Spontaneous control of viral replication during primary HIV infection: when is "HIV controller" status established?

13 Sep 2009 Eight patients in the ANRS PRIMO cohort experienced early spontaneous viral control. Viral control was established a median of 6.2 months after primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection and lasted a median of 4.1 years. Seven of the ... Read more...

Impact of select immunologic and virologic biomarkers on CD4 cell count decrease in patients with chronic HIV-1 subtype C infection: results from Sinikithemba Cohort, Durban, South Africa.

13 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: The extent to which immunologic and clinical biomarkers influence human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection outcomes remains incompletely characterized, particularly for non-B subtypes. On the basis of data supporting in ... Read more...

Genetic evidence for the role of Erk activation in a lymphoproliferative disease of mice.

8 Aug 2009 Germline mutation of the linker for activation of T cells (LAT) gene at the phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1)-binding site leads to a fatal lymphoproliferative disease in mice. The hyperactivated T cells that develop in these mice have defective ... Read more...
