the gut to the blood during HIV infection lead to hyperimmune activation, which contributes to the decline in CD4+ T cell numbers during HIV infection. Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) are both upregulated during HIV infection VSports手机版. Blocking interactions between PD-1 and programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and between IL-10 and IL-10 receptor (IL-10R) results in viral clearance and improves T cell function in animal models of chronic viral infections. Here we show that high amounts of microbial products and inflammatory cytokines in the plasma of HIV-infected subjects lead to upregulation of PD-1 expression on monocytes that correlates with high plasma concentrations of IL-10. Triggering of PD-1 expressed on monocytes by PD-L1 expressed on various cell types induced IL-10 production and led to reversible CD4+ T cell dysfunction. We describe a new function for PD-1 whereby microbial products inhibit T cell expansion and function by upregulating PD-1 levels and IL-10 production by monocytes after binding of PD-1 by PD-L1. .

(a–c) IL-10 concentrations, as measured by ELISA 24 h after incubation of monocytes with 10 μg ml−1 antibody to PD-1, polyclonal goat IgG (n = 7; (a)), antibody to HLA-I or antibody to HLA-II (b) in the presence or absence of 5 or 10 μg ml−1 polymyxin-B ((c) n = 3). (d) Flow cytometry plots showing IL-10 expression in monocytes incubated with 10 μg ml−1 antibody to PD-1 or 1 μg ml−1 LPS; 5 μg ml−1 monensin was added 1 or 18 h later (n = 3). (e,f) IL-10 secreted by monocytes incubated for 24 h with 10 μg ml−1 antibody to PD-1 for 0, 3, 6, 24 and 48 h (e) or with a range of concentrations of antibody to PD-1 (f); n = 3 for each). (g) IL-10 expression as measured by flow cytometry and ELISA at 24 h after incubation of CD16− and CD16+ monocytes with 10 μg ml−1 antibody to PD-1. For flow cytometry analysis, 5 μg ml−1 monensin was added or not 18 h after stimulation. Cell concentrations were 1 ×106 cells per ml. (h) IL-10 expression, as measured by flow cytometry and ELISA at 48 h after monocyte incubation with PD-L1–expressing (in the presence or absence of antibody to PD-L1), PD-L2–expressing or Mock (empty vector)-expressing Cos-7 cells at a ratio of 1:4. Monensin was added or not 24 h after the incubation with Cos cells (n = 4). Owing to subject variability, ELISA results are expressed as the fold increase in IL-10 production by monocytes cultured with Cos-Mock cells.

(c) IL-10 production by monocytes, as measured by flow cytometry, after the incubation in the presence of a blocking antibody to PD-L1. Owing to the variable levels of IL-10 production between subjects, results are reported as the fold decrease of the percentage of cells expressing IL-10 as compared to untreated cells. IL-10 production by the latter are normalized to 1. *P ≤ 0.01 and **P ≤ 0.001.
