Atlas of the HIV-1 Reservoir in Peripheral CD4 T Cells of Individuals on Successful Antiretroviral Therapy

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Knowing the mechanisms that govern the persistence of infected CD4+ subpopulations could help us to design new therapies to cure HIV-1 infection. We evaluated the simultaneous distribution of the HIV-1 reservoir in 13 CD4+ subpopulations from 14 HIV-1 ...

HIV-1: To Splice or Not to Splice, That Is the Question

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The transcription of the HIV-1 provirus results in only one type of transcript—full length genomic RNA. To make the mRNA transcripts for the accessory proteins Tat and Rev, the genomic RNA must completely splice.

HIV-1 Prevention for HIV-1 Serodiscordant Couples [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent HIV/AIDS Reports, 2012
A substantial proportion of HIV-1 infected individuals in sub-Saharan Africa are in stable relationships with HIV-1 uninfected partners, and HIV-1 serodiscordant couples thus represent an important target population for HIV-1 prevention. Couple-based HIV-1 testing and counseling facilitates identification of HIV-1 serodiscordant couples, counseling ...

HIV-1 transmission and acute HIV-1 infection [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2001
An understanding of the central events in the transmission of HIV-1 infection is critical to the development of effective strategies to prevent infection. Although the main routes of transmission have been known for some time, surprisingly little is known about the factors that influence the likelihood of transmitting or acquiring HIV-1 infection. Once

Acute HIV-1 Infection [PDF]

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2011
In 2009, the United Nations estimated that 33.2 million people worldwide were living with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection and that 2.6 million people had been newly infected.1 The need for effective HIV-1 prevention has never been greater.

HIV-1 Envelope Glycan Moieties Modulate HIV-1 Transmission [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2014
ABSTRACT The HIV-1 envelope protein (Env) is heavily glycosylated, with approximately 50% of the Env molecular mass being contributed by N -glycans. HIV-1 Env N -glycans shield the protein backbone and have been shown to play key roles in determining Env structure, surface exposure,

Weak SARS-CoV-2-specific responses of TIGIT-expressing CD8+ T cells in people living with HIV after a third dose of a SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2023
. Background:. T-cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif domains (TIGIT), an inhibitory receptor expressed on T cells, plays a dysfunctional role in antiviral infection and antitumor activity.

Targeting the HIV reservoir: chimeric antigen receptor therapy for HIV cure

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2023
. Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) can reduce the viral load in the plasma to undetectable levels in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, ART alone cannot completely eliminate HIV due to its integration into the host cell genome ...

The RNA surveillance proteins UPF1, UPF2 and SMG6 affect HIV-1 reactivation at a post-transcriptional level

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2018
Background The ability of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to form a stable viral reservoir is the major obstacle to an HIV-1 cure and post-transcriptional events contribute to the maintenance of viral latency.
