Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is the major risk factor predisposing for Mycobacterium tuberculosis progression from latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) to tuberculosis disease (TB). Since long-term-treated aviremic HIV-infected individuals remained at higher risk of developing TB than HIV-uninfected individuals, we hypothesized that progression from LTBI to pulmonary TB (PTB) might be due not only to CD4 T-cell depletion but also to M. tuberculosis-specific CD4 T-cell functional impairment. To test this hypothesis, M. tuberculosis-specific T-cell frequencies and cytokine profiles were investigated in untreated Tanzanian individuals suffering from LTBI (n = 20) or PTB (n = 67) and compared to those of untreated M. tuberculosis/HIV-coinfected individuals suffering from LTBI (n = 15) or PTB (n = 10). We showed that HIV infection significantly reduced the proportion of Th2 (interleukin 4 [IL-4]/IL-5/IL-13) producing M. tuberculosis-specific CD4 T cells and IL-2-producing M. tuberculosis-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells in individuals with LTBI or PTB (P
