Title Recurrent HIV-1 integration at the BACH2 locus in resting CD4+ T cell populations during effective highly active antiretroviral therapy.
Author Ikeda T,Shibata J,Yoshimura K,Koito A,Matsushita S
Evidence To determine the contribution of integration sites to viral latency within clinical settings, an inverse polymerase chain reaction method was used to analyze integration sites in CD4(+) T cells from patients showing long-term undetectable plasma viral RNA. Studies of 18 genes in which HIV-1 integrates found them to be actively expressed in resting CD4(+) T cells. On the other hand, integration sites in the alpha satellite region was also identified in some patients, albeit at low frequency. Of particular interest, HIV-1-infected cells with multiple identical integration sites were detected in longitudinal analysis of samples from 3 patients, suggesting that these cells persist for long periods and that clonal expansion may occur. Furthermore, strong integration clusters in the BACH2 gene were observed in 2 patients (31% in patient 1 and 5% in patient 3). Our findings not only raise the possibility of biased target-site integration but also provide mechanistic insights into the long-term persistence of HIV-1.
