• Over 50 million HIV/AIDS cases have occurred worldwide
• Over 40 million people are currently living with HIV/AIDS
• 95% of all cases are in developing countries
• Highest prevalence in Africa
• In some African countries 30% of adult population is infected with HIV and the average life span has declined by ~ 20 years
• It is currently estimated that there are over 11 million orphans worldwide due to the HIV/AIDS epidemic
• In the US over 700,000 people have been infected and over 400,000 people are currently infected.

The “dogma” in the AIDS field is that CD4 cells are lost
However CD8 T cells can also be depleted.

The Anti-Viral immune response/Escape By Virus
Antibodies to viral proteins are made They are poorly neutralizing Viral env protein mutates, and escapes from antibody responses Relevant epitopes are physically hidden from immune response buried by other regions of env blocked by glycosylationCD4 cells respond, but CD4 numbers are lowCD8 cells are present Up to 50% can be virus-specific as assessed by tetramer binding Escape mutants have been demonstrated Nef causes down-regulation of MHC I A and B (not C) This results in decreased CD8-mediated killing CD8 cells can be infected (CD4-mediated)APC function is perturbed The physical demand to replace lost T cells may alter BM functionHIV infection perturbs myeloid and erythroid hematopoiesis

Is There Hope For A Vaccine?
Attenuated viruses can elicit protective immunity
However, these can cause disease in immunocompromisedIndividuals
Phase III trials of recombinant env have failed
DNA vaccines or viral vectors hold much promise
Phase III trials of viral vector plus recombinant env have Shown a small amount of efficacy.
A successful vaccine will most likely need to generate: Strong T cell-mediated responses IgA responses to protect mucosal surfaces

Vaccines may be decades away
Can we target viral reservoirs to deplete virus?
![Page 51: • Over 50 million HIV/AIDS cases have occurred worldwide](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56813fe2550346895daacb59/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Targeting The Latent Reservoir
![Page 52: • Over 50 million HIV/AIDS cases have occurred worldwide](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56813fe2550346895daacb59/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Low-level activation signals should stimulate expression of latent virus, without compromizing the function of other cells
This might allow the immune system to kill the infected cell
A specific anti-viral approach (immunotoxin) may also killcells now producing virus, so that the latently infected cellis eliminated.
An immunotoxin is an antibody linked to a toxic molecule
The antibody binds to virus proteins on the cell, causing the toxin To kill the cell before new virus is made.
The Rationale
![Page 53: • Over 50 million HIV/AIDS cases have occurred worldwide](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56813fe2550346895daacb59/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Prostratin or IL-7
![Page 54: • Over 50 million HIV/AIDS cases have occurred worldwide](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56813fe2550346895daacb59/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Minimal activation plus immunoxin results in:
1. Elimination of 80% of the latent virus2. No effect on normal, uninfected cells

We have developed improved activators that inducevirus to express from latently infected cells
In normal mice, we can activate 50% or more of splenocyteswith a single dose of these activators
Studies are ongoing to test these systems, coupled with immunotoxins or anti-HIV CTL, in humanized mice to determine if we can eliminate the latent reservoir in vivo
If successful, we may have a new form of therapy which could be used to provide a “functional cure” for HIV disease.
What is ongoing now?
