Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the alpha- and beta-chain of lymphocyte-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) were examined for inhibition of HIV-1 infection in vitro. Infection of the T cell line MT4 and the monocytic cell line U937 by isolates HTLVIIIB and SSI-002, respectively was inhibited in a concentration dependent manner by MAb against the beta-chain but not against the alpha-chain. No cross-reactivity was found between MAb against LFA-1 and against the CD4 receptor (MAb Leu3a). MAbs against the beta-chain and the CD4 receptor were found to act synergistically in inhibiting HIV infection. These data indicate that the beta-chain of LFA-1 in addition to the CD4 receptor may be involved in HIV infection in vitro.
检测了针对淋巴细胞相关抗原-1(LFA-1)α链和β链的单克隆抗体(MAb)在体外对HIV-1感染的抑制作用。分别用针对β链而非α链的单克隆抗体以浓度依赖的方式抑制了分离株HTLVIIIB和SSI-002对T细胞系MT4和单核细胞系U937的感染。未发现针对LFA-1的单克隆抗体与针对CD4受体的单克隆抗体(MAb Leu3a)之间存在交叉反应。发现针对β链的单克隆抗体和针对CD4受体的单克隆抗体在抑制HIV感染方面具有协同作用。这些数据表明,除CD4受体外,LFA-1的β链可能也参与了体外HIV感染。
