GB virus C (GBV-C) is a common, apparently nonpathogenic human flavivirus that has been associated in some studies with prolonged survival in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive persons. There are 5 distinct GBV-C genotypes localized to specific geographic regions, and genotype 2 has been previously shown to inhibit HIV replication in vitro in lymphocyte cultures. We identified GBV-C virus isolates representing genotypes 1, 2, and 5 in samples from South African blood donors. GBV-C genotype 1 and 5 isolates replicated in lymphocyte culture, inhibited X4 and R5 HIV-1 isolates, and induced RANTES and stromal-derived factor-1 chemokines in vitro. Thus, African GBV-C genotypes can inhibit HIV replication in vitro.
GB病毒C(GBV-C)是一种常见的、明显无致病性的人类黄病毒,在一些研究中,它与人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)阳性者的生存期延长有关。有5种不同的GBV-C基因型定位于特定的地理区域,先前已表明2型基因型在淋巴细胞培养中可在体外抑制HIV复制。我们在南非献血者的样本中鉴定出代表1型、2型和5型基因型的GBV-C病毒分离株。GBV-C 1型和5型分离株在淋巴细胞培养中复制,抑制X4和R5 HIV-1分离株,并在体外诱导调节激活正常T细胞表达和分泌的趋化因子(RANTES)和基质细胞衍生因子-1趋化因子。因此,非洲GBV-C基因型可在体外抑制HIV复制。
