ABSTRACT The current highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART or ART) effectively suppresses de novo HIV‐1 infection but fails to eliminate HIV reservoir cells, which leads to rapid viral rebound upon ART cessation. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells engineered to target HIV‐1 Env⁺ cells offer a promising strategy to eliminate or control these ...

Sex‐Specific Factors Influencing HIV Infection
ABSTRACT Immune responses are key in controlling viral infections such as HIV‐1, which remains a global challenge to public health. X/Y‐chromosome‐encoded genes and sex steroid hormones can modulate immune cells and drive distinct patterns of gene and protein expression involved in antiviral function, impacting sex‐dependent immune responses and ...

ABSTRACT HTLV‐1 infection is a chronic condition associated with the development of malignancies, inflammatory, and neurological disorders. In this study, the causes of hospitalization and mortality were assessed in a cohort of 508 individuals living with HTLV‐1 followed over a 30‐year period. Overall mortality was 8.5% in this population and increased
