Abstract: In regions of the world such as Eastern Europe and South-East Asia, the HIV pandemic is being driven by the spread of HIV within drug-abusing populations. As HIV infected individuals live longer with the success of CART, neurological complications are emerging as a significant health issue, particularly among HIV-infected drug abusers. HIV infected individuals who abuse methamphetamine and cocaine show a significant increase in the incidence and severity of neuropathology and in the development of HIV-associated neurological disorders (HAND). The mechanism(s) leading to the acceleration HAND remain unclear; however, both cocaine and methamphetamine act by increasing in extracellular levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) within the central nervous system (CNS). Our findings demonstrate that dopamine increases HIV replication in primary human macrophages, which are the primary target for HIV infection in the CNS. Our research showed that this increase in macrophage HIV replication is due, at least in part, to the infection of greater numbers of macrophages through the activation of a D2-like dopamine receptor. Additionally, studies in simian immunodeficiency virus infected rhesus macaques showed that increased extracellular dopamine enhances intracerebral HIV replication and exacerbates central nervous system pathology. Together, these studies indicate that the effects of dopamine on HIV infection of macrophages could be a common mechanism by which drug abuse exacerbates the development of HAND. Macrophages are the primary targets and sources of HIV in the CNS, as well as a major immune responder and a major source of cytokines and chemokines. Cytokines and chemokines increase neuroinflammation and mediate the recruitment of uninfected macrophages to sites of inflammation, enabling the virus to spread to uninfected macrophage populations. Our data show that dopamine not only increases HIV replication in macrophages, but it activates dopamine receptor mediated signaling, modulates activation of chemotatic proteins and alters cytokine production. These data suggest that drug-induced increases in dopamine would not only increase the extent of HIV infection in the CNS, but could also enhance the spread of HIV to uninfected macrophages and alter the macrophage response to infection. To characterize the mechanism(s) by which dopamine increases HIV infection in macrophages and alters macrophage immune function, we will define dopamine mediated changes in the HIV replication cycle in macrophages, examine alterations in macrophage chemotaxis and production of inflammatory cytokines/chemokines, and characterize the DR signaling pathways in macrophages mediating these functions. We hypothesize that dopamine increases HIV infection in macrophages and alters macrophage functions through activation of dopamine receptors and transporter, contributing to the exacerbated the development of HAND in HIV infected drug abusers.

摘要： 在东欧和东南亚等世界区域，艾滋病毒流行是由艾滋病毒在吸毒人群中的传播推动的。随着艾滋病毒感染者在CART的成功中存活时间更长，神经并发症正在成为一个重大的健康问题，特别是在艾滋病毒感染的吸毒者中。滥用甲基苯丙胺和可卡因的艾滋病毒感染者，其神经病理的发生率和严重程度以及与艾滋病毒相关的神经性疾病(HAND)的发生率和严重程度显著增加。导致手部加速的机制(S)尚不清楚；然而，可卡因和甲基苯丙胺都是通过增加中枢神经系统(CNS)内神经递质多巴胺(DA)的细胞外水平来发挥作用的。我们的发现表明，多巴胺增加了原代人类巨噬细胞中艾滋病毒的复制，而巨噬细胞是中枢神经系统艾滋病毒感染的主要靶点。我们的研究表明，巨噬细胞HIV复制的增加，至少部分是由于更多的巨噬细胞通过激活D2样多巴胺受体而感染。此外，对感染了猴免疫缺陷病毒的恒河猴的研究表明， 细胞外多巴胺增强脑内艾滋病毒复制，并加剧中枢神经系统的病理。总之，这些研究表明，多巴胺对巨噬细胞感染艾滋病毒的影响可能是药物滥用加剧手发育的常见机制。巨噬细胞是中枢神经系统中HIV的主要靶点和来源，也是主要的免疫反应者和细胞因子和趋化因子的主要来源。细胞因子和趋化因子增加了神经炎症，并介导未感染的巨噬细胞向炎症部位募集，使病毒能够传播到未感染的巨噬细胞群。我们的数据显示，多巴胺不仅增加了巨噬细胞中艾滋病毒的复制，而且 它激活多巴胺受体介导的信号转导，调节趋化蛋白的激活，改变细胞因子的产生。这些数据表明，药物诱导的多巴胺增加不仅会增加HIV在中枢神经系统的感染程度，还可能增加HIV向未感染的巨噬细胞的传播，并改变巨噬细胞对感染的反应。为了阐明多巴胺增加巨噬细胞内艾滋病毒感染和改变巨噬细胞免疫功能的机制(S)，我们将定义多巴胺介导的巨噬细胞内艾滋病毒复制周期的变化，检测巨噬细胞趋化能力和炎性细胞因子/趋化因子产生的变化，并表征巨噬细胞中介导这些功能的DR信号通路。我们假设，多巴胺通过激活多巴胺受体和转运蛋白，增加了巨噬细胞中HIV的感染，改变了巨噬细胞的功能，从而加剧了HIV感染的吸毒者的手部发育。
