A picture is emerging of how HIV subverts a normal immunological surveillance mechanism
to establish primary infection. This involves the infection of dendritic cells at mucosal
surfaces: as these cells then mature, they transport the virus to lymphoid tissue, where viral
replication begins and infection of CD4+ T cells occurs.
