The repertoire of human cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) in response to influenza A viruses has been shown to be directed towards multiple epitopes, with a dominant response to the HLA-A2-restricted M1(58-66) epitope. These studies, however, were performed with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of individuals selected randomly with respect to HLA phenotype or selected for the expression of one HLA allele without considering an influence of other HLA molecules. In addition, little information is available on the influence of HLA makeup on the overall CTL response against influenza viruses. Here, the influenza A virus-specific CTL response was investigated in groups of HLA-A and -B identical individuals. Between groups the individuals shared two or three of the four HLA-A and -B alleles. After in vitro stimulation of PBMC with influenza virus, the highest CTL activity was found in HLA-A2(+) donors. A similar pattern was observed for the precursor frequency of virus-specific CTL (CTLp) ex vivo, with a higher CTLp frequency in HLA-A2-positive donors than in HLA-A2-negative donors, which were unable to recognize the immunodominant M1(58-66) epitope. In addition, CTL activity and frequency of CTLp for the individual influenza virus epitopes were determined. The frequency of CTLp specific for the HLA-B8-restricted epitope NP(380-388) was threefold lower in HLA-B27-positive donors than in HLA-B27-negative donors. In addition, the frequency of CTLp specific for the HLA-A1-restricted epitope NP(44-52) was threefold higher in HLA-A1-, -A2-, -B8-, and -B35-positive donors than in other donors, which was confirmed by measuring the CTL activity in vitro. These findings indicate that the epitope specificity of the CTL response is related to the phenotype of the other HLA molecules. Furthermore, the magnitude of the influenza virus-specific CTL response seems dependent on the HLA-A and -B phenotypes. 相似文献

Modulation of HLA-A*0201-restricted T cell responses by natural polymorphism in the IE1(315-324) epitope of human cytomegalovirus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes play a central role in the control of persistent human CMV (HCMV) infection and reactivation. In healthy virus carriers, the specific CD8(+) CTL response is almost entirely directed against the virion tegument protein pp65 and/or the 72-kDa major immediate early protein, IE1. Studies that included a large panel of HCMV(+) donors suggested that immunorelevance of pp65 and IE1 was directly related with individual HLA haplotype difference. Nevertheless, there are no data on the incidence of HCMV natural polymorphism on virus-specific CTL responses. To assess the impact of IE1 polymorphism on CTL response, we have sequenced in 103 clinical isolates the DNA region corresponding to IE1(315-324), an immunodominant epitope presented by HLA-A*0201 molecules. Seven peptidic variants were found with extensive difference in their frequencies. The response of four HLA-A*0201-restricted anti-IE1 T lymphocyte clones, which were previously generated from one donor against autologous B lymphoblastoid cells expressing a recombinant clinical variant of IE1, was then evaluated using target cells loaded with mutant synthetic peptides or expressing rIE1 variants. One of four clones, which have been sorted 19 times among 22 clones targeted against IE1(315-324), recognized six of the seven tested variant epitopes. All three other clones showed distinct reactivity patterns to target cells loaded with the different mutant peptides or expressing IE1 variants. Therefore, in the HLA-A2 context, clonal expansions of anti-IE1 memory CTLs may confer a protection against HCMV successive infections and reactivations by killing cells presenting most of the naturally occurring IE1(315-324) epitope variants. 相似文献

Viruses can exploit a variety of strategies to evade immune surveillance by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), including the acquisition of mutations in or adjacent to CTL epitopes. Recently, an amino acid substitution (R384G) in an HLA-B*2705-restricted CTL epitope in the influenza A virus nucleoprotein (nucleoprotein containing residues 383 to 391 [NP383-391]; SRYWAIRTR, where R is the residue that was mutated) was associated with escape from CTL-mediated immunity. The effect of this mutation on the in vitro influenza A virus-specific CTL response was studied. To this end, two influenza A viruses, one with and one without the NP383-391 epitope, were constructed by reverse genetics and designated influenza viruses A/NL/94-384R and A/NL/94-384G, respectively. The absence of the HLA-B*2705-restricted CTL epitope in influenza virus A/NL/94-384G was confirmed by using 51Cr release assays with a T-cell clone specific for the NP383-391 epitope. In addition, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) stimulated with influenza virus A/NL/94-384G failed to recognize HLA-B*2705-positive target cells pulsed with the original NP383-391 peptide. The proportion of virus-specific CD8+ gamma interferon (IFN-γ)-positive T cells in in vitro-stimulated PBMC was determined by intracellular IFN-γ staining after restimulation with virus-infected autologous B-lymphoblastoid cell lines and C1R cell lines expressing only HLA-B*2705. The proportion of virus-specific CD8+ T cells was lower in PBMC stimulated in vitro with influenza virus A/NL/94-384G obtained from several HLA-B*2705-positive donors than in PBMC stimulated with influenza virus A/NL/94-384R. This finding indicated that amino acid variations in CTL epitopes can affect the virus-specific CTL response and that the NP383-391 epitope is the most important HLA-B*2705-restricted epitope in the nucleoprotein of influenza A viruses. 相似文献

