The stilbene disulfonic acids 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), 4,4'-diisothiocyanatodihydrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid bound the variable-1 immunoglobulin-like domain of CD4 on JM cells. The interaction blocked the binding of the anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody OKT4A and the envelope glycoprotein gp120 of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1). DIDS inhibited the acute infection of CD4+ cells by HIV-1 with a potency (IC50 approximately 30 microM) similar to that which blocked gp120 binding (IC50 approximately 20 microM) to the cellular antigen. Pretreating uninfected CD4+ C8166 cells with DIDS blocked their fusion with chronically infected gp120+ cells. DIDS covalently and selectively modified lysine 90 of soluble CD4 and abolished the gp120-binding and antiviral properties of the recombinant protein. When added to cells productively infected with HIV-1, DIDS blocked virus growth and cleared cultures of syncytia without inhibiting cellular proliferation. The stilbene disulfonic acids are a novel class of site-specific CD4 antagonists that block multiple CD4-dependent events associated with acute and established HIV-1 infections.
