HIV-1 cDNA pre-integration complexes persist for weeks in macrophages and remain transcriptionally active. While previous work has focused on the transcription of HIV-1 genes; our understanding of the cellular milieu that accompanies viral production is ...

Mathematical analysis and potential therapeutic implications of a novel HIV-1 model of basal and activated transcription in T-cells and macrophages [PDF]
HIV-1 affects tens of millions of people worldwide. Current treatments often involve a cocktail of antiretroviral drugs, which are effective in reducing the virus and extending life spans. However, there is currently no FDA-approved HIV-1 transcription inhibitor. Furthermore, there have only been a few attempts to model the transcription process in HIV-

Enhancement of HIV-1 proteinase activity by HIV-1 reverse transcriptase
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) was found to increase the activity of HIV-1 proteinase in vitro and in eukaryotic cells. The effect of RT on proteinase activity was dose-dependent and independent of pH or salt concentration. The cleavage of sequences corresponding to all the naturally occurring cleavage sites that could be tested in vitro was enhanced.

Endocytic entry of HIV-1 [PDF]
Enveloped viruses enter target cells by membrane fusion or endocytosis. In the latter case, fusion of the viral envelope is induced by the acidic pH of the endocytic vesicle [1]. As with most other retroviruses, entry of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is thought to be exclusively by pH-independent membrane fusion after interaction of its ...

This work presents an injectable polymer‐nanoparticle hydrogel depot platform for delivering multivalent influenza vaccines which induces stronger and more durable immune responses. The technology provides broader protection, including against heterologous and potential pandemic strains (H5N1, H7N9, H9N2), and enhances the effectiveness of commercial ...

This study uses gut microbiome data to predict corticosteroid response in patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Fecal samples from 212 patients with ITP are sequenced. Six machine‐learning algorithms are used to train predictive models. The support vector machine‐based model integrated clinical data and selected microbial species, diversities ...

Deleterious synonymous mutations hitchhike to high frequency in HIV-1 env evolution [PDF]
Intrapatient HIV-1 evolution is dominated by selection on the protein level in the arms race with the adaptive immune system. When cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells or neutralizing antibodies target a new epitope, the virus often escapes via nonsynonymous mutations that impair recognition. Synonymous mutations do not affect this interplay and are often assumed to

A Knowledge‐Guided Graph Learning Approach Bridging Phenotype‐ and Target‐Based Drug Discovery
Knowledge‐Guided Drug Relational Predictor (KGDRP), a graph representation learning approach, effectively integrates multiple omics data, including biological network data, gene expression data, and sequence data that incorporates chemical molecular structures.

DAPK3 is Essential for DBP‐Induced Autophagy of Mouse Leydig Cells
This study has confirmed that death‐associated protein kinase 3 (DAPK3) is essential for dibutyl phthalate (DBP)‐induced autophagy of mouse Leydig cells, and is regulated by both transcription factor specific protein 2 (Sp2) and parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase (PRKN), and melatonin can alleviate DBP‐induced autophagy of the cells.
