CTL to HIV-1: Surrogates or sirens

Bonnie J. Mathieson1

1Division of AIDS, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA

The generation of cytotoxic T lymphocyte response may be an essential part of an effective immune response to HIV infection. It may also do more harm than good (pages 330−336).
