Aim: To identify potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of HIV-1 progression.
Methods: 19 subjects, diagnosed with HIV-1 infection in the follow-up, prospective, clinical cohort more than 6000 subjects from 2006, were incorporated into our study. The subjects included ten non-progressors and nine rapid progressors. The plasmas of subjects before HIV-1 seroconversion and after seroconversion were collected and analyzed with nontargeted metabolomics.
Results: 20:0-Glc-Campesterol and A-norgorgostanol could significantly distinguished after HIV-1 seroconversion from before HIV-1 seroconversion. PG(O-18:0/18:0) could totally distinguish the plasma of rapid progressor before seroconversion from that of nonprogressor before seroconversion.
Conclusion: 20:0-Glc-Campesterol, A-norgorgostanol and PG(O-18:0/18:0) could be potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of HIV-1 progression.

Background: We report findings from an experimental medicine study of rationally designed prefusion stabilised native-like HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env) immunogens, representative of global circulating strains, delivered by sequential intramuscular injection.
Methods: Healthy adult volunteers were enrolled into one of five groups (A to E) each receiving a different schedule of one of two consensus Env immunogens (ConM SOSIP, ConS UFO, either unmodified or stabilised by chemical cross-linking, followed by a boost with two mosaic Env immunogens (Mos3.1 and Mos3.

Introduction: A novel recombinant antigen-based capture enzyme immunoassay (RAg-CEIA) was optimized and used to determine technical parameters for estimating human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) incidence in China.
Methods: We employed orthogonal experimental design to optimize RAg-CEIA by adjusting raw material dilution ratios. The assay was used to measure normalized optical density (ODn) values in 171 longitudinal plasma specimens from 51 HIV-1 seroconverting individuals, plotted against estimated days post-seroconversion.

HIV-1 infection leads to chronic disease requiring life-long treatment and therefore alternative therapeutics, a cure and/or a protective vaccine are needed. Antibody-mediated effector functions could have a role in the fight against HIV-1. However, the properties underlying the potential beneficial effects of antibodies during HIV-1 infection are poorly understood.

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection screening and diagnosis are critical to control the HIV epidemic. Testing for anti-HIV antibodies (Ab) and antigens (Ag) in blood samples is the first step to screen people who have been potentially exposed to the virus. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of the MAGLUMI HIV Ab/Ag Combi for detection of HIV antibodies and antigens.
