The presence of neutralizing antibodies against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) was investigated in sera from 73 HIV-1 seropositive subjects at different clinical stages. Virus neutralization was measured as survival of MT-4 cells in a 6-7 day microassay. Sixty-three sera were also tested for antibodies inducing virus-specific antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Neutralizing antibodies were found in 59% of sera tested, the positivity rate being 50% (9/17) in asymptomatic subjects, 67% (12/18) in patients with persistent generalized lymphadenopathy (PGL) and 54% (14/26) in AIDS patients (not significant differences). ADCC antibodies were present in 43% of the sera. Neutralizing antibodies and ADCC-inducing antibodies were found simultaneously in 35% (22/63) of the sera. Neutralizing antibodies alone were found in 22% (14/63) and ADCC antibodies alone in 6% (4/63) of the sera tested. Thirty-seven per cent (23/63) of the sera were negative for both types of antibodies, 62% of the sera with neutralizing antibodies also had ADCC inducing antibodies and 85% of the sera with ADCC antibodies had neutralizing antibodies. The titres of ADCC antibodies were higher than those of neutralizing antibodies. Thus, the presence of ADCC antibodies was related to the presence of neutralizing antibodies, but no correlation was found between the titres of these antibodies in sera positive for both activities.

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.

D000386 AIDS-Related Complex A prodromal phase of infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Laboratory criteria separating AIDS-related complex (ARC) from AIDS include elevated or hyperactive B-cell humoral immune responses, compared to depressed or normal antibody reactivity in AIDS; follicular or mixed hyperplasia in ARC lymph nodes, leading to lymphocyte degeneration and depletion more typical of AIDS; evolving succession of histopathological lesions such as localization of Kaposi's sarcoma, signaling the transition to the full-blown AIDS.

D000920 Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitized effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IMMUNOGLOBULIN G whose Fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing Fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional B- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent.
