IL-27 Inhibits HIV-1 Infection in Human Macrophages by Down-regulating Host Factor SPTBN1 during Monocyte to Macrophage Differentiation

The susceptibility of macrophages to HIV-1 infection is modulated during monocyte differentiation. IL-27 is an anti-HIV cytokine that also modulates monocyte activation. Here, we present new evidence that IL-27 promotes monocyte differentiation into macrophages that are non-permissive for HIV-1 infection.
