Prostratin Induces HIV Activation and Downregulates HIV Receptors in Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes
2004-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Induction of HIV expression through lymphocyte activation has been proposed as a strategy to purge latent reservoirs. Prostratin is a non-tumourogenic phorbol ester that delays HIV replication in vitro, but paradoxically activates HIV expression in latently infected cells. To get a better insight into the mechanisms of action of prostratin, we have analysed the effect of prostratin on HIV activation and HIV recept...
