We investigated roles for chemoattractants in dissemination of HIV-1 by examining the induction of T cell-active chemokines in HIV-1-infected human monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells. Of the 12 chemokines analyzed, mRNAs for two, CXCL10 and CXCL11, ligands for the chemokine receptor CXCR3, were up-regulated in both cell types upon infection by HIV-1. Induction of these chemokine genes in infected cultures was dependent on both viral entry and reverse transcriptase activity, but not on the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein. Conditioned medium from infected cells was chemotactic for freshly isolated human CD4+ T cells, and chemotaxis was abolished by pretreatment with an Ab against CXCR3. A lymph node from an HIV-1-infected individual expressed CXCL10 and CXCL11 mRNAs in the paracortex, including venules, as detected by in situ hybridization, whereas neither mRNA was detected after highly active antiretroviral therapy. Because CCR5 on CD4+ T cells is found predominantly on cells that also express CXCR3, these data implicate CXCL10 and CXCL11 in the recruitment of susceptible T cells to HIV-1-infected lymph nodes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. This recruitment might enhance the sequestration of T cells in infected lymphoid organs and the spread of infection between cells, contributing to the immunopathology of AIDS.
