The tissue origin(s) and the earliest viral dynamics of HIV rebound after antiretroviral therapy (ART) remain unclear. Here, using barcoded SIVmac239 in rhesus macaques (n = 24), we defined the distribution of barcode-specific viral RNA expression in tissues during ART (n = …

HIV/SIV-specific CD8+ T cell responses are typically unable to control viral rebound following antiretroviral therapy (ART) interruption (ATI). To investigate whether enhancing the magnitude and activation of SIV-specific CD8+ T cells at the time of ATI can improve the immune interception of …

ABSTRACT Lim et al. previously reported that TLR7 agonist (Vesatolimod [VES] or the related compound GS-986) administration to SIVmac251-infected macaques receiving combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) led to transient plasma viral load (PVL) increases, viral DNA (vDNA) reductions in blood and tissues, and, …

Persistence of the rebound-competent viral reservoir (RCVR) within the CD4+ T cell compartment of people living with HIV remains a major barrier to HIV cure. Here, we determined the effects of the pan-lymphocyte-depleting monoclonal antibody (mAb) alemtuzumab on the RCVR in SIVmac239-infected …

The rebound competent viral reservoir (RCVR)-virus that persists during antiretroviral treatment (ART) and can reignite systemic infection when treatment is stopped-is the primary barrier to eradicating HIV. We used time to initiation of ART during primary infection of rhesus macaques (RMs) after …

The strain 68-1 rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV)–based vaccine for simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) can stringently protect rhesus macaques (RMs) from SIV challenge by arresting viral replication early in primary infection. This vaccine elicits unconventional SIV-specific CD8 + T cells that recognize epitopes presented …

Abstract Strain 68-1 rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) vectors expressing simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) antigens demonstrate a vaccine efficacy where 50–60% of vaccinated rhesus macaques are protected from SIV challenge. Intriguingly, RhCMV/SIV vectors elicit CD8+ T cells recognizing epitopes presented by MHC-II and MHC-E …

Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) challenge of rhesus macaques (RMs) vaccinated with strain 68-1 Rhesus Cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) vectors expressing SIV proteins (RhCMV/SIV) results in a binary outcome: stringent control and subsequent clearance of highly pathogenic SIV in ~55% of vaccinated RMs with no …

Viral peptide is key to T cell priming Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) vaccines containing a strain 68-1 rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) vector elicit strong CD8 + T cell responses that can control and clear SIV infections. The SIV peptides targeted by these T …

T cell responses as mediators of anti-SIV efficacy and indicate that translation of RhCMV/SIV vector efficacy to humans will likely require deletion of all genes that inhibit these responses from the HCMV/HIV vector.

The effectiveness of virus-specific strategies, including administered HIV-specific mAbs, to target cells that persistently harbor latent, rebound-competent HIV genomes during combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has been limited by inefficient induction of viral protein expression. To examine antibody-mediated viral reservoir targeting without a …
