HIV-1 Reprograms CD4 T Cell Responses by Impairing Antigen-specific Communication with Dendritic Cells
2025-08-15
Abstract excerpt
HIV-1 infection causes general dysfunction of adaptive immune cells that persists even under therapy but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Antigen-specific interactions of the main target cells of HIV, CD4 T cells, with dendritic cells (DCs) orchestrate global T cell responses and convey help to CD8 T cells. Here we report that HIV-1, by virtue of its pathogenesis factor Nef, impairs activation and transcr...
