pubmed:abstractText |
The pigtail macaque (Macaca nemestrina) is a common model for the study of AIDS. The pigtail major histocompatibility complex class I allele Mane-A*10 restricts an immunodominant simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Gag epitope (KP9) which rapidly mutates to escape T cell recognition following acute simian/human immunodeficiency virus infection. Two technologies for the detection of Mane-A*10 in outbred pigtail macaques were developed: reference strand-mediated conformational analysis and sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction. A Mane-A*10/KP9 tetramer was then developed to quantify CD8(+) T lymphocytes primed by multigenic DNA vaccination, which have previously been difficult to detect using standard interferon-gamma-based T cell assays. We also demonstrate mutational escape at KP9 following acute SIV infection. Mane-A*10(+) animals have lower set point SIV levels than Mane-A*10(-) animals, suggesting a significant fitness cost of escape. These studies pave the way for a more robust understanding of HIV vaccines in pigtail macaques.
