Definition

For Retroviridae like human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV), the latent reservoir consists of inactive forms of the provirus that is the DNA version of the viral genome integrated at a random position in the host genome. After infection, HIV rapidly disseminates through the body and HIV reservoir is consisted of one or multiple viral reservoirs (cell types or tissues). Despite the development of successful treatment of HIV-infected individuals and the capacity to reduce HIV in the blood to undetectable levels, it has not been yet possible to eradicate HIV from the body due to the persistence of viral reservoirs. CD4+ T cells are thought to be the most significant cellular reservoir for HIV-1, but other reservoirs can contribute to virus persistence (Brenchley et al. 2004). Furthermore, the establishment of viral persistence and latent reservoirs could also depend on the HIV tropism and differential expression of coreceptor on the surface of cells.
