Initial HIV-1 Antigen-Specific CD8 + T Cells in Acute HIV-1 Infection Inhibit Transmitted/Founder Virus Replication
19 Apr 2012
Abstract excerpt
CD8-mediated virus inhibition can be detected in HIV-1-positive subjects who naturally control virus replication. Characterizing the inhibitory function of CD8(+) T cells during acute HIV-1 infection (AHI) can elucidate the nature of the CD8(+) responses that can be rapidly elicited and that contribute to virus control. We examined the timing and HIV-1 antigen specificity of antiviral CD8(+) T cells during AHI....
