HLA Heterozygote Advantage against HIV-1 Is Driven by Quantitative and Qualitative Differences in HLA Allele-Specific Peptide Presentation

Jacques Fellay

Pathogen-mediated balancing selection is regarded as a key driver of host immunogenetic diversity. A hallmark for balancing selection in humans is the heterozygote advantage at genes of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA), resulting in improved HIV-1 control ...

Heritability of the HIV-1 reservoir size and decay under long-term suppressive ART

Jacques Fellay, Chenjie Wan

The HIV-1 reservoir is the major hurdle to curing HIV-1. However, the impact of the viral genome on the HIV-1 reservoir, i.e. its heritability, remains unknown. We investigate the heritability of the HIV-1 reservoir size and its long-term decay by analyzin ...

Host Genomics of the HIV-1 Reservoir Size and Its Decay Rate During Suppressive Antiretroviral Treatment

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Alessandro Borghesi

Background: The primary hurdle for the eradication of HIV-1 is the establishment of a latent viral reservoir early after primary infection. Here, we investigated the potential influence of human genetic variation on the HIV-1 reservoir size and its decay r ...

Non-Toxic Virucidal Macromolecules Show High Efficacy Against Influenza Virus Ex Vivo and In Vivo

Francesco Stellacci, Özgün Kocabiyik, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Valeria Cagno, Yong Zhu, Chiara Medaglia

Influenza is one of the most widespread viral infections worldwide and represents a major public health problem. The risk that one of the next pandemics is caused by an influenza strain is high. It is important to develop broad-spectrum influenza antiviral ...

HIV peptidome-wide association study reveals patient-specific epitope repertoires associated with HIV control

Jacques Fellay, Nimisha Chaturvedi, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Genetic variation in the peptide-binding groove of the highly polymorphic HLA class I molecules has repeatedly been associated with HIV-1 control and progression to AIDS, accounting for up to 12% of the variation in HIV-1 set point viral load (spVL). This ...

HIV Transmission Chains Exhibit Greater HLA-B Homogeneity Than Randomly Expected

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Background: HIV's capacity to escape immune recognition by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is a core component of HIV pathogenesis. A better understanding of the distribution of HLA class I in HIV-infected patients would improve our knowledge of pathogenesis ...

Effect of Fc Receptor Genetic Diversity on HIV-1 Disease Pathogenesis

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Fc receptor (FcR) genes collectively have copy number and allelic polymorphisms that have been implicated in multiple inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. This variation might also be involved in etiology of infectious diseases. The protective role of Fc- ...

Gene drives for schistosomiasis transmission control

Francisco Javier Perez Saez

Schistosomiasis is one of the most important and widespread neglected tropical diseases (NTD), with over 200 million people infected in more than 70 countries; the disease has nearly 800 million people at risk in endemic areas. Although mass drug administr ...

Differential immunodominance hierarchy of CD8+ T cell responses in HLA-B27:05 and B27:02-mediated control of HIV-1 infection

Jacques Fellay

The well-characterised association between HLA-B27:05 and protection against HIV disease progression has been linked to immunodominant HLA-B27:05-restricted CD8+ T-cell responses towards the conserved Gag 263-272 ('KK10') and Pol 901-909 'KY9' epitopes. ...

Interferon lambda 3/4 polymorphisms are associated with AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma

Jacques Fellay, Patrick Taffe

Background: Kaposi's sarcoma, the most common AIDS-related cancer, represents a major public concern in resource-limited countries. Single nucleotide polymorphisms within the Interferon lambda 3/4 region (IFNL3/4) determine the expression, function of IFNL ...

Genetics of human susceptibility to active and latent tuberculosis: present knowledge and future perspectives

Jacques Fellay, Nimisha Chaturvedi

Tuberculosis is an ancient human disease, estimated to have originated and evolved over thousands of years alongside modern human populations. Despite considerable advances in disease control, tuberculosis remains one of the world's deadliest communicable ...
