CD160 and PD-1 co-expression on HIV-specific CD8 T cells defines a subset with advanced dysfunction.

Chronic viral infections lead to persistent CD8 T cell activation and functional exhaustion. Expression of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) has been associated to CD8 T cell dysfunction in HIV infection.
