But in a small group of HIV-infected people known as long-term nonprogressors, those CD8 cells seem to stave off the development of AIDS, even in the absence of anti-HIV drugs. Through various tests, they found that these chemicals were produced by stimulated CD8 cells of three of the long-term non-progressors they are studying (they picked their three best non-progressors among their patients, in order to have the best chance of identifying how their cells are able to keep HIV in check). Overall, they found that the telomere length of CD8 cells was significantly shorter than CD4 telomere length in a group of 14 HIV-infected men, suggesting the new CD8 cells were being produced much faster than CD4 cells. |
