We studied 684 sera obtained from 20 hemophilia patients with AIDS/AIDS-related complex (ARC), 89 asymptomatic HIV+, 76 HIV- hemophilia patients and 151 healthy controls for antibodies against recombinant CD4 (rCD4). Twenty-two percent of AIDS/ARC patients, 10% of asymptomatic HIV+ patients, 17% of HIV-patients, and 1% of healthy controls had anti-rCD4 antibodies. Purified anti-rCD4 antibodies did not react with human CD4+ lymphocytes. This may explain why formation of anti-rCD4 antibodies correlated neither with the occurrence of autoantibodies against CD4+ lymphocytes nor with a decrease in CD4+ cell counts. Antibodies that were eluted from CD4+ lymphocytes after sequential adsorption and elution with separated CD8+ and CD4+ cells reacted with CD4+ lymphocytes of only some healthy individuals, suggesting diversity of CD4 expression.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007141 Immunoglobulin Fc Fragments Crystallizable fragments composed of the carboxy-terminal halves of both IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS linked to each other by disulfide bonds. Fc fragments contain the carboxy-terminal parts of the heavy chain constant regions that are responsible for the effector functions of an immunoglobulin (COMPLEMENT fixation, binding to the cell membrane via FC RECEPTORS, and placental transport). This fragment can be obtained by digestion of immunoglobulins with the proteolytic enzyme PAPAIN.

D006377 T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer Subpopulation of CD4+ lymphocytes that cooperate with other lymphocytes (either T or B) to initiate a variety of immune functions. For example, helper-inducer T-cells cooperate with B-cells to produce antibodies to thymus-dependent antigens and with other subpopulations of T-cells to initiate a variety of cell-mediated immune functions.

D000163 Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome An acquired defect of cellular immunity associated with infection by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), a CD4-positive T-lymphocyte count under 200 cells/microliter or less than 14% of total lymphocytes, and increased susceptibility to opportunistic infections and malignant neoplasms. Clinical manifestations also include emaciation (wasting) and dementia. These elements reflect criteria for AIDS as defined by the CDC in 1993.
