摘要
In this study we evaluated the effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) recombinant tat-protein on the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6), granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) by purified peripheral blood monocytes. Whereas no effects were observed on TNF-alpha and GM-CSF production, recombinant tat-protein was able to induce the production of IL-6 by peripheral blood monocytes in a dose-dependent fashion for concentrations ranging from 1 ng/ml to 1 mug/ml. Pre-exposure of tat-protein with a polyclonal neutralizing anti-tat antibody (dilution 1:100) completely abrogated the tat-dependent increase in IL-6 production. The ability of tat-protein to selectively stimulate the production of IL-6 by peripheral blood monocytes could help to explain the presence of elevated levels of IL-6 in the serum of HIV-1 seropositive individuals, especially in patients in advanced stages of the disease with an active viral replication.
