Article Abstract

Limited longitudinal data exist on the effect of HIV on adipose tissue (AT). We found an increase in CD4+ cells and detectable SHIV-RNA in AT during acute SHIV infection. SHIV-RNA+ cells were rare, suggesting that AT is unlikely to be a major source of productively infected cells in SHIV infection.

LP-98 is a lipopeptide HIV fusion inhibitor showing strong treatment and pre-exposure prophylaxis efficacies in non-human primates. In this study, we further characterized its pharmacokinetics, long-lasting antiviral activity, and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) efficacy using 62 macaques. In cynomolgus macaques, LP-98 achieved high concentrations (C) with a half-life (T) of ∼31 h, and sustained an effective therapeutic concentration for two weeks post-injection.

In confronting the critical challenge of disease outbreak management, health authorities consistently encourage individuals to voluntarily disclose a potential exposure to infection and adhere to self-quarantine protocols by assuring medical care (hospital beds, oxygen, and constant health monitoring) and helplines for severe patients. These have been observed during pandemics; for example, COVID-19 phases in many middle-income countries, such as India, promoted quarantine and reduced stigma. Here, we present a game-theoretic model to elucidate the behavioural interactions in infection disclosure during an outbreak.

During the cropping seasons of 2019-20, 2020-21, and 2021-22, respectively, lentil genotypes were screened against Stemphylium blight using the Alpha-Lattice Design with three replications at Pulses Research Centre, BARI, Ishurdi, Pabna-6620 under natural and artificial epiphytotic conditions. In case of artificial inoculum condition, the artificial cultured inoculums were sprayed at 1.3 × 10 spores/mL concentration of spores for spore inoculation in the experimental plots.

Broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the V2 apex of HIV-1 envelope are desired as vaccine design templates, but few have been described. Here, we report 11 lineages of V2 apex-neutralizing antibodies from simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV)-infected rhesus macaques and determine cryo-EM structures for 9. A single V2 apex-neutralizing lineage accounted for cross-clade breadth in most macaques, and somatic hypermutation relative to breadth was generally low, exemplified by antibody V033-a.

Objectives: The rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2 and the emergence of new variants have resulted in mutations in the Spike protein's receptor-binding domain (RBD), enhancing its binding affinity to the ACE2 receptor and increasing viral transmissibility. This study aims to identify inhibitors that can disrupt the Spike-ACE2 interaction, potentially preventing viral entry and immune evasion. The selected compounds may emerge as putative drugs following further studies.
