The persistent inflammation aggravated by a disordered immune response is considered to be the major cause of CD4(+) T cell depletion in lymphoid tissue, which impels the progression of AIDS. Here, we report that heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) works as an innate repressor of HIV-induced inflammation. The activation of HSF1 was found to accompany inflammation during HIV infection. Further research uncovered that HSF1 activation inhibited HIV-induced inflammation. In addition, HSF1 overexpression suppressed the inflammatory response induced by HIV, while HSF1 deficiency exacerbated that inflammation. Mechanistically, HSF1 was found to compete with nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) in the nucleus. Generally, our report highlights that HSF1 is an important host factor in regulating HIV-induced inflammation and may work as a potential target for curing AIDS.
