Identification of dual-tropic HIV-1 using evolved neural networks.

Bio Systems
Blocking the binding of the envelope HIV-1 protein to immune cells is a popular concept for development of anti-HIV therapeutics. R5 HIV-1 binds CCR5, X4 HIV-1 binds CXCR4, and dual-tropic HIV-1 can bind either coreceptor for cellular entry. R5 virus...

High frequency of neurosyphilis in HIV-positive patients diagnosed with early syphilis.

HIV medicine
BACKGROUND: Syphilis is an infection frequently seen with HIV, and European guidelines on the management of syphilis suggest that HIV-infected patients may have an increased risk of early neurological involvement, sometimes asymptomatic. Recent study...

Machine learning methods enable predictive modeling of antibody feature:function relationships in RV144 vaccinees.

PLoS computational biology
The adaptive immune response to vaccination or infection can lead to the production of specific antibodies to neutralize the pathogen or recruit innate immune effector cells for help. The non-neutralizing role of antibodies in stimulating effector ce...

Utilizing Machine Learning to Improve Neutralization Potency of an HIV-1 Antibody Targeting the gp41 N-Heptad Repeat.

ACS chemical biology
The N-heptad repeat (NHR) of the HIV-1 gp41 prehairpin intermediate (PHI) is an attractive potential vaccine target with high sequence conservation across diverse strains. However, despite the potency of NHR-targeting peptides and clinical efficacy o...

Integrating different approaches for the identification of new disruptors of HIV-1 capsid multimerization.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) belongs to the Lentivirus genus, Retroviridae family, enveloped by a lipid bilayer within which the capsid protein encases the viral genome, reverse transcriptase, and integrase proteins, key components for viral re...

Prediction of HIV sensitivity to monoclonal antibodies using aminoacid sequences and deep learning.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Knowing the sensitivity of a viral strain versus a monoclonal antibody is of interest for HIV vaccine development and therapy. The HIV strains vary in their resistance to antibodies, and the accurate prediction of virus-antibody sensitivi...

[Prevalence of transmitted drug resistance in HIV-infected treatment-naive patients in Chile].

Revista medica de Chile
BACKGROUND: Transmitted drug resistance (TDR) occurs in patients with HIV infection who are not exposed to antiretroviral drugs but who are infected with a virus with mutations associated with resistance.

Super learner analysis of real-time electronically monitored adherence to antiretroviral therapy under constrained optimization and comparison to non-differentiated care approaches for persons living with HIV in rural Uganda.

Journal of the International AIDS Society
INTRODUCTION: Real-time electronic adherence monitoring (EAM) systems could inform on-going risk assessment for HIV viraemia and be used to personalize viral load testing schedules. We evaluated the potential of real-time EAM (transferred via cellula...

Characteristics of Long-term Nonprogressors and Viremia Controllers Infected with HIV-1 via Contaminated Blood Donations or Transfusions Conducted 20 Years Earlier.

Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES
To characterize long-term nonprogressors (LTNPs) and viremia controllers (VCs), infected with HIV-1 through contaminated blood donation or transfusion between 1992 and 1996 in Henan, China. LTNPs and VCs were defined by CD4+T lymphocyte (CD4) count a...
