Circulating Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) p24 Antigen-Positive Lymphocytes: A Flow Cytometric Measure of HIV Infection

Asymptomatic individuals seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) progress in a heterogeneous fashion toward AIDS. To facilitate monitoring of disease progression and response to therapy, a rapid, new flow cytometric assay (FCA) lymphocyte p24-FCA, has_ been devised to quantify peripheral...

Zusammenfassung:Asymptomatic individuals seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) progress in a heterogeneous fashion toward AIDS. To facilitate monitoring of disease progression and response to therapy, a rapid, new flow cytometric assay (FCA) lymphocyte p24-FCA, has_ been devised to quantify peripheral blood lymphocytes expressing cell-associated HIV-l p24 antigen. Results from 55 asymptomatic, HIV-1-seropositive, serum p~4 antigen-negative individuals ranged from undetectable (
