Outline of Final Research Achievements

HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells are required for immune suppression of HIV-1 replication and elimination of the viral reservoirs. However, effective priming method of functional HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells from naïve T cells remains unclear. The present study demonstrated that STING ligand cGAMP effectively induced functional HIV-specific CD8+ T cells with ability to suppress HIV-1 from naive T cells. These finding suggest that STING ligand is useful for AIDS vaccines and cure treatment.
