英文摘要
The AIDS pandemic continues unchecked, and the prospect of an effective vaccine provides the best hope
for HIV prevention. Our efforts to develop a protective vaccine have been hampered by the fact that we still
do not understand correlates of immunity to HIV-1. Ongoing vaccine trials promise to provide insight into
whether the immune responses that are involved in controlling HIV-1 replication during chronic infection can
also play a role in mediating protection from new infection with HIV-1. Recent reports of HIV-1
superinfection (also called re-infection, defined as infection by a second virus after the first virus is already
established in the individual), suggest that the immune responses generated during natural infection do not
necessarily induce protective immunity. Thus, identifying potential immune deficits in superinfected
individuals will be important for vaccine design. Our lab has recently identified several cases of HIV-1
superinfection among a cohort of high-risk women in Mombasa, Kenya. We hypothesize that deficits in
both humoral and cellular immunity to HIV-1 contribute to the ability of a second viral strain to establish
infection. The aims of this proposal are to characterize the humoral and cellular immune responses to HIV-1
in superinfected individuals, and to compare these responses to those of women who have not become
superinfected. To analyze the humoral immune responses, we will first generate a panel of full length,
functional envelope clones from initially infecting and superinfecting strains. We will use these envelopes to
develop a panel of viruses with which we can assess the potency and the breadth of the neutralizing
antibody responses in superinfected women and in women who do not show evidence of superinfection. We
aim to identify correlates of cellular immunity using multiparameter flow cytometry and multiplex cytokine
assessment following stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with HIV-1 and non-HIV-1 antigens.
We will assess whether there are deficits or changes in cytokine production, cytolysis, and proliferative
capacity among CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in superinfected women. Analyses of the humoral and cellular
immune responses of women who have become superinfected will aid in defining correlates of both
protective and failed immunity to HIV; such advances will provide key insights to incorporate into future
vaccine design.
