Megjegyzések:	The syncytiotrophoblast (ST) layer of the human placenta has an important role in limiting transplacental viral spread from mother to fetus. Although certain strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) may enter ST cells, the trophoblast does not exhibit permissiveness for HIV-1. The present study tested the possibility that placental macrophages might induce replication of HIV-1 carried in ST cells and, further, that infected ST cells would be capable of transmitting virus into neighboring macrophages. For this purpose, we investigated HIV-1 replication in ST cells grown alone or cocultured with uninfected placental macrophages. The macrophage-tropic Ba-L strain of HIV-1, capable of entering ST cells, was used throughout our studies. We demonstrated that interactions between ST cells and macrophages activated HIV-1 from latency and induced its replication in ST cells. After having become permissive for viral replication, ST cells delivered HIV-1 to the cocultured macrophages, as evidenced by detection of virus-specific antigens in these cells. The stimulatory effect of coculture on HIV-1 gene expression in ST cells was mediated by marked tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) release from macrophages, an effect caused by contact between the different placental cells. Results of this study suggest an interactive role for the ST layer and placental macrophages in the dissemination of HIV-1 among placental tissue. Data reported here may also explain why macrophage-tropic HIV-1 strains are transmitted preferentially during pregnancy.
