Title: Michael Imbeault, Dave Blanger, Michel Ouellet,


1
  • Michael Imbeault, Dave Bélanger, Michel Ouellet,
  • Geneviève Martin, Michel Tremblay
  • Centre de Recherche en Infectiologie, Ville de
    Québec, Canada
  • Université Laval

2
  • Polyclonal B cell activation
  • Hypergammaglobulinemia
  • Anergy
  • Sensitivity to apoptosis

3
  • Efficient incorporation of membrane-bound host
    molecules during budding
  • ICAM-1
  • HLA-DR
  • CD40L
  • and many others
  • These molecules are functional

4
  • Could HIV-1 particles bearing CD40L activate B
    cells?

5
  • Morphological change
  • Proliferation
  • NF-kB activation
  • Class switch recombination (CSR)
  • IgM gt IgD, IgG, IgE, IgA

6
  • Primary B cells isolated from tonsils using
    negative magnetic selection
  • Supplemented in IL-4 Il-10
  • Lots of cells needed for microarray experiments
  • 50-100 millions of cells
  • More physiologically relevant than cell lines or
    peripheral B cells

  • Efficient NF-kB translocation to the nucleus
  • NL4.3/CD40L is comparable to PMA/Iono and
    anti-CD40 (not shown)

Martin G al, J Virol, 2007
10
  • Gene expression analysis

11

12
  • Very similar genetic expression profiles between
    HIV-1/CD40L and G28.5 at both time points
  • Most of the genes are associated to B cell
    activation
  • Not much effect due to HIV alone (not shown)

NL4-3 CD40L
Bal CD40L
Anti CD40

Bal
NL4-3
ICAM-1
Actin
Could be in part responsible for cellular
aggregation
22
  • Lymphotoxin A (TNF-b)
  • Boosts proliferation of B cells
  • Its upregulation has been characterized in
    transient hypergammaglobulinemia
  • (Kowalczyk D, J Allergy Clin Immunol. 1997)

  • Exposure of B cells to HIV-1 bearing CD40L
    results in
  • Efficient polyclonal activation
  • Isotype class switching
  • Secretion of cytokines / chemokines
  • Possible implications in B cells disorders seen
    in some patients
