The first use of lentiviral vectors in humans involved transduction of mature T-cells with an human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–derivedenvantisense (envAS) vector to protect cells from HIV infection. In that study, only a minority of the patient T-cell population could be gene-modified, raising the question of whether the altered cells could affect replicating HIV populations. We investigated this using humanized NOD/SCID IL-2Rγnull(hNSG) mice reconstituted with ~4–11%envAS-modified human T-cells. Mice were challenged with HIV-1NL4-3, which has anenvperfectly complementary toenvAS, or with HIV-1BaL, which has a divergentenv. No differences were seen in viral titer between mice that receivedenvAS-modified cells and control mice that did not. Using 454/Roche pyrosequencing, we analyzed the mutational spectrum in HIV populations in serum—from 33 mice we recovered 84,074 total reads comprising 31,290 unique sequence variants. We found enrichment of A-to-G transitions and deletions inenvAS-treated mice, paralleling a previous tissue culture study where most target cells containedenvAS, even though minority of cells wereenvAS-modified here. Unexpectedly, this enrichment was only detected after the challenge with HIV-1BaL, where the viral genome would form an imperfect duplex withenvAS, and not HIV-1NL4-3, where a perfectly matched duplex would form.
