Recurrent Signature Patterns in HIV-1 B Clade Envelope Glycoproteins Associated with either Early or Chronic Infections

TL;DR: The signature patterns identified implicate Env expression levels in selection at viral transmission or in early expansion, and suggest that immune evasion patterns that recur in many individuals during chronic infection when antibodies are present can be selected against when the infection is being established prior to the adaptive immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Viral Env Proteins from Acute and Chronic Infections with Subtype C Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Identifies Differences in Glycosylation and CCR5 Utilization and Suggests a New Strategy for Immunogen Design

TL;DR: It is suggested that the occasional absence of glycosylation sites encoded in the conserved regions of env, further reduced in transmitted viruses, could expose specific surface structures on the protein as antibody targets.
Journal Article

Reduced ecto-5'-nucleotidase activity and enhanced OKT10 and HLA-DR expression on CD8 (T suppressor/cytotoxic) lymphocytes in the acquired immune deficiency syndrome: evidence of CD8 cell immaturity.

TL;DR: The data presented here support the hypothesis they are immature, and reduced T cell ecto-5'-NT activity and enhanced expression of OKT10 and HLA-DR antigens on circulating CD8 cells, in conjunction with lack of transferrin receptor-(OKT9) and IL 2 receptor-(Tac) bearing lymphocytes, sustain this latter hypothesis.
