Quantitation of HIV-1 RNA levels in plasma and CSF of asymptomatic HIV-1 infected patients from South India using a TaqMan real time PCR assay

Abstract Background Most of the quantitation assays for HIV-1 RNA used currently are designed and optimized for HIV-1 subtype B viruses and hence may not be suitable for India, where the predominant subtype is HIV-1 subtype C. Objectives Development and standardization of HIV-1 TaqMan real time PCR...

description Abstract Background Most of the quantitation assays for HIV-1 RNA used currently are designed and optimized for HIV-1 subtype B viruses and hence may not be suitable for India, where the predominant subtype is HIV-1 subtype C. Objectives Development and standardization of HIV-1 TaqMan real time PCR assay suitable for measuring plasma and CSF viral RNA levels in HIV subtype C infected individuals. Study design A TaqMan real time PCR was developed using primers and probes selected in the gag region for detection of Indian HIV-1 subtype C strain. Plasma ( n = 120) and CSF samples ( n = 46) obtained from HIV infected subjects were used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. A comparative evaluation was carried out with a commercially available quantitative HIV viral load assay (Roche Amplicor Version 1.5). Results The TaqMan assay was able to amplify all HIV-1 group M subtypes except subtype E. Viral loads could be estimated in all the plasma ( n = 120) and 40/46 CSF samples obtained from HIV positive subjects. Sensitivity of this assay was found to be 180 copies/ml. Correlation with the commercially available viral load assay was very good ( r = 0.885). Conclusions A TaqMan real time PCR was standardized for HIV-1 subtype C and it was more sensitive (180 copies/ml) than standard Amplicor monitor assay, Version 1.5 (400 copies/ml).
