TLDR
This review summarizes recent advances in understanding the antiviral and replicative roles of autophagy during HIV infection andsecting the molecular mechanisms by which HIV utilizes autophagic may lead to the identification of novel drug candidates to treat and potentially eradicate HIV infection.

Identification of Host Proteins Required for HIV Infection Through a Functional Genomic Screen

Joseph A. Church
- 01 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: The extraordinary dependence of HIV on human host proteins for efficient transmission and replication provides many new potential targets for antiretroviral therapy.

TFEB and TFE3: Linking Lysosomes to Cellular Adaptation to Stress*

TL;DR: The participation of the transcription factors TFEB and TFE3 in the regulation of lysosomal function and biogenesis, as well as the role of the lysOSomal pathway in cellular adaptation to a variety of stress conditions, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Nef Inhibits Autophagy through Transcription Factor EB Sequestration

TL;DR: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of a virus modulating TFEB localization and helps to explain how HIV modulates autophagy to promote its own replication and cell survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emerging roles for TFEB in the immune response and inflammation.

TL;DR: The current state of knowledge linking TFEB and TFE3 to the processes of autophagy and inflammation is reviewed and several conditions, which are linked by these factors, are highlighted.

Mitophagy in TGEV infection counteracts oxidative stress and apoptosis

TL;DR: It is reported that TGEV induces mitophagy to suppress oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by viral infection in porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2).

Species-Specific Recognition of Single-Stranded RNA via Toll-like Receptor 7 and 8

TL;DR: It is shown that guanosine (G)- and uridine (U)-rich ssRNA oligonucleotides derived from human immunodeficiency virus–1 (HIV-1) stimulate dendritic cells and macrophages to secrete interferon-α and proinflammatory, as well as regulatory, cytokines, and these data suggest that ssRNA represents a physiological ligand for TLR7 and TLR8.

Identification of Host Proteins Required for HIV Infection Through a Functional Genomic Screen

TL;DR: This article performed a large-scale small interfering RNA screen to identify host factors required by HIV-1 and identified more than 250 HIV-dependency factors (HDFs), which participate in a broad array of cellular functions and implicate new pathways in the viral life cycle.

Identification of host proteins required for HIV infection through a functional genomic screen

TL;DR: A large-scale small interfering RNA screen was performed to identify host factors required by HIV-1 and more than 250 HIV-dependency factors (HDFs) were identified, suggesting that viruses evolve in host cells that optimally perform the functions required for their life cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel targets for Huntington's disease in an mTOR-independent autophagy pathway

TL;DR: A cyclical mTOR-independent pathway regulating autophagy is revealed, in which cAMP regulates IP3 levels, influencing calpain activity, which completes the cycle by cleaving and activating G(s)alpha, which regulates cAMP levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vitamin D3 induces autophagy in human monocytes/macrophages via cathelicidin.

TL;DR: It is shown that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D3), the active form of vitamin D, induced autophagy in human monocytes via cathelicidin, which activated transcription of the autophophagy-related genes Beclin-1 and Atg5.
