Abstract Background C‐C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is a major coreceptor for Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) cell entry; however, its role in brain pathogenesis is largely understudied. Thus, we sought to examine cell type‐specific protein expression of CCR5 during SIV infection of the brain. Methods We examined occipital cortical tissue from uninfected rhesus macaques and SIV‐infected animals with or without encephalitis using immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence microscopy to determine the number and distribution of CCR5‐positive cells. Results An increase in the number of CCR5+ cells in the brain of SIV‐infected animals with encephalitis was accounted for by increased CD3+CD8+ cells expressing CCR5, but not by increased CCR5+ microglia or perivascular macrophages (PVMs), and a concurrent decrease in the percentage of CCR5+ PVMs was observed. Levels of CCR5 and SIV Gag p28 protein expression were examined on a per‐cell basis, and a significant, negative relationship was established indicating decreased CCR5 expression in productively infected cells. While investigating the endocytosis‐mediated CCR5 internalization as a mechanism for CCR5 downregulation, we found that phospho‐ERK1/2, an indicator of clathrin‐mediated endocytosis, was colocalized with infected PVMs and that macrophages from infected animals showed significantly increased expression of clathrin heavy chain 1. Conclusions These findings show a shift in CCR5‐positive cell types in the brain during SIV pathogenesis with an increase in the number of CCR5+ CD8 T cells, and downregulated CCR5 expression on infected PVMs, likely through ERK1/2‐driven, clathrin‐mediated endocytosis. |
