The effects of Nef molecules on immature dendritic cells (iDCs) were analyzed using recombinant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) with intact nef gene, pseudotyped with vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein, HIVNSV-G/+Nef. When iDCs were infected with HIVNSV-G/+Nef, the surface expression of CD1a, a molecule for presenting glycolipid/lipid antigens, was selectively down-regulated among CD1 molecules (CD1a, -b, -c, and -d) as well as class I MHC. Moreover, the CD1a molecules were also down-modulated and co-localized with DsRed2-tagged-Nef in CD1a-transfected cells. Their co-localization was dependent upon CD 1 a cytoplasmic tail and the CD1 a was redistributed from cell surface to LAMP-1(+) late endosomal/lysosomal compartment. These findings reveal that the HIV-1-Nef interferes with the intracellular trafficking of CD1a, and suggest the involvement of CD1a-restricted immune effectors in the protective immunity against HIV-1 infection, which implicates the feasibility of virus-derived glycolipid/lipid antigens together with epitope peptides for the vaccine development.
