Introduction: HIV-1-associated CD4+ T-cell depletion is a consequence of uninfected cell death. Nef is one of the viral factors that trigger apoptosis on bystander cells, though the plasma Nef levels do not correlate with Th lymphocytes counts. The aim of our study was to evaluate whether anti-Nef antibodies were involved in paediatric AIDS development and whether they can prevent the CD4+ T-cell depletion in vertically infected children.

The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence and persistence of syncytium-inducing (SI) strains in HIV-1-infected children along time of infection and to evaluate the influence of antiretroviral therapy and host factors on viral tropism. This is a retrospective analysis carried out in 267 HIV-1 vertically infected children from an Argentinean cohort. The viral phenotype was screened in MT-2 cells and coreceptor usage confirmed by the GHOST cell assay.
