Paper-1983845. Moreover, the fact that HIV-1 stimulation did not induce nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB in cells expressing a mutant form of CD4 at position 420 (C420A) and the wild-type p56(lck) indicates the requirement for a functional CD4-p56(lck) complex. Paper-1460510. Although production of MIP 1 alpha and IL-8 were similar in pharmacologically stimulated CD4+ CD45RA+, CD4+ CD45RO+, and CD8+ CD45RA+ cells, the largest amounts of MIP 1 alpha and RANTES were secreted by CD8+ CD45RO+ lymphocytes. Paper-193771. The affinity of the CD4- CCR5 complex for MIP-1beta was 3.5-fold lower than for CCR5, but the interaction of CD4 and CCR5 resulted in a receptor complex that exhibited enhanced G-protein signaling as compared with CCR5 alone.

V2 loop glycosylation of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 SF162 envelope facilitates interaction of this protein with CD4 and CCR5 receptors and protects the virus from neutralization by anti-V3 loop and anti- CD4 binding site antibodies. Paper-8410776. We further demonstrate that the physical association of CCR5 and CD4 in membrane vesicles results in the formation of a receptor complex that exhibits macrophage inflammatory protein 1beta ( MIP-1beta) binding properties that are distinct from CCR5. Paper-9871710. The same susceptibility is observed in T-cells expressing a truncated form of CD4 that is able to recruit Siva-1 but fails to associate with p56Lck, indicating that Siva-1 participates in a pathway independent of the p56Lck kinase activity. Paper-12563552. Endo-beta-N-glucosaminidase H (EndoH) treatment of gp120-Fc under conditions that maintained wild-type CD4 binding-and the full complement of complex glycans-significantly decreased (>90%) binding to DC-SIGN expressing cell lines, as well as to MDDCs. Paper-9231953. In addition, a larger proportion of CD4+ T cells infected with R5 viruses had significantly higher levels of activation-marker expression (e.g. CD25, CD71 and HLA-DR) than CD4+ T lymphocytes infected with X4 viruses (P<0.02). Paper-11010816. At the physiological concentrations found in saliva, SLPI has a specific antiviral activity against HIV-1 that is related to the perturbation of the virus entry process at a stage posterior to the interaction of the viral surface glycoprotein with the CD4 receptor. Paper-13693627. There was no experimental evidence that this difference was due to a lower availability of target cells for viral infection (PBMCs positive for CD4 and CCR5 molecules) or to a differential susceptibility to apoptosis (PBMCs positive for CD4 and CD95 molecules). Paper-9510029. RESULTS: In acute hepatitis C, generally only a low percentage of HCV-specific CD4(+) T cells expressed FOXP3(+) (mean of 2.5% in patients with self-limited acute hepatitis C vs 2.4% in patients with evolving chronic hepatitis C). Paper-14028025. Influence of FK 506 ( tacrolimus) on circulating CD4+ T cells expressing CD25 and CD45RA antigens in 19 patients with chronic progressive multiple sclerosis participating in an open label drug safety trial. Paper-253337. These results point to a new function for CD4 and CD8 coreceptors in TCR signal transduction, namely to promote LAT phosphorylation by ZAP-70 by recruiting LAT to major histocompatibility complex-engaged TCR complexes. Paper-8344883. The gp120 glycoprotein is used for binding to CD4 receptor and CCR5 co-receptor of T helper 2 (Th2) cells and the virions shed gp120 is able to induce FcepsilonRI+ hematopoietic cells to produce IL-4, which inactivate the host adaptive immune response. Paper-10535538. Chimeras between the DR4 or DR1 molecules, which interact efficiently with CD4, and DRw53, which interacts poorly, allowed the mapping of polymorphic residues between positions beta 180 and 189 that can exert a dramatic influence on the interaction with CD4. Paper-330714. Together, these findings suggest that although CD4+ CD25+ T regulatory cells induced by IL-10 seem to contribute to aspects of sepsis-induced lymphoid immune suppression, the oblation of CD25+ cells does not provide a survival advantage or disadvantage. Paper-13112635. HIV-1 infection of target monocytes or T cells by cell-free virus was blocked completely or