VNPs have decreased HIV infection of central memory and stem cell memory T cells.

CD4+ TEM cells (left), TCM (center), and TSCM (right) from VNPs and PPs were sorted by flow cytometry and quantitaive real-time PCR was used to determine the HIV infection frequency in each subset. Infection frequency was determined by copies of gag DNA/100 infected cells. p values from Mann Whitney T test (VNPs vs PPs) or paired T test (TCM vs TEM within PP cohort). Line reflects median. Circles, VNPs; Squares, PPs.
