Transcriptome profiling of 13 HIV positive individuals of variable disease progression from an Indian Cohort

In our cohort study for HIV, we have classified patients in 3 different groups, primarily on the basis latency period- Long term non-progressors (LTNP), Long term non-progressors NON-controllers (LNC), and regular progressors. individuals in these groups differ phenotypically as well as have significantly different levels of CD4+T cell counts and viral loads. Goal of the study is to explore the underlying novel mechanisms behind the differences in different patient classes of HIV using Next-Generation sequencing. Overall design: Transcriptome profiling of three different patient classes of HIV. [contributor] YRGCare, Chennai