partially by some mAb that prevent cell-cell interactions ( CD4, HLA-DR, LFA-1, LFA-3), but not by others (ICAM-1, MAC-1, gp150.95, CD2, CD3, CD14). Paper-7031862. Binding of purified HIV-1 virions or recombinant HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 to CD4 receptors resulted in association and tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of tyrosine kinase Lck and serine/ threonine kinase Raf-1. Paper-760550. When risk estimates were adjusted for time-dependent covariates of CD4, serum beta2-microglobulin, P24 antigen, antiretroviral use, and the other subscales of the CES-D, positive affect remained significantly predictive of lower risk of AIDS mortality (RR = 0.90, CI = 0.85-0.97). Paper-9920677. Collectively, these data demonstrate that beta-catenin is critical in inducing CD4 expression on mature CD8(+) T cells, suggesting that it is a common pathway for CD4 upregulation among thymocytes and mature CD8(+) T cells. Paper-15332506. We also evaluated whether factors such as gender, age, and HIV-exposure category were associated with being LTNP; we determined the overlap among the definitions and compared the CD4 and CD8 counts and the CD4/ CD8 decline among LTNPs and "moderate" and "fast" progressors. Paper-954994. Using murine T cell hybridomas transfected to express native or mutated forms of CD4, it was determined that IL-16/ CD4 induces a p56(lck)-dependent inhibitory signal for CXCR4, which is independent of its tyrosine catalytic activity. Paper-8577308. The costimulation mediated by the activation-dependent interaction of the VLA-4 and LFA-1 integrins with their respective ligands VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 leads to increased IL-2R alpha (CD25) expression and proliferation in both CD45RA+ CD4+ and CD45RO+ CD4+ T cells. Paper-6872087. During the recovery phase, however, the number of V beta 8.2+ SC T cells was similar in protected and control groups; in contrast, there was striking reduction in the number and size of CD45R hi/ CD4+ T cells in the protected animals. Paper-110792. Furthermore, infection of astrocytes by HIV-1 isolates with different chemokine receptor usage was not inhibited by the chemokines SDF-1beta, RANTES, MIP-1beta, or MCP-1 or by antibodies directed against the third variable region or the CD4 binding site of gp120. Paper-8314035. For example, it is evident that HIV can interact concomitantly with non-LC dendritic cells in two separate and distinct ways: a CD4- and CCR5-dependent infection pathway and a CD4- and CCR5-independent capture pathway mediated by DC-SIGN, a C-type lectin molecule. Paper-11060445. We now report that such competition is required for normal anatomical compartmentalization, can influence the rate of thymocyte velocities within chemokine gradients, and can account for the disproportion between single-positive CD4 and CD8 lineages developing from double-positive precursors. Paper-12442596. The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Vpu protein acts as an adaptor for the proteasomal degradation of CD4 by recruiting CD4 and beta-transducin repeat-containing protein ( betaTrCP), the receptor component of the multisubunit SCF- betaTrCP E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Paper-10287053. We have previously shown that cross-linking of CD4 molecules (CD4XL) in normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) results in secretion of cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha ( TNF-alpha) and interferon-gamma ( IFN-gamma), but not of interleukin-2 ( IL-2) or IL-4. Paper-1145886. Although MDM activation by immobilized IgG induced high levels of macrophage-derived chemokine secretion as well as a sustained down-regulation of CD4 and a transient decrease in CCR5 expression, these factors did not appear to play a major role in the suppression of HIV-1 replication. Paper-9861866. This pattern is altered in chronic HIV infection, where ex vivo CD4(+) CD45RO(+) T cells express elevated ps20. ps20 promoted HIV entry via fusion and augmented CD54 integrin expression; both of these effects were reversed by anti-ps20 antibody. Paper-12660075. The core glycosylated and signal-sequence-retained forms of gp160 and gp120 associated with