The vaginal microbiota influences sexual transmission of human immunodeficiency
virus type 1 (HIV-1). Colonization of the vaginal tract is normally dominated by
Lactobacillus species. Both Lactobacillus and Enterococcus faecalis may secrete
reutericyclin, which inhibits the growth of a variety of pathogenic bacteria.
Increasing evidence suggests a potential therapeutic role for an analogue of
reutericyclin, glycerol monolaurate (GML), against microbial pathogens. Previous
studies using a macaque vaginal simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) transmission
model demonstrated that GML reduces transmission and alters immune responses to
infection in vitro Previous studies showed that structural analogues of GML
negatively impact other enveloped viruses. We sought to expand understanding of
how GML inhibits HIV-1 and other enveloped viruses and show that GML restricts
HIV-1 entry post-CD4 engagement at the step of coreceptor binding. Further, HIV-1
and yellow fever virus (YFV) particles were more sensitive to GML interference
than particles "matured" by proteolytic processing. We show that
high-pressure-liquid-chromatography (HPLC)-purified reutericyclin and
reutericyclin secreted by Lactobacillus inhibit HIV-1. These data emphasize the
importance and protective nature of the normal vaginal flora during viral
infections and provide insights into the antiviral mechanism of GML during HIV-1
infection and, more broadly, to other enveloped viruses.IMPORTANCE A total of 340
million sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are acquired each year.
Antimicrobial agents that target multiple infectious pathogens are ideal
candidates to reduce the number of newly acquired STIs. The antimicrobial and
immunoregulatory properties of GML make it an excellent candidate to fit this
critical need. Previous studies established the safety profile and antibacterial
activity of GML against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. GML
protected against high-dose SIV infection and reduced inflammation, which can
exacerbate disease, during infection. We found that GML inhibits HIV-1 and other
human-pathogenic viruses (yellow fever virus, mumps virus, and Zika virus),
broadening its antimicrobial range. Because GML targets diverse infectious
pathogens, GML may be an effective agent against the broad range of sexually
transmitted pathogens. Further, our data show that reutericyclin, a GML analog
expressed by some lactobacillus species, also inhibits HIV-1 replication and thus
may contribute to the protective effect of Lactobacillus in HIV-1 transmission.
