HIV-1 virus is known to infect the host mainly through CD4+ T-lymphocyte cells, by interactions among the viral envelope proteins, CD4 receptor and HIV-1 coreceptors, such as chemokines receptors. Variations in the genes encoding HIV-1 coreceptors and their natural ligands have been shown to modify HIV-1 infection susceptibility and disease progression.

Abstract

HIV-1 virus is known to infect the host mainly through CD4+ T-lymphocyte cells, by interactions among the viral envelope proteins, CD4 receptor and HIV-1 coreceptors, such as chemokines receptors. Variations in the genes encoding HIV-1 coreceptors and their natural ligands have been shown to modify HIV-1 infection susceptibility and disease progression.
