HIV persistence in the setting of antiretroviral therapy: when, where and how does HIV hide?

open access: yesJournal of Virus Eradication, 2015
Advances in the treatment of HIV infection have dramatically reduced the death rate from AIDS and improved the quality of life of many HIV-infected individuals. However, the possible long-term toxicity associated with antiretroviral therapy (ART), stigma

Immunoinformatics‐Based Design of a Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Targeting a Conserved Copper–Associated Protein in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.

Antibody-dependent enhancement of HIV-1 infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) is the process by which virus-specific antibodies enhance entry or replication of a virus, leading to increased infection and the potential to exacerbate disease progression or severity. In terms of HIV infection, ADE

The immunologic and epigenomic regulation of HIV-1 persistence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Curing HIV-1 is challenging due to the presence and persistence of CD4+ T cells harboring HIV-1 proviruses. Understanding the epigenetic and transcriptional regulation that enables HIV-1 to persist despite antiretroviral therapy (ART) and immune pressure

Regulatory harmonization: Evolution, globalization and future directions

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Regulatory harmonization has become an increasingly important and accepted approach to streamline regulatory review processes and expedite access to safe, effective and high‐quality medicines globally. This review explores the evolution and current status of regulatory harmonization, convergence and reliance initiatives.

Comparison of HIV-1 specific T cell immunity in the female genital tract and blood of HIV-infected women : impact of in vitro T cell expansion on HIV-specific T cell specificity, maturational status and functional complexity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 161-184).This study shows that HIV-specific cervical T cells can be isolated by cytobrushing and in vitro polyclonal expansion is a useful approach to increase the number of T cells available from mucosal sites.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

RNA‐centric world of retroviruses: unravelling the molecular strategies of genomic RNA packaging

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retroviruses constitute a unique group of RNA viruses that have profoundly influenced both evolutionary trajectories and biomedical research. Their ability to reverse transcribe and integrate into host genomes has shaped genomic architecture across species and contributed to our understanding of oncogenes, gene regulation, and RNA biology ...

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

Viral and Latent Reservoir Persistence in HIV-1 Infected Patients on Therapy

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2005
Despite many years of potent antiretroviral therapy, latently infected cells and low levels of plasma virus have been found to persist in HIV-infected patients. The factors influencing this persistence and their relative contributions have not been fully elucidated and remain controversial.
