Insufficient Production and Tissue Delivery of CD4+Memory T Cells in Rapidly Progressive Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

Abstract: The mechanisms linking human immunodeficiency virus replication to the progressive immunodeficiency of acquired immune deficiency syndrome are controversial, particularly the relative contribution of CD4+ T cell destruction. Here, we used the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) model to investigate the relationship between systemic CD4+ T cell dynamics and rapid disease progression. Of 18 rhesus macaques (RMs) infected with CCR5-tropic SIVmac239 (n = 14) or CXCR4-tropic SIVmac155T3 (n = 4), 4 of the former gro… Show more

“…[175][176][177] Moreover, CD4 þ T cells expressing CCR5 decreases at the peak of viral replication in both pathogenic and nonpathogenic SIV-infected monkeys. 166,[178][179][180] Altogether, these observations may indicate that depletion of CCR5 þ CD4 þ T cells is an important event but likely is not the only factor involved in AIDS pathogenesis. These observations also raise questions about the role of alternative chemokine receptors in the immunopathogenesis of AIDS.…”

“…During the chronic phase of HIV or SIV infection, a homeostatic response attempts to compensate for the ongoing depletion of CD4 + T cells in the gut [22]. If the gut indeed contains the majority of CD4 + T cells, it is easy to imagine that the magnitude of the homeostatic response would be too large to be sustained over long periods of time [23].…”

“…BrdU has been used for decades in mice [11,12], and more recently in monkeys [13][14][15]. Because of potential problems with toxicity, it has been used infrequently in humans [16][17][18][19][20], and only over short-term periods.…”
