HIV prevalence is increasing worldwide because people on antiretroviral therapy are living longer, although new
infections decreased from 33 million in 2002, to 23 million in 2012. Global AIDS-related deaths peaked at
23 million in 2005, and decreased to 16 million by 2012. An estimated 97 million people in low-income and
middle-income countries had started antiretroviral therapy by 2012. New insights into the mechanisms of latent
infection and the importance of reservoirs of infection might eventually lead to a cure. The role of immune activation
in the pathogenesis of non-AIDS clinical events (major causes of morbidity and mortality in people on antiretroviral
therapy) is receiving increased recognition. Breakthroughs in the prevention of HIV important to public health
include male medical circumcision, antiretrovirals to prevent mother-to-child transmission, antiretroviral therapy in
people with HIV to prevent transmission, and antiretrovirals for pre-exposure prophylaxis. Research into other
prevention interventions, notably vaccines and vaginal microbicides, is in progress.
Epidemiology
The HIV epidemic arose after zoonotic infections with
simian immunodeciency viruses from African
primates; bushmeat hunters were probably the rst
group to be infected with HIV.1 HIV-1 was transmitted
from apes and HIV-2 from sooty mangabey monkeys.1
Four groups of HIV-1 exist and represent three separate
transmission events from chimpanzees (M, N, and O),
and one from gorillas (P). Groups N, O, and P are
restricted to west Africa. Group M, which is the cause of
the global HIV pandemic, started about 100 years ago
and consists of nine subtypes: AD, FH, J, and K.
Subtype C predominates in Africa and India, and
accounted for 48% of cases of HIV-1 in 2007 worldwide.2
Subtype B predominates in western Europe, the
Americas, and Australia. Circulating recombinant
subtypes are becoming more common.2 The marked
genetic diversity of HIV-1 is a consequence of the errorprone function of reverse transcriptase, which results in
a high mutation rate. HIV-2 is largely conned to west
Africa and causes a similar illness to HIV-1, but
immunodeciency progresses more slowly and HIV-2 is
less transmissible.1
In 2012 an estimated 353 million people were living
with HIV.3 Sub-Saharan Africa, especially southern

HIV-1 transmission
The most important factor that increases the risk of sexual
transmission of HIV-1 is the number of copies per mL of
plasma HIV-1 RNA (viral load), with a 24 times increased
risk of sexual transmission for every 1 log10 increase.19
Acute HIV infection, which causes very high plasma viral
loads in the rst few months, is an important driver of
HIV epidemics.20 A reduction in plasma viral load of
07 log10 is estimated to reduce HIV-1 transmission by
50%.21 Seminal and endocervical viral load independently
predict risk of HIV-1 sexual transmission, after adjustment
for plasma viral load.22 Other factors associated with
increased risk of sexual transmission of HIV include
sexually transmitted infections (notably genital ulcers of
any cause,23 herpes simplex type-2 infection,24 and bacterial

Immune dysfunction
The hallmark of HIV infection is the progressive
depletion of CD4 T cells because of reduced production
and increased destruction. CD4 T cells are eliminated by
direct infection,59 and bystander eects of syncitia
formation, immune activation, proliferation, and
senescence. In early infection, a transient reduction in
circulating CD4 T cells is followed by recovery to near
normal concentrations, which then slowly decrease by
about 50100 cells per L (gure 3).
The most important eect on T-cell homoeostasis
happens very early in the gastrointestinal tract, which has a
massive depletion of activated CD4 T cells with minimum
recovery after antiretroviral therapy.60 In addition to loss of
total CD4 T cells, profound changes in T-cell subsets
happen, including preferential loss of T-helper-17 cells,61
and mucosal-associated invariant T cells, which are crucial
for defence against bacteria.62 The profound depletion of
lymphoid cells in the gastrointestinal tract, together with
enterocyte apoptosis, and enhanced gastrointestinal tract
permeability, leads to increased plasma concentration of
microbial products such as lipopolysaccharides.63 Finally,
destruction of the broblastic reticular cell network,
collagen deposition, and restricted access to the T-cell
survival factor interleukin 7 in the lymphoid tissue further
contribute to depletion of both CD4-naive and CD8-naive
T cells.64
Immune activation
HIV infection is also characterised by a marked increase
in immune activation, which includes both the adaptive
and innate immune systems, and abnormalities in
coagulation.65 The drivers for immune activation include
the direct eects of HIV as a ligand for the Toll-like
receptor (TLR7 and TLR 8) expressed on plasmacytoid
dendritic cells, leading to production of interferon-;66
microbial translocation, with lipopolysaccharide as a
potent activator or TLR4 leading to the production of proinammatory cytokines such as interleukin 6 and
tumour necrosis factor (TNF);63 co-infection with
viruses such as cytomegalovirus that induce profound
expansion of activated cytomegalovirus-specic T cells;67
and a reduced ratio of T-helper-17 and regulatory T cells,
especially in the gastrointestinal tract.61
Evidence of residual inammation or increased
immune activation exists, even in patients with HIV
with adequate CD4 T-cell restoration on antiretroviral
therapy (gure 3). Markers of residual inammation in
patients with HIV on antiretroviral therapy have been
signicantly associated with mortality,68 cardiovascular
disease,69 cancer,70 neurological disease,71 and liver
disease.72 Intensication of antiretroviral therapy in
participants with virological suppression with the
addition of the integrase inhibitor raltegravir reduced
T-cell activation in about a third of participants.73 These
data suggest that low-level HIV replication might
contribute to persistent inammation. Treatment of

