Some individuals infected with only R5 strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 progress to AIDS as quickly as individuals harboring X4 strains. We determined that three R5 viruses were much less pathogenic than an X4 virus in SCID-hu Thy/Liv mice, suggesting that R5 virus-mediated rapid disease progression is associated with host, not viral, factors.
一些仅感染1型人类免疫缺陷病毒R5毒株的个体进展为艾滋病的速度与感染X4毒株的个体一样快。我们确定,在SCID-hu Thy/Liv小鼠中,三种R5病毒的致病性远低于一种X4病毒,这表明R5病毒介导的疾病快速进展与宿主因素而非病毒因素有关。
