ABSTRACT HIV transmission through the female and male reproductive tracts is governed by spatially organized interactions between virions, epithelial barriers, and tissue‐resident immune cells. Imaging approaches have been central to defining these earliest events, progressing from classical histology and immunohistochemistry (IHC) to modern ...

Latency reversal and subsequent elimination of the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) reservoir using a combination of compounds with different mechanisms of action are considered a promising tool for HIV-1 cure.

Interleukin-2 is a potent latency reversal agent in people with treated HIV-1
Eliciting HIV-1 expression from latently infected CD4 + T cells allows these rare reservoir cells to become targets of the immune system and may also result in death of reservoir cells via virus-induced cytopathy.

The HIV Reservoir in the Female Reproductive Tract
ABSTRACT Antiretrovirals can prevent the spread of replicating HIV within the host and decrease the virus in plasma to levels undetectable in clinical assays, and in genital secretions to untransmissible levels. However, during effective treatment with antiretrovirals, infectious HIV persists lifelong because the virus integrates into the host's DNA ...

ABSTRACT Background Pneumocystis jirovecii is an opportunistic fungus responsible for Pneumocystis pneumonia (PJP) in hosts with impaired cell‐mediated immunity, particularly solid organ transplant recipients. The aim of our study was to identify risk factors associated with PJP in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).

The impact of accumulating immune adaptation in circulating strains of HIV‐1
Abstract Background Mutations in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) enable the virus to evade recognition and killing by human leucocyte antigen (HLA)‐restricted T cells. These viral adaptations are specific to the HLA type of individuals and are therefore evident as HLA allele‐HIV sequence associations at the population level. Most studies of

The NF‐κB Signalling Pathway: Mechanisms, Consequences and Therapeutic Targets
ABSTRACT Nuclear Factor‐kappa B (NF‐κB) is a master transcriptional regulator orchestrating critical cellular processes, predominantly immunity and inflammation. However, its aberrant constitutive activation has emerged as a unifying pathogenetic hallmark across diverse malignancies, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammatory diseases.

Targeted bacteriophage T4 nanoparticles reverse HIV-1 latency in human T cell line models
Summary: A major barrier for HIV-1 eradication is the latent virus reservoir containing stably integrated and silent proviruses in CD4+ T cells. Targeted reactivation and removal of this latent reservoir is a potential strategy for HIV-1 cure, but ...
