Megjegyzések:The human immunodeficiency viruses type 1 and 2 share a striking genomic resemblance, however, variability in the genetic sequence accounts for the presence of unique accessory genes; such as viral protein x (vpx) in HIV-2. Dual infection with both viruses has long been described in the literature, yet the molecular mechanism of how dually infected patients tend to do better than those who are mono-infected with HIV-1 has not yet been explored. We hypothesized that in addition to extracellular mechanisms, an HIV-2 accessory gene is the culprit, and interference at viral accessory/regulatory protein level is perhaps responsible for the attenuated pathogenicity of HIV-1 observed in dually infected patients. Following simulation of dual infection in cell culture experiments, we found that pre-transduction of cells with HIV-2 significantly protects against HIV-1 transduction. Importantly, we have found that this dampening of HIV-1's infectivity was a result of inter-viral interference carried out by the viral protein X of HIV-2, resulting in a severe hindrance to HIV-1's replication dynamics, influencing both its early- and late-phase of the viral life-cycle. Our findings shed light on potential intracellular interactions between the two viruses, and broaden our understanding of the observed clinical spectrum in dually infected patients, highlighting HIV-2 Vpx as a potential candidate worth exploring in the fight against HIV-1.
