RESUMO
We looked at our HIVâ+âslow progressors cohort to determine if there were any human leukocyte antigen (HLA) correlates for protection. No statistically significant allelic differences were found between the HIVâ+âand control cohorts using regression analysis, though trends were noted. Data for Elite Controllers showed an increased frequency of B*57. Likewise, no correlation was inferred with the clinical data of the HIVâ+âcohort. We hypothesize that the protective effect of HLA alleles may have been lost over time.
