Molecular Analyses Define Vα7.2-Jα33+ MAIT Cell Depletion in HIV Infection
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are an abundant antibacterial innate-like lymphocyte population. There are conflicting reports as to their fate in HIV infection. The objective of this study was to determine whether MAIT cells are truly depleted in HIV infection. In this case-control study of HIV-positive patients and healthy controls, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction...

متن کاملNKT cell depletion in humans during early HIV infection.
Natural killer T (NKT) cells bridge across innate and adaptive immune responses and have an important role in chronic viral infections such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). NKT cells are depleted during chronic HIV infection, but the timing, drivers and implications of this NKT cell depletion are poorly understood. We studied human peripheral blood NKT cell levels, phenotype and function ...
متن کاملTime Scales of CD4+ T Cell Depletion in HIV Infection
T he hallmark of HIV infection is the depletion of CD4 + T cells in peripheral blood, lymphoid organs, and mucosal tissues [1]. Since CD4 + T cells play an essential role in immune defenses against almost all pathogens, HIV-positive patients are subject to a variety of opportunistic infections. Despite decades of intensive research, the mechanisms underlying CD4 + T cell depletion remain widely...
متن کاملT-cell Depletion in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) - 1 Infection
In this review, immune response and possible causes of depletion of CD4 + T-cell counts in patients with human immunodeficiency (HIV)-1 infection, have been documented. HIV has been recognized as a global problem; however, the developing countries are the most affected by epidemic diseases. Countries in the sub-Saharan Africa seem to bear the bulk of the HIV burden among the developing countrie...
