Savita Nair, Wibke Bayer, Mickaƫl JY Ploquin, George Kassiotis, Kim J Hasenkrug, Ulf Dittmer Retrovirology 2011, 8:76 (26 September 2011) In this review, we discuss contributions from the major CD4+ T cell subpopulations to retroviral immunity. Fundamental concepts obtained from studies on numerous viral infections are presented along with a more detailed analysis of studies on murine Friend virus. The relevance of these studies to HIV immunology and immunotherapy is reviewed.

Life and death as a T lymphocyte: from immune protection to HIV pathogenesis Nienke Vrisekoop, Judith N Mandl, Ronald N Germain Journal of Biology 2009, 8:91 (27 November 2009) Vrisekekoop, Mandl and Germain discuss the consequences of deleting activated CD4 T cells both in HIV infected humans and in engineered mice described in a paper published in Journal of Biology, and how both the similarities and the differences may be instructive.
