A cohort-based study of host gene expression: tumor suppressor and innate immune/inflammatory pathways associated with the HIV reservoir size. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
The major barrier to an HIV cure is the HIV reservoir: latently-infected cells that persist despite effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). There have been few cohort-based studies evaluating host genomic or transcriptomic predictors of the HIV reservoir.

Inhibition of TIGIT on NK cells improves their cytotoxicity and HIV reservoir eradication potential [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
The latent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reservoir presents the biggest obstacle to curing HIV chronic infection. Consequently, finding novel strategies to control the HIV reservoir is critical.

Applications and limitations of the passenger hypothesis for HIV reservoir persistence and cure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) suppresses HIV replication in people living with HIV (PWH), but a persistent population of reservoir cells prevents cure. Reservoir cells are mostly anatomically dispersed, latently infected CD4+ T cells harboring one copy of

Engineering CAR T Cells to Target the HIV Reservoir

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
The HIV reservoir remains to be a difficult barrier to overcome in order to achieve a therapeutic cure for HIV. Several strategies have been developed to purge the reservoir, including the “kick and kill” approach, which is based on the notion that ...

New Frontiers in Measuring and Characterizing the HIV Reservoir

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
A cure for HIV infection remains elusive due to the persistence of replication-competent HIV proviral DNA during suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Emerging PCR-Based Techniques to Study HIV-1 Reservoir Persistence

open access: yesViruses, 2020
While current antiretroviral therapies are able to halt HIV-1 progression, they are not curative, as an interruption of treatment usually leads to viral rebound.

Analysis of the effect of HDAC inhibitors on the formation of the HIV reservoir [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
The HIV reservoir is more dynamic than previously thought with around 70% of the latent reservoir originating from viruses circulating within 1 year of the initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Impact of the initial administration of an antiretroviral drug with latency reversal properties on the HIV reservoir size [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The elimination of the latent viral reservoir remains the main barrier in the quest for a cure for people with HIV (PWH). The administration of latency reversal agents (LRA) at antiretroviral treatment (ART) initiation could improve the effectiveness of ...

Dynamics of HIV DNA reservoir seeding in a cohort of superinfected Kenyan women. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
A reservoir of HIV-infected cells that persists despite suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART) is the source of viral rebound upon ART cessation and the major barrier to a cure.

The HIV-1 latent reservoir is largely sensitive to circulating T cells

open access: yeseLife, 2020
HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells are an important component of HIV-1 curative strategies. Viral variants in the HIV-1 reservoir may limit the capacity of T cells to detect and clear virus-infected cells.
