“…This control is the result of many elements and the activity of different cell types, such as CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, natural killers (NKs), dendritic cells (DCs), different types of antibodies (Abs), cell restrictions factors, human leucocyte antigens (HLAs) genotypes and/or host factors like CCR5 protective mutations [ 26 , 44 , 45 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 56 , 61 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 ], as summarized in Figure 1 . In addition, HLA-B genotypes HLA-B57/B58 or -B27 [ 63 ], HLA-B*35:01 [ 74 , 75 ] and HLA-C [ 26 , 76 , 77 ], such as the HLA-C*03:02 1 in an African Pediatric Population [ 78 ], are linked with the control of HIV-1 infection ( Figure 1 , non-progressors bottom box). In some LTNP individuals [ 79 ] that harbor viruses with low replication capacity [ 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 ], the HIV-1 LTNP phenotype has been associated with the presence of potent and broad cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses [ 66 , 84 ] ( Figure 1 , non-progressors bottom box) and active NK cells.…”
