Abstract

More than 10% of the world's population is chronically infected with HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV), all of which can cause severe disease and death. These viruses persist in part because continuous antigenic stimulation causes the deterioration of virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) function and survival. Additionally, antiviral CTLs autonomously suppress their responses to limit immunopathology by upregulating inhibitory receptors such as programmed cell death 1 (PD-1). Identification and blockade of the pathways that induce CTL dysfunction may facilitate the clearance of chronic viral infections. We found that the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) receptors EP2 and EP4 were upregulated on virus-specific CTLs during chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection and suppressed CTL survival and function. We show that the combined blockade of PGE2 and PD-1 signaling was therapeutic in terms of improving viral control and augmenting the numbers of functional virus-specific CTLs. Thus, PGE2 inhibition is both an independent candidate therapeutic target and a promising adjunct therapy to PD-1 blockade for the treatment of HIV and other chronic viral infections.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
