Among 75 consecutive human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected patients with moderate and advanced immunosuppression, those harboring syncytium-inducing (SI) HIV-1 had a lower CD(4+)-cell count (145 versus 278 cells per microliter, P < 0.001) and 10-fold-higher virus titers than patients with non-SI HIV-1 (398 versus 39 infectious units per 10(6) CD4+ lymphocytes; P < 0.001). In patients with SI virus, the mean titer of SI virus, determined with a quantitative MT-2 cell assay, was 135 SI infectious units per 10(6) CD4+ lymphocytes. Virus titer correlated inversely with CD(4+)-cell count in patients with SI (r = -0.67) but not non-SI (r = -0.29) virus.
在75例连续感染1型人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)且免疫抑制程度为中度和重度的患者中,携带合胞体诱导型(SI)HIV-1的患者的CD4+细胞计数较低(每微升145个细胞对278个细胞,P<0.001),病毒滴度比非SI HIV-1患者高10倍(每10^6个CD4+淋巴细胞中398个对39个感染单位;P<0.001)。在携带SI病毒的患者中,用定量MT-2细胞试验测定的SI病毒平均滴度为每10^6个CD4+淋巴细胞135个SI感染单位。在携带SI病毒的患者中,病毒滴度与CD4+细胞计数呈负相关(r=-0.67),但在携带非SI病毒的患者中无此相关性(r=-0.29)。
