The study of N-linked glycosylation as it relates to virus biology has become an area of
intense interest in recent years due to its ability to impart various advantages to virus survival …

In the pursuit of achieving better therapeutic outcomes in the treatment of HIV, innovative
drug delivery strategies have been extensively explored. Mannose receptors, which are …

The Nef protein of primate lentiviruses is a unique protein that has evolved in several ways
to manipulate the biology of an infected cell to support viral replication, immune evasion …

Over the last four decades, H3N2 subtype influenza A viruses have gradually acquired
additional potential sites for glycosylation within the globular head of the hemagglutinin (HA) …

The HIV-1 accessory proteins Vif, Vpu, and Nef can promote infection by overcoming the
inhibitory effects of the host cell restriction factors APOBEC3G, Tetherin, and SERINC5 …

Vpr is a lentiviral accessory protein that is expressed late during the infection cycle and is
packaged in significant quantities into virus particles through a specific interaction with the …

We examined the expression of the mannose receptor CD206 by perivascular macrophages
(PVM) in normal human and monkey brains and in brains of HIV-infected humans and of …

In addition to CD4+ T lymphocytes, myeloid cells and, particularly, differentiated
macrophages are targets of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection via the …

HIV infects several cell types in the body, including CD4+ T cells and macrophages. Here
we review the role of macrophages in HIV infection and describe complex interactions …

HIV-1 Vpr is necessary for maximal HIV infection and spread in macrophages. Evolutionary
conservation of Vpr suggests an important yet poorly understood role for macrophages in …
