Journal ArticleDOI

Polonis,Francine E. McCutchan,Peter B. Gilbert,Steve Self,Bette T. Korber,David C. Montefiori,John R. Mascola +18 more
TL;DR: These data provide the first systematic assessment of the overall neutralization sensitivities of a genetically and geographically diverse panel of circulating HIV-1 strains and can facilitate the systematic characterization of NAb responses elicited by candidate vaccine immunogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recombination in HIV-1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of unique primate T-lymphotropic viruses among central African bushmeat hunters
Nathan D. Wolfe,Walid Heneine,Jean K. Carr,Albert D. Garcia,Vedapuri Shanmugam,Ubald Tamoufe,Judith N. Torimiro,A. Tassy Prosser,Matthew LeBreton,Eitel Mpoudi-Ngole,Francine E. McCutchan,Deborah L. Birx,Thomas M. Folks,Donald S. Burke,William M. Switzer +14 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that cross-species transmission is not the rate-limiting step in pandemic retrovirus emergence and suggest that it may be possible to predict and prevent disease emergence by surveillance of populations exposed to animal reservoirs and interventions to decrease risk factors, such as primate hunting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Naturally acquired simian retrovirus infections in central African hunters
Nathan D. Wolfe,William M. Switzer,Jean K. Carr,Vinod Bhullar,Vedapuri Shanmugam,Ubald Tamoufe,A. Tassy Prosser,Judith N. Torimiro,Anthony Wright,Eitel Mpoudi-Ngole,Francine E. McCutchan,Deborah L. Birx,Thomas M. Folks,Donald S. Burke,Walid Heneine +14 more
TL;DR: The findings show that retroviruses are actively crossing into human populations, and demonstrate that people in central Africa are currently infected with simian foamy virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Subtype on Disease Progression in Persons from Rakai, Uganda, with Incident HIV-1 Infection
Noah Kiwanuka,Oliver Laeyendecker,Oliver Laeyendecker,Merlin L. Robb,Godfrey Kigozi,Miguel A. Arroyo,Francine E. McCutchan,Leigh Anne Eller,Michael A. Eller,Fred Makumbi,Deborah L. Birx,Fred Wabwire-Mangen,David Serwadda,Nelson K. Sewankambo,Thomas C. Quinn,Thomas C. Quinn,Maria J. Wawer,Ronald H. Gray +17 more
TL;DR: HIV disease progression is affected by HIV-1 subtype and this finding may impact decisions on when to initiate antiretroviral therapy and may have implications for future trials of HIV- 1 vaccines aimed at slowing disease progression.
