High prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 in relatives of patients with classic Kaposi's sarcoma from Sardinia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A survey for antibodies to a recombinant small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV‐8) was conducted in Sardinia, one of the world's highest incidence areas for classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Prevalence of antibodies to HHV‐8 sVCA

Seroepidemiology of Trichomonas vaginalis in rural women in Zimbabwe and patterns of association with HIV infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Serological assays using dried blood spots from 5221 women in rural areas of eastern Zimbabwe were used to assess the epidemiology of Trichomonas vaginalis infection, and its association with HIV. Antibodies to T.

Neuroprotective effects of the immunomodulatory drug FK506 in a model of HIV1-gp120 neurotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundHIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) continue to be a common morbidity associated with chronic HIV infection. It has been shown that HIV proteins (e.g., gp120) released from infected microglial/macrophage cells can cause neuronal ...

IgA antibodies against HIV-1

open access: yesVirologie
Antibodies, and notably immunoglobulins A (IgA), are paramount in mucosal tissues as protective immune effectors against invading pathogens and immunomodulators of the microbiota. Upon human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, systemic and mucosal IgA antibody responses are triggered.

Enhancing exposure of HIV-1 neutralization epitopes through mutations in gp41.

open access: yesPLoS Medicine, 2008
The generation of broadly neutralizing antibodies is a priority in the design of vaccines against HIV-1. Unfortunately, most antibodies to HIV-1 are narrow in their specificity, and a basic understanding of how to develop antibodies with broad ...

Hepatitis C virus cell-cell transmission and resistance to direct-acting antiviral agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is transmitted between hepatocytes via classical cell entry but also uses direct cell-cell transfer to infect neighboring hepatocytes.

Immunization expands B cells specific to HIV-1 V3 glycan in mice and macaques. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies protect against infection with HIV-1 in animal models, suggesting that a vaccine that elicits these antibodies would be protective in humans.

ADAR1 restricts LINE-1 retrotransposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) are involved in RNA editing that converts adenosines to inosines in double-stranded RNAs. ADAR1 was demonstrated to be functional on different viruses exerting either antiviral or proviral effects.

HIV-1 Antibodies and Serology

open access: yesClinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1994
This article reviews various laboratory assays for screening and detection of antibodies against HIV-1 and viral components. The prognostic role of these assays in the course of HIV-1 infection is described as well as functional aspects of anti-HIV antibodies.

Renal AA-amyloidosis in intravenous drug users - a role for HIV-infection? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Chronic renal disease is a serious complication of long-term intravenous drug use (IVDU). Recent reports have postulated a changing pattern of underlying nephropathy over the last decades.
