Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org Objective o To determine the breadth and persistence of HIV-1 specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses in blood and cervical mucosa of ESN women. Study Population o 30 ESN women provided samples at baseline and at least one follow up visit (3 rd,6 th month). o Sero-concordant couples (n=17) and low-risk seronegative women (n=30) provided samples only at baseline and were included as controls. Methods o Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and mucosal mononuclear cells (MMC) were stimulated with HIV-1 Gag and Env (Clade C) and IFN-g production was measured by Intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) assay. o The flow data were analyzed using FlowJo software.

Washington D.C., USA, July 2012www.aids2012.org Results BaselineFollow-up Study cohortPBMCMMCPBMCMMC ESN women 2 /30 (7%) Env responses 3/17 (18%) Env / Env+ Gag 3/17 (18%) Env responses 1/7 (14%) Env and Gag HIV-1 concordant women 8/17 (47%) Gag responses 2/5 (40%) Env responses --- Low risk women0/300/25--- Conclusion o These findings confirm that HIV-specific T-cell responses can be detected in PBMC and MMC from ESN women. o In ESN women, the PBMC responses were exclusively directed against Env. o One out of 4 ESN women continued to show positive responses upon longitudinal follow-up.
