The reservoir of latent HIV

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The persistence of latent reservoir of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is currently the major challenge in curing HIV infection. After HIV infects the human body, the latent HIV is unable to be recognized by the body’s immune system. Currently, the widely adopted antiretroviral therapy (ART) is also unble to eliminate it, thus hindering the ...

Peering into the HIV reservoir [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, 2018
SummaryThe main obstacle to HIV eradication is the establishment of a long‐term persistent HIV reservoir. Although several therapeutic approaches have been developed to reduce and eventually eliminate the HIV reservoir, only a few have achieved promising results.

Combating the HIV reservoirs

Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering Reviews, 2018
Impressive advances have been made in the treatment and management of HIV-1 infected individuals. Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has turned HIV-1 infection from an almost invariable deadly infectious disease, to a lifelong manageable infectious disease. However, a cure or vaccine has not been forthcoming.

Understanding HIV Compartments and Reservoirs

Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2014
The spectrum of HIV-1 cellular reservoirs is highly diversified, and their role varies according to the milieu of the anatomical sites in which the virus replicates. In this light, mechanisms underlying HIV-1 persistence in anatomical compartments may be profoundly different from what is observed in peripheral blood.

Astrocytes as an HIV Reservoir: Mechanism of HIV Infection

Current HIV Research, 2016
If we have any hope of achieving a cure for HIV infection, close attention to the cell types capable of getting infected with HIV is necessary. Of these cell types, astrocytes are the most ideal cell type for the formation of such a reservoir. These are long-lived cells with a very low turnover rate and are found in the brain and the gastrointestinal ...

Latent reservoirs for HIV-1

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1999
Combination therapy for HIV-1 infection can reduce viremia to undetectable levels, suggesting that prolonged treatment might eradicate the infection. However, one potential mechanism for viral persistence involves the establishment of a state of latent infection.

HIV Reservoirs and Strategies for Eradication

Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2012
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has led to a reduction in morbidity and mortality in HIV-infected patients but therapy is lifelong and there is no cure for HIV. The major barriers to cure include HIV latency, which has been identified in different T-cell subsets, as well as persistence of HIV in anatomical reservoirs.
