REV-ERBα/β Targeting Transcriptionally Reprograms HIV-Infected CD4+ T-Cells for Increased Viral Reactivation but Limited Virion Spread

Christ Dominique Ngassaki Yoka, Jean-Philippe Goulet, Soumia Khalfi…·Petronela Ancuța

This study shows that inhibiting REV-ERBβ increases HIV-1 reactivation in CD4+ T-cells but limits virion spread.

Metformin Enhances Antibody-Mediated Recognition of HIV-Infected CD4+ T-Cells by Decreasing Viral Release

Augustine Fert, Jonathan Richard, Laurence Raymond Marchand…·Petronela Ancuța

This study shows metformin reduces HIV-1 virion release and increases antibody recognition of infected CD4+ T-cells by modulating BST2 and Bcl-2 expression in HIV-positive individuals on ART.
