Rare HIV-1-infected individuals are able to control viral replication without antiretroviral therapy. In this issue of Immunity, Migueles et al. (2008) show that HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells from these individuals effectively suppress viral replication by granzyme B-mediated killing of target cells.
少数感染了HIV-1的个体在不接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的情况下能够控制病毒复制。在本期《免疫》杂志中,米盖莱斯等人(2008年)表明,来自这些个体的HIV-1特异性CD8 + T细胞通过颗粒酶B介导的靶细胞杀伤有效地抑制病毒复制。
