Gag-Specific CD8 T-Cell Proliferation Is Associated With Higher Peripheral Blood Levels of Transforming Growth Factor-β and Gut-Homing T Cells in Youths Perinatally Infected With Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1: The ANRS-EP38-IMMIP Study
Abstract:Background.Gag-specific T lymphocytes play a key role in the control of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication. Their restoration will be important for future reservoir targeting strategies. In this study, we aimed to identify immune correlates of Gag-specific CD8 T-cell proliferation in youths with perinatally acquired HIV-1 infection.Methods.The ANRS-EP38-IMMIP study included youths of 15 to 24 years of age. Fifty-three were taking combination anti-retroviral therapy and aviremic at the time of the s… Show more
