Frequency of latently infected, resting CD4+ T cells carrying HIV-1 proviral DNA (A) and cell-associated, unspliced HIV-1 RNA (B) from viremic and aviremic patients. Freshly isolated, resting CD4+ T cells were subjected to real-time PCR for detection of HIV-1 proviral DNA and cell-associated HIV-1 RNA. The geometric mean values are shown as black bars.
