HIV-1 glycoprotein (gp) 120 from different clades is a potent stimulus for IL-4 and IL-13 release from basophils purified from healthy individuals seronegative for Abs to HIV-1 and HIV-2. IL-4 mRNA, constitutively present in basophils, was increased after stimulation by gp120 and was inhibited cyclosporin A and tacrolimus. IL-4 and IL-13 secretion from basophils activated by gp120 was not correlated. There was a correlation between the maximum gp120- and anti-IgE-induced IL-4 release from basophils. The average t1/2 gp120-induced IL-4 release was lower than for IL-13 release. Basophils from which IgE had been dissociated by brief exposure to lactic acid no longer released IL-4 in response to gp120 or to anti-IgE. The response to a mAb cross-linking the alpha-chain of high-affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI) was unaffected by this treatment. Three human VH3+ monoclonal IgM inhibited gp120-induced secretion of IL-4 from basophils. In contrast, VH6+ monoclonal IgM did not inhibit the release of IL-4 induced by gp120. Synthetic peptides distant from the NH2 and COOH termini of gp120MN inhibited the activating property of gp120MN. These results indicate that gp120, which acts as a viral superantigen, interacts with the VH3 region of IgE to induce the release of IL-4 and IL-13 from human Fc epsilon RI+ cells.
