    HIV infection and latency induce a unique metabolic signature in human macrophages

    Currently, a major barrier to curing HIV infection is the generation of tissue-associated, non-replicating, long-lasting viral reservoirs that are refractory to therapy and can be reactivated upon anti-retrovi...

    Tunneling nanotubes (TNT) mediate long-range gap junctional communication: Implications for HIV cell to cell spread

    Cell-to-cell communication is essen for the development of multicellular systems and is coordinated by soluble factors, exosomes, gap junction (GJ) channels, and the recently described tunneling nanotubes (TNT...

    HIV-infected macrophages and microglia that survive acute infection become viral reservoirs by a mechanism involving Bim

    While HIV kills most of the cells it infects, a small number of infected cells survive and become latent viral reservoirs, posing a significant barrier to HIV eradication. However, the mechanism by which immun...
