Summary: Activated-to-memory transitioning CD4+ T cells display elevated expression of the HIV-1 co-receptor CCR5 and are more prone to HIV-1 latent infection. Here, we show that p53-regulated miRNA-103 downmodulates CCR5 levels in CD4+ T lymphocytes. We reveal that miRNA-103 mimics, as well as Nutlin-3, an inhibitor of Mdm2-mediated p53 degradation, decrease CCR5-dependent HIV-1 infection. Using a dual-reporter virus, we subsequently validate that in transitioning CD4+ T cells, Nutlin-3 treatment decreases the frequency of both productively and latently infected cells via upregulation of miRNA-103. Importantly, we provide evidence that CD4+ T cells from HIV-1 elite controllers express less CCR5 than those from antiretroviral therapy-naïve progressors, an effect linked to a significant increase in miRNA-103 levels. By contributing to the control of CCR5 expression in CD4+ T cells, miRNA-103 is likely to play a key role in countering the establishment of latent HIV-1 reservoirs in vivo. |
