Abstract

Highlights: [•] HIV mother to child transmission (HIVMTCT) is a multifactorial event. [•] HIVMTCT depends upon environmental and host genetic factors, as well as viral genetic elements. [•] Two research groups (from Brazil and Argentina) analyzed the immunogenetic factors associated to HIVMTCT. [•] Interaction of innate and adaptive immune genetic components seems to be essential in the HIVMTCT outcome. [•] We envisage the creation of a MTCT consortium aimed at analyzing larger groups of children from different ethnic groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
