Dopamine increases HIV entry into macrophages by increasing calcium release via an alternative signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Dopaminergic dysfunction has long been connected to the development of HIV infection in the CNS. Our previous data showed that dopamine increases HIV infection in human macrophages by increasing the susceptibility of primary human macrophages to HIV entry through stimulation of both D1-like and D2-like receptors. These data suggest that, in macrophages, both dopamine receptor subtypes may act through a common signaling mechanism. To define better the mechanism(s) underlying this effect, this study examines the specific signaling processes activated by dopamine in primary human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDM). In addition to confirming that the increase in entry is unique to dopamine, these studies show that dopamine increases HIV entry through a PKA insensitive, Ca2+ dependent pathway. Further examination demonstrated that dopamine can signal through a previously defined, non-canonical pathway in human macrophages. This pathway involves both Ca2+ release and PKC phosphorylation, and these data show that dopamine mediates both of these effects and that both were partially inhibited by the Gq/11 specific inhibitor YM-254890. Studies have shown that Gq/11 preferentially couples to the D1-like receptor D5, indicating an important role of the D1-like receptors in mediating these effects. These data indicate a role for Ca2+ flux in the HIV entry process, and suggest a distinct signaling mechanism mediating some of the effects of dopamine in macrophages. Together, the data indicate that targeting this alternative dopamine signaling pathway might provide new therapeutic options for individuals with elevated CNS dopamine suffering from NeuroHIV.

Project description:Macrophages are one of the major targets of Human Immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) and play crucial roles in viral dissemination and persistence during AIDS progression. Here, we reveal the dynamic podosome-mediated entry of HIV-1 into macrophages. Inhibition of podosomes prevented HIV-1 entry into macrophages, while stimulation of podosome formation promoted viral entry. Single-virus tracking revealed the temporal and spatial mechanism of the dynamic podosome-mediated viral entry process. The core and ring structures of podosomes played complex roles in viral entry. The HIV coreceptor, CCR5, was recruited to form specific clusters at the podosome ring, where it participated in viral entry. The podosome facilitated HIV-1 entry with a rotation mode triggered by dynamic actin. Our discovery of this novel HIV-1 entry route into macrophages, mediated by podosomes critical for cell migration and tissue infiltration, provides a new view of HIV infection and pathogenesis, which may assist in the development of new antiviral strategies.IMPORTANCEMacrophages are motile leukocytes and play critical roles in HIV-1 infection and AIDS progression. Podosomes, as small dynamic adhesion microdomains driven by the dynamic actin cytoskeleton, are mainly involved in cell migration of macrophages. Herein, we found that HIV-1 uses dynamic podosomes to facilitate its entry into macrophages. Single-virus imaging coupled with drug assays revealed the mechanism underlying the podosome-mediated route of HIV-1 entry into macrophages, including the dynamic relationship between the viral particles and the podosome core and ring structures, the CCR5 coreceptor. The dynamic podosome-mediated entry of HIV-1 into macrophages will be very significant for HIV-1 pathogenesis, especially for viral dissemination via macrophage migration and tissue infiltration. Thus, we report a novel HIV-1 entry route into macrophages mediated by podosomes, which extends our understanding of HIV infection and pathogenesis.
