A Novel Acute Retroviral Syndrome Severity Score Predicts the Key Surrogate Markers for HIV-1 Disease Progression

Objective: Best long-term practice in primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) remains unknown for the individual. A risk-based scoring system associated with surrogate markers of HIV-1 disease progression could be helpful to stratify patients with PHI at highest ris ...

Dynamics of HIV Latency and Reactivation in a Primary CD4+T Cell Model

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Istvan Bartha

HIV latency is a major obstacle to curing infection. Current strategies to eradicate HIV aim at increasing transcription of the latent provirus. In the present study we observed that latently infected CD4+ T cells from HIV-infected individuals failed to pr ...

GuavaH: a compendium of host genomic data in HIV biology and disease

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha

Background: There is an ever-increasing volume of data on host genes that are modulated during HIV infection, influence disease susceptibility or carry genetic variants that impact HIV infection. We created GuavaH (Genomic Utility for Association and Viral ...

Micro-Structural Brain Alterations in Aviremic HIV+ Patients with Minor Neurocognitive Disorders: A Multi-Contrast Study at High Field

Reto Meuli, Tobias Kober, Alessandro Daducci, Cristina Granziera, Gunnar Krüger, François Lazeyras, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Alexis Roche

Objective Mild neurocognitive disorders (MND) affect a subset of HIV+ patients under effective combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). In this study, we used an innovative multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approach at high-field to assess ...

A genome-wide association study of resistance to HIV infection in highly exposed uninfected individuals with hemophilia A

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Human genetic variation contributes to differences in susceptibility to HIV-1 infection. To search for novel host resistance factors, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in hemophilia patients highly exposed to potentially contaminated fact ...

Contribution of Genetic Background, Traditional Risk Factors, and HIV-Related Factors to Coronary Artery Disease Events in HIV-Positive Persons

Jacques Fellay

Background. Persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have increased rates of coronary artery disease (CAD). The relative contribution of genetic background, HIV-related factors, antiretroviral medications, and traditional risk factors to CA ...

Influence of HLA-C Expression Level on HIV Control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

A variant upstream of human leukocyte antigen C (HLA-C) shows the most significant genome-wide effect on HIV control in European Americans and is also associated with the level of HLA-C expression. We characterized the differential cell surface expression ...
