The CC chemokine macrophage inflammatory protein 1 (MIP-1 ),
has been shown to be a chemoattractant preferentially activating CD4+ CD45RA+ T lymphocytes. Further
analysis of chemokine action on lymphocytic cells has shown the potent
migration-promoting capacity of MIP-1 on human thymocytes. The
responding cells were the CD4+ and CD8+
single-positive (SP), as well as the CD4+
CD8+ double-positive (DP) populations, with little if any
migratory activity on the double-negative (DN) population. The
activation of thymocytes by MIP-1 appeared to be a direct,
receptor-mediated event as evidenced by the rapid mobilization of
intracellular calcium, increase in proteins phosphorylated on tyrosine,
and activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Radioligand binding analyses showed specific and displaceable binding
of MIP-1 to thymocytes with a Kd of approximately 1 nmol/L, a
profile that was comparable with MIP-1 binding to CCR-5-transfected NIH 3T3 cells. In addition, CCR-5 mRNA was detected in total thymocyte populations indicating that activation of thymocytes by MIP-1 may
occur through binding to CCR-5. Further dissection of the subpopulations showed that only the DP and CD8+ SP
populations expressed CCR-5 and expression data on these two populations was confirmed using anti-CCR-5 monoclonal antibody. These
data may be suggestive of a role for MIP-1 in human thymocyte activation, and show a potential route for HIV infectivity in the
developing immune system.
