  • Genetic associations of the vitamin D and antiviral pathways with natural resistance to HIV-1 infection are influenced by interpopulation variability

    Another factor that might explain the heterogeneity observed among the populations is the route of HIV-1 exposure. In fact, protective factors can be different depending on the HIV-1 transmission route (Baggaley et al., 2006; Cohen et al., 2000; Martin et al., 2004; Royce et al., 1997). However, some heterogeneity still remains when comparing sexually-exposed Colombian and Italian cohorts making challenging to conclude to this respect.

    However, one would expect reduced viral load in the ranula fluid than in the concomitant patient's blood. Indeed, the viral load in normal saliva is reported to be minimal compared with the corresponding viremia.20,21 In the present study, it was found that 6 of the 14 specimens had HIV-1 RNA copies higher than their respective blood samples.
