We found that most peripheral CD4 cells co-express a low density of CD8
alpha antigen in African green monkeys (AGM). Further, the cell surface
expression of CD4 and the expression of CD4 mRNA underwent a decrease when
purified CD4CD8low cells were cultured with mitogen and IL-2. These
observations suggest that AGM CD4 cells are subject to loss of CD4
expression after lymphocyte activation. Part of the peripheral CD8 fraction
exhibited a significant helper activity which suggested the phenotypic
conversion in helper T cells from CD4+ to CD4- in vivo. Simian
immunodeficiency virus (SIV) grew well in CD4 panning cells following SIV
infection. In contrast, CD4CD8low cells were resistant to SIV infection
after their conversion to CD4- cells.
