The effect of Ingenol-B on the suppressive capacity of elite suppressor HIV-specific CD8+ T cells.

BACKGROUND:Some latency-reversing agents (LRAs) inhibit HIV-specific CD8+ T cell responses. In a prior study of protein kinase C (PKC) agonists, we found that bryostatin-1 inhibited elite controller/suppressor (ES) CD8+ T cell suppressive activity whereas prostratin had no effect. Ingenol-B is anoth...
