摘要: Development of an effective vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) will require knowledge the immune responses that correlate with protection. During acute phase HIV infection host appear to control viral replication. It is thought virus-specific cellular immunity intimately involved in this control. We have developed a model system measure entire T cell response and evolution face onslaught rhesus macaques during molecularly cloned simian (SIV). used intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from animals stimulated peptides spanning protein sequence SIV determine which were recognized by CD8 CD4 positive cells. Furthermore, we sequenced infection. This approach has proved highly for measuring SIV-infected might facilitate definition HIV-infected humans phase.
