New Concepts in Therapeutic Manipulation of HIV-1 Transcription and Latency: Latency Reversal versus Latency Prevention [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has dramatically improved the prognosis for people living with HIV-1, but a cure remains elusive. The largest barrier to a cure is the presence of a long-lived latent reservoir that persists within a heterogenous mix of cell ...

The role of latency reversal in HIV cure strategies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Primatology, 2022
AbstractOne strategy to eliminate latently infected cells that persist in people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy is to activate virus transcription and virus production to induce virus or immune‐mediated cell death. This is called latency reversal.

Latency Reversal 2.0: Giving the Immune System a Seat at the Table [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent HIV/AIDS Reports, 2021
Abstract Purpose of Review For most people living with HIV (PLWH), treatment with effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) results in suppression of viremia below the limit of detection of clinical assays, immune reconstitution, reduced immune activation, avoidance of opportunistic infections, and progression to AIDS ...

NSC95397 Is a Novel HIV-1 Latency-Reversing Agent

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The latent viral reservoir represents one of the major barriers to curing HIV-1. Focus on the “kick and kill” (also called “shock and kill”) approach, in which virus expression is reactivated, and then cells producing virus are selectively depleted, has ...

HIV-1 Latency and Viral Reservoirs: Existing Reversal Approaches and Potential Technologies, Targets, and Pathways Involved in HIV Latency Studies

open access: yesCells, 2021
Eradication of latent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a global health challenge. Reactivation of HIV latency and killing of virus-infected cells, the so-called “kick and kill” or “shock and kill” approaches, are a popular strategy for HIV

HIV-1 Latency and Latency Reversal: Does Subtype Matter? [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Cells that are latently infected with HIV-1 preclude an HIV-1 cure, as antiretroviral therapy does not target this latent population. HIV-1 is highly genetically diverse, with over 10 subtypes and numerous recombinant forms circulating worldwide. In spite of this vast diversity, much of our understanding of latency and latency reversal is largely based

Leveraging Novel Integrated Single-Cell Analyses to Define HIV-1 Latency Reversal [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2021
While suppressive antiretroviral therapy can effectively limit HIV-1 replication and evolution, it leaves behind a residual pool of integrated viral genomes that persist in a state of reversible nonproductive infection, referred to as the HIV-1 reservoir.

Distinct roles of dopamine receptors in HIV latency reversal in a myeloid cell model [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundCurrently, studies on the interactions between neurotransmitters and immune cells that are targets of HIV are limited by a focus on single pathways at a time.

Small Molecule Inhibitors of BAF; A Promising Family of Compounds in HIV-1 Latency Reversal

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Persistence of latently infected cells in presence of Anti-Retroviral Therapy presents the main obstacle to HIV-1 eradication. Much effort is thus placed on identification of compounds capable of HIV-1 latency reversal in order to render infected cells ...
