Scope note

  • Infected individuals with naturally low levels of pathogen replication (e.g., HIV LONG-TERM SURVIVORS with low VIRAL LOAD of HIV) and remain healthy. Some elite controllers have immune systems which prevent disease progression (e.g., high CD4 COUNTS). Studies of how they remain disease-free may contribute to development of new therapeutic approaches and targets.