calnexin while the signal-sequence- cleaved forms of gp160 and gp120 had disassociated from calnexin and correctly folded as determined by their ability to associate with the CD4 cellular receptor. Paper-8478220. Thirteen women had > or = 1 immune response in the form of CD8 cell noncytotoxic HIV-1 suppressive activity, proliferative CD4 cell response to HIV antigens, CD8 cell production of macrophage inflammatory protein-1 beta, or ELISPOT assay for HIV-1-specific interferon-gamma secretion. Paper-9156506. This postulate is based on experiments where galectin-1 rendered HIV-1 particles more refractory to various agents that block HIV-1 adsorption and coreceptor binding (i.e., a blocking anti- CD4, soluble CD4, human anti-HIV-1 polyclonal Abs; stromal cell-derived factor-1alpha; RANTES). Paper-10983124. Using such transfectant cell clones, it was demonstrated that p56lck-positive cells are markedly more susceptible to the syncytium formation than p56lck-negative cells, implying a regulatory role for p56lck in syncytium formation mediated by the HIV envelope and CD4 molecule. Paper-7457560. Furthermore, 2G12 inhibited Env attachment to primary monocyte-derived dendritic cells, that expressed CD4 and CCR5 primary HIV receptors, as well as DC-SIGN, and suggested that the dual activities of 2G12 could be valuable in vivo for inhibiting initial virus dissemination and propagation. Paper-12083835. IkappaB kinases (IKKs) activity was found to be selectively enhanced following CD4 engagement with gp120(env) and to mediate the phosphorylation of IkappaB-alpha while co-transfection experiments using dominant-negative forms of IKKs inhibited gp120(env)- induced NF-kappaB activation. Paper-9204560. WFDC1/ps20 is a novel innate immunomodulatory signature protein of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-permissive CD4+ CD45RO+ memory T cells that promotes infection by upregulating CD54 integrin expression and is elevated in HIV type 1 infection. Paper-12660075. Here we show that a complex of gp120, the exterior envelope glycoprotein, of macrophage-tropic primary HIV-1 and soluble CD4 interacts specifically with CCR-5 and inhibits the binding of the natural CCR-5 ligands, macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha and MIP-1beta (refs 7, 8). Paper-749845. Because of the association of intracellular shifts in protein kinase C (PKC) enzyme activity with production of these secondary messengers and the participation of PKC in transducing certain receptor-mediated migratory signals, we investigated the role of PKC in the CD4- mediated migratory response by IL-16. Paper-514630. The sIL-2R level, especially in the cerebrospinal fluid, showed higher sensitivity and specificity than other clinical parameters including the cerebrospinal fluid IgG ratio, peripheral lymphocyte CD4/ CD8 ratio, cerebrospinal fluid myelin basic protein and oligoclonal bands. Paper-6645048. Pretreatment with gp160 resulted in marked inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation of p59(fyn), PLC-gamma1, ras activation, and TNF-alpha secretion in anti-CD3 mAb activated CD4+ T cells, and a subset of CD4+ cells underwent activation-induced cell death. Paper-1238671. This correlation was at first suggested by results obtained in a panel of human CD4(+) T cell lines expressing different CD38 levels (MT-4, MT-2, C8166, CEMx174, Supt-1, and H9) and then demonstrated using CD38 transfectants of MT-4 cells (the line with the lowest CD38 expression). Paper-2050379. Measurement of T (CD3+), B (CD19+), natural killer (NK, CD3-CD16/56+), CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes showed that patients with APS1 had a higher percentage and absolute count of T lymphocytes: this was entirely due to the statistically larger CD3+CD4+ fraction. Paper-11285090. Binding of the T-cell antigen CD4 to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ( HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein gp120 has been reported to induce conformational rearrangements in the envelope complex that facilitate recognition of the CCR5 coreceptor and consequent viral entry into cells. Paper-1970874. Binding of either the CXC-chemokine, stromal-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF-1 