Twenty-four adults infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) with central nervous system symptoms were studied for antiretroviral resistance mutations in HIV-1 RNA obtained from paired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma samples. Paired sequences were obtained from 21 and 13 patients for reverse transcriptase (RT) and for protease, respectively. Mutations conferring resistance to the RT inhibitors zidovudine, lamivudine, or nevirapine were detected in 14 patients, including 11 pretreated and 3 drug-naive subjects. The mutation patterns in the 2 compartments were different in most patients. Genotypic resistance to protease inhibitors was detected in both plasma and CSF from 1 patient treated with multiple protease inhibitors. However, accessory protease inhibitor resistance mutations at polymorphic sites were different in plasma and CSF in several patients. Partially independent evolution of viral quasispecies occurs in plasma and CSF, raising the possibility that compartmentalization of drug resistance may affect response to antiretroviral treatment.
