Abstract

Clinical evidence suggests that cellular immunity is involved in controlling human immunodeficiency virus–1 (HIV-1) replication. An animal model of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)–infected rhesus monkey, was used to show that virus replication is not controlled in monkeys depleted of CD8 + lymphocytes during primary SIV infection. Eliminating CD8 + lymphocytes from monkeys during chronic SIV infection resulted in a rapid and marked increase in viremia that was again suppressed coincident with the reappearance of SIV-specific CD8 + T cells. These results confirm the importance of cell-mediated immunity in controlling HIV-1 infection and support the exploration of vaccination approaches for preventing infection that will elicit these immune responses.

  10. Rhesus monkeys in the primary and chronic SIV infection experiments were administered either the mouse-human chimeric monoclonal antibody to CD8 (cM-T807) or a control chimeric monoclonal antibody specific for respiratory syncytial virus (chimeric 1129; MedImmune Gaithersburg MD). Antibodies were given intravenously at 3 to 5 mg of antibody per kilogram of body weight three times over a 4- or 7-day period. For the primary infection experiment antibody treatments were initiated either 4 days before or 6 days after intravenous inoculation with about 20 animal infectious doses of SIVmac strain 251. Treatments with antibody CD8 resulted in CD8 + lymphocyte depletion during peak SIVmac viremia. In the chronic infection experiment monkeys were administered monoclonal antibodies >9 months after mucosal infection with SIVmac strain 251. All animals were maintained in accordance with the guidelines of the Committee on Animals for the Harvard Medical School and the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (National Research Council National Academic Press Washington DC 1996).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