The Ag specificity of the CTL response against CMV is directed almost entirely to a single CMV tegument protein, the phosphoprotein pp65. We report the identification of three peptides derived from the protein pp65 that displayed a high or intermediate binding to HLA-A*0201 molecules, which were also able to induce an in vitro CTL response in peripheral blood lymphocytes from CMV seropositive individuals. The peptide-specific CTLs generated were capable of recognizing the naturally processed pp65 either presented by CMV-infected cells or by cells infected with an adenovirus construct expressing pp65 in an HLA-A*0201-restricted manner. Thus, we were able to demonstrate responses to subdominant CTL epitopes in CMV-pp65 that were not detected in polyclonal cultures obtained by conventional stimulations. We also found that the amino acid sequences of the three peptides identified as HLA-A*0201-restricted CTL epitopes were conserved among different wild-type strains of CMV obtained from renal transplant patients, an AIDS patient, and a congenitally infected infant, as well as three laboratory strains of the virus (AD169, Towne and Davis). These observations suggest that these pp65 CTL peptide epitopes could potentially be used as synthetic peptide vaccines or for other therapeutic strategies aimed at HLA-A*0201-positive individuals, who represent approximately 40% of the European Caucasoid population. However, strain variation must be taken in consideration when the search for CTL epitopes is extended to other HLA class I alleles, because these mutations may span potential CTL epitopes for other HLA molecules, as it is described in this study. 相似文献

Cutting Edge: Allele-specific and peptide-dependent interactions between KIR3DL1 and HLA-A and HLA-B 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Although it is clear that KIR3DL1 recognizes Bw4(+) HLA-B, the role of Bw4(+) HLA-A allotypes as KIR3DL1 ligands is controversial. We therefore examined the binding of tetrameric HLA-A and -B complexes, including HLA*2402, a common Bw4(+) HLA-A allotype, to KIR3DL1*001, *005, *007, and *1502 allotypes. Only Bw4(+) tetramers bound KIR3DL1. Three of four HLA-A*2402 tetramers bound one or more KIR3DL1 allotypes and all four KIR3DL1 allotypes bound to one or more HLA-A*2402 tetramers, but with different binding specificities. Only KIR3DL1*005 bound both HLA-A*2402 and HLA-B*5703 tetramers. HLA-A*2402-expressing target cells were resistant to lysis by NK cells expressing KIR3DL1*001 or *005. This study shows that HLA-A*2402 is a ligand for KIR3DL1 and demonstrates how the binding of KIR3DL1 to Bw4(+) ligands depends upon the bound peptide as well as HLA and KIR3DL1 polymorphism. 相似文献

Since virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play a critical role in preventing the spread of hepatitis C virus (HCV), vaccine-based HCV-specific CTL induction could be a promising strategy to treat HCV-infected patients. In this study, we tried to identify HCV2a-derived epitopes, which can induce human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A24-restricted and peptide-specific CTLs. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells of HCV2a-infected patients or healthy donors were stimulated in vitro with HCV2a-derived peptides, which were prepared based on the HLA-A24 binding motif. As a result, three peptides (HCV2a 576-584, HCV2a 627-635, and HCV2a 1085-1094) efficiently induced peptide-specific CTLs from HLA-A24(+) HCV2a-infected patients as well as healthy donors. The cytotoxicity was exhibited by peptide-specific CD8(+) T cells in an HLA-A24-restricted manner. In addition, the HCV2a 627-635 peptide was frequently recognized by immunoglobulin G of HCV2a-infected patients. These results indicate that the identified three HCV2a peptides might be applicable to peptide-based immunotherapy for HLA-A24(+) HCV2a-infected patients. 相似文献

