Low CD4 T-cell counts despite low levels of circulating HIV insights from the comparison of HIV-1 infected patients with a discordant response to antiretroviral therapy to patients with untreated advanced HIV-2 disease

Low CD4 T-cell counts despite low levels of circulating HIV : insights from the comparison of HIV-1 infected patients with a discordant response to antiretroviral therapy to patients with untreated advanced HIV-2 disease

A significant proportion of HIV-1+ patients with suppression of viremia under antiretroviral therapy fail to recover CD4(+) T-cell counts (ART-Discordants). Similarly, untreated HIV-2+ patients can also exhibit major CD4 depletion in spite of undetectable viremia. We characterize here the immunologi...
