One hallmark of uncontrolled, chronic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection is the absence of strong HIV-1-specific, CD4(+) T-cell-proliferative responses, yet the mechanism underlying this T helper (Th)-cell defect remains controversial. To better understand the impact of HIV-1 replication on Th-cell function, we compared the frequency of CD4(+) Th-cell responses based on production of gamma interferon to lymphoproliferative responses directed against HIV-1 proteins in HIV-1-infected subjects with active in vivo viral replication versus those on suppressed highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). No statistically significant differences in the frequencies of cytokine-secreting, HIV-1-specific CD4(+) T cells between the donor groups were found, despite differences in viral load and treatment status. However, HIV-1-specific lymphoproliferative responses were significantly greater in the subjects with HAART suppression than in subjects with active viral replication. Similar levels of HIV-1 RNA were measured in T-cell cultures stimulated with HIV-1 antigens regardless of donor in vivo viral loads, but only HIV-1-specific CD4(+) T cells from subjects with HAART suppression proliferated in vitro, suggesting that HIV-1 replication in vitro does not preclude HIV-1-specific lymphoproliferation. This study demonstrates a discordance between the frequency and proliferative capacity of HIV-1-specific CD4(+) T cells in subjects with ongoing in vivo viral replication and suggests that in vivo HIV-1 replication contributes to the observed defect in HIV-1-specific CD4(+) T-cell proliferation.
