Long-term nonprogressors (LTNPs) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection are characterized by low levels of HIV-1 replication and viral load. However, it has not been established whether they differ in this regard from progressors from the very early stage of infection. By studying peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) specimens from a longitudinally monitored cohort of HIV-1-infected men, we found that HIV-1 proviral copy numbers and HIV-1 mRNA expression levels as low or lower than those seen in seven carefully selected LTNPs were commonly observed in specimens collected soon after seroconversion from 28 subjects who became infected while under observation. However, only the LTNPs were able to stably maintain such an efficient viral control over time. Because of the instability of the early control of HIV-1 replication, the predictive value of HIV-1 mRNA expression in PBMCs at postseroconversion was found to be limited but significantly increased during the first year of infection. Besides their diagnostic implications, these data support the idea that LTNPs may be a pathophysiologically distinct subgroup among persons infected with HIV-1.
