HIV-1 latency in proliferating T cells [PDF]

, 2013
In this thesis we focus on the ability of HIV-1 to establish a latent provirus in proliferating T cells and on how the silent provirus can be activated from latency. HIV-1 latency is a major barrier towards virus eradication from the infected individual.

Nucleolar protein NOP2/NSUN1 suppresses HIV-1 transcription and promotes viral latency by competing with Tat for TAR binding and methylation.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
Recent efforts have been paid to identify previously unrecognized HIV-1 latency-promoting genes (LPGs) that can potentially be targeted for eradication of HIV-1 latent reservoirs. From our earlier orthologous RNAi screens of host factors regulating HIV-1

Mental health measures among adolescents in 12 low‐ and middle‐income countries: Measurement invariance and cross‐sectional analyses of Disrupting Harm survey data

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Nationally representative mental health data in adolescents from low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) are scarce. This study aimed to examine mental health and wellbeing indicators amongst adolescents in 12 LMICs across Eastern and Southern Africa and Southeast Asia. Methods We conducted a secondary analysis of data involving 12,

Associations between health care access and posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms among rural and urban lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer adults

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) individuals experience elevated rates of trauma exposure, minority stress, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Yet, research examining how geographic location and LGBTQ+ identity shape PTSD outcomes is scant, particularly studies considering structural facilitators and barriers ...

Combinatorial Latency Reactivation for HIV-1 Subtypes and Variants [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2010
ABSTRACT The eradication of HIV-1 will likely require novel clinical approaches to purge the reservoir of latently infected cells from a patient. We hypothesize that this therapy should target a wide range of latent integration sites, act effectively against viral variants that have acquired mutations in their ...

SUN2 Modulates HIV-1 Infection and Latency through Association with Lamin A/C To Maintain the Repressive Chromatin

mBio, 2018
The postintegrational latency of HIV-1 is characterized by reversible silencing of long terminal repeat (LTR)-driven transcription of the HIV genome. It is known that the formation of repressive chromatin at the 5′-LTR of HIV-1 proviral DNA impedes viral

Intersectional discrimination, identity conflict, and posttraumatic stress symptoms among bisexual+ people of color

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Bisexual and other multigender‐attracted (e.g., pansexual, queer) people (bi+) report disproportionately high posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) linked to a high frequency of discrimination and general trauma exposure. Bi+ people of color (POC) may be particularly vulnerable to PTSS given exposure to intersectional discrimination (e.g ...

Regulation of HIV-1 latency by T-cell activation [PDF]

Cytokine, 2007
HIV-infected patients harbor approximately 10(5)-10(6) memory CD4 T-cells that contain fully integrated but transcriptionally silent HIV proviruses. While small in number, these latently infected cells form a drug-insensitive reservoir that importantly contributes to the life-long persistence of HIV despite highly effective antiviral therapy. In tissue

The RING-CH ligase K5 antagonizes restriction of KSHV and HIV-1 particle release by mediating ubiquitin-dependent endosomal degradation of tetherin [PDF]

, 2010
Tetherin (CD317/BST2) is an interferon-induced membrane protein that inhibits the release of diverse enveloped viral particles. Several mammalian viruses have evolved countermeasures that inactivate tetherin, with the prototype being the HIV-1 Vpu ...

Bevacizumab‐Associated Eczema Herpeticum in Metastatic Ovarian Carcinoma: A Case Report

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eczema herpeticum (EH) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening cutaneous infection caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV), classically associated with atopic dermatitis. Its occurrence in oncology patients receiving anti‐angiogenic targeted therapy and cytotoxic chemotherapy is exceedingly uncommon.
