Lysis of cells infected with HIV-1 by human lymphocytes targeted with monoclonal antibody heteroconjugates.

The present study was undertaken to determine whether human PBL can be specifically focused to lyse cells infected with HIV-1 by mAb heteroconjugates that can bridge target and effector cells. A mAb directed against the central portion of HIV-1 glycoprotein gp110 was chemically cross-linked to a mAb directed against the CD3/TCR complex or to a mAb directed against the CD16 Fc gamma-R expressed on large granular lymphocytes (LGL). HIV-1-infected cells, but not uninfected cells, were found to be lysed to a greater extent by PBL in the presence of the gp110 X CD3 or the gp110 X CD16 antibody heteroconjugate than in the presence of the single antibodies or a mixture of the mAb comprising the heteroconjugates. Pretreatment of PBL with anti-CD3 or IL-2 augments their ability to lyse HIV-1-infected cells in the presence of the heteroconjugates. Lysis by anti-CD3-activated PBL in the presence of the gp110 X CD3 heteroconjugate was found to be mediated by CD8+-enriched T cells, whereas lysis by IL-2-treated PBL in the presence of the gp110 X CD16 heteroconjugate is mediated by PBL enriched for CD16+ cells, which are primarily LGL. Furthermore, PBL from asymptomatic, HIV-1-infected seropositive donors were found to be functional in lysing HIV-1-infected cells in the presence of the antibody heteroconjugates. Such antibody heteroconjugates, which can target T cells or LGL to lyse HIV-1-infected cells, may be of prophylactic or therapeutic value in HIV-1-infected individuals.
