AIDS A strain of HIV-1 that infects macrophages and activated T cells, the entry of which is facilitated by CCR5, a coreceptor for chemokines, RANTES, MIP 1α, MIP 1β; binding of these chemokines to CCR5 blocks the
entry of M strains. Cf T-tropin strain. Want to thank TFD for its existence? Tell a friend about us, add a link to this page, add the site to iGoogle, or visit the webmaster's page for free fun content. |

The use of CCR5 by M-tropic strains, CXCR4 by T-tropic strains, and both receptors by dual-tropic strains had suggested a simple paradigm for the cellular determinants of tropism whereby CCR5 would be expressed on macrophages, CXCR4 on T cells, and both types of co-receptors on primary lymphocytes. |
