Cytotoxic lymphocytes target HIV-1 Gag through granzyme M-mediated cleavage
2021-02-24
Abstract excerpt
HIV-1 leads to progression to immunodeficiency and death of individuals who do not receive successful antiretroviral therapy. Initially, the host’s immune response controls the infection, but cannot eliminate the HIV-1 from the host. Cytotoxic lymphocytes are the key effector cells in this response and can mediate crucial antiviral responses through the release of a set of proteases called granzymes towards HIV-1-...
