Potent and Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies Targeting HIV Envelope Protein gp120

Future Virology, 2012
Evaluation of: Pejchal R, Doores KJ, Walker LM et al. A potent and broad neutralizing antibody recognizes and penetrates the HIV glycan shield. Science 334(6059), 1097–1103 (2011). A dense glycan shield of HIV Env protein gp120 protects gp120 from antibody recognition.

HIV Envelope Protein gp120 Stimulates Expression of Specific Chemokines in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells.

Blood, 2004
Abstract Lymphoid organs are the major anatomical home of HIV, where the virus replicates during both the acute and chronic phases of infections. In this regard, there are significantly more infected cells in lymph nodes (LNs) than in circulating blood, and these infected cells are a major reservoir of infectious HIV.

Requirement for macrophages in neuronal injury induced by HIV envelope protein gp120

NeuroReport, 1992
HIV-1-related neuronal injury may involve a complex web of viral proteins and cytokines, but neurons themselves are not infected. The HIV envelope protein gp120 has been shown to engender an early increase in neuronal free calcium followed by delayed excitotoxic-like damage, which is prevented by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists.

Use of Human CD4 Transgenic Mice for Studying Immunogenicity of HIV-1 Envelope Protein gp120

Transgenic Research, 2001
HIV-1 envelope protein, gp120, is a major immunogenic protein of the AIDS virus. A specific feature of this protein is its interaction with the receptor protein, human CD4, an important component of the immune system. This interaction might affect the immunogenic properties of the gp 120 and modulate the immune response towards HIV.

Peripheral nerve exposure to HIV viral envelope protein gp120 induces neuropathic pain and spinal gliosis

Journal of Neuroimmunology, 2001
Painful sensory neuropathy is a common and debilitating consequence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The underlying causes of neuropathic pain are most likely not due to direct infection of the nervous system by active virus. The goal of this study was to determine whether epineural exposure to the HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 could lead to ...

Mechanism of Anti-HIV Activity of Negatively Charged Albumins: Biomolecular Interaction with the HIV-1 Envelope Protein gp120

Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes and Human Retrovirology, 1996
A novel class of polyanionic proteins with potent anti-human immunodeficiency virus type 1 activity, the negatively charged albumins (NCAs), have been reported previously. In vitro antiviral assays established that these compounds preferentially inhibit virus-cell fusion and syncytium formation and that virus-cell binding is less affected.

Interaction of several complement proteins with gp120 and gp41, the two envelope gycoproteins of HIV-1

AIDS, 1995
To study the binding of human complement proteins to gp41 and gp120 of HIV-1.The interaction of complement proteins with gp41 and gp120 and their effect on the gp41-gp120 complex in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and on stably transfected Schneider-2 cells expressing a gp41-gp120 complex was investigated.

HIV-1 Envelope Protein (gp120) Inhibits the Activity of Human Bronchoalveolar Macrophages againstCryptococcus neoformans

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1992
Cryptococcus neoformans infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality for HIV-infected persons. Containment of the initial respiratory inoculation to the lung appears defective in patients with AIDS despite the low burden of HIV in bronchoalveolar macrophages. We have studied the fungistatic activity of human bronchoalveolar macrophages (BAM)

Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity is directed against both the gp120 and gp41 envelope proteins of HIV

Aids, 1989
To define the target antigens for antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), assays were performed using affinity-purified human immunoglobulin (Ig) or polyclonal rabbit sera directed against specific proteins of HIV. ADCC was not found using affinity-purified anti-core (p25) human Ig or sera obtained from rabbits hyper-immunized with recombinant

Spatial Structure Model of the CD4 Receptor-Binding Site of the HIV Envelope Protein gp120

Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 1998
In this study we have undertaken attempt to predict 3D structure of the CD4 receptor-binding site of the HIV envelope protein gp120. The structure of this site has been constructed by the analysis of low-energy conformers of peptide T, an HIV reproduction inhibitor with amino acid sequence corresponding to the fragment Ala-Ser-Thr-Thr-Thr-Asn-Tyr-Thr ...
