The carbohydrate at asparagine 386 on HIV-1 gp120 is not essential for protein folding and function but is involved in immune evasionRogier W Sanders
Laboratory of Experimental Virology, Dept, Medical Microbiology, Center of Infection and Immunity Amsterdam CINIMA, Academic Medical Center of the University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Retrovirology 5:10. 2008..Here we studied the role of the carbohydrate at position 386. We identified a virus variant that had lost the 386 glycan in an evolution study of a mutant virus lacking the disulfide bond at the base of the V4 domain...
Efficient HIV-1 transmission from macrophages to T cells across transient virological synapsesFedde Groot
Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom
Blood 111:4660-3. 2008..Since HIV-1-infected macrophages can survive for many weeks, these results highlight the central role played by macrophages in HIV-1 infection and pathogenesis...
Dendritic cell-mediated HIV-1 transmission to T cells of LAD-1 patients is impaired due to the defect in LFA-1Fedde Groot
Department of Cell Biology and Histology, Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Retrovirology 3:75. 2006..To corroborate the importance of the ICAM-1- LFA-1 interaction, we performed transmission experiments to LFA-1 negative leukocytes from Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency type 1 (LAD-1) patients...
Lactoferrin prevents dendritic cell-mediated human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transmission by blocking the DC-SIGN--gp120 interactionFedde Groot
Department of Human Retrovirology, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
J Virol 79:3009-15. 2005..DC-mediated capture of a bLF-resistant HIV-1 variant that was selected during long-term culturing in T cells could still be blocked by bLF. This underscores the usefulness of bLF as a microbicide drug to prevent HIV-1 transmission...
Lewis X component in human milk binds DC-SIGN and inhibits HIV-1 transfer to CD4+ T lymphocytesMarloes A Naarding
Department of Human Retrovirology, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
J Clin Invest 115:3256-64. 2005..The presence of such a DC-SIGN-binding molecule in human milk may both influence antigenic presentation and interfere with pathogen transfer in breastfed infants...
Opposing roles of blood myeloid and plasmacytoid dendritic cells in HIV-1 infection of T cells: transmission facilitation versus replication inhibitionFedde Groot
Department of Human Retrovirology, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Meibergdreef 15, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Blood 108:1957-64. 2006..This study shows that the 2 main types of DCs have opposing roles in HIV-1 infection of T cells...
Differential susceptibility of naïve, central memory and effector memory T cells to dendritic cell-mediated HIV-1 transmissionFedde Groot
Dept, of Cell Biology and Histology, Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Retrovirology 3:52. 2006..The TEM cell subset, which can be further divided into effector Th1 and Th2 cells, has been shown to be the prime target for viral replication after HIV-1 infection, and is abundantly present in mucosal tissues...
Stimulated plasmacytoid dendritic cells impair human T-cell developmentHeike Schmidlin
Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Blood 108:3792-800. 2006..It is evident from our data that IFN-alpha inhibits the IL-7R signal transduction pathway, although this could not be attributed to interference with either IL-7R proximal (STAT5, Akt/PKB, Erk1/2) or distal (p27(kip1), pRb) events...
Histatin 5-derived peptide with improved fungicidal properties enhances human immunodeficiency virus type 1 replication by promoting viral entryFedde Groot
Department of Human Retrovirology, Academic Medical Center, Meibergdreef 15, University of Amsterdam, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands
J Virol 80:9236-43. 2006..This study shows that modification of antimicrobial peptides in order to improve their activity against a pathogen may have unpredictable and unwanted side effects on other pathogens...
