We investigated the relationship between CD4+CD38+, CD4+HLA-DR+, CD8+CD38+, and CD8+HLA-DR+ cell proportions (HLA-DR = major histocompatibility complex class II) (determined by two-color immunofluorescence) and the clinical condition, IL-2 and IL-6 production, viral RNA copy numbers, and the eventual immunologic-virologic course in 25 children perinatally infected with HIV-1 surviving longer than 5 y [median age, 92 (range, 63-136) mo]. Twelve healthy age-matched children were studied as control subjects. HIV-1+ children had lower percentages and absolute numbers of CD4+CD38+, whereas the percentages of CD4+HLA-DR+ and the percentages and absolute numbers of CD8+CD38+ and CD8+HLA-DR+ cells were higher than that of control subjects. The absolute numbers of CD4+ and the percentages of CD4+CD38+, CD8+CD38+, and CD8+HLA-DR+ cells directly correlated, whereas the percentages of CD4+CD38+ and CD4+HLA-DR+ cells, the percentages of CD4+CD38+ and CD8+CD38+ cells, the CD8+ cell absolute numbers, and the percentages of CD8+CD38+ cells did not. Severe manifestations and immunologic deterioration occurred in children with low CD4+CD38+ cell percentages, whereas virologic worsening was associated with low CD8+CD38+ and CD8+HLA-DR+ cell percentages. IL-2 production directly correlated with percentages and absolute numbers of CD4+CD38+ and CD8+CD38+ cells. RNA copy numbers inversely correlated with CD4+CD38+, CD4+HLA-DR+, CD8+CD38+, and CD8+HLA-DR+ cell percentages. This suggests that CD38 molecule expression on both CD4+ and CD8+ cell subsets is a favorable marker in HIV-1+ children. Perhaps CD8+CD38+ subsets are activated cells, whereas CD4+CD38+ subsets are immature cells, possibly the host's attempt at CD4+ cell renewal.
