Abstract
CD8+ T lymphocytes have the potential ability to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication, by secreting soluble(s) factor(s) known as CD8+ T lymphocyte antiviral factor (CAF). A panel of CD8+ and CD4+ T cell clones from HIV1-infected and uninfected donors were generated to better define the phenotype of CAF-producing cells. We first verified that the different CD4+ T cell subsets (Th0, Th1, and Th2) were productively infected by X4 and R5 virus strains. X4 viral replication in CD4+ T cells was controlled by the three CD8+ T cell subsets (Tc0, Tc1, and Tc2); however, the frequency of Tc clones controlling R5 strain was much lower with a dramatic absence of this activity among Tc clones from uninfected donor. Finally, capacity to control viral replication showed an heterogeneity: some clones could control both virus strains, some controlled only the X4 virus, whereas the majority exerted no suppressive activity.
