Peptide Synthesis> | 527 528 Functional Avidity 529 Functional avidity of HPA-T, HNA-T, and CB-T products were tested using 530 limiting dilutions of individual peptides (NIH AIDS Reagent Program and 531 GenScript, NJ).... Once our T-cell products were confirmed as specific against 532 individual 15mer peptides (AIDS Reagent Program), the individual 9/10mer 533 peptides within the 15mer sequence were ordered (GenScript, NJ) to determine 534 the exact epitope responsible. | Get A Quote |
The Berlin Patient represents the first and only functional HIV cure achieved by hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). In subsequent efforts to replicate this result, HIV rebounded post-HSCT after withdrawal of antiretroviral therapy. Providing HIV-specific immunity through adoptive T cell therapy may prevent HIV rebound post-HSCT by eliminating newly infected cells before they can seed systemic infection. Adoptive T cell therapy has demonstrated success in boosting Epstein-Barr virus and cytomegalovirus-specific immunity post-HSCT, controlling viral reactivation. However, T cell immunotherapies to boost HIV-specific immunity have been limited by single-epitope specificity and minimal persistence ... More
