We report here a novel HIV-1 recombinant form (CRF01_AE/B) detected from a comprehensive HIV-1 molecular epidemiologic study among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Jilin province of northeastern China. The near full-length genome (NFLG) analyses showed that the novel HIV-1 recombinant isolate (JL.RF07) was composed of CRF01_AE cluster 5 (northeastern China origin) and subtype B (U.S. and European origin), with six recombinant breakpoints observed in the pol, vif, tat, rev, and env gene regions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first detection of a novel HIV-1 recombinant form (CRF01_AE/B) in Jilin, which may indicate an active transmission network of HIV-1 infection among MSM in the region. Further studies of the molecular epidemiology of the HIV-1 epidemic among MSM in northeastern China are necessary to gain a fuller understanding of the transmission network and potential public health impact of HIV-1 among MSM in this region.
我们在此报告一种新型HIV-1重组形式(CRF01_AE/B),它是在中国东北吉林省开展的一项针对男男性行为者(MSM)的全面HIV-1分子流行病学研究中检测到的。近乎全长基因组(NFLG)分析表明,这种新型HIV-1重组毒株(JL.RF07)由CRF01_AE簇5(源自中国东北)和B亚型(源自美国和欧洲)组成,在pol、vif、tat、rev和env基因区域观察到六个重组断点。据我们所知,这是在吉林首次检测到新型HIV-1重组形式(CRF01_AE/B),这可能表明该地区MSM中存在活跃的HIV-1感染传播网络。有必要对中国东北MSM中HIV-1流行的分子流行病学开展进一步研究,以便更全面地了解该地区MSM中HIV-1的传播网络及其潜在的公共卫生影响。
