spelling Increased frequency of circulating CCR5+ CD4+ T cells in human immunodeficiency virus type 2 infection© 2006, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.CCR5 expression determines susceptibility to infection, cell tropism, and the rate of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) disease progression. CCR5 is also considered the major HIV-2 coreceptor in vivo, in spite of broad coreceptor use in vitro. Here we report a significantly increased proportion of memory-effector CD4 T cells expressing CCR5 in HIV-2-infected patients correlating with CD4 depletion. Moreover, HIV-2 proviral DNA was essentially restricted to memory-effector CD4, suggesting that this is the main target for HIV-2. Similar levels of proviral DNA were found in the two infection categories. Thus, the reduced viremia and slow rate of CD4 decline that characterize HIV-2 infection seem to be unrelated to coreceptor availability.This work was supported by grants from Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) and Comissão Nacional de Luta Contra a SIDA to A.E.S.