alpha), or a CXCR4 antagonist, AMD3100, to CXCR4 inhibits infection of CD4(+) T cells by T-tropic HIV-1, although only SDF-1 alpha triggers T-cell signaling cascades. Paper-10350757. We conclude that HIV-1 Nef plays a critical role in multiple processes in CD4 down-regulation: (i) disrupting the CD4-p56(lck) complex on the cell surface to allow CD4 internalization and (ii) diverting the internalized CD4 to a lysosomal pathway for its degradation, likely through a PI3K activity. Paper-8282020. Further analysis of the folding state of gp160 and gp120 in nonreducing SDS-PAGE revealed that the signal-sequence-retained and calnexin-associated forms of gp160 and gp120 migrated as broad, diffuse bands, whereas the signal-sequence-cleaved or CD4-associated forms of gp160 and gp120 migrated as single sharper bands. Paper-8478220. The interaction of sgp120IIIB or sgp120MN with CXCR4 was inhibited by neutralizing monoclonal antibodies that prevent the sgp120- CD4 interaction but also by antibodies specific for the gp120 V2 and V3 loops, the CD4-induced epitope and the 2G12 epitope, which interfere weakly or not at all with CD4-sgp120 binding. Paper-1552748. Similarly, stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1alpha interacts not only with CXCR4 expressed by CXCR4(+) CD4(+) U937, CEM, and HOS- CD4(+) CXCR4(+) cells but also with CD4 expressed by intact U937, CEM, and HOS- CD4(+) CXCR4(+/-) cells or electroblotted onto Immobilon. Paper-2077765. Syncytia arising from the fusion of cells expressing a lymphotropic human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1-encoded envelope glycoprotein complex (Env) gene with cells expressing the CD4/ CXCR4 complex undergo apoptosis through a mitochondrion-controlled pathway initiated by the upregulation of Bax. Paper-9047892. Accordingly, our data suggest that CIITA is not involved per se in tumour progression; rather, it is the MHC class II molecules themselves, through tumour antigen presentation and the induction of tumour antigen-specific CD4 lymphocyte anergy, that may participate in immune escape and melanoma progression. Paper-10862575. By selecting the CD45(+) population and simultaneous staining with several leukocyte lineage markers (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD56, and CD19), MHC-mismatched leukocytes were consistently detected in cell suspensions prepared from directly stained whole blood samples with a threshold sensitivity as low as 0.1%-0.2%. Paper-9939299. We show that (1) CLIV does not interfere with Env binding to CD4 and does not interact with the binding site of Env on CXCR4; (2) CLIV does not inhibit protease activities already reported to play a role in fusion; and (3) the pharmacophore is composed of cleavage site1 with amino acid residues at its C terminal end. Paper-9374670. Using CD4(+) CXCR4(+) permissive human leukemic CEM T cells and primary lymphocytes, we have investigated whether HIV-1 Env might promote viral entry and infection by activating ERM (ezrin-radixin- moesin) proteins to regulate F-actin reorganization and CD4/ CXCR4 co-clustering. Paper-13498106. In this study, a comparison of draining lymph node cells from L. amazonensis- and L. major-infected mice at 10 weeks postinfection showed equivalent percentages of effector/memory phenotype CD44hi CD4+ T cells producing interleukin-2 ( IL-2) and proliferating after antigen stimulation. Paper-11363564. Similarly, the SNP barcode of rs12812942-rs2228014-rs3025039 ( CD4- CXCR4- VEGF) and rs12812942-rs3136685-rs2228014-rs1801157 ( CD4- CCR7- CXCR4- CXCL12) with specific genotype patterns (AT-CC-CC and AT-AG-CC-GG) among three and four combinational SNPs were significantly low in breast cancer occurrence. Paper-14107299. The efficiency of CD4-specific CB1-inserted PIN-bodies was confirmed in biological assays where these constructs showed higher potencies to block antigen presentation by inhibition of IL-2 secretion and to inhibit the one-way and two-way mixed lymphocyte reactions, compared with soluble anti-CD4 PDP CB1. Paper-11394753. As a part of a research project on molecular variation in Central Africa, we have analyzed 10 microsatellites ( CD4, CSFO, D3S1358, D18S51, D21S11, F13A1, FES, TH01, TPOX, and