Abstract: A method for the evaluation of the efficacy of a drug aiming to eradicate a cellular reservoir of mammalian cells infected with a mammalian immunodeficiency virus, the method including: a) quantifying, the presence of lymphocyte cells expressing a CD32 differentiation marker on their surface; and b) concluding that the drug is efficient to eradicate the cellular reservoir of mammalian cells infected with the mammalian immunodeficiency virus when lymphocyte cells expressing a CD32a differentiation marker are absent.

Abstract: A method for the evaluation of the efficacy of a drug aiming to eradicate a cellular reservoir of mammalian cells infected with a mammalian immunodeficiency virus, the method including: a) quantifying, the presence of lymphocyte cells expressing a CD89 differentiation marker on their surface; and b) concluding that the drug is efficient to eradicate the cellular reservoir of mammalian cells infected with the mammalian immunodeficiency virus when lymphocyte cells expressing a CD89 differentiation marker are absent.

Abstract: The use of differentiation marker CD32 for the detection of cellular reservoirs of a mammalian immunodeficiency virus. Also the use of the differentiation marker CD32 for making a prognosis, diagnosing a remission, and evaluating the efficacy of treatment of the mammalian immunodeficiency. A multi-specific antibody that recognizes both at least one epitope of CD32 and at least one characteristic of the lymphocyte cells, a composition including the antibody, and the use of the antibody in treatment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a nucleic acid molecule encoding a first reporter gene, bordered by at least one first pair and one second pair of sequences targeting a site-specific recombinase in order to detect cells of a mammal infected with a virus responsible for an immunodeficiency.

Abstract: The use of differentiation marker CD89 for the detection of cellular reservoirs of a mammalian immunodeficiency virus. Also the use of the differentiation marker CD89 for making a prognosis, diagnosing a remission, and evaluating the efficacy of treatment of the mammalian immunodeficiency. A multi-specific antibody that recognizes both at least one epitope of CD89 and at least one characteristic of the lymphocyte cells, a composition including the antibody, and the use of the antibody for treatment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to at least one nucleic acid (i) comprising or consisting of or (ii) encoding a nucleic acid comprising or consisting of, a sequence selected from the group consisting of: 1) SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO: 3, and SEQ ID NO: 4, and 2) a sequence derived from SEQ ID NO: 1 to 4 by substitution deletion or insertion of at least one nucleotide, provided that a nucleic acid consisting of the sequence derived from SEQ ID NO: 1 to 4 is liable to induce HIV-1 expression in latent HIV-1-infected cells, for use as a medicament, in particular for treating retrovirus infections.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for screening a compound capable of inhibiting the Notch1 transcriptional activity. The present invention also relates to compounds useful in the prevention or treatment of cell proliferative diseases and disorders associated with overexpression and/or activation of Notch1.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an in vitro method of screening for candidate compounds capable of being used for the preventative and/or curative treatment of a disease caused by a retrovirus in which the candidate compound which modulates the expression and/or the activity of the SAMHD1 protein is identified as a candidate compound capable of being used for the preventative and/or curative treatment of a disease caused by a retrovirus. The invention also relates to a vaccine composition and an immunogenic composition, comprising i) an inhibitor of the expression and/or of the activity of the SAMHD1 protein and ii) at least one antigen of a retrovirus.

Abstract: A method for inducing activity of a specific RNAi into eukaryote cells in which the TAT protein and a nucleic acid coding for a nucleotide sequence comprising the sense and antisense sequences of an RNAi of interest are introduced, which sense and antisense sequences are separated by a separating nucleotide sequence coding for a sequence comprising at least the minimal TAR sequence recognized by the TAT protein, which transcribed separating sequence and the TAT protein form a complex that inhibits the activity of the RNAi of interest, and the activity of the RNAi is induced by withdrawing the TAT protein.
