A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem
e.g. searching for members in projects tagged cancer

Studies of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and nonhuman primate models of pathogenic and nonpathogenic simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infections have suggested that enhanced ex vivo CD4 T-cell death is a feature of pathogenic infection in vivo. However, the relative contributions of the extrinsic and intrinsic pathways to programmed T-cell death in SIV infection have not been studied. We report here that the spontaneous death rate of CD4+ T cells from pathogenic SIVmac251-infected rhesus macaques ex vivo is correlated with CD4 T-cell depletion and plasma viral load in vivo. CD4+ T cells from SIVmac251-infected macaques showed upregulation of the death ligand (CD95L) and of the proapoptotic proteins Bim and Bak, but not of Bax. Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from SIVmac251-infected macaques underwent caspase-dependent death following CD95 ligation. The spontaneous death of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells was not prevented by a decoy CD95 receptor or by a broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor (zVAD-fmk), suggesting that this form of cell death is independent of CD95/CD95L interaction and caspase activation. IL-2 and IL-15 prevented the spontaneous death of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, whereas IL-10 prevented only CD8 T-cell death and IL-7 had no effect on T-cell death. Our results indicate that caspase-dependent and caspase-independent pathways are involved in the death of T cells in pathogenic SIVmac251-infected primates.
