AIDS research and human retroviruses

Lymphocyte activation gene-3 expression defines a discrete subset of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells that is associated with lower viral load.

Targeting of conserved gag-epitopes in early HIV infection is associated with lower plasma viral load and slower CD4(+) T cell depletion.

HIV-specific TGF-beta-positive CD4+ T cells do not express regulatory surface markers and are regulated by CTLA-4.

HIV subtypes induce distinct profiles of HIV-specific CD8(+) T cell responses.

Profile of immunologic recovery in HIV-infected Ugandan adults after antiretroviral therapy.
