Natural killer cells from HIV-1+ patients produce C-C chemokines and inhibit HIV-1 infection.
Human NK cells have been shown to produce cytokines (e.g., IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha) and the chemokine macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha following stimulation with the combination of two monokines, IL-15 plus IL-12. The C-C chemokines MIP-1alpha, MIP-1beta, and RANTES have been identified as the major soluble macrophage-tropic HIV-1-suppressive factors produced by CD8+ T cells, which ...
متن کاملNatural Hosts of SIV Infection
Presentations at the 9th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections, held in Seattle, February 24 to 28, 2002, continued to shed light on the complex interactions between HIV and the immune system. Major topics of discussion included natural hosts of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection, the dynamics of T lymphocytes, the myriad mechanisms utilized by HIV to avoid host imm...
متن کاملPPARγ and LXR Signaling Inhibit Dendritic Cell-Mediated HIV-1 Capture and trans-Infection
Dendritic cells (DCs) contribute to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmission and dissemination by capturing and transporting infectious virus from the mucosa to draining lymph nodes, and transferring these virus particles to CD4+ T cells with high efficiency. Toll-like receptor (TLR)-induced maturation of DCs enhances their ability to mediate trans-infection of T cells and their...
متن کاملEvaluation of cystatin C activities against HIV
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Several host defense proteins known to possess antimicrobial activities are present on mucosal surfaces and are consequently found in body fluids of vertebrates. Naturally occurring protease inhibitors like cystatins, especially cystatin C (cys C), are abundantly present in human seminal plasma. Although its antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus (HSV) has been ...
متن کاملGlobal Anti-AIDS Program - High Safety Failure without HIV Infection
از اواخر سال ۱۹۸۹، تعدادی از محققین کشورهای توسعه یافته، مواردی از نارسایی شدید سیستم ایمنی بدون آلودگی به ویروسهای نارسایی ایمنی انسانی (1- HTV, 2- HIV ) و بدون دلیل مشخص را مستقلا گزارش کردند. این موارد، از کشورهای استرالیا ، دانمارک ، فرانسه، آلمان، اسپانیا، انگلستان و ایالات متحده آمریکا گزارش شده بودند. تعدادی از موارد فوق همراه با برخی موارد گزارش شده قبلی، در هشتمین کنفرانس بین المللی...