CD8(+) T cells are thought to play an important role in protective immunity to tuberculosis. Although several nonprotein ligands have been identified for CD1-restricted CD8(+) CTLs, epitopes for classical MHC class I-restricted CD8(+) T cells, which most likely represent a majority among CD8(+) T cells, have remained ill defined. HLA-A*0201 is one of the most prevalent class I alleles, with a frequency of over 30% in most populations. HLA-A2/K(b) transgenic mice were shown to provide a powerful model for studying induction of HLA-A*0201-restricted immune responses in vivo. The Ag85 complex, a major component of secreted Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins, induces strong CD4(+) T cell responses in M. tuberculosis-infected individuals, and protection against tuberculosis in Ag85-DNA-immunized animals. In this study, we demonstrate the presence of HLA class I-restricted, CD8(+) T cells against Ag85B of M. tuberculosis in HLA-A2/K(b) transgenic mice and HLA-A*0201(+) humans. Moreover, two immunodominant Ag85 peptide epitopes for HLA-A*0201-restricted, M. tuberculosis-reactive CD8(+) CTLs were identified. These CD8(+) T cells produced IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha and recognized Ag-pulsed or bacillus Calmette-Guérin-infected, HLA-A*0201-positive, but not HLA-A*0201-negative or uninfected human macrophages. This CTL-mediated killing was blocked by anti-CD8 or anti-HLA class I mAb. Using fluorescent peptide/HLA-A*0201 tetramers, Ag85-specific CD8(+) T cells could be visualized in bacillus Calmette-Guérin-responsive, HLA-A*0201(+) individuals. Collectively, our results demonstrate the presence of HLA class I-restricted CD8(+) CTL against a major Ag of M. tuberculosis and identify Ag85B epitopes that are strongly recognized by HLA-A*0201-restricted CD8(+) T cells in humans and mice. These epitopes thus represent potential subunit components for the design of vaccines against tuberculosis. 相似文献

It was hypothesized that the EBV-specific CD8(+) T cell response may be dysregulated in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, possibly leading to a suboptimal control of this virus. To examine the CD8(+) T cell response in greater detail, we analyzed the HLA-A2-, HLA-B7-, and HLA-B8-restricted EBV- and CMV-specific CD8(+) T cell responses in a high number of MS patients and control subjects using tetramers. Content in cytolytic granules, as well as cytotoxic activity, of EBV- and CMV-specific CD8(+) T cells was assessed. We found that MS patients had a lower or a higher prevalence of HLA-A2 and HLA-B7, respectively. Using HLA class I tetramers in HLA-B7(+) MS patients, there was a higher prevalence of MS patients with HLA-B*0702/EBV(RPP)-specific CD8(+) T cells ex vivo. However, the magnitude of the HLA-B*0702/EBV(RPP)-specific and HLA-B*0702/CMV(TPR)-specific CD8(+) T cell response (i.e., the percentage of tetramer(+) CD8(+) T cells in a study subject harboring CD8(+) T cells specific for the given epitope) was lower in MS patients. No differences were found using other tetramers. After stimulation with the HLA-B*0702/EBV(RPP) peptide, the production of IL-2, perforin, and granzyme B and the cytotoxicity of HLA-B*0702/EBV(RPP)-specific CD8(+) T cells were decreased. Altogether, our findings suggest that the HLA-B*0702-restricted viral (in particular the EBV one)-specific CD8(+) T cell response is dysregulated in MS patients. This observation is particularly interesting knowing that the HLA-B7 allele is more frequently expressed in MS patients and considering that EBV is associated with MS. 相似文献

