Abstract

CHEMOKINES are chemotactic cytokines that activate and direct the migration of leukocytes1,2. There are two subfamilies, the CXC and the CC chemokines. We recently found that the CXC-chemokine stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)3,4 is a highly efficacious lymphocyte chemoattractant5. Chemokines act on responsive leukocyte subsets through G-protein-coupled seven-transmembrane receptors1, which are also used by distinct strains of HIV-1 as cofactors for viral entry. Laboratory-adapted and some T-celi-line-tropic (T-tropic) primary viruses use the orphan chemokine receptor LESTR/fusin (also known as fusin)6–8, whereas macrophage-tropic primary HIV-1 isolates use CCR-5 and CCR-3 (refs 7–11), which are receptors for known CC chemokines. Testing of potential receptors demonstrated that SDF-1 signalled through, and hence 'adopted', the orphan receptor LESTR, which we therefore designate CXC-chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR-4). SDF-1 induced an increase in intracellular free Ca2+ and chemotaxis in CXCR-4-transfected cells. Because SDF-1 is a biological ligand for the HIV-1 entry cofactor LESTR, we tested whether it inhibited HIV-1. SDF-1 inhibited infection by T-tropic HIV-1 of HeLa-CD4 cells, CXCR-4 transfectants, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), but did not affect CCR-5-mediated infection by macrophage-tropic (M-tropic) and dual-tropic primary HIV-1.
