The Genotype of Early-Transmitting HIV gp120s Promotes α(4)β(7) –Reactivity, Revealing α(4)β(7) (+)/CD4(+) T cells As Key Targets in Mucosal Transmission

Mucosal transmission of HIV is inefficient. The virus must breach physical barriers before it infects mucosal CD4(+) T cells. Low-level viral replication occurs initially in mucosal CD4(+) T cells, but within days high-level replication occurs in Peyer's patches, the gut lamina propria and mese...
