HIV-1 encephalitis (HIVE) and its associated dementia can occur in
up to 20% of infected individuals, usually when productive viral
replication in brain mononuclear phagocytes (macrophages and microglia)
and depletion of CD4+ T lymphocytes are most significant. T
cells control viral replication through much of HIV-1 disease, but how
this occurs remains incompletely understood. With this in mind, we
studied HIV-1-specific CTL responses in a nonobese diabetic (NOD)-SCID
mouse model of HIVE. HIV-1-infected monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM)
were injected into the basal ganglia after syngeneic immune
reconstitution by HLA-A*0201-positive human PBL to generate a
human PBL-NOD-SCID HIVE mouse. Engrafted T lymphocytes produced
HIV-1gag- and HIV-1pol-specific CTL against
virus-infected brain MDM within 7 days. This was demonstrated by
tetramer staining of human PBL in mouse spleens and by IFN-
ELISPOT.
CD8, granzyme B, HLA-DR, and CD45R0 Ag-reactive T cells and
CD79
-positive B cells migrated to and were in contact with human MDM
in brain areas where infected macrophages were abundant. The numbers of
productively infected MDM were markedly reduced (>85%) during 2 wk of
observation. The human PBL-NOD-SCID HIVE mouse provides a new tool for
studies of cellular immune responses against HIV-1-infected brain
mononuclear phagocytes during natural disease and after
vaccination.
