High viremia in HIV-1 subtype C infection and spread of the epidemic.
TO THE EDITOR—We read with interest the article by Campbell et al that described viral loads in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) subtype C infection [1]. These studies show that the C subtype and non-C subtypes do not differ significantly in terms of their viral set points following seroconversion. These observations contradict the findings of Novitsky et al [2], who showed that a su...
متن کاملThe global spread of HIV-1 subtype B epidemic
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) was discovered in the early 1980s when the virus had already established a pandemic. For at least three decades the epidemic in the Western World has been dominated by subtype B infections, as part of a sub-epidemic that traveled from Africa through Haiti to United States. However, the pattern of the subsequent spread still remains poorly understood. ...
متن کاملHIV-1 Subtype C Phylodynamics in the Global Epidemic
The diversity of HIV-1 and its propensity to generate escape mutants present fundamental challenges to control efforts, including HIV vaccine design. Intra-host diversification of HIV is determined by immune responses elicited by an HIV-infected individual over the course of the infection. Complex and dynamic patterns of transmission of HIV lead to an even more complex population viral diversit...
متن کاملPhylodynamics of HIV-1 Subtype C Epidemic in East Africa
The HIV-1 subtype C accounts for an important fraction of HIV infections in east Africa, but little is known about the genetic characteristics and evolutionary history of this epidemic. Here we reconstruct the origin and spatiotemporal dynamics of the major HIV-1 subtype C clades circulating in east Africa. A large number (n = 1,981) of subtype C pol sequences were retrieved from public databas...
