Abstract

The hallmark of chronic viral infections is a progressive exhaustion of antigenโ€specific CD8^+^ T cells that leads to persisting viral replication. It is generally believed that exhaustion is a consequence of the accumulation of multiple inhibitory receptors on CD8^+^ T cells that makes them dysfunctional. Here, we show that during human chronic HIVโ€1 infection, a CD8^+^ Tโ€cell positive costimulatory pathway mediated by DNAXโ€activating moleculeโ€1 is also disrupted. Thus, DNAXโ€activating moleculeโ€1 downregulation on CD8^+^ T cells aggravates the impairment of CTL effector function in chronic HIVโ€1 infection.

## Abstract Chronic HIVโ€1 infection can induce a significant decrease in CD127 expression on CD8 T cells, but the underlying mechanisms and immunological consequences are unclear. In this study, we investigated CD127 expression on CD8 T cells from a total of 51 HIVโ€1โ€infected subjects and 16 health
