The effect of cyclosporine A (CyA) on the ability of the human
immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to infect the H-9 T-cell leukemic
line, as well as interleukin-2 (IL-2)-grown human peripheral blood- derived
lymphocytes, has been studied. Pretreatment of H-9 cells and human
lymphocytes with CyA over 24 hours completely prevented viral infection
over a 21-day period, whereas the addition of drug at two hours
postinfection with HIV-1 had a significant inhibitory effect on viral
replication and expression of the virus-specific antigens p17 and p24.
However, if CyA was added at later times to these lymphocytic cells, this
inhibitory effect was lost. Indeed, the removal of CyA from cultures that
had been treated from two hours after infection led to the rapid production
of progeny virus. HIV-1 was able to infect peripheral blood lymphocytes
obtained from each of four kidney allograft recipients on long-term CyA
antirejection therapy, as long as drug was not included in the culture
medium. In addition, we asked what effect pretreatment with CyA of cells of
the U-937 monocytic line and primary cultures of human
monocytes/macrophages might have on infection by HIV-1. CyA had no
demonstrable effect on the ability of HIV-1 to infect cells of either type.
