  • Dendritic cell immunoreceptor (DCIR) is a C-type lectin receptor expressed at high levels on dendritic cells (DCs). This surface molecule acts as an attachment factor for HIV-1 on DCs and contributes to trans- and cis-infection pathways. Moreover, DICR is induced by HIV-1 in CD4+ T cells and promotes virus replication in this cell type. Nothing is known hitherto about the DCIR-dependent signaling, which is induced following HIV-1 ligation. First, specific pharmacologic inhibitors were tested on HIV-1 binding/entry and, second, specific antisense oligonucleotides targeted, more specifically kinases and phosphatases, were used. Our results show that SHP-1, SHP-2, Syk, and Src kinases (ie, Src, Fyn, and Hck) as well as PKC-α and MAP kinases (ie, Erk1/2 and p38) are all involved in the DCIR-mediated signal transduction pathway triggered by HIV-1. By mutagenesis and through the use of intracellular phosphorylated peptides, we show as well a pivotal role for the tyrosine and threonine residues of the DCIR immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM). Our data suggest for the first time an involvement of ITIM domain in HIV-1–mediated signaling events and a relationship between phosphorylation events and DCIR function with respect to HIV-1 biology.
