Exploiting knowledge of immune selection in HIV-1 to detect HIV-specific CD8 T-cell responses [PDF]
Since HLA-restricted cytotoxic T-cell responses select specific polymorphisms in HIV-1 sequences and HLA diversity is relatively static in human populations, we investigated the use of peptide epitopes based on sites of HLA-associated adaptation in HIV-1

Recent Developments in HIV Antivirals: The Prospect of Prophylactic Drugs to Change the Pandemic
Replication cycle of HIV‐1. The scheme provides an overview from virus entry over reverse transcription of viral RNA into viral DNA, provirus DNA integration into the host genome, genome expression by transcription and translation, proteolytic processing of the viral polyproteins, viral maturation to viral release from the cell. The various targets for

Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Individuals Contain Provirus in Small Numbers of Peripheral Mononuclear Cells and at Low Copy Numbers [PDF]
In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, the proportion of circulating mononuclear cells (PBMCs) which carry HIV provirus and the number of HIV proviral sequences per infected PBMC have been matters for conjecture.

Antiretroviral effect of 4-thio-uridylate against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 [PDF]
Antiretroviral effect of thiolated nucleotide 4-thio-uridylate (S4UMP, designated as UD29) against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) have been quantitatively determined in cell-based viral infectivity assays. In syntitium inhibition assay on MT-

Induction of HIV‐Specific T Cell Responses Using αDC1 Pulsed With Conserved HIV‐1 Peptides
Despite the effectiveness of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in suppressing HIV‐1 replication and reducing morbidity, viral eradication remains unachievable due to the persistence of latent reservoirs, particularly within memory CD4+ T cells. Dendritic cell (DC)‐based immunotherapeutic approaches have emerged as potential strategies to enhance antigen ...

An analysis of Bovine immunodeficiency virus and Jembrana disease virus infections in Bos javanicus [PDF]
Two closely related bovine lentiviruses have been described, Jembrana disease virus (JDV) and Bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV), that produce very different clinical manifestations in infected cattle.

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: G protein‐coupled receptors
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

Expression of CXCR4 on feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells: effect of feline immunodeficiency virus infection. [PDF]
CXCR4 expression on feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was analyzed. While monocytes and B lymphocytes expressed CXCR4, no CXCR4 was detected on T lymphocytes, in stark contrast to the expression pattern on T lymphocytes from humans.

The characterization of EVs and viruses co‐purified by differential centrifugation highlighted their diversity. The 3K pellet contained viruses with high infectivity, along with DAP‐3 and mitochondrial DNA enriched EVs. A lower infectivity was associated with the 17K pellet. The 17K EVs displayed ICAM‐1 and contained HSP70 and mitochondrial DNA.

Natural variation of the nef gene in human immunodeficiency virus type 2 infections in Portugal [PDF]
Human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) infections cause severe immunodeficiency in humans, although HIV-2 is associated frequently with reduced virulence and pathogenicity compared to HIV-1.
