Blockade of TGF-β signaling reactivates HIV-1/SIV reservoirs and immune responses in vivo

TGF-β plays a critical role in maintaining immune cells in a resting state by inhibiting cell activation and proliferation. Resting HIV-1 target cells represent the main cellular reservoir after long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART). We hypothesized that releasing cells from TGF-β–driven signaling...
