Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope protein gp41
mediates viral fusion with human host cells. The peptide segment
T20/DP178, located in the C-terminus of the ectodomain of gp41,
interacts with the N-terminal leucine zipper-like domain on gp41 to
establish the fusogenic conformation of the virus. Synthetic T20/DP178
peptide is highly efficacious in inhibiting HIV-1 infection in vitro by
disrupting the transformation of fusogenic status of viral gp41; thus,
it has been proposed for clinical trial. We report that synthetic
T20/DP178 is a chemoattractant and activator of human peripheral blood
phagocytes but not of T lymphocytes. We further demonstrate that
T20/DP178 specifically activates a seven-transmembrane,
G-protein-coupled phagocyte receptor for N-formylated chemotactic
peptides, formyl peptide receptor (FPR). Moreover,
synthetic T20/DP178 analogs lacking N-terminal amino acids acted as FPR
antagonists. Our results suggest that gp41 peptides regulate phagocyte
function via FPR and identify a novel mechanism by which HIV-1 may
modulate innate immunity.
