Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blocker Usage Prevents Oxidative Stress and Muscle Dysfunction in HIV
ABSTRACT Background We aimed to elucidate the role of Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blocker usage in muscle wasting and dysfunction related to HIV. Research Design and Methods Appendicular skeletal muscle mass, higher and lower limb strength, and physical fitness were determined in people living with HIV (PWH) using AT1R blockers users (n = 33),

Summary HIV remains a significant health concern, but the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed it into a manageable chronic condition. However, weight gain and obesity pose a substantial challenge for people living with HIV (PLWH). Moreover, the role of lifestyle has not yet been comprehensively investigated.

Resistance against Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors and Relevance to HIV Persistence
Drug resistance prevents the successful treatment of HIV-positive individuals by decreasing viral sensitivity to a drug or a class of drugs. In addition to transmitted resistant viruses, treatment-naïve individuals can be confronted with the problem of ...

The Complex Role of CD8+ T Cells in Placental HIV Infection
CD8+ T cells exhibit dual roles at the maternal‐fetal interface supporting tolerance via IL‐10 and TGF‐β and aiding implantation and vascular remodeling through TNF‐α and IFN‐γ. In HIV infection, CD8+ T cells expand, driving inflammation, PD‐L1 upregulation on trophoblasts, and cytotoxic dysfunction via reduced Granzyme B and Perforin, compromising ...

Abstract Introduction Data on drug resistance, viral outcomes and guidelines compliance following protease inhibitor (PI)‐based second‐line failure in low‐ and middle‐income countries are limited, particularly in the era of dolutegravir‐containing antiretroviral therapy (ART). Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of people living with HIV (

Abstract Introduction Black and Hispanic/Latine people are disproportionately affected by HIV‐1 and may have a greater risk of comorbidities than non‐Black and non‐Hispanic/Latine people with HIV. However, they have historically been underrepresented in HIV clinical studies.

Rethinking HIV treatment: How non‐integrase strand regimens may hold the key to better immune health
Abstract Purpose HIV outcome changed drastically with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy, especially after the introduction of second‐generation integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs). Despite these advances, however, chronic immune activation and exhaustion, marked by programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) upregulation ...
