title: T lymphocyte responses in HIV-1 infection: implications for vaccine development.
abstract: Substantial progress has been made over the past year in understanding the cellular immune response in HIV pathogenesis. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes play a critical role in establishing the level of viremia and virus-specific Th cell responses appear to affect the in vivo efficacy of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Together, these new data provide important insights to refocus efforts aimed at immunotherapeutic interventions and vaccine development.
