Assessing proviral competence: current approaches to evaluate HIV-1 persistence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Despite decades of suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV-1 reservoirs persist and fuel viral rebound if therapy is interrupted. The persistence of viral reservoirs in infected individuals is the main obstacle to achieving HIV-1

Infant morbidity, mortality, and breast milk immunologic profiles among breast-feeding HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected women in Botswana. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Infants of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected women have high mortality, but the immunologic integrity and protection afforded by the breast milk of HIV-infected women is unknown.

Cell-free (RNA) and cell-associated (DNA) HIV-1 and postnatal transmission through breastfeeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Introduction - Transmission through breastfeeding remains important for mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) in resource-limited settings. We quantify the relationship between cell-free (RNA) and cell-associated (DNA) shedding of HIV-1 virus in ...

Robust CAR-T memory formation and function via hematopoietic stem cell delivery.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Due to the durability and persistence of reservoirs of HIV-1-infected cells, combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) is insufficient in eradicating infection.

Cervicovaginal HIV-1 shedding in women taking antiretroviral therapy in Burkina Faso: a longitudinal study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) reduces transmission of HIV-1. However, genital HIV-1 can be detected in patients on ART. We analyzed factors associated with genital HIV-1 shedding among high-risk women on ART in Burkina Faso.

Measuring replication competent HIV-1: advances and challenges in defining the latent reservoir

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2018
Antiretroviral therapy cannot cure HIV-1 infection due to the persistence of a small number of latently infected cells harboring replication-competent proviruses.

Impact of chemotherapy for HIV-1 related lymphoma on residual viremia and cellular HIV-1 DNA in patients on suppressive antiretroviral therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The first cure of HIV-1 infection was achieved through complex, multimodal therapy including myeloablative chemotherapy, total body irradiation, anti-thymocyte globulin, and allogeneic stem cell transplantation with a CCR5 delta32 homozygous donor.

Poly-l-lactic acid for HIV-1 facial lipoatrophy: 48-week follow-up [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
OBJECTIVES: Poly-l-lactic acid (PLA) injections modestly increase objectively assessed facial thickness but not facial soft tissue volume (FSTV) over 24 weeks. The durability of this response has not been well defined objectively.

Nonsuppressible HIV-1 viremia: a reflection of how the reservoir persists [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2020
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) generally reduces plasma HIV to undetectable levels, although virus persists in latently infected CD4+ T cells. In some individuals, viremia remains detectable despite adherence to ART and the absence of drug resistance mutations. In this issue of the JCI, Halvas et al.

Transmitted/founder SHIV.D replicates in the brain, causes neuropathogenesis, and persists on combination antiretroviral therapy in rhesus macaques

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2023
A biologically relevant non-human primate (NHP) model of HIV persistence in the central nervous system (CNS) is necessary. Most current NHP/SIV models of HIV infection fail to recapitulate viral persistence in the CNS without encephalitis or fail to ...
