Article Abstract

Background: The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pandemic is a global health emergency. Studies suggest a connection between heat shock proteins (HSPs) and HIV-1 infection pathogenesis. This systematic review aims to summarize HSPs' role in HIV-1 infection pathogenesis.

Materials And Methods: A systematic literature search was undertaken across the National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE-PubMed), Science Direct, Web of Science, Scopus, SpringerLink, Sage, ProQuest, and Google Scholar databases, using related keywords to synthesize the HSPs' role in HIV-1 infection pathogenesis. This literature review was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, and the protocol was registered in the Open Science Framework (OSF) database under DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/VK3DJ.

Results: A database search revealed 3,332 articles, with 14 studies analysing the interaction between HSPs and HIV-1 across different cell types. HSPs are involved in HIV-1 infection through direct interactions and indirect responses to cellular stress, including HSP40, HSP70, HSPBP1, and HSP90. The study explores HSP interactions at various stages of the viral life cycle, including entry, uncoating, replication, transmission, and latency reactivation.

Conclusion: HSPs are crucial for the HIV lifecycle and immune response, offering the potential for new therapeutic strategies. Further research is needed to understand the clinical significance and target potential.

Insights Into Kaposi Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus-Specific Humoral Responses.

J Med Virol

September 2025

Department of Interdisciplinary Oncology, School of Medicine, Stanley S. Scott Cancer Center of Excellence, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA.

Kaposi sarcoma (KS) remains a global health concern. In sub-Saharan Africa, where there is a high burden of HIV-1 infection, there is also a high prevalence of infection by the etiologic agent of KS, the KS-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). Despite the successes of antiretroviral treatment (ART), the burden of KS and other KSHV-associated malignancies among people living with HIV under ART remained high, stressing the need for a greater understanding of the immune response against KSHV infection.

Switch to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide in people living with HIV aged 65 years or older: BICOLDER study - IMEA 057.

J Infect Public Health

September 2025

AP-HP, Hospital Bichat - Claude-Bernard, Infectious and Tropical Diseases Department, IAME UMR 1137 INSERM, Université Paris Cité, France; IMEA, Hospital Bichat-Claude Bernard, Paris, France.

Background: Polymedication and comorbidities are frequent in aging people with HIV (PWH) and often associated with elevated incidences of adverse events (AEs) and drug-drug interactions (DDIs). The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety and practicality of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF), an antiretroviral (ARV) therapy with limited DDIs, in an elderly virologically-controlled PWH population.

Materials And Methods: This study was prospective, multicentric, single-arm conducted in HIV-1 controlled PWH aged over 65 years who switched from a ritonavir- or cobicistat-boosted containing regimen to B/F/TAF.

DMBT1 promotes SARS-CoV-2 infection and its SRCR-derived peptide inhibits SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Antiviral Res

September 2025

Department of Immunology and Pathogen Biology, Key Laboratory of Pathogen and Host-Interactions, Ministry of Education, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai 200331, China. Electronic address:

DMBT1 is a large scavenger receptor cysteine rich (SRCR) B protein that has been reported as a tumor suppressor gene and a co-receptor for HIV-1 infection. Here we found DMBT1 is a major mucosal protein bound to SARS-CoV-2. Overexpression of DMBT1 in 293T cells may enhanced infection by SARS-CoV-2 in ACE2 dependent manner.

This study analyzed the correlation between false-positive HIV ELISA results (using Bio-Rad reagents) and SARS-COV-2 antibody levels in 301 unpaid apheresis platelet donors with prior infection or vaccination, enrolled from Zhejiang Blood Center between February 1 and May 31, 2023. Trends in both the HIV ELISA false-positive rate and SARS-COV-2 antibody levels were assessed. The false-positive rate rose in early 2023, peaking at 0.
