Springer, the Latham Professor of Pathology, and Bleul, a fellow in pathology at the Center for Blood Research, found that the T-tropic strain attacks a different portion of the immune system than does an earlier strain of HIV, called M-tropic strain...
Matured T cells have been taught to locate invaders which express the receptor for the M-tropic strain. Those that are not able to spot invaders--native T cells--express the receptor for the T-tropic strain...
