متن کاملThe role of race and gender in T cell responses in children perinatally infected with HIV-1.
Understanding the immunologic mechanisms that can control the progression of HIV disease is paramount for the development of vaccines or of new strategies for immunotherapy. Whether infection occurs perinatally, sexually, or parenterally, disease ultimately develops in all but a very few individuals, although the time to disease is quite variable. This tremendous variability in disease progress...
متن کاملCCR5 genotypes and progression to HIV disease in perinatally infected children.
The CCR5 molecule, a chemokine receptor, is the most important co-receptor for macrophage-tropic HIV-1. A 32-bp deletion in the gene encoding CCR5 (CCR5-del32) confers nearly complete resistance to HIV-1 infection in homozygotes, and slows the rate of progression to AIDS in heterozygous adults. The aim of this study was to describe the CCR5 genotypes and the characteristics of HIV disease progr...
متن کاملExpression of APOBEC3G/3F and G-to-A Hypermutation Levels in HIV-1-Infected Children with Different Profiles of Disease Progression
OBJECTIVE Increasing evidence has accumulated showing the role of APOBEC3G (A3G) and 3F (A3F) in the control of HIV-1 replication and disease progression in humans. However, very few studies have been conducted in HIV-infected children. Here, we analyzed the levels of A3G and A3F expression and induced G-to-A hypermutation in a group of children with distinct profiles of disease progression. ...
