Differential impairment of lytic and cytokine functions in senescent human immunodeficiency virus type 1-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Telomere length is abnormally short in the CD8(+) T-cell compartment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected persons, likely because of chronic cell turnover. Although clonal exhaustion of CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) has been proposed as a mechanism for loss of antigen-speci...
