Retinoblastoma protein induction by HIV viremia or CCR5 in monocytes exposed to HIV-1 mediates protection from activation-induced apoptosis: ex vivo and in vitro study
Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 08/10/2012
Gekonge B et al. – The data identify Rb1 induction in chronic asymptomatic HIV–1 infection as a mediator of apoptosis resistance in monocytes in association with protective autophagy and contributing to monocyte survival during immune activation and/or HIV–1 viremia.
