Foxp3 inhibits HDAC1 activity to modulate gene expression in human T cells
چکیده انگلیسی

We have previously reported that HIV-1 preferentially infects Foxp3+ Treg cells in vitro and in vivo, and Foxp3 enhances the HIV-1 LTR expression through epigenetic mechanisms in T cells. We report here that histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) failed to further enhance HIV gene expression in FoxP3+ T cells. We discovered that Foxp3 inhibited cellular HDAC activity in T cells, and mutations in the forkhead domain that ablate Foxp3 function also abolished its ability to inhibit HDAC. When co-expressed, Foxp3 specifically inhibited the deacetylase activity of HDAC1. We further showed that Foxp3 was associated with HDAC1, and mutations in the forkhead domain that ablate Foxp3 function in Treg cells also inhibited Foxp3 association with and inhibition of HDAC1. Finally, Foxp3 failed to enhance HIV-1 gene expression in human T cells expressing HDAC1-specific shRNA. We conclude that Foxp3 modulates gene expression in human T cells at least partly by inhibiting HDAC1 activity.
