摘要
Recent data have established the HIV-1 and SIV escape CTL through epitope mutation. However, three novel studies prove that such escape comes at a "cost" to overall viral fitness. Understanding how HIV-1/SIV escape CTL and the impact of the escape mutations has tremendous importance in developing CTL based vaccines. Further, a CTL based HIV-1 vaccine is likely to have long-term protective effect against disease only if the escape virus is significantly weakened compared with wild type. © 2004 Smith; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
