HIV-1 gp41 envelope IgA is frequently elicited after transmission but has an initial short response half-life

TL;DR: HIV-1 transmission frequently elicits mucosal HIV-1 envelope-specific IgA responses targeted to gp41 that have a short half-life, and B-cell-activating factor belonging to the TNF family was elevated immediately preceding the appearance of gp41 Abs, likely contributing to an initial T-independent Ab response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Typing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Causing Repeated Infections: Evolution of Porin during Passage within a Community

Promote HIV Chemoprophylaxis Research, Don't Prevent It

TL;DR: The authors of this Policy Forum recommend involvement of community leaders and local investigators early in the development of research projects, open communication of accurate information about research, and active development of prevention and treatment infrastructure, which all serve to build the community trust that is the basis for research into finding ways to stop the spread of HIV/AIDS.
