The major genetic determinants of HIV-1 control affect HLA class I peptide presentation

Florencia Pereyra, +336 more
- 10 Dec 2010 - 
TL;DR: Differences in binding to viral peptide antigens by HLA may be the major factors underlying genetic differences between HIV controllers and progressors, and genome-wide association results implicate the nature of the HLA–viral peptide interaction as the major factor modulating durable control of HIV infection.
Journal Article

Pharmacogenetics of efavirenz and central nervous system side effects: an Adult AIDS Clinical Trials Group study.

TL;DR: A CYP2B6 allelic variant that is more common in African-Americans than in Europeans-Americans was associated with significantly greater efavirenz plasma exposure during HIV therapy, and inter-individual differences in metabolism may, in part, explain susceptibility to efvirenz central nervous system side effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of early versus delayed initiation of antiretroviral treatment on clinical outcomes of HIV-1 infection: results from the phase 3 HPTN 052 randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: The clinical benefits recorded, combined with the striking reduction in HIV-1 transmission risk previously reported, provides strong support for earlier initiation of antiretroviral treatment.
