Abstract: aviremic and viremic patients also co-expressed the CD32a marker (90% of all infected cells), while most of CD32a single positive cells were absent from the B cell follicle, one of the major reservoirs for HIV.HIV infection of unstimulated pbmcs and cervico-vaginal histocultures upregulated the expression of CD32 in approximately 10-20% of all infected cells.CD32+ infected cells expressed more frequently the activation marker HLA-DR compared to CD32-infected cells (92% vs 77%) and the immune check-point PD-1 (46% vs 25%).Conclusions: CD32 is preferentially detected in HIV transcriptionally active cells in tissues after ART and was identified to be co-expressed with activation markers in in vitro infected cells suggesting its expression is also associate with active HIV-infected cells.
