T-cell lines chronically infected with laboratory adapted, T-cell tropic HIV-1 strains (RF, LAI, CBL-4, and NY5) induced syncytia after cocultivation with primary macrophages. Such fusion-competent strains, however, replicated inefficiently after cell-free infection of macrophage cultures. Evidence based on proviral DNA synthesis, pseudotype penetration, and a V3 loop mutation revealed that cell-free infection was restricted at a prepenetration stage in entry and controlled by envelope sequences. Our results suggest that primary macrophages are sensitive to cell-to-cell but not to virion-to-cell fusion induced by the envelope glycoproteins of several T-cell tropic HIV-1 strains.
