Immune Control of AIDS Progression by an Adenovirus-Based Therapeutic Vaccination in Acute Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Macaques. [PDF]
This proof‐of‐concept study confirms that the GM‐CSF‐mediated adenovirus‐based SIV vaccine delivery strategy in combination with ART enhances antiviral immunity during acute infection. This strategy delays viral rebound and disease progression following ART by maintaining specific T cell responses and reducing immune activation.

Analysis of multiply spliced transcripts in lymphoid tissue reservoirs of rhesus macaques infected with RT-SHIV during HAART. [PDF]
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can reduce levels of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to undetectable levels in infected individuals, but the virus is not eradicated.

Advances in SIV/SHIV Non-Human Primate Models of NeuroAIDS
Non-human primates (NHPs) are the most relevant model of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and neuroAIDS, being of great importance in explaining the pathogenesis of HIV-induced nervous system damage.

SIV/SHIV-Zika co-infection does not alter disease pathogenesis in adult non-pregnant rhesus macaque model. [PDF]
Due to the large geographical overlap of populations exposed to Zika virus (ZIKV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), understanding the disease pathogenesis of co-infection is urgently needed.

Rev proteins of human and simian immunodeficiency virus enhance RNA encapsidation. [PDF]
The main function attributed to the Rev proteins of immunodeficiency viruses is the shuttling of viral RNAs containing the Rev responsive element (RRE) via the CRM-1 export pathway from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.

Vaccination against heterologous R5 clade C SHIV: prevention of infection and correlates of protection. [PDF]
A safe, efficacious vaccine is required to stop the AIDS pandemic. Disappointing results from the STEP trial implied a need to include humoral anti-HIV-1 responses, a notion supported by RV144 trial data even though correlates of protection are unknown ...

Unique Pattern of Enzootic Primate Viruses in Gibraltar Macaques
Because Gibraltar's macaques (Macaca sylvanus) have frequent contact with humans, we assayed 79 macaques for antibodies to enzootic primate viruses. All macaques were seronegative for herpesvirus B, simian T-cell lymphotropic virus, simian retrovirus ...

Sequential emergence and clinical implications of viral mutants with K70E and K65R mutation in reverse transcriptase during prolonged tenofovir monotherapy in rhesus macaques with chronic RT-SHIV infection. [PDF]
BackgroundWe reported previously on the emergence and clinical implications of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVmac251) mutants with a K65R mutation in reverse transcriptase (RT), and the role of CD8+ cell-mediated immune responses in suppressing ...

Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Infection of Chimpanzees [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) are primate lentiviruses that infect no fewer than 36 different nonhuman primate species in sub-Saharan Africa ([4][1], [9][2], [62][3]). Two of these viruses, SIVcpz from chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ) and SIVsmm from sooty mangabeys ( Cercocebus atys ...
