A new disease…
•
By the end of 1981, there was a cumulative total of 270 reported cases of severe immune deficiency
among gay men, and 121 of those individuals had died.
•
In 1983, Luc Montagnier and Françoise Barré-Sinoussi reported the discovery of a new virus (later called
HIV) that is the cause of AIDS.
•
The first commercial blood test for HIV was licensed in 1985, allowing screening of the U.S. blood supply.
•
In 1987 the first anti-HIV drug (AZT) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
•
The first potent combination of anti-HIV drugs became available in 1995.

Some Significant Historical Discoveries in the field of Retrovirology
1908- Discovery of Retroviruses in chickens (Ellermann
and Bang).
1911- Cell free transmission of a sarcoma in chickens
(Rous) named “Rous sarcoma virus”.

1911- Cell free transmission of a sarcoma in chickens

Many additional retroviruses were subsequently identified in
different animals, including important model systems:
1936- Mammary carcinoma in mice caused by milktransmitted, filterable agent (Bittner) termed “Mouse
Mammary Tumor virus”.
1957- Potent leukemia virus isolated from mice (Gross) named
“Gross murine leukemia virus”.

1957- Visna, a neurological disease in sheep caused by a lentivirus was described, giving
rise to the concept of slow infections by these viruses (Latin: lentus, slow).
1980- 1st human retrovirus “Human T-cell leukemia virus 1” (HTLV-1) isolated.

•Latently infected CD4+ T lymphocytes are rare
in vivo:
•Approximately 1 per 106 total resting CD4+ T
cells
•Probably constitute around 105-106 cells per
patient
Approximately 1 per million resting CD4+ T cells harbor a latent provirus.
Rose Bowl Capacity = 92,542
Approximately 1 per million resting CD4+ T cells harbor a latent provirus.

Like finding one person in 11 football stadiums.
To cure the infection we need to do this with 1,000,000
(one million) cells hidden in this way.

Bugula neritina
Bryostatin 1:
•First isolated from Bugula neritina.
•Modulates PKC activity.
•Shows potential as an anti-cancer
therapeutic
•Has been shown to inhibit tumor invasion,
tumor growth in vitro and in vivo, and
angiogenesis.

•In various phase 1 and phase 2 clinical
trials for treatment of cancer.
•Previously was very difficult to obtain and
hard to modify to alter activity.
Bryostatin 1
-Publication involves 7 bryostatin
analogs (bryologs).
-These can be synthesized for
several thousand dollars/gram
(rather than 1 million).
-Can be modified according to
need.
-Activate latent HIV expression
more efficiently in vitro (cell
lines).

HIV enters cells by binding to CD4 and a “corecepter” (often CCR5).
CCR5 is not functional in approximately 1% of Caucasians, which means they are highly
resistant (but not completely immune) to infection with most strains of HIV.
This mutation is called CCR532.
http://www.thefullwiki.org/Discovery_and_development_of_CCR5_receptor_antagonists
• The “Berlin Patient” was HIV positive and also developed leukemia.
• He underwent aggressive chemotherapy to clear the leukemia, and
in the process almost all the HIV+ cells in his body were also killed.
• This patient then received two bone marrow transplants from a
CCR5-32 individual.
• The new immune cells were not susceptible HIV, and the virus in
currently undetectable more than four years post-transplant.
