Relationship between Measures of HIV Reactivation and Decline of the Latent Reservoir under Latency-Reversing Agents. [PDF]

J Virol, 2017
Antiretroviral-free HIV remission requires substantial reduction of the number of latently infected cells and enhanced immune control of viremia.

Temporal transcriptional response to latency reversing agents identifies specific factors regulating HIV-1 viral transcriptional switch. [PDF]

Retrovirology, 2015
Background\ud Latent HIV-1 reservoirs are identified as one of the major challenges to achieve HIV-1 cure. Currently available strategies are associated with wide variability in outcomes both in patients and CD4+ T cell models.

HIV LTR-Driven Antisense RNA by Itself Has Regulatory Function and May Curtail Virus Reactivation From Latency

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Latently infected T lymphocytes are an important barrier toward eliminating a persistent HIV infection. Here we describe an HIV-based recombinant fluorescent-lentivirus referred to as “rfl-HIV” that enables to analyze sense and antisense transcription by

Pathways towards human immunodeficiency virus elimination

EBioMedicine, 2020
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) suppresses human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Research seeking to transform viral suppression into elimination has generated novel immune, chemical and molecular antiviral agents.

The role of latency reversal agents in the cure of HIV: A review of current data [PDF]

Immunology Letters, 2018
The definitive cure for human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV) infection is represented by the eradication of the virus from the patient's body. To reach this result, cells that are infected but do not produce the virus must become recognizable to be killed by the immune system.

Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis of romidepsin used as an HIV latency reversing agent

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2020
AbstractObjectivesTo develop a population pharmacokinetic model for romidepsin given as an HIV latency reversing agent (LRA) and to explore the relationship between romidepsin exposure and its in vivo effects on viral gene expression and antiviral immunity.MethodsA population pharmacokinetic analysis was performed in 15 HIV-1-infected patients who ...

Identification of celastrol as a novel HIV-1 latency reversal agent by an image-based screen [PDF]

PLOS ONE, 2020
Although current antiretroviral therapies (ART) are successful in controlling HIV-1 infection, a stable viral reservoir reactivates when ART is discontinued. Consequently, there is a major research effort to develop approaches to disrupt the latent viral reservoir and enhance the immune system’s ability to clear HIV-1.

Evaluating a New Class of AKT/mTOR Activators for HIV Latency-Reversing Activity Ex Vivo and In Vivo [PDF]

, 2021
An ability to activate latent HIV-1 expression could benefit many HIV cure strategies, but the first generation of latency reversing agents (LRAs) has proven disappointing. We evaluated AKT/mTOR activators as a potential new class of LRAs.

Discovering the Mechanisms of Oleodaphnone as a Potential HIV Latency-Reversing Agent by Transcriptome Profiling

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Latent HIV is a key factor that makes AIDS difficult to cure. Highly effective and specific latent HIV activators can effectively activate latent HIV, and then combined with antiretroviral therapy to achieve a functional cure of AIDS. Here, four sesquiterpenes (1–4) including a new one (1), five flavonoids (5–9) including three biflavonoid structures ...

PARP1 Might Substitute HSF1 to Reactivate Latent HIV-1 by Binding to Heat Shock Element

Cells, 2022
At present, the barrier to HIV-1 functional cure is the persistence of HIV-1 reservoirs. The “shock (reversing latency) and kill (antiretroviral therapy)” strategy sheds light on reducing or eliminating the latent reservoir of HIV-1. However, the current
