The paper shows that in chronic SIV infection, viral RNA is mainly found in B-cell follicles of lymphatic tissues, leading to structural damage and sustained virus-host interactions.

This study investigates immune suppression during torpor in 13-lined ground squirrels using single-cell RNA sequencing and image analysis, identifying metabolic and lineage-specific programs that conserve energy while preserving immune function.

This study examines how antiretroviral therapy (ART) affects macrophage movement in and out of the CNS in SIV-infected macaques, showing ART reduces perivascular macrophage accumulation but not meningeal or choroid plexus macrophages.

This study examines SIV dissemination in rhesus macaques after rectal infection, showing systemic infection occurs without local viral amplification at the entry site.
