TLDR
In this article, the ability of the histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC) inhibitor valproic acid to deplete persistent, latent infection in resting CD4+ T cells was evaluated.

The many roles of histone deacetylases in development and physiology: Implications for disease and therapy

TL;DR: In this article, the expression of many HDAC isoforms in eukaryotic cells raises questions about their possible specificity or redundancy, and whether they control global or specific programs of gene expression.

Replication-Competent Noninduced Proviruses in the Latent Reservoir Increase Barrier to HIV-1 Cure

TL;DR: The identification of replication-competent noninduced proviruses indicates that the size of the latent reservoir-and, hence, the barrier to cure-may be up to 60-fold greater than previously estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Administration of vorinostat disrupts HIV-1 latency in patients on antiretroviral therapy

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a molecular mechanism known to enforce HIV latency can be therapeutically targeted in humans, provides proof-of-concept for histone deacetylase inhibitors as a therapeutic class, and defines a precise approach to test novel strategies to attack and eradicate latent HIV infection directly.

Stimulation of HIV-1-Specific Cytolytic T Lymphocytes Facilitates Elimination of Latent Viral Reservoir after Virus Reactivation

TL;DR: It is shown that after reversal of latency in an in vitro model, infected resting CD4(+) T cells survived despite viral cytopathic effects, even in the presence of autologous cytolytic T lymphocytes from most patients on HAART, demonstrating that stimulating HIV-1-specific CTLs prior to reactivating latent HIV- 1 may be essential for successful eradication efforts.

Generalized Linear Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods, illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables), and gamma (variance components).

Generalized linear models. 2nd ed.

TL;DR: A class of statistical models that generalizes classical linear models-extending them to include many other models useful in statistical analysis, of particular interest for statisticians in medicine, biology, agriculture, social science, and engineering.

Identification of a Reservoir for HIV-1 in Patients on Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy

TL;DR: In a study of 22 patients successfully treated with HAART for up to 30 months, replication-competent virus was routinely recovered from resting CD4+ T lymphocytes, and generally did not show mutations associated with resistance to the relevant antiretroviral drugs.
