Innate immune mechanisms play a deterministic role in the rate of disease progression during acute infection in HIV infected humans and SIV infection of non-human primates. The role NK cells play in mediating such an effect has thus gained importance. One of the major sets of molecules that regulate NK cell function are the killer cell immunoglobulin-like molecules (KIR’s). Our laboratory has previously...
Autoantibodies appear in the sera of rhesus macaques following SIV infection. The present study was conducted to examine the role of viral load, antiviral chemotherapy and stage of disease on the titers of such autoantibodies and the spectrum of autoantigens that become the target of such autoimmune responses. In addition, the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs) was also examined. Results of these...
