Presence of HIV-1 Gag-Specific IFN-{gamma}+IL-2+ and CD28+IL-2+ CD4 T Cell Responses Is Associated with Nonprogression in HIV-1 Infection1

HIV immunity is likely CD4 T cell dependent. HIV-specific CD4 T cell proliferative responses are reported to correlate inversely with virus load and directly with specific CD8 responses. However, the phenotype and cytokine profile of specific CD4 T cells that correlate with disease is unknown. We compared the number/function of Gag p24-specific CD4 T cells in 17 HIV-infected long-term nonprogressors (LTNPs) infected for a median of 14.6 years with those of 16 slow progressors (SPs), also HIV infected for a median of 14 years but whose CD4 count had declined to <500 cells/µl. Compared with SPs, LTNPs had higher numbers of specific CD4s that were double positive for IFN-{gamma} and IL-2 as well as CD28 and IL-2. However, CD4 T cells that produced IL-2 alone (IL-2+IFN-{gamma}-) or IFN-{gamma} alone (IFN-{gamma}+IL-2-) did not differ between LTNPs and SPs. The decrease in p24-specific CD28+IL-2+ cells with a concomitant increase of p24-specific CD28-IL-2+ cells occurred before those specific for a non-HIV Ag, CMV. p24-specific CD28-IL-2+ cells were evident in LTNPs and SPs, whereas the CMV-specific CD28-IL-2+ response was confined to SPs. The difference between LTNPs and SPs in the Gag p24 IFN-{gamma}+IL-2+ response was maintained when responses to total Gag (p17 plus p24) were measured. The percentage and absolute number of Gag-specific IFN-{gamma}+IL-2+ but not of IFN-{gamma}+IL-2- CD4s correlated inversely with virus load. The Gag-specific IFN-{gamma}+IL-2+ CD4 response also correlated positively with the percentage of Gag-specific IFN-{gamma}+ CD8 T cells in these subjects. Accumulation of specific CD28-IL-2+ helpers and loss of IFN-{gamma}+IL-2+ CD4 T cells may compromise specific CD8 responses and, in turn, immunity to HIV.
