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.

HSF1 inhibition attenuates HIV-1 latency reversal mediated by several candidate LRAs In Vitro and Ex Vivo [PDF]
HIV-1 latency is a major barrier to cure. Identification of small molecules that destabilize latency and allow immune clearance of infected cells could lead to treatment-free remission.

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).

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.

Motion extrapolation in the central fovea [PDF]
Neural transmission latency would introduce a spatial lag when an object moves across the visual field, if the latency was not compensated. A visual predictive mechanism has been proposed, which overcomes such spatial lag by extrapolating the position of

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.

Development of a latency model for HIV-1 subtype C and the impact of long terminal repeat element genetic variation on latency reversal. [PDF]
Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for almost 70 % of people living with HIV (PLWH) worldwide, with the greatest numbers centred in South Africa where 98 % of infections are caused by subtype C (HIV-1C).

Small Molecule Targeting of Specific BAF (mSWI/SNF) Complexes for HIV Latency Reversal [PDF]
The persistence of a pool of latently HIV-1-infected cells despite combination anti-retroviral therapy treatment is the major roadblock for a cure. The BAF (mammalian SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex is involved in establishing and maintaining viral

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.

Crotonylation sensitizes IAPi-induced disruption of latent HIV by enhancing p100 cleavage into p52
Summary: The eradication of HIV infection is difficult to achieve because of stable viral reservoirs. Here, we show that crotonylation enhances AZD5582-induced noncanonical NF-κB (ncNF-κB) signaling, further augmenting HIV latency reversal in Jurkat and ...
