Signal peptide of HIV envelope protein impacts glycosylation and antigenicity of gp120 [PDF]
Significance Significant heterogeneity exists in the structure and antigenicity of HIV-1 envelope protein (Env) gp120 due, in part, to various posttranslational modifications. Using glycan and antigenic analysis, we show that the signal peptide (SP) of HIV Env can impact the glycan profile of gp120, which in turn impacts antigenicity of the ...

HIV-1 Envelope Protein gp120 Promotes Proliferation and the Activation of Glycolysis in Glioma Cell [PDF]
Patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are more prone to developing cancers, including glioblastomas (GBMs). The median survival for HIV positive GBM patients is significantly shorter than for those who are uninfected, despite the fact that they receive the same treatments.

Learning impairment following intracerebral administration of the HIV envelope protein gp120 or a VIP antagonist [PDF]
The external envelope glycoprotein (gp120) of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been shown to be toxic to neurons in culture. To further investigate the neurological effects of gp120, the involvement of this protein with the acquisition of spatial discrimination was assessed.

An HIV Envelope gp120-Fc Fusion Protein Elicits Effector Antibody Responses in Rhesus Macaques
ABSTRACT A goal for HIV prevention programs is to develop safe, effective vaccines that elicit durable and broadly protective antibodies. Many vaccine programs focus on the immune responses to critical epitopes in the gp120 portion of HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env) and seek to improve the quality and quantity of antibodies by ...

Direct cytotoxicity of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 on human NT neurons
NeuroReport, 1996A new in vitro system comprising a pure population of neurons, human NT cells, was used to characterize the direct neurotoxic effect of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120. Cytotoxicity was monitored by a quantitative assay after exposure to recombinant gp120 in the presence or absence of other reagents.

HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 affects phenotype and function of monocytes in vitro
Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1994Abstract We investigated the effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) recombinant gp120 (rec.gp120) on phenotype and function of cultured monocytes. Rec.gp120 significantly reduced the accessory function of monocytes to stimulate autologous lymphocytes with anti-CD3, the Fc receptor–mediated chemiluminescence of monocytes ...

The HIV-1 envelope protein GP120 induces neuronal apoptosis in hippocampal slices
NeuroReport, 1996The HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 produces neuronal cell damage in primary cultures of a variety of cell types including hippocampal and retinal ganglion cell neurons. The properties of primary cell cultures are, however, often markedly different from those of cells living in their normal environment.

Inhibition of CD4+ T cell function by the HIV envelope protein, gp120.
The Journal of Immunology, 1988Abstract The CD4 molecule is functionally involved in the class II MHC-restricted T cell response to Ag. CD4 is also the receptor for HIV-1, the major etiologic agent of AIDS. We have assessed whether the interaction of the HIV-1 envelope protein with the CD4 molecule might interfere with the normal function of CD4, thereby contributing ...
