Abstract

The development of syncytium-inducing strains of HIV may affect the progression from HIV infection to AIDS in patients infected with some viral subtypes. Researchers tested MT-2 cells from 86 HIV patients. Sycytium-inducing viral variants were rare in patients infected with HIV subtype C, but common in those infected with subtype E. This finding may influence the prognosis for the disease and the transmissibility of the infecting strain of virus.

Abstract

Analyzing antibody binding to the V3 peptide of HIV may not detect all of the subtypes of the virus. The V3 peptide is the basis of a rapid enzyme immunoassay. Researchers tested this enzyme immunoassay on 203 blood samples from HIV patients from 22 countries. The test accurately identified subtypes B, D, and E but was less accurate in identifying subtypes A and C. The test could not identify subtypes G or H.
