Abstract
Using the marker Leu2 + Leu7 + to detect the CD8 suppressor cells (CD8 8+CD57+),we have observed that their blood level, which increases afte r primoinfection, during the latent period, increases still further ju st before and when the p24 antigen returns and is present in the blood . Its ratio over cytotoxic CD8+ cells remains high during the AIDS per iod, though the absolute number decreases.