Although mice transgenic (Tg) for human MHC (HLA) class I alleles could provide an important model for characterizing HLA-restricted viral and tumor Ag CTL epitopes, the extent to which Tg mouse T cells become HLA restricted in the presence of endogenous H2 class I and recognize the same peptides as in HLA allele-matched humans is not clear. We previously described Tg mice carrying the HLA-B27, HLA-B7, or HLA-A2 alleles expressed as fully native (HLA(nat)) (with human beta(2)-microglobulin) and as hybrid human/mouse (HLA(hyb)) molecules on the H2(b) background. To eliminate the influence of H2(b) class I, each HLA Tg strain was bred with a H2-K(b)/H2-D(b)-double knockout (DKO) strain to generate mice in which the only classical class I expression was the human molecule. Expression of each HLA(hyb) molecule and HLA-B27(nat)/human beta(2)-microglobulin led to peripheral CD8(+) T cell levels comparable with that for mice expressing a single H2-K(b) or H2-D(b) gene. Influenza A infection of Tg HLA-B27(hyb)/DKO generated a strong CD8(+) T cell response directed at the same peptide (flu nucleoprotein NP383-391) recognized by CTLs from flu-infected B27(+) humans. As HLA-B7/flu epitopes were not known from human studies, we used flu-infected Tg HLA-B7(hyb)/DKO mice to examine the CTL response to candidate peptides identified based on the B7 binding motif. We have identified flu NP418-426 as a major HLA-B7-restricted flu CTL epitope. In summary, the HLA class I Tg/H2-K/H2-D DKO mouse model described in this study provides a sensitive and specific approach for identifying and characterizing HLA-restricted CTL epitopes for a variety of human disease-associated Ags. 相似文献

The memory T cell response is polyclonal, with the magnitude and specificity of the response controlled in part by the burst size of T cells expanded from effector/memory precursors. Sensitive assays using HLA class II multimers were used to detect low-frequency Ag-specific T cells directed against influenza viral Ags in subjects immunized with the influenza vaccine. Direct ex vivo tetramer staining of PBMC from five individuals identified frequencies of hemagglutinin (HA) 306-318 tetramer binding CD4(+) T cells in the peripheral blood ranging from 1 in 600 to 1 in 30,000 CD4(+) T cells. These frequencies were validated by counting CFSE(low), tetramer-positive T cells after in vitro expansion. Low frequency of T cells directed to other influenza epitopes, including DRA1*0101/DRB1*0401-restricted matrix protein 60-73, DRA1*0101/DRB1*0101-restricted matrix protein 18-29, DRA1*0101/DRB1*0701-restricted HA 232-244 and DRA1*0101/DRB1*0101-restricted nucleoprotein 206-217 were also determined. T cells which occurred at a frequency as low as 1 in 350,000 could be ascertained by in vitro expansion of precursors. Peripheral HA(306-318)-responsive T cells expanded 2- to 5-fold following influenza vaccination. Examination of phenotypic markers of the HA(306-318)-responsive T cells in the peripheral blood indicated that the majority were CD45RA(-), CD27(+), CD25(-), CD28(+), and CD62L(-), while T cell clones derived from this population were CD45RA(-), CD27(-), CD25(+), CD28(+), and CD62L(-). 相似文献

Lack of a universal vaccine against all serotypes of influenza A viruses and recent progress on T cell-related vaccines against influenza A virus illuminate the important role of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in anti-influenza virus immunity. However, the diverse HLA alleles among humans complicate virus-specific cellular immunity research, and elucidation of cross-HLA allele T cell responses to influenza virus specificity requires further detailed work. An ideal CTL epitope-based vaccine would cover a broad spectrum of epitope antigens presented by most, if not all, of the HLAs. Here, we evaluated the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus-specific T cell responses among the HLA-A24+ population using a rationally designed peptide pool during the 2009 pandemic. Unexpectedly, cross-HLA allele T cell responses against the influenza A virus peptides were detected among both HLA-A11+ and HLA-A24+ donors. Furthermore, we found cross-responses in the entire HLA-A3 supertype population (including HLA-A11, -A31, -A33, and -A30). The cross-allele antigenic peptides within the peptide pool were identified and characterized, and the crystal structures of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-peptide complexes were determined. The subsequent HLA-A24-defined cross-allele peptides recognized by the HLA-A11+ population were shown to mildly bind to the HLA-A*1101 molecule. Together with the structural models, these results partially explain the cross-allele responses. Our findings elucidate the promiscuity of the cross-allele T cell responses against influenza A viruses and are beneficial for the development of a T cell epitope-based vaccine applied in a broader population. 相似文献

