We demonstrate that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL)
suppress HIV-1 replication in primary lymphocytes, monocytes, and
dendritic cells individually. Viral inhibition is significantly
diminished in lymphocyte-dendritic cell clusters, suggesting that these
clusters in vivo could be sites where viral replication is more
difficult to control by CTL.
