Redefining the Viral Reservoirs that Prevent HIV-1 Eradication [PDF]
Immunity, 2012 This Perspective proposes definitions for key terms in the field of HIV-1 latency and eradication. In the context of eradication, a reservoir is a cell type that allows persistence of replication-competent HIV-1 on a timescale of years in patients on optimal antiretroviral therapy. Reservoirs act as a barrier to eradication in the patient population in

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infects millions of people worldwide, and new cases continue to emerge. Once infected, the virus cannot be cleared by the immune system and causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Frontiers in ImmunologyBackgroundPeople living with chronic HIV (PLWH) show immune dysfunction, despite viral suppression and normal CD4 recovery, particularly those with low CD4/CD8 ratios.

Journal of Virus Eradication, 2018 Objectives: The interaction between HIV and the immune system gives rise to a complex dynamical system. We therefore investigate whether delayed viral rebound after antiretroviral therapy (ART) interruption (ATI) may be due to an individual's viral ...

Impacts of HIV Cure Interventions on Viral Reservoirs in Tissues [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 HIV reservoirs persist in infected individuals despite combination antiretroviral therapy and can be identified in secondary lymphoid tissues, in intestinal tissues, in the central nervous system as well as in blood. Clinical trials have begun to explore effects of small molecule interventions to perturb the latent viral infection, but only limited ...

Viral Abundance and Diversity of Production Fluids in Oil Reservoirs [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2020 Viruses are widely distributed in various ecosystems and have important impacts on microbial evolution, community structure and function and nutrient cycling in the environment. Viral abundance, diversity and distribution are important for a better understanding of ecosystem functioning and have often been investigated in marine, soil, and other ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

A quantitative approach for measuring the reservoir of latent HIV-1 proviruses. [PDF]
, 2019 A stable latent reservoir for HIV-1 in resting CD4+ T cells is the principal barrier to a cure1-3. Curative strategies that target the reservoir are being tested4,5 and require accurate, scalable reservoir assays.

Characterization of designed, synthetically accessible bryostatin analog HIV latency reversing agents. [PDF]
, 2018 HIV latency in resting CD4+ T cell represents a key barrier preventing cure of the infection with antiretroviral drugs alone. Latency reversing agents (LRAs) can activate HIV expression in latently infected cells, potentially leading to their elimination
