Abstract

“Elite controllers” are individuals that durably control human immunodeficiency virus or simian immunodeficiency virus replication without therapeutic intervention. The study of these rare individuals may facilitate the definition of a successful immune response to immunodeficiency viruses. Here we describe six Indian-origin rhesus macaques that have controlled replication of the pathogenic virus SIVmac239 for 1 to 5 years. To determine which lymphocyte populations were responsible for this control, we transiently depleted the animals’ CD8+cells in vivo. This treatment resulted in 100- to 10,000-fold increases in viremia. When the CD8+cells returned, control was reestablished and the levels of small subsets of previously subdominant CD8+T cells expanded up to 2,500-fold above predepletion levels. This wave of CD8+T cells was accompanied by robust Gag-specific CD4 responses. In contrast, CD8+NK cell frequencies changed no more than threefold. Together, our data suggest that CD8+T cells targeting a small number of epitopes, along with broad CD4+T-cell responses, can successfully control the replication of the AIDS virus. It is likely that subdominant CD8+T-cell populations play a key role in maintaining this control.

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.
