CD4 and AIDS: Because individuals infected with HIV-1 produce a monoclonal antibody, 3F5, which binds to and inactivates α1PI, a process that prevents α1PI from binding to HLE-CS, thereby blocking locomotion of immature T cells through the thymus to generate CD4+ T cells, we further propose that HIV-1 vaccination should include induction of an antibody that binds to and blocks 3F5 activity, thereby preventing AIDS in addition to the current vaccine strategy for preventing HIV-1 infection.