VWA) in the Bamileke and Ewondo from Cameroon and the Sanga and Mbenzele Pygmies from the Central African Republic (a total of 390 chromosomes). Paper-8370295. Nevertheless, the observation that IIIB gp120 strongly primed tailless CD4 co-down-modulation on human osteosarcoma HOS cells that express undetectable levels of surface CXCR4 raised the possibility that membrane component(s) other than those recently identified can be involved in down-modulation of the CD4/gp120 complexes. Paper-10577083. SDF-1alpha binding to CD4(+) CXCR4(+/-) cells, or soluble CD4 electroblotted onto Immobilon, is significantly inhibited by sCD4, whereas truncated sCD4 lacking D3 and D4 domains had no significant effect, which indicates that SDF-1 binds to CD4 but at regions different from the HIV-gp120-binding site. Paper-2077765. Notably, polymerase chain reaction analysis demonstrated that neonatal CD45RA+ CD4+ T cells expressing CD25 contained spliced mRNA transcripts possibly encoding CD45RO in addition to CD45RA-associated transcripts, seemingly indicating that this population might be in the recently antigen-primed states. Paper-7005993. M1 polarization was associated with a significant down-regulation of CD4 receptors, increased secretion of CCR5-binding chemokines ( CCL3, CCL4, and CCL5), and a >90% decrease in HIV-1 DNA levels 48-h postinfection, suggesting that the inhibition occurred at an early preintegration step in the viral life cycle. Paper-13752697. We next found, by using truncated CD4 lacking the C-terminal 31 amino acids or mutated CD4 with the cysteine residues at 394 and 397 replaced by serine, that the p56lck binding site or the covalent modification with palmitic acid was not necessary for CD4 to associate with CD81 and CD82. Paper-314050. Our data show that CD71 self-associates on the cell surface, that a small fraction of CD4 can be detected by copurifying it with CD71 after cross-linking, and that the level of association between CD4 and CD71 significantly increases after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate- induced endocytosis of CD4. Paper-10410228. In 12 cases immunohistochemical technics were applied to determine SmIg, B cell differentiation antigens ( CD19, CD20, CD21, BL14, FmC7) and T cells subsets ( CD2, CD3, CD4, CD8) the quantification of the various T cell subsets showed that CD3, CD4, positive T cell were lower in advanced stages of CLL. Paper-11963477. We examined the effects of SHIV VLPs containing Env proteins derived from either a T-cell-tropic HIV (BH10) strain or a dual-tropic HIV (89.6) strain on induction of apoptosis in recombinant CD4+ human osteosarcoma (HOS) cells expressing either CXCR4 (HOS-CD4.CXCR4) or CCR5 coreceptors (HOS-CD4.CCR5). Paper-8846385. The laboratory findings significantly associated with progression to AIDS were: decrease of the relative and absolute number of CD4 lymphocytes, decrease of the CD4/ CD8 ratio, HIV p24 antigenaemia, lack of anti-HIV p24, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, anaemia and elevated serum-beta-2-microglobulin. Paper-7005158. We measured CD4- and CD8-specific interferon- gamma responses to hepatitis C virus (HCV) peptide pools in subjects with chronic HCV monoinfection (n=14), in subjects with chronic HCV/ HIV coinfection (n=15), and in healthy control subjects (n=10) by enzyme-linked immunospot assay in the presence and absence of CD28 costimulation.Results. Paper-12139565. Human beta TrCP identified by interaction with Vpu connects CD4 to this proteolytic machinery, and CD4-Vpu- beta TrCP ternary complexes have been detected by coimmunoprecipitation. beta TrCP binding to Vpu and its recruitment to membranes require two phosphoserine residues in Vpu essential for CD4 degradation. Paper-1489614. The presence of AD during the first year of life (n = 9) was associated with an increased number of naive CD4(+) CD45RA(+) lymphocytes (p = 0.03), with an increased spontaneous IL-4 production by CD8(+) lymphocytes (p = 0.04) and with a decreased percentage of IFN-gamma producing stimulated CD4(+) lymphocytes (p = 0.04). Paper-10533968. Flow cytometry was used to determine cord blood lymphocyte subtypes and to quantify the intracellular amounts of IL-2, IFN-gamma and IL-4 produced by cord blood CD4(+) helper and CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes, both spontaneously and after stimulation with phorbol-12-mirystate-13-acetate and ionomycin. Paper-10533968. We have previously shown that NF-kappaB nuclear translocation can be observed upon human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ( HIV-1) binding to cells expressing the wild-type CD4 molecule, but not in cells expressing a truncated form of CD4 that lacks the cytoplasmic domain (M. Benkirane, K.