HIV-specific ADCC - new technologies to study ADCC and importance for the HIV vaccine field.
Abstract
There is now intense interest in the role of HIV-specific antibodies and the engagement of FcγR functions in the control and prevention of HIV infection. The RV144 vaccine study, natural progression cohorts, and macaque studies all point to a role for antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in the control of HIV. However, reliable assays that can be reproducibly used across different laboratories to measure ADCC and other Fc-dependent functions of antibodies are limited. We recently developed a novel ELISA-based assay to detect the binding of viral antigen-specific antibodies to the ectodomains o...

A Digital Signal Processing-Based Bioinformatics Approach to Identifying the Origins of HIV-1 Non B Subtypes Infecting US Army Personnel Serving Abroad.
Abstract
Two HIV-1 non B subtype isolates, 98US_MSC5007 and 98US_MSC5016, which have been identified amongst the US Army personnel serving abroad, are known to have originated from other nations. Notwithstanding, they are categorized as American strains. This is because their countries of origin are unknown. American isolates are basically B subtype. 98US_MSC5007 belongs to Circulating Recombinant Form (CRF02_AG) while 98US_MSC5016 is of the C clade. Both sub-groups are recognized to have originated from African and Asian continents. It has become necessary to properly determine the countries of origin of microbes a...

Mucosal Vaccination for Prevention of HIV Infection and AIDS.
CONCLUSION: The rationale for generating both strong mucosal and systemic immunity comes from animal experiments, recent clinical trials, and other successful vaccines currently in use. Mucosal responses against SIV have been induced with a variety of SIV antigens and via different mucosal routes with a spectrum of effects on protection. This review covers the rational and the experimental data that support the validity to explore mucosal immunization for HIV infection and AIDS prevention.

Willingness to Be Vaccinated Against COVID-19 Among People With HIV in the United States: Results From a National Survey
CONCLUSIONS: The vast majority of PWH were willing to be vaccinated, though predominantly those who were already engaged in HIV care or directly affected by COVID-19. Findings from this large survey of PWH suggest intensive outreach efforts are needed to support engagement in vaccination programs, particularly among Black and politically conservative PWH.PMID:35847816 | PMC:PMC9280331 | DOI:10.3389/fmed.2022.886936