Nascent HLA-class I molecules are stabilized by proteasome-derived peptides in the ER and the new complexes proceed to the cell surface through the post-ER vesicles. It has been shown, however, that less stable complexes can exchange peptides in the Trans Golgi Network (TGN). HLA-B27 are the most studied HLA-class I molecules due to their association with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). Chimeric proteins driven by TAT of HIV have been exploited by us to deliver viral epitopes, whose cross-presentation by the HLA-B27 molecules was proteasome and TAP-independent and not restricted to Antigen-Presenting Cells (APC). Here, using these chimeric proteins as epitope suppliers, we compared with each other and with the HLA-A2 molecules, the two HLA-B*2705 and B*2709 alleles differing at residue 116 (D116H) and differentially associated with AS. We found that the antigen presentation by the two HLA-B27 molecules was proteasome-, TAP-, and APC-independent whereas the presentation by the HLA-A2 molecules required proteasome, TAP and professional APC. Assuming that such difference could be due to the unpaired, highly reactive Cys-67 distinguishing the HLA-B27 molecules, C67S mutants in HLA-B*2705 and B*2709 and V67C mutant in HLA-A*0201 were also analyzed. The results showed that this mutation did not influence the HLA-A2-restricted antigen presentation while it drastically affected the HLA-B27-restricted presentation with, however, remarkable differences between B*2705 and B*2709. The data, together with the occurrence on the cell surface of unfolded molecules in the case of C67S-B*2705 mutant but not in that of C67S-B*2709 mutant, indicates that Cys-67 has a more critical role in stabilizing the B*2705 rather than the B*2709 complexes. 相似文献

Certain major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) alleles are associated with delayed disease progression in individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and in macaques infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). However, little is known about the influence of these MHC alleles on acute-phase cellular immune responses. Here we follow 51 animals infected with SIV(mac)239 and demonstrate a dramatic association between Mamu-A*01 and -B*17 expression and slowed disease progression. We show that the dominant acute-phase cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses in animals expressing these alleles are largely directed against two epitopes restricted by Mamu-A*01 and one epitope restricted by Mamu-B*17. One Mamu-A*01-restricted response (Tat(28-35)SL8) and the Mamu-B*17-restricted response (Nef(165-173)IW9) typically select for viral escape variants in early SIV(mac)239 infection. Interestingly, animals expressing Mamu-A*1 and -B*17 have less variation in the Tat(28-35)SL8 epitope during chronic infection than animals that express only Mamu-A*01. Our results show that MHC-I alleles that are associated with slow progression to AIDS bind epitopes recognized by dominant CTL responses during acute infection and underscore the importance of understanding CTL responses during primary HIV infection. 相似文献

Several HLA class I alleles have been associated with slow human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease progression, supporting the important role HLA class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play in controlling HIV infection. HLA-B63, the serological marker for the closely related HLA-B*1516 and HLA-B*1517 alleles, shares the epitope binding motif of HLA-B57 and HLA-B58, two alleles that have been associated with slow HIV disease progression. We investigated whether HIV-infected individuals who express HLA-B63 generate CTL responses that are comparable in breadth and specificity to those of HLA-B57/58-positive subjects and whether HLA-B63-positive individuals would also present with lower viral set points than the general population. The data show that HLA-B63-positive individuals indeed mounted responses to previously identified HLA-B57-restricted epitopes as well as towards novel, HLA-B63-restricted CTL targets that, in turn, can be presented by HLA-B57 and HLA-B58. HLA-B63-positive subjects generated these responses early in acute HIV infection and were able to control HIV replication in the absence of antiretroviral treatment with a median viral load of 3,280 RNA copies/ml. The data support an important role of the presented epitope in mediating relative control of HIV replication and help to better define immune correlates of controlled HIV infection. 相似文献

