Abstract:
Objective To analyze the influence of the polymorphisms of human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-Ⅰ molecule and the effects on plasma viral load of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected male homosexual population in Beijing.Methods The HLA-A,HLA-B,HLA-C allele were typed by sequence specific primer-polymerase chain reaction (SSP-PCR),and viral load was detected in 157 chronic HIV infected persons.Normally distributed measurement data were analyzed by one-way or multi-way analysis of variance,while data of abnormal distributions were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test.Results Among 157 chronic HIV infected persons,the number of Bw4 motifs on HLA-B loci was associated with a lower level of viral load (F=3.01,P=0.045).In these HIV infected persons,the viral load in HLA-B carrying Bw4/4 homozygote was (4.19±0.76) lg IU/mL,in HLA-B carrying Bw6/6 homozygote was (4.63±0.74) lg IU/mL (t=2.27,P=0.010).The viral load of those who carried three,one or none Bw4 motifs on HLA-A and HLA-B loci were (3.92± 0.97),(4.54±0.88) and (4.60±0.72) lg IU/mL,respectively (three vs none:t=2.53,P=0.015; three vs one:t=2.11,P=0.039).HIV infected persons who carried homozygote on any loci of HLA-A,HLA-B,HLA-C had comparable levels of plasma viral load to those who carried heterozygote on HLA-A,HLA-B,HLA-C loci.Among the persons who carried heterozygote on HLA-A,HLA B,HLA-C loci,Bw4/4 homozygote on HLA-B had lower levels of viral load than Bw6/6 homozygote on HLA-B (median:4.09 lg IU/mL vs 4.55 lg IU/mL,U=210.50,P=0.041).HIV infected persons who carried A30/B13/C06 or A33/B58/C03 haplotype had comparable levels of plasma viral load to those without A30/B13/C06 or A33/B58/C03 haplotype (t=0.40,P=0.69; t=0.68,P=0.49,respectively).Conclusions Bw4/4 homozygote on HLA-B loci is associated with lower HIV viral load.Furthermore,the plasma viral load of HIV infected persons carrying heterozygote on HLA-A,HLA-B,HLA-C loci could be influenced by the Bw4/4 homozygote on HLA-B locus,with a lower viral load.
