چکیده

Preventing mucosal transmission of HIV is critical to halting the HIV epidemic. Novel approaches to preventing mucosal transmission are needed. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a major extracellular component of mucosa and the primary ligand for the cell surface receptor CD44. CD44 enhances HIV infection of CD4(+) T cells, but the role of HA in this process is not clear. To study this, virions were generated with CD44 (HIVCD44) or without CD44 (HIVmock). Exogenous HA reduced HIV infection of unstimulated CD4(+) T cells in a CD44-dependent manner. Conversely, hyaluronidase-mediated reduction of endogenous HA on the cell surface enhanced HIV binding to and infection of unstimulated CD4(+) T cells. Exogenous HA treatment reduced activation of protein kinase C alpha via CD44 on CD4(+) T cells during infection with HIVCD44. These results reveal new roles for HA during the interaction of HIV with CD4(+) T cells that may be relevant to mucosal HIV transmission and could be exploitable as a future strategy to prevent HIV infection.

Numerical analysis of fractional order model of HIV-1 infection of CD4+ T-cells

In this article, we present a fractional order HIV-1 infection model of CD4+ T-cell. We analyze the effect of the changing the average number of the viral particle N with initial conditions of the presented model. The Laplace Adomian decomposition method is applying to check the analytical solution of the problem. We obtain the solutions of the fractional order HIV-1 model in the form of infini...

Numerical solution of a fractional order model of HIV infection of CD4+T cells.

In this paper we consider a fractional order model of HIV infection of  CD4+T cells and we transform this fractional order system of ordinary differential equations to a system of weakly singular integral equations. Afterwards we propose a Nystrom method for solving resulting system, convergence result and order of convergence is obtained by using conditions of existence and uniqueness of solut...

Evaluation of clinical course and laboratory findings in HIV/HTLV-1 co-infection compare with HIV mono infection

Background: In the last 10 years, co-infection of human immunodeficiency virus/human T-cell leukemia virus-1 (HIV/HTLV-1) has emerged as a worldwide health problem. These viruses has the same route to infect human but different effects on CD4 positive T-cells. There was controversial results about the influence of co-infection HIV/HTLV-1 pathogenesis. This study compared clinical course and lab...

Convergence of the multistage variational iteration method for solving a general system of ordinary differential equations

In this paper, the multistage variational iteration method is implemented to solve a general form of the system of first-order differential equations. The convergence of the proposed method is given. To illustrate the proposed method, it is applied to a model for HIV infection of CD4+ T cells and the numerical results are compared with those of a recently proposed method.