The specificity of in vitro induced human influenza-immune cytotoxic effector cells was analyzed with respect to recognition of HLA-A and -B-linked gene products. The influenza-immune cytotoxic activity observed on panels of virus-infected targets demonstrated that virus-immune effectors preferentially lyse targets with which they share HLA-A or -B specificities. Virus-immune effectors from certain donors recognized virus in conjunction with some, but not all, of their self HLA-A and -B antigens. Among donors who share a given HLA antigen (such as A2 or B7), there are differences in the ability of their virus-immune T cells to recognize the shared antigen. Virus-infected target cells from HLA-A2 or -B7 "nonresponder" donors could be lysed by virus-immune T cells obtained from other donors who shared only the HLA-A2 or -B7 antigen with these target cells. These observations suggest that the absence of cytotoxic T cell responses by some donors to influenza virus in conjunction with HLA-A2 or -B7 is not due to control by the structural genes that code for these HLA antigens, but rather may result from control by regulatory genes that act at the level of the responder and/or stimulator cell. The results are discussed in the context of Ir gene regulation of human T cell responses. 相似文献

The molecular basis of T-cell-mediated recognition of ovarian cancer cells remains to be fully addressed. In this study we
investigated HLA class I restriction and directed antigens of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) at the sites of ovarian cancer.
Three HLA-class-I-restricted CTL lines were established from the tumor sites of ovarian cancer by culturing tumor-infiltrating
lymphocytes or tumor-associated ascitic lymphocytes with interleukin-2: (1) HLA-A2402-restricted and ovarian-adenocarcinoma-specific
CTL, (2) HLA-A2-restricted CTL recognizing histologically different cancers, and (3) HLA-B52-restricted and ovarian-cancer-specific
CTL. HLA-A0201, HLA-A0206 and HLA-A0207 tumor cells were lysed by the HLA-A2-restricted CTL. HLA-B52 restriction of the third
CTL line was confirmed by the transfection of HLA-B5201 cDNA into the tumor cells. The HLA-A2-restricted CTL recognized the SART-1, but not the MAGE-1 or MAGE-3 antigen. These results
may facilitate a better understanding of the molecular basis of tumor-specific immunity at the tumor site of ovarian cancer.

T cells of two donors, JR (HLA-A23, 29; B7,7; G; DRw5) and HG (HLA-A2, 23; B40, w44; Cw4), were stimulated with cells from an HLA homozygous lymphoblastoid cell line JY (HLA-A2, 2; B7,7, C-, DRw4, 6) and cloned by limiting dilution after the third stimulation. Two cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) clones, JR-2-16 (from donor JR) and HG-31 (from donor HG), were used for detailed studies. The results of a panel study using lymphocytes from HLA-typed individuals and a study with two HLA recombinant families indicate that the antigens recognized by the CTL clones JR-2-16 and HG-31 were highly associated with HLA-A2 and HLA-B7, respectively. Blocking studies with a monoclonal antibody recognizing a framework determinant on HLA-A, -B and-C antigens and a monoclonal antibody reacting with HLA-A2 support the notion that JR-2-16 and HG-31 interact with the HLA-A2 and the HLA-B7 antigens per se. However, these clones did not recognize the HLA-A2 and HLA-B7 of all donors typed for these antigens, suggesting that the HLA-A2 and HLA-B7 antigens of these particular donors are variants of the serologically defined HLA antigens. These results indicate that in vitro-derived human CTL clones detect variations in the serologically defined allospecificities and can be used as reagents to elucidate the polymorphism of HLA antigens further.Abbreviations used in this paper: CTL

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-specific immune responses during primary HIV-1 infection appear to play a critical role in determining the ultimate speed of disease progression, but little is known about the specificity of the initial HIV-1-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses in individuals expressing protective HLA class I alleles. Here we compared HIV-1-specific T-cell responses between subjects expressing the protective allele HLA-B27 or -B57 and subjects expressing nonprotective HLA alleles using a cohort of over 290 subjects identified during primary HIV-1 infection. CD8(+) T cells of individuals expressing HLA-B27 or -B57 targeted a defined region within HIV-1 p24 Gag (amino acids 240 to 272) early in infection, and responses against this region contributed over 35% to the total HIV-1-specific T-cell responses in these individuals. In contrast, this region was rarely recognized in individuals expressing HLA-B35, an HLA allele associated with rapid disease progression, or in subjects expressing neither HLA-B57/B27 nor HLA-B35 (P < 0.0001). The identification of this highly conserved region in p24 Gag targeted in primary infection specifically in individuals expressing HLA class I alleles associated with slower HIV-1 disease progression provides a rationale for vaccine design aimed at inducing responses to this region restricted by other, more common HLA class I alleles. 相似文献
