Engagement of monocytic cell membrane proteins was shown to enhance human immunodefi­ ciency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication in monocytic cells. Cross-linking of CD18, CDlla, or CD45 by immobilized produced up to an ll-fold enhancement of HIV-1 release in the OM10.1 monocytic cell line in a tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a)-dependent manner. In addition, adhesion Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jid/article/174/1/54/959003 by guest on 29 September 2021 ofOM10.1 cells to immobilized intercellular adhesion molecule-I (ligand for CDl8/CDlla) induced similar TNF-a-dependent enhancement of HIV-l replication. After phenotypic differentiation of OMlO.l cells, engagement of cell membrane proteins CD18, CD1la, CD44, CD45, or CD58 by soluble antibodies enhanced HIV-1 replication in a TNF-a-dependent manner. These data suggest that cross-linkage of monocytic cell membrane proteins during cell-cell interaction and specifically during antigen presentation to CD4 T cells may enhance HIV-1 replication, facilitating infection of adjacent cells.
