HIV vaccine development and broadly neutralizing antibodies
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infects about 35 million people worldwide [1]. There is no vaccine in current clinical use. Although available drug treatments are generally effective in controlling infection, they are not curative, can cause significant side effects and are unable to prevent comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease and cancers. In 2012, about 1.6 million people world...
متن کاملbNAber: database of broadly neutralizing HIV antibodies
The discovery of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) has provided an enormous impetus to the HIV vaccine research and to entire immunology. The bNAber database at http://bNAber.org provides open, user-friendly access to detailed data on the rapidly growing list of HIV bNAbs, including neutralization profiles, sequences and three-dimensional structures (when available). It also provides an e...
متن کاملBroadly Neutralizing Antibodies for HIV Eradication.
Passive transfer of antibodies has long been considered a potential treatment modality for infectious diseases, including HIV. Early efforts to use antibodies to suppress HIV replication, however, were largely unsuccessful, as the antibodies that were studied neutralized only a relatively narrow spectrum of viral strains and were not very potent. Recent advances have led to the discovery of a l...
متن کاملBroadly neutralizing antibodies to prevent HIV-1.
A dvances in technology—especially single-cell antibody cloning techniques—have led to the isolation and characterization of antibodies from people with HIV infection that can neutralize many variants (1). These are referred to as broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). Such antibodies can be detected in about 25% of persons with untreated HIV-1 infection (2), reflecting a host immune response...
متن کاملDevelopment of an anti-HIV vaccine eliciting broadly neutralizing antibodies
The extreme HIV diversity posts a great challenge on development of an effective anti-HIV vaccine. To solve this problem, it is crucial to discover an appropriate immunogens and strategies that are able to prevent the transmission of the diverse viruses that are circulating in the world. Even though there have been a number of broadly neutralizing anti-HIV antibodies (bNAbs) been discovered in ...