Antiretroviral therapy
Combination antiretroviral therapy regimens that were
able to suppress viral replication were developed in the
late 1990s and transformed HIV from a progressive
illness with a fatal outcome into a chronic manageable
disease. More than 25 licensed drugs that block HIV
replication at many steps in the virus lifecycle are
available (gure 2). Recommended antiretroviral
therapy regimens are less toxic, more eective, have a
lower pill burden, and are dosed less frequently than
the initial protease inhibitor-based regimens. Standard
antiretroviral therapy regimens combine two nucleoside
reverse transcriptase inhibitors (emtricitabine or
lamivudine together with one of abacavir, tenofovir, or
zidovudine) with a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase
inhibitor, protease inhibitor, or integrase inhibitor.
Several eective nucleoside reverse transcriptase
inhibitor-sparing regimens can be used if intolerance
or resistance to nucleoside reverse transcriptase
inhibitors develops.
After initiation of antiretroviral therapy, the plasma
viral load decreases to concentrations below the lower
limit of detection of available commercial assays in most
people, usually within 3 months (gure 3). By contrast,

Figure 3: Natural history of untreated HIV infection and changes after antiretroviral therapy
(A) In untreated HIV infection, CD4 T cells are progressively lost in blood but CD4 T cells in the gastrointestinal tract are rapidly depleted early on. (B) The acute
response to HIV infection includes a dramatic increase in markers of immune activation and production of non-neutralising antibodies and HIV-specic CD4 and CD8
T cells that are associated temporally with a decrease in HIV RNA in blood. (C) After antiretroviral therapy, HIV RNA signicantly decreases followed by recovery of
CD4 T cells, which varies between individuals (panel). By contrast, recovery of CD4 T cells in the gastrointestinal tract is reduced. (D) With reduction of HIV RNA and
viral antigen, HIV-specic T cells decrease after antiretroviral therapy, whereas antibody persists in all patients. Immune activation decreases after antiretroviral
therapy but in most patients remains signicantly increased compared with healthy controls. GIT=gastrointestinal tract. LPS=lipopolysaccharide.

Mother-to-child HIV-1 transmission
During the past two decades, remarkable progress has
been made in the risk reduction of perinatal HIV-1
transmission. Knowledge about the timing of HIV-1
transmission to infants has allowed the development of
appropriate interventions. The risk of HIV-1 transmission
to the infant is about 25% at delivery in the absence of
interventions, with most of the risk arising after 36 weeks
and especially intrapartum.127 HIV-1 transmission
happens at a rate of 89 per 100 child-years of
breastfeeding after the fourth week,128 with higher rates
during the rst 4 weeks.119 Mixed feeding roughly doubles
the risk of HIV-1 transmission compared with exclusive
breastfeeding.127 Prolonged breastfeeding is the norm in
most resource-poor settings, where the risk of
transmitting HIV-1 to children reached about 40%
without interventions. Recommended mother-to-child
HIV-1 transmission interventions have resulted in a ten
times reduction in this risk, and complete elimination of
mother-to-child HIV-1 transmission is now feasible.
Antiretroviral therapy is the mainstay of prevention of
mother-to-child HIV-1 transmission. Antepartum
zidovudine monotherapy, augmented with one dose of
nevirapine during labour, was an eective and aordable
intervention, but it has been superseded by standard
combination antiretroviral therapy for women who do not
qualify for continuing antiretroviral therapy. Combination

Vaccines
Big challenges face the development of an eective HIV
vaccine, including the genetic diversity of HIV,
uncertainty about what constitutes protective immunity,
and diculty in the development of antigens that are
highly immunogenic. Findings of clinical trials of HIV
vaccines have eliminated several candidate vaccines that
have not shown ecacy. One trial172 of a prime-boost HIV
vaccine strategy that used an adenovirus vector resulted
in an increased rate of HIV infections in the active group
in uncircumcised men and men who had pre-existing
antibodies to the adenovirus vector serotype. The RV144
trial173 done in Thailand, provided the only evidence up to
now that vaccine protection could be achieved with a 31%
reduction in HIV acquisition. Immune correlates of
protection from the RV144 trial,174 together with new
vector approaches that improve the breadth of T-cell
responses and identify targets for broadly neutralising
antibodies, will hopefully result in the development of
more eective vaccines.175
Conclusions
HIV continues to be a major contributor to the global
burden of disease, especially in sub-Saharan Africa.
Antiretroviral therapy is changing the global
epidemiology of HIV by increasing prevalence because
of reductions in AIDS deaths, and is contributing to
decreasing HIV incidence by reduction of the risk of
transmission. HIV incidence in men who have sex with
men is not decreasing despite high antiretroviral therapy
coverage. The drivers of the HIV epidemic in men who
have sex with men include increasing risk behaviour
since the introduction of eective antiretroviral therapy,
the high transmission risk of receptive anal intercourse,
sexual networks, and stigma restricting access to care. In
