MeasureTime frame
This is a discovery study aiming to examine exhaustion of HIV-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in HIV-1 and HIV-2 infection and the role of epigenetic modifications in the exhaustion and function of these cells. The main study parameters are differences in a) phenotype (differentiation, activation, inhibitory receptor expression and transcription factors), b) effector functions (cytokine production, cytotoxicity), c) survival and d) proliferation of HIV-specific T cells; e) differentiation and activation phenotypes, and function of immune subpopulations (i.e. CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, B cells, NK cells, macrophages and DC). These differences will be measured directly ex vivo and after in vitro treatment with inhibitors of different classes of epigenetic modifiers
