Parenteral administration of a mouse anti-human CD8 monoclonal antibody (MAb) to rhesus macaques resulted in a transient depletion of CD8(+) cells in both the peripheral blood and lymphoid tissues. When administered during primary chimeric simian/human immunodeficiency virus infections, the CD8 MAb caused marked elevations of plasma and cell-associated virus levels in both the peripheral blood and lymphoid tissues and led to prolonged depletion of CD4 cells. Taken together, these results directly demonstrate that CD8(+) T lymphocytes are actively involved in controlling the acute phase of primate lentivirus infections.
