X-Linked RNA-Binding Motif Protein Modulates HIV-1 Infection of CD4+ T Cells by Maintaining the Trimethylation of Histone H3 Lysine 9 at the Downstream Region of the 5′ Long Terminal Repeat of HIV Proviral DNA

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Reversible repression of HIV-1 5′ long terminal repeat (5′-LTR)-mediated transcription represents the main mechanism for HIV-1 to maintain latency.

Schlafen 12 restricts HIV-1 latency reversal by a codon-usage dependent post-transcriptional block in CD4+ T cells

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Latency is a major barrier towards virus elimination in HIV-1-infected individuals. Yet, the mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of HIV-1 latency are incompletely understood.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Latency Reversal via the Induction of Early Growth Response Protein 1 to Bypass Protein Kinase C Agonist-Associated Immune Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV) remains a global health challenge due to the latent HIV reservoirs in people living with HIV (PLWH). Dormant yet replication competent HIV harbored in the resting CD4+ T cells cannot be purged by antiretroviral ...

HIV reservoirs and latency models

open access: yesVirology, 2011
The main impediment to a cure for HIV is the existence of long-lasting treatment resistant viral reservoirs. In this review, we discuss what is currently known about reservoirs, including their formation and maintenance, while focusing on latently infected CD4+ T cells.

Identify Potential Regulators in HIV-1 Latency by Joint microRNA and mRNA Analysis

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Background/Aims: The main obstacle to cure HIV infection is the existence of long-lasting latent reservoirs. Many efforts have been made to understand basal mechanisms of HIV-1 latency, in which miRNAs play an important role. However, integrated analysis

Tuberculosis in HIV-negative and HIV-infected patients in a low-incidence country: clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: In Switzerland and other developed countries, the number of tuberculosis (TB) cases has been decreasing for decades, but HIV-infected patients and migrants remain risk groups.

Single-Cell RNA-Seq Reveals Transcriptional Heterogeneity in Latent and Reactivated HIV-Infected Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Despite effective treatment, HIV can persist in latent reservoirs, which represent a major obstacle toward HIV eradication. Targeting and reactivating latent cells is challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of HIV-infected cells.

Pharmacological suppression of glycogen synthase kinase-3 reactivates HIV-1 from latency via activating Wnt/β-catenin/TCF1 axis in CD4+ T cells

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
HIV-1 latency posts a major obstacle for HIV-1 eradication. Currently, no desirable latency reversing agents (LRAs) have been implicated in the “Shock and Kill” strategy to mobilize the latently infected cells to be susceptible for clearance by immune ...

A modular CRISPR screen identifies individual and combination pathways contributing to HIV-1 latency.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
Transcriptional silencing of latent HIV-1 proviruses entails complex and overlapping mechanisms that pose a major barrier to in vivo elimination of HIV-1.

IRF7 expression correlates with HIV latency reversal upon specific blockade of immune activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The persistence of latent HIV reservoirs allows for viral rebound upon antiretroviral therapy interruption, hindering effective HIV-1 cure. Emerging evidence suggests that modulation of innate immune stimulation could impact viral latency and contribute ...
