In vivo virulence of MHC-adapted AIDS virus serially-passaged through MHC-mismatched hosts.

CD8+ T-cell responses exert strong suppressive pressure on HIV replication and select for viral escape mutations. Some of these major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I)-associated mutations result in reduction of in vitro viral replicative capacity. While these mutations can revert after vir...
