Determinant of HIV-1 mutational escape from cytotoxic T lymphocytes. [PDF]
CD8+ class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) usually incompletely suppress HIV-1 in vivo, and while analogous partial suppression induces antiretroviral drug-resistance mutations, epitope escape mutations are inconsistently observed.

Complex interplay of kinetic factors governs the synergistic properties of HIV-1 entry inhibitors. [PDF]
The homotrimeric HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) undergoes receptor-triggered structural changes that mediate viral entry through membrane fusion. This process is inhibited by chemokine receptor antagonists (CoRAs) that block Env-receptor interactions ...

Tumor‐tropic human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were used as delivery vehicles for magnetotheranostic gold–iron oxide nanoflowers. Magnetic particle imaging of the iron component demonstrated widespread intratumoral distribution and sustained retention in contrast to injection of naked nanoflowers.

Expanding the clinical and immunological phenotypes of COPB1 deficiency
PurposeCOPB1 encodes the coatomer subunit beta protein, which is essential for brain development and intracellular protein trafficking. Homozygous mutations cause Baralle–Macken syndrome that characterized by global developmental delay, severe ...

Pre-emptive Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Ataxia Telangiectasia
Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a primary immunodeficiency with mutations in the gene encoding the A-T mutated (ATM) protein that interacts with immune, hematopoietic, and endocrine targets resulting in broad multi-systemic clinical manifestations with a ...

Several Combined Immunodeficiency
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) arises from problems in the development of hematopoietic stem cells leading to mature T lymphocytes. Certain genotypes may affect additional lymphoid lineages. In 2014, the Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium released guidelines for diagnosing SCID, which have now been updated to include modern ...

Cold Quad‐Modal Nanocomplex for Precise and Quantitative In Vivo Stem Cell Tracking
Multimodal albumin–bismuth sulfide–superparamagnetic iron oxide (ABS) nanocomplexes are developed for stem cell tracking across four different imaging modalities: MRI, MPI, MSOT, and CT. Combining its flexibility with high sensitivity, this quad‐modal imaging agent enables a robust quantification of ABS‐labeled stem cells in vivo.

Cellulose acetate phthalate, a common pharmaceutical excipient, inactivates HIV-1 and blocks the coreceptor binding site on the virus envelope glycoprotein gp120 [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), a pharmaceutical excipient used for enteric film coating of capsules and tablets, was shown to inhibit infection by the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and several herpesviruses. CAP formulations

Newborn screening for severe combined immunodeficiency: a primer for clinicians
KEY POINTS Severe combined immunodeficiency is caused by genetic defects that profoundly impair development of the immune system.[1][1],[2][2] The condition is fatal early in life if affected infants do not receive therapy to restore immune function in ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...
