description | <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Vaccination with live attenuated SIV can protect against detectable infection with wild-type virus. We have investigated whether target cell depletion contributes to the protection observed. Following vaccination with live attenuated SIV the frequency of intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells, an early target of wild-type SIV infection and destruction, was determined at days 3, 7, 10, 21 and 125 post inoculation.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>In naive controls, modest frequencies of intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells were predominantly found within the LPL T<sub>TrM-1 </sub>and IEL T<sub>TrM-2 </sub>subsets. At day 3, LPL and IEL CD4+CCR5+ T<sub>EM </sub>cells were dramatically increased whilst less differentiated subsets were greatly reduced, consistent with activation-induced maturation. CCR5 expression remained high at day 7, although there was a shift in subset balance from CD4+CCR5+ T<sub>EM </sub>to less differentiated T<sub>TrM-2 </sub>cells. This increase in intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells preceded the peak of SIV RNA plasma loads measured at day 10. Greater than 65.9% depletion of intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells followed at day 10, but overall CD4+ T cell homeostasis was maintained by increased CD4+CCR5- T cells. At days 21 and 125, high numbers of intestinal CD4+CCR5- naive T<sub>N </sub>cells were detected concurrent with greatly increased CD4+CCR5+ LPL T<sub>TrM-2 </sub>and IEL T<sub>EM </sub>cells at day 125, yet SIV RNA plasma loads remained low.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>This increase in intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells, following vaccination with live attenuated SIV, does not correlate with target cell depletion as a mechanism of protection. Instead, increased intestinal CD4+CCR5+ T cells may correlate with or contribute to the protection conferred by vaccination with live attenuated SIV.</p> |