-T. Jeang, and C. Devaux, EMBO J. 13:5559-5569, 1994). Paper-1460510. Twenty HIV-negative volunteers who received V1 b.i.d. for 4 weeks had gained 28.2 and 17.5% in absolute CD4 (825 versus 1058; P=0.007) and CD8 (597 versus 702; P=0.013) cells, while lymphocytes in placebo group did not increase, suggesting that CD4 and CD8 counts may become an easily measurable immune correlate of the efficacy of AIDS vaccines. Paper-9914720. By using a previously described proliferation assay that augments specific responses, peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from 61 human immunodeficiency virus type 1-seropositive individuals with CD4 counts of >300/mm3 and suppressed viral burdens were studied for response to p24 antigen as a function of time of viral load suppression on HAART. Paper-11182361. These results support the hypothesis that CD4 ligation by HIV-1 envelope protein in vivo in HIV-infected patients selectively reduces Bcl-2 protein in CD4+ T lymphocytes, thereby facilitating Fas/ Fas-ligand triggered apoptosis; furthermore the findings reported expand the rationale for use of IL-2 in HIV disease. Paper-1089324. Flow cytometry was used to determine the expression of such adhesion molecules as L selectin ( CD62L), VLA-4 integrin ( CD49d), intracellular molecule ICAM-1 ( CD54) and cytotoxic lymphocyte molecule CTLA-4 ( CD152), as well as the lymphocyte antigens: CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19, CD1656 (NK), CD4 and CD8 RO+ and RA+. Paper-10633844. Short term stimulation of highly purified human peripheral blood CD4+ T-cells with PMA/ ionomycin, followed by the cytometric analysis of intracellular cytokines, showed that a minor subpopulation of CD4+ CD45RA+ CD45RO- cells is able to produce interferon-gamma ( IFN-gamma) rapidly, a characteristic of antigen-experienced Th1 cells. Paper-1169376. The NKG2D(+)CD4(+) T cells correspond to a normally occurring small CD4 T cell subset that is autoreactive, primed to produce IL-10, and clearly distinct from proinflammatory and cytolytic CD4 T cells with cytokine- induced NKG2D expression that occur in rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. Paper-13715975. In addition, we found that human CD4+ CD45RA- T cells that adhered to the alpha4/beta7 ligand mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 ( MAdCAM-1) had a greater capacity to produce IFN-gamma than did non-adherent cells, suggesting that the association between alpha4/beta7 expression and IFN-gamma production has functional significance. Paper-8986900. Together, the overlap in CD4 sequences required for interaction with Nef and p56lck and the tight correlation between Nef- induced CD4 down-modulation and disruption of CD4- p56lck association suggest that Nef, or cellular factors recruited by Nef, interact with this segment of CD4 to displace p56lck from the complex and induce CD4 endocytosis. Paper-154572. No difference was seen in the pattern of interleukin-4 ( IL-4) or interferon-gamma ( IFN-gamma) producing clones derived from CD4+ CD45RA+ and CD4+ CD45RO+ precursors, although freshly isolated and polyclonally activated CD4+ CD45RA+ T cells produced 20-30-fold lower levels of IL-4 and IFN-gamma than their CD4+ CD45RO+ counterparts. Paper-1154435. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) analysis revealed that CD45RC- CD4+ T cells harvested from hepatic allografts pretreated with PVG.r1 blood expressed interleukin-4 ( IL-4) and interleukin-10 ( IL-10), but not interleukin-2 ( IL-2) or interferon-gamma ( IFN-gamma). Paper-1526497. These synonyms are used for gene CD4 (CD4 molecule): T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4, T-cell surface antigen T4/Leu-3.
