Dual Infection of the Central Nervous System by AIDS Viruses with Distinct Cellular Tropisms

Abstract: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the causative agent of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). A large number of AIDS patients show evidence of neurologic involvement, known as AIDS-related subacute encephalopathy, which has been correlated with the presence of HIV in the brain. In this study, two genetically distinct but related viruses were isolated from one patient from two different sources in the central nervous system: brain tissue and cerebrospinal fluid. Both viruses were found to replica… Show more

“…Different strains vary in infectivity for primary macrophages (m~), rate of replication and syncytium-forming capacity and the evolution of these properties probably influences the pathogenesis of HIV infection (Asjo et al, 1986;Fenyo et al, 1988;Collman et al, 1989;Tersmette et al, 1989;Schuitemaker et al, 1991). Recent evidence suggests that m~b tropism is a fundamental property of HIV, since m~b-tropic strains of HIV are detectable in the peripheral blood at all stages of disease (Gendelman et al, , 1990Massari et al, 1990;Schuitemaker et al, 1991) and viruses isolated from tissue sites appear to possess higher m~b tropism than those from the peripheral blood (Gartner et al, 1986;Koyanagi et al, 1987;Cheng-Mayer et al, 1989;Gendelman et al, 1990;Schuitemaker et al, 1992). However, the relationship between m~b tropism in vitro and the pathogenesis of HIV infection remains unclear.…”
