Transmission of highly virulent CXCR4 tropic HIV-1 through the mucosal route in an individual with a wild-type CCR5 genotype
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Nearly all transmitted/founder (T/F) HIV-1 are CCR5 (R5)-tropic. While previous evidence suggested that CXCR4 (X4)-tropic HIV-1 are transmissible, virus detection and characterization were not at the earliest stages of acute infection. METHODS: T cells using pseudovirus and infectious molecular clones. CD4 subset dynamics were analyzed using flow cytometry. Viral load in each CD4 subset was quantified using cell-associated HIV RNA assay and total and integrated HIV DNA assay. FINDINGS: T cell activation was observed over time. This X4-tropic T/F virus is resistant to broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) targeting V1/V2 and V3 regions, while most of the R5 T/F viruses in the same cohort are sensitive to the same panel of bNAbs. INTERPRETATION: X4-tropic HIV-1 is transmissible through mucosal route in people with wild-type CCR5 genotype. The CD4 subset tropism of HIV-1 may be an important determinant for HIV-1 transmissibility and virulence. FUNDING: Institute of Human Virology, National Institutes of Health, Henry M.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
