Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: NK cells have anti-HIV activity mediated through killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). The current prospective cohort study evaluated whether variation in KIR genes is associated with HIV infection in discordant couples (DCs), where one spouse remains seronegative (HSN) despite repeated exposure to the HIV. METHODS: KIR was genotyped using PCR SSP. Viral load and CD4 counts were estimated...
