Mapping the domains of CD134 as a functional receptor for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The feline homologue of CD134 (fCD134) is the primary binding receptor for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), targeting the virus preferentially to activated CD4+ helper T cells.

Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) molecular epidemiology in non-human primates from West Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It is now scientifically proved that the human immunodeficiency viruses, HIV-1 and HIV-2, are the results of cross-species transmissions of the simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIV) that naturally infect non-human primates in sub- Saharan Africa ...

Induction of cytolytic T lymphocytes directed towards the V3 loop of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 external glycoprotein gp120 by p55gag/V3 chimeric vaccinia viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
T cell-mediated cytotoxicity may play an important role in controlling infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In order to study the ability of rationally designed antigens to induce cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTLs) we replaced stretches of 30 to ...

The role of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in infection with feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Infection with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) leads to the development of a disease state similar to AIDS in man. Recent studies have identified the chemokine receptor CXCR4 as the major receptor for cell culture-adapted strains of FIV, suggesting ...

Evolution of replication efficiency following infection with a molecularly cloned feline immunodeficiency virus of low virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The development of an effective vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus is considered to be the most practicable means of controlling the advancing global AIDS epidemic.

Heterologous prime-boost-boost immunisation of Chinese cynomolgus macaques using DNA and recombinant poxvirus vectors expressing HIV-1 virus-like particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: There is renewed interest in the development of poxvirus vector-based HIV vaccines due to the protective effect observed with repeated recombinant canarypox priming with gp120 boosting in the recent Thai placebo-controlled trial.

Protection of stem cell-derived lymphocytes in a primate AIDS gene therapy model after in vivo selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: There is currently no effective AIDS vaccine, emphasizing the importance of developing alternative therapies. Recently, a patient was successfully transplanted with allogeneic, naturally resistant CCR5-negative (CCR5 delta 32) cells, setting ...

The Impact of Domestic Public Health Spending on Health Outcomes in Sub‐Saharan Africa: Evidence From Disability‐Adjusted Life Years

open access: yesThe International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) continues to experience a high and uneven disease burden, mainly from HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. As external funding declines, the strategic allocation of domestic public health spending (DPHS) becomes crucial.

Contribution of endosomal proteins EHD1 and EHD4 to the HIV‐1 replication cycle

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
EHD1 and EHD4, two key trafficking proteins, regulate multiple stages of HIV‐1 infection: In producer cells, they help produce fully infectious virus particles, regulate Envelope protein incorporation in a cell‐type‐dependent manner, and limit the accumulation of antiviral IFITM proteins in virions.

N-terminally myristoylated feline foamy virus Gag allows Env-independent budding of sub-viral particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Foamy viruses (FVs) are distinct retroviruses classified as Spumaretrovirinae in contrast to the other retroviruses, the Orthoretrovirinae. As a unique feature of FVs, Gag is not sufficient for sub-viral particle (SVP) release. In primate and feline FVs (
