Phenotypic characterization of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells during early and chronic infant HIV-1 infection.

Phenotypic characterization of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells during early and chronic infant HIV-1 infection.

Although CD8(+) T cells play an important role in the containment of adult HIV-1 replication, their role in infant HIV-1 infection is not as well understood. Impaired HIV-specific CD8(+) T cell responses may underlie the persistently high viral loads observed in infants. We examined the frequency an...
