Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies to Fight HIV-1: On the Threshold of Success
Anti-human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (anti-HIV-1) neutralizing monoclonal antibodies are broadening the spectrum of pre- and post-exposure treatment against HIV-1. A better understanding of how these antibodies develop and interact with particular regions of the viral envelope protein is guiding a more rational structure-based immunogen design. The aim of this article is to review the most ...
متن کاملRecent Progress toward Engineering HIV-1-Specific Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies
The recent discoveries of broadly potent neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies represent a new generation of antiretrovirals for the treatment and prophylaxis. Antibodies are generally considered more effective and safer and have been proved to provide passive protection against mucosal challenge in humanized mice and macaques. Several neutralizing Abs could protect animals against HIV-1 but...
متن کاملNeutralizing cross-reactive and non-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to HIV-1 gp120.
Amino acid sequences inducing neutralizing antibodies to HIV-1 were sought. Murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were characterized by their reactivity with the envelope precursor gp160 or the Escherichia coli recombinant DNA products pB1 and pE3 representing the carboxy- and amino-terminal halves of mature envelope gp120. Fine mapping of the MAb determinants was performed using defined 15-mer s...
متن کاملBroadly neutralizing antibodies to prevent HIV-1.
A dvances in technology—especially single-cell antibody cloning techniques—have led to the isolation and characterization of antibodies from people with HIV infection that can neutralize many variants (1). These are referred to as broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). Such antibodies can be detected in about 25% of persons with untreated HIV-1 infection (2), reflecting a host immune response...
متن کاملRational design of envelope identifies broadly neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies to HIV-1.
Cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) are found in the sera of many HIV-1-infected individuals, but the virologic basis of their neutralization remains poorly understood. We used knowledge of HIV-1 envelope structure to develop antigenically resurfaced glycoproteins specific for the structurally conserved site of initial CD4 receptor binding. These probes were used to identify sera with...
