摘要
Miltefosine (Milt) was originally synthesized as an antineoplastic agent but this phospholipid drug is now clinically used as an antiprotozoal compound. We demonstrate here that Milt reduces replication of HIV-1 in cocultures of human dendritic cells (DCs) and CDA(+) T cells. This phenomenon is due to a rapid secretion of soluble factors by DCs. We present evidence that the Milt-mediated repression in virus production is associated with induction of type-I interferon (IFN) in DCs. The Milt-dependent diminution in HIV-1 production was not totally abrogated by B18R, a vaccinia virus-encoded neutralizing type-I IFN receptor, which suggests the involvement of another yet to be identified soluble factor. Altogether, these results suggest that a therapy with Milt when used to control protozoan infections in individuals also carrying HIV-1 might also help to limit viral load. Additional studies are warranted to estimate the exact therapeutic potential of Milt as an anti-HIV-1 agent. (c) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
