For Viral Reservoir Studies, Timing Matters [PDF]
New strategies to eliminate persistent HIV-1 during therapy will benefit from animal models, such as non-human primates infected with simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIV) or chimeras (SHIV). Understanding the genetic composition of SIV and SHIV reservoirs during therapy is therefore crucial for the future application of this model.

Background: While combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) allows near-normal life expectancy for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), it is unable to cure the infection and so life long treatment is required.

Do ‘special’ viral reservoirs exist? [PDF]
A recent analysis concludes that there is little evidence to support the notion that reservoir host affects the propensity for a virus to infect humans.

Viral genomic features predictorthopoxvirusreservoir hosts
AbstractOrthopoxviruses (OPVs), including the causative agents of smallpox and mpox have led to devastating outbreaks in human populations worldwide. However, the discontinuation of smallpox vaccination, which also provides cross-protection against related OPVs, has diminished global immunity to OPVs more broadly.

Optimization of AAV vectors to target persistent viral reservoirs [PDF]
AbstractGene delivery of antiviral therapeutics to anatomical sites where viruses accumulate and persist is a promising approach for the next generation of antiviral therapies. Recombinant adeno-associated viruses (AAV) are one of the leading vectors for gene therapy applications that deliver gene-editing enzymes, antibodies, and RNA interference ...

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 ...

Residual inflammation and viral reservoirs [PDF]
HIV persists in cellular and anatomical reservoirs during antiretroviral therapy (ART). Viral persistence is ensured by a variety of mechanisms including ongoing viral replication and proliferation of latently infected cells. In this review, we summarize recent findings establishing a link between the unresolved levels of inflammation observed in ...

Two-year follow-up of macaques developing intermittent control of the human immunodeficiency virus homolog simian immunodeficiency virus SIVmac251 in the chronic phase of infection [PDF]
Off-therapy control of viremia by HIV-infected individuals has been associated with two likely players: a restricted viral reservoir and an efficient cell-mediated immune response.

Low-Level HIV-I Replication and the Dynamics of the Resting CD4(+) T Cell Reservoir for HIV-I in the Setting of HAART [PDF]
In the setting of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), plasma levels of human immunodeficiency type-I (HIV-I) rapidly decay to below the limit of detection of standard clinical assays.

Viral antibody dynamics in a chiropteran host [PDF]
1. Bats host many viruses that are significant for human and domestic animal health, but the dynamics of these infections in their natural reservoir hosts remain poorly elucidated.<p></p> 2.
