内容説明

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes play a central role in containing the spread of the AIDS virus (HIV) as well as other retroviruses. This publication provides a broad overview of our current understanding of this immune response in the HIV-infected patient. With contributions from major laboratories throughout the world, the effector T lymphocyte response is described in virus-infected humans and also in non-human primates infected with monkey AIDS viruses. The precise molecular events which govern cytotoxic T cell recognition of HIV, the role of these cells in protecting against the progression of AIDS and the contributions of cytotoxic T lymphocytes to clinical manifestations of disease are thoroughly discussed. The functional characterization of these cells as well as their definition in tissues are also described.

目次

  • HIV-1 infections in humans
  • SIV or HIV-2 infection in experimental animals
  • T lymphocyte subpopulation and cytokine expression in tissues.
