Allo-HSCT with CCR5Δ32/Δ32 donor cells is the only curative HIV-1 intervention. We investigated the impact of allo-HSCT on the viral reservoir in PBMCs and post-mortem tissue in two patients.

Persistent HIV-1 replication during antiretroviral therapy [PDF]
The present review will highlight some of the recent findings regarding the capacity of HIV-1 to replicate during antiretroviral therapy (ART).Although ART is highly effective at inhibiting HIV replication, it is not curative. Several mechanisms contribute to HIV persistence during ART, including HIV latency, immune dysfunction, and perhaps persistent ...

Glycan heterogeneity as a cause of the persistent fraction in HIV-1 neutralization [PDF]
Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) to multiple epitopes on the HIV-1-envelope glycoprotein (Env) have been isolated from infected persons. The potency of NAbs is measured more often than the size of the persistent fraction o f infectivity at maximum neutralization, which may also influence ...

An ultrasensitive planar array p24 Gag ELISA to detect HIV-1 in diverse biological matrixes
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) persistence in the presence of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has halted the development of curative strategies. Measuring HIV persistence is complex due to the low frequency of cells containing virus in vivo. Most of

The use of HIV-1 integration site analysis information in clinical studies aiming at HIV cure
The mechanisms for the establishment and the persistence of the latent HIV-1 reservoir remain to be completely defined. HIV-1 infection is characterised by the integration of the reverse transcribed proviral DNA into the host's genome.

Cellular Determinants of HIV Persistence on Antiretroviral Therapy [PDF]
International audienceThe era of antiretroviral therapy has made HIV-1 infection a manageable chronic disease for those with access to treatment. Despite treatment, virus persists in tissue reservoirs seeded with long-lived infected cells that are ...

Inhibition of HIV-1 gene transcription by KAP1 in myeloid lineage
HIV-1 latency generates reservoirs that prevent viral eradication by the current therapies. To find strategies toward an HIV cure, detailed understandings of the molecular mechanisms underlying establishment and persistence of the reservoirs are needed ...

Molecular monitoring of HIV-1 drug resistance in Ifakara HIV-1 Cohort, Tanzania [PDF]
HIV-1 resistance is one of the problems affecting success of antiretroviral therapy programmes worldwide. Many studies on efficacy of ART programmes, specifically on drug resistance, have been conducted in developed countries but not in developing ...

Cellular Reservoirs of HIV-1 and their Role in Viral Persistence [PDF]
A major obstacle in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) eradication is the ability of the virus to remain latent in a subpopulation of the cells it infects. Latently infected cells can escape the viral immune response and persist for long periods of time, despite the presence of successful highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Given the

Hybrid Spreading Mechanisms and T Cell Activation Shape the Dynamics of HIV-1 Infection [PDF]
HIV-1 can disseminate between susceptible cells by two mechanisms: cell-free infection following fluid-phase diffusion of virions and by highly-efficient direct cell-to-cell transmission at immune cell contacts.
