Abstract

- Superinfection by HIV-1 of a cell line containing the complete murine leukemia virus (MuLV) genome was shown to give rise to pseudotyped HIV-1/MuLV. Such superinfection was successful with certain strains of HIV-1 subtypes A–D. Primary spleen cells and cells of the peritoneal cavity of immunocompetent mice of the C57Bl/6 strain were infectable with the pseudotype HIV-1/MuLV and secreted HIV-1 in vitro and in vivo. In contrast, the murine cell lines, NIH 3T3, myeloma cell line Sp2/0, and two murine hybridoma cell lines were relatively resistant to infection and produced no or little HIV. After primary murine spleen cells had been infected with pseudotyped HIV-1 and transferred to C57Bl/6 mice, replication-competent HIV-1 was obtained from the peritoneal cavity for at least 10–14 days. High amounts (>10<sup>5</sup> vRNA copies/ml) of HIV-1 vRNA could be measured in the peritoneal fluid. Presence of HIV-1 proviral DNA was detectable in cells from the peritoneal cavity for up to 24 days after infected cell transfer. Active reverse transcriptase representing both HIV-1 and C-type murine retroviruses was detected in the peritoneal washes. The HIV-infected spleen cells injected into the peritoneal cavity elicited HIV-1-specific cellular immune responses to p24gag, gp160Env, Nef, Tat and Rev. Mice immunized with HIV-1 DNA, but not with HIV-1 protein, cleared their HIV-1-infected cells within 10–14 days after challenge with HIV-1/MuLV-infected syngeneic spleen cells. This novel model system of primarily cellular reactivity to HIV-1-infected cells in vivo may become useful for assaying experimental HIV-1 immunization schedules.
