HIV-1 latency reversal agent boosting is not limited by opioid use
Abstract The opioid epidemic may impact the HIV-1 reservoir and its reversal from latency in virally suppressed people with HIV (PWH). We studied forty-seven PWH and observed that lowering the concentration of HIV-1 latency reversal agents (LRA), used in combination with small molecules that do not reverse latency ...

Pathways towards human immunodeficiency virus elimination
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.

Optimal control of an HIV model with gene therapy and latency reversing agents
In this project, we study the dynamics of HIV under gene therapy and latency reversing agents. For constant treatment controls, we establish global stability of the disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium based on the value of the basic ...

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

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 ...

Engineering CAR T Cells to Target the HIV Reservoir
The HIV reservoir remains to be a difficult barrier to overcome in order to achieve a therapeutic cure for HIV. Several strategies have been developed to purge the reservoir, including the “kick and kill” approach, which is based on the notion that ...

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

Lnc(ing)RNAs to the “shock and kill” strategy for HIV-1 cure
The advent of antiretroviral therapy almost 25 years ago has transformed HIV-1 infection into a manageable chronic condition, albeit still incurable. The inability of the treatment regimen to eliminate latently infected cells that harbor the virus in an ...
