Kinetics of HIV-Specific CTL Responses Plays a Minimal Role in Determining HIV Escape Dynamics
2017-09-27
Abstract excerpt
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) have been suggested to play an important role in controlling human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1 or simply HIV) infection. HIV, due to its high mutation rate, can evade recognition of T cell responses by generating escape variants that can not be recognized by HIV-specific CTLs. Although HIV escape from CTL responses has been well documented, factors contributing to the timing and th...
