Large-scale screening of HIV-1 T-cell epitopes restricted by 12 prevalent HLA-A allotypes in Northeast Asia and universal detection of HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells by Yan Ding, Jialai Yan, Ling Huang, Jinhong Yu, Yandan Wu, Chuanlai Shen, Anning Fang

“…BackgroundAlthough the immune response of host T cells to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) significantly influences the progression of the infection, the development of T-cell-based vaccines and therapies, as well as the clinical evaluation of specific T-cell functions, is currently markedly hindered by the absence of broad-spectrum, functionally validated HIV T-cell epitopes that account for the polymorphisms of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) within an indicated geographic population. This study aimed to identify T-cell epitopes derived from the GP160, GAG, and POL proteins of the HIV-1 strain, specifically linked to 12 prevalent HLA-A allotypes, that collectively represent approximately 91% of the total gene frequency in Northeast Asian populations.MethodsA total of 134 epitopes were predicted in silico and selected as potential candidates for further validation. …”
