  7. Early Events in HIV infection are critical Early pathogenic events: Inflammation/activation & reservoirs Critical for vaccine and cure research…

  8. How HIV persist during therapy Viral replication T cell survival Proliferation Courtesy of Nicolas Chomont - Ongoing viral replication occurs insubject on suppressive HAART (TW Chun JCI; N Tobin, J Virol 2005) - HIV integrate in long lived resting memory T cells and persist despite suppressive HAART (TW Chun, Nat Med 1995; D Finzi, Science; TW Chun PNAS 1997) - Reservoir cells, like other memory T cells, divide very slowly to maintain the memory of the immune system (A. Bosque and V. Planelles) Better knowledge of viral and host factors implicated in establishment of HIV reservoirs and in HIV persistence

  9. Why it should be possible to obtain at least functional cure for HIV/AIDS? Definition: Permanent suppression of viral replication without eradicating the virus from the body => Long-term remission + Prevention • A decrease in viral load is clearly associated with clinical benefit • Proof of concept from the Berlin patient (bone marrow transplant of CCR532 stem cells) • A small percentage (<0.3%) of HIV-1-infected subjects show no disease progression and/or spontaneous control of viral replication (e.g. long-term nonprogressors and “HIV Controllers”) • African NHP infected by SIV are naturally protected against disease progression It is time to engage in research towards an HIV Cure
