    Description: Evidence indicates that cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) may be important in containing the spread of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the infected host. Although the use of recombinant viruses has been proposed as an approach to elicit protective immunity against HIV, the ability of recombinant viral constructs to elicit CD8+ CTL responses in higher primates has never been demonstrated. A live recombinant virus, vaccinia-simian immunodeficiency virus of macaques (SIVmac), was used to determine whether such a genetically restricted, T lymphocyte-mediated antiviral response could be generated in a primate. Vaccinia-SIVmac vaccination elicited an SIVmac Gag-specific, CD8+ CTL response in rhesus monkeys. These CTLs recognized a peptide fragment that spans residues 171 to 195 of the Gag protein. The rhesus monkey major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I gene product restricting this CTL response was defined. Both the vaccinated and SIVmac-infected monkeys that shared this MHC class I gene product developed CTLs with the same Gag epitope specificity. These findings support the use of recombinant virus vaccines for the prevention of HIV infections in humans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shen, L -- Chen, Z W -- Miller, M D -- Stallard, V -- Mazzara, G P -- Panicali, D L -- Letvin, N L -- AI20729/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI26507/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA50139/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Apr 19;252(5004):440-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Harvard Medical School, New England Regional Primate Research Center, Southborough, MA 01772.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1708168" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Vaccine-induced cellular immunity controls virus replication in simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected monkeys only transiently, leading to the question of whether such vaccines for AIDS will be effective. We immunized monkeys with plasmid DNA and replication-defective adenoviral vectors encoding SIV proteins and then challenged them with pathogenic SIV. Although these monkeys demonstrated a reduction in viremia restricted to the early phase of SIV infection, they showed a prolonged survival. This survival was associated with preserved central memory CD4+ T lymphocytes and could be predicted by the magnitude of the vaccine-induced cellular immune response. These immune correlates of vaccine efficacy should guide the evaluation of AIDS vaccines in humans.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2365913/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2365913/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Letvin, Norman L -- Mascola, John R -- Sun, Yue -- Gorgone, Darci A -- Buzby, Adam P -- Xu, Ling -- Yang, Zhi-Yong -- Chakrabarti, Bimal -- Rao, Srinivas S -- Schmitz, Jorn E -- Montefiori, David C -- Barker, Brianne R -- Bookstein, Fred L -- Nabel, Gary J -- Z99 AI999999/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jun 9;312(5779):1530-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vaccine Research Center, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA. nletvin@bidmc.harvard.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16763152" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Understanding why some people establish and maintain effective control of HIV-1 and others do not is a priority in the effort to develop new treatments for HIV/AIDS. Using a whole-genome association strategy, we identified polymorphisms that explain nearly 15% of the variation among individuals in viral load during the asymptomatic set-point period of infection. One of these is found within an endogenous retroviral element and is associated with major histocompatibility allele human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*5701, whereas a second is located near the HLA-C gene. An additional analysis of the time to HIV disease progression implicated two genes, one of which encodes an RNA polymerase I subunit. These findings emphasize the importance of studying human genetic variation as a guide to combating infectious agents.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1991296/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1991296/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fellay, Jacques -- Shianna, Kevin V -- Ge, Dongliang -- Colombo, Sara -- Ledergerber, Bruno -- Weale, Mike -- Zhang, Kunlin -- Gumbs, Curtis -- Castagna, Antonella -- Cossarizza, Andrea -- Cozzi-Lepri, Alessandro -- De Luca, Andrea -- Easterbrook, Philippa -- Francioli, Patrick -- Mallal, Simon -- Martinez-Picado, Javier -- Miro, Jose M -- Obel, Niels -- Smith, Jason P -- Wyniger, Josiane -- Descombes, Patrick -- Antonarakis, Stylianos E -- Letvin, Norman L -- McMichael, Andrew J -- Haynes, Barton F -- Telenti, Amalio -- Goldstein, David B -- G0200585/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_U137884177/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- U19 AI067854/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U19 AI067854-03/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Aug 17;317(5840):944-7.
