Exosomes in HIV infection

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2021
Purpose of review The exosomes play a critical role in HIV infection, which constitute a pathway to release intracellular material and exchange material and information between cells. Exosomes have become a hotspot in the field of AIDS research.

Improvement of the Effectiveness of Antiviral Treatment of Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C and Concomitant Diabetes Mellitus Type II using Alpha-Lipoic Acid and Lactulose

open access: yesGalician Medical Journal, 2016
Imbalance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines was detected in 104 examined the patients with chronic hepatitis C. These changes were the most significant in patients with concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM) type II.

The Protective HIV-1 Envelope gp41 Antigen P1 Acts as a Mucosal Adjuvant Stimulating the Innate Immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mucosal nasal vaccine development, although ideal to protect from pathogens invading mucosally, is limited by the lack of specific adjuvant. We recently used P1, a conserved region of HIV-1 gp41-envelope glycoprotein, as efficient antigen in a ...

Granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells increased in early phases of primary HIV infection depending on TRAIL plasma level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background It has been demonstrated that Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (MDSC) are expanded in HIV-1 infected individuals and correlated with disease progression.

Pathogenesis of HIV infection [PDF]

open access: yesInfectious Disease Reports, 2013
Over the past three decades of intense research on the contribution of viral and host factors determining the variability in HIV-1 infection outcome, HIV pathogenesis is still a fascinating topic that requires further study. An understanding of the exact mechanism of how these factors influencing HIV pathogenesis is critical to the development of ...

Aging and HIV Infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Urban Health, 2006
With the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in mid-1995, the prognosis for HIV-infected individuals has brightened dramatically. However, the conjunction of potent antiviral therapy and longer life expectancy may engender a variety of health risks that, heretofore, HIV specialists have not had to confront.

Antibody-Dependent Cellular Phagocytosis of HIV-1-Infected Cells Is Efficiently Triggered by IgA Targeting HIV-1 Envelope Subunit gp41

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Antibodies mediate a broad array of non-neutralizing Fc-mediated functions against HIV-1 including antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP).

Hybrid spreading mechanisms and T cell activation shape the dynamics of HIV-1 infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Vaccine- and Breakthrough Infection-Elicited Pre-Omicron Immunity More Effectively Neutralizes Omicron BA.1, BA.2, BA.4 and BA.5 Than Pre-Omicron Infection Alone

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Since the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2, several Omicron sublineages have emerged, supplanting their predecessors. Here we compared the neutralization of Omicron sublineages BA.1, BA.2, BA.4 and BA.5 by human sera collected from ...
