Distinct HIV variants occur at the genital mucosa compared to in blood, which may similarly result in differences in HIV T cell responses. There have been no studies of the maturational status of HIV-specific T cells present at the female genital mucosa. This study aimed to characterise HIV-specific cervical immune responses and to determine if compartmentalized immune responses occur in chronic HIV infection by comparing the characteristics of T cells at the cervical mucosa to those in blood. 2014-07-28T08:17:33Z 2014-07-28T08:17:33Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/2712 eng application/pdf Division of Medical Microbiology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
