Sensing of HIV-1 by TLR8 activates human T cells and reverses latency
Manipulation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) affects HIV-1 infection and latency reversal. Here, the authors show that HIV-1 is endocytosed and recognized by TLR8 in human primary CD4+T cells and that TLR8 stimulation induces an inflammatory response that ...

Proviral Latency, Persistent Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection, and the Development of Latency Reversing Agents [PDF]
Quiescent proviral genomes that persist during human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection despite effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) can fuel rebound viremia after ART interruption and is a central obstacle to the cure of HIV infection.

Latency reversal and viral clearance to cure HIV-1 [PDF]
Next steps toward curing HIV-1 Since the discovery of HIV-1 more than 30 years ago, prevention and treatment strategies have dominated the research agenda. More recently, however, scientists are also focusing their efforts toward finding a cure. Margolis et al.

The Current Status of Latency Reversing Agents for HIV-1 Remission [PDF]
Combinatory antiretroviral therapy (cART) reduces human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication but is not curative because cART interruption almost invariably leads to a rapid rebound of viremia due to the persistence of stable HIV-1-infected cellular reservoirs.

Latency reversal strategies for HIV cure using inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) antagonists (IAPi) induce unprecedented levels of latent reservoir expression without immunotoxicity during suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Humanized Mice for the Evaluation of Novel HIV-1 Therapies
With the discovery of antiretroviral therapy, HIV-1 infection has transitioned into a manageable but chronic illness, which requires lifelong treatment. Nevertheless, complete eradication of the virus has still eluded us.

HIV latency is reversed by ACSS2-driven histone crotonylation [PDF]
Eradication of HIV-1 (HIV) is hindered by stable viral reservoirs. Viral latency is epigenetically regulated. While the effects of histone acetylation and methylation at the HIV long-terminal repeat (LTR) have been described, our knowledge of the proviral epigenetic landscape is incomplete.

Impact of latency‐reversing agents on human macrophage physiology
AbstractIntroductionHIV‐1 eradication is hindered by the presence of inducible long‐lived reservoirs of latently infected cells which rapidly disseminate viral particles upon treatment interruption. Eliminating these reservoirs by the so‐called shock and kill strategy represents a crucial concept toward an HIV‐1 cure.

Latency reversal agents modulate HIV antigen processing and presentation to CD8 T cells.
Latency reversal agents (LRA) variably induce HIV re-expression in CD4 T cells but reservoirs are not cleared. Whether HIV epitope presentation is similar between latency reversal and initial infection of CD4 T cells is unknown yet crucial to define ...

Using repeatability of performance within and across contexts to validate measures of behavioral flexibility [PDF]
Research into animal cognitive abilities is increasing quickly and often uses methods where behavioral performance on a task is assumed to represent variation in the underlying cognitive trait.
