Compounds producing an effective combinatorial regimen for disruption of HIV‐1 latency

Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has improved the outlook for the HIV epidemic, but does not provide a cure. The proposed "shock-and-kill" strategy is directed at inducing latent HIV reservoirs, which may then be purged via boosted immune response or targeting infected cells. We describe five novel compounds that are capable of reversing HIV latency without affecting the general T-c...

Combinatorial Latency Reactivation for HIV - 1 Subtypes and Variants 1 Running Title : HIV - 1 Combinatorial Anti - latency Strategies

Combinatorial latency reactivation for HIV-1 subtypes and variants.

The eradication of HIV-1 will likely require novel clinical approaches to purge the reservoir of latently infected cells from a patient. We hypothesize that this therapy should target a wide range of latent integration sites, act effectively against viral variants that have acquired mutations in their promoter regions, and function across multiple HIV-1 subtypes. By using primary CD4(+) and Jur...

An Integrated Overview of HIV-1 Latency

Despite significant advances in our understanding of HIV, a cure has not been realized for the more than 34 million infected with this virus. HIV is incurable because infected individuals harbor cells where the HIV provirus is integrated into the host's DNA but is not actively replicating and thus is not inhibited by antiviral drugs. Similarly, these latent viruses are not detected by the immun...
