In order to develop a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 vaccine with global efficacy, it is important to evaluate the virus populations that are transmitted to individuals living in high-incidence areas. To determine the nature of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 population transmitted to women during heterosexual contact, we examined the diversity of the proviral envelope gene in infected cells in both genital secretions and peripheral blood from six recently seroconverted Kenyan women. Heterogeneous virus populations were present in cervical secretions and/or peripheral blood shortly after seroconversion for five of six infected individuals, and tissue-specific variants were identified in several cases.
为开发具有全球效力的1型人类免疫缺陷病毒疫苗,评估传播到高发病率地区人群的病毒群体非常重要。为确定异性接触期间传播给女性的1型人类免疫缺陷病毒群体的性质,我们检测了6名近期血清转化的肯尼亚女性的生殖分泌物和外周血中受感染细胞前病毒包膜基因的多样性。在6名受感染个体中的5名血清转化后不久,宫颈分泌物和/或外周血中存在异质病毒群体,并且在一些病例中鉴定出组织特异性变体。
