Short communication: Evidence that microbial translocation occurs in HIV-infected children in the United Kingdom.
Microbial translocation (MT) from the gut is implicated in driving immune activation, increasing morbidity and mortality in HIV. We used bacterial 16S rDNA PCR, Sanger sequencing, and high-throughput sequencing to identify microbial DNA in the bloodstream of HIV-infected children in London, United Kingdom. Blood samples were collected from sequential children attending the HIV clinic at Great O...
متن کاملThe MAP kinases are differently utilized by CD28 and CD2 adhesion pathways in superantigen-activated Jurkat T cells.
To mimic the two-signal requirements for T cell activation mediated by ligands, we exposed the superantigens SEA or SEE (signal 1) to T cells incubated with HLA-DR/LFA-3 or HLA-DR/B7-1-CHO transfected cells (signal 2). LFA-3 costimulation was able to induce T cell proliferation as well as IFN-gamma and IL-4 production at similar levels as in cells induced by B7-1. Analysis of the CD28RE of the ...
متن کاملInterleukin-converting Enzyme Expression in Lymphocytes from HIV-infected Patients
Apoptosis of CD4 1 lymphocytes is partially responsible for the depletion of these cells in HIV-infected individuals. CD4 1 lymphocytes from HIV-1–infected patients express higher membrane levels of the Fas receptor, and are particularly susceptible to apoptosis after Fas triggering. IL-1 b – converting enzyme (ICE) is a key enzyme of the apoptotic machinery involved in Fas-mediated apoptosis o...
متن کاملPhenotypic characterization of lymphocytes in HCV/HIV co-infected patients.
While hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific immune responses are attenuated in HCV/HIV co-infected patients compared to those infected with HCV alone, the reasons for this remain unclear. In this study, the proportions of regulatory, naïve, and memory T cells, along with chemokine receptor expression, were measured in co-infected and mono-infected patients to determine if there is an alteration in t...
متن کاملHistone Deacetylase Inhibitors Impair the Elimination of HIV-Infected Cells by Cytotoxic T-Lymphocytes
Resting memory CD4+ T-cells harboring latent HIV proviruses represent a critical barrier to viral eradication. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), such as suberanilohydroxamic acid (SAHA), romidepsin, and panobinostat have been shown to induce HIV expression in these resting cells. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the low levels of viral gene expression induced by a candidate HDACi ...
