A double-edged sword: the role of NKT cells in malaria and HIV infection and immunitySandhya Vasan
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York, NY 10016, United States
Semin Immunol 22:87-96. 2010..This review discusses the various features of the interaction between NKT cells and malaria parasites and HIV, and the potential to harness this interaction for therapeutic and vaccine strategies...
Phase 1 safety and immunogenicity evaluation of ADVAX, a multigenic, DNA-based clade C/B' HIV-1 candidate vaccineSandhya Vasan
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York, New York, United States of America
PLoS ONE 5:e8617. 2010..Sequences were derived from a prevalent circulating recombinant form in Yunnan, China, an area of high HIV-1 incidence. The objective was to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of ADVAX in human volunteers...
Phase 1 safety and immunogenicity evaluation of ADMVA, a multigenic, modified vaccinia Ankara-HIV-1 B'/C candidate vaccineSandhya Vasan
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York, New York, United States of America
PLoS ONE 5:e8816. 2010..Sequences were derived from a prevalent circulating HIV-1 recombinant form in Yunnan, China, an area of high HIV incidence. The objective was to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of ADMVA in human volunteers...
In vivo electroporation enhances the immunogenicity of an HIV-1 DNA vaccine candidate in healthy volunteersSandhya Vasan
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York, New York, United States of America
PLoS ONE 6:e19252. 2011..DNA-based vaccines have been safe but weakly immunogenic in humans to date...
Clinical development of a novel CD1d-binding NKT cell ligand as a vaccine adjuvantNeal N Padte
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, Affiliate of The Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10016, USA
Clin Immunol 140:142-51. 2011..This review discusses the discovery and characterization of 7DW8-5 and the practical considerations of its preclinical and clinical development as a potential glycolipid adjuvant for candidate malaria and HIV vaccines...
Design of a potent CD1d-binding NKT cell ligand as a vaccine adjuvantXiangming Li
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York, NY 10016, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 107:13010-5. 2010..Through this rigorous and iterative screening process, we have identified a lead candidate glycolipid, 7DW8-5, that exhibits a superior adjuvant effect than alpha-GalCer on HIV and malaria vaccines in mice...
Neutralization profiles of newly transmitted human immunodeficiency virus type 1 by monoclonal antibodies 2G12, 2F5, and 4E10Saurabh Mehandru
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, The Rockefeller University, 455 First Ave, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10016, USA
J Virol 78:14039-42. 2004..We propose that the induction of 4E10-like antibodies should be a priority in designing immunogens to prevent HIV-1 infection...
Function of NKT cells, potential anti-HIV effector cells, are improved by beginning HAART during acute HIV-1 infectionSandhya Vasan
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, Rockefeller University, 455 First Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10016, USA
Int Immunol 19:943-51. 2007..Finally, preservation of NKT cell function may be important in HIV-infected individuals, as NKT cells display an anti-HIV-1 activity in vitro, mediated by IFN-gamma secretion...
HIV-1 and influenza antigens synthetically linked to IgG2a Fc elicit superior humoral responses compared to unmodified antigens in miceGerasimos J Zaharatos
Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, The Rockefeller University, 455 First Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10016, USA
