Abstract
Prophylactic AIDS vaccines are required to optimally load adaptive immune responses against a virus optimally designed to impair those responses and induce persistent infection. This inevitably may necessitate atypical induction patterns that are distinct from well-balanced responses deriving from the inherent immunological framework. This review discusses how the diverse features of pathologic context-dependent T-cell (CTL/Th) and B-cell (neutralizing antibody) responses may be incorporated into vaccine-induced immunity to achieve HIV control in vivo.
