ABSTRACT
Objective To explore distribution of HIV gene subtypes among newly reported HIV/AIDS cases from China and Myanmar in Dehong Dai and Jingpo prefecture of Yunnan province in 2016.Methods We conducted DNA extractions from newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in 2016.The gag,env and pol genes were amplified by using reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) and sequenced to identify HIV subtypes.Results A total of 1 112 newly diagnosed HIV cases were reported in Dehong in 2016,and the HIV subtypes were identified for 860 cases.Subtype C was predominant (33.6%),followed by unique recombinant forms (URFs) (28.4%),CRF01_AE (18.6%) and so on.URFs include four recombination,among which the recombination of CRF01 AE and C subtype were predominant.The HIV subtype distribution was associated with nationality and transmission route in HIV/AIDS cases from Myanmar.Conclusions The gene subtypes of C,URFs and CRF01_AE were mainly distributed;distribution of URFs remained complex and diverse among newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Dehong in 2016.
