Persistence of lamivudine-sensitive HIV-1 quasispecies in the presence of lamivudine in vitro and in vivo
Article Abstract:
The changes in viral populations in HIV-1-infected patients treated with zidovudine/lamivudine and subsequent failing therapy are analyzed. The analysis has shown that lamivudine-sensitive and lamivudine-resistant HIV-1 variants are able to persist despite highly unfavorable conditions in vivo and in vitro and that selective advantages of viral variants can change depending on the complexity of other simultaneously replicating viral variants.
