CD8+ T cells in HIV control, cure and prevention
HIV infection can be effectively treated by lifelong administration of combination antiretroviral
therapy, but an effective vaccine will likely be required to end the HIV epidemic. Although the …

Past, present and future: 30 years of HIV research
F Barré-Sinoussi, AL Ross, JF Delfraissy - Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2013 - nature.com
This year marks the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of the study that first reported the
isolation of HIV-1. In this Timeline article, we provide a historical perspective of some of the …

Post-treatment HIV-1 controllers with a long-term virological remission after the interruption of early initiated antiretroviral therapy ANRS VISCONTI Study
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) reduces HIV-associated morbidities and
mortalities but cannot cure the infection. Given the difficulty of eradicating HIV-1, a functional …

Stimulation of HIV-1-specific cytolytic T lymphocytes facilitates elimination of latent viral reservoir after virus reactivation
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) suppresses HIV-1 replication but cannot
eliminate the virus because HIV-1 establishes latent infection. Interruption of HAART leads …

Human immunodeficiency virus controllers: mechanisms of durable virus control in the absence of antiretroviral therapy
Chronic viral infections can appear in two very different forms: those that are typically
immunologically contained after acute symptomatic infection, such as Epstein-Barr virus …

TOX is expressed by exhausted and polyfunctional human effector memory CD8+ T cells
CD8+ T cell exhaustion is a hallmark of many cancers and chronic infections. In mice, T cell
factor 1 (TCF-1) maintains exhausted CD8+ T cell responses, whereas thymocyte selection …

Genetic and immunologic heterogeneity among persons who control HIV infection in the absence of therapy
Background. Spontaneous control of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has
been documented in a minority of HIV-infected individuals. The mechanisms behind this …
