Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)–induced monocyte-derived macrophages (GM-M{Phi}) are permissive to M-tropic HIV-1 entry, but inhibit viral replication at posttranscriptional and translational levels, whereas M-CSF-induced macrophages (M-M{Phi}) produce a large amount of HIV-1. M-M{Phi} express a high level of Hck and a large isoform of C/EBPß, and HIV-1 infection increases the expression of Hck but not of C/EBPß. GM-M{Phi} express a high level of C/EBPß and a low level of Hck, and HIV-1 infection drastically increases the expression of a short isoform of C/EBPß but decreases that of Hck.

Treatment of M-M{Phi} with antisense oligonucleotide for Hck (AS-Hck) not only suppresses the expression of Hck, but also stimulates the induction of the short isoform of C/EBPß and inhibits the viral replication. Treatment of GM-M{Phi} with a moderate amount of AS-C/EBPß not only inhibits the expression of the small isoform of C/EBPß preferentially, but also stimulates the induction of Hck and stimulates the virus production at a high rate. These results suggest that CSF-induced and HIV-1–mediated distinct regulation of Hck and small isoform of C/EBPß represent the heterogeneous susceptibility of tissue M{Phi} to HIV-1 infection, and the regulation of Hck and C/EBPß are closely related and these two molecules affect one another.

Key Words: macrophages • HIV-1 • Hck • C/EBPß • CSF
