HIV-1 evolved from its progenitor SIV strains, but details are lacking on its adaptation to the human host. We followed the evolution of SIVcpz in humanized mice to mimic cross-species transmission. Increasing viral loads, CD4 T-cell decline, and non-synonymous mutations were seen in the entire genome reflecting viral adaptation.
HIV-1 是从其前体 SIV 株进化而来的,但它适应人类宿主的细节尚不清楚。我们通过在人源化小鼠中跟踪 SIVcpz 的进化来模拟跨物种传播。整个基因组中观察到病毒载量增加、CD4 T 细胞减少和非同义突变,反映了病毒的适应性。
