Protease Inhibitors Do Not Affect Antibody Responses to Pneumococcal Vaccination.
    Clinical and vaccine immunology : CVI, 2016, Volume: 23, Issue:6

    HIV(+) subjects on optimal antiretroviral therapy have persistently impaired antibody responses to pneumococcal vaccination. We explored the possibility that this effect may be due to HIV protease inhibitors (PIs). We found that in humans and mice, PIs do not affect antibody production in response to pneumococcal vaccination.
