Among new therapeutic strategies to fight the infection, gene therapy targeting CCR5 will be an asset. Indeed, the first patient to be cured from the infection received hematopoietic progenitors deprived of CCR5. This finding has ignited a flurry of research on genetic means to decrease CCR5 from the cell surface.During my PhD, I developed a gene therapy strategy based on entry inhibition of HIV in CD4 T cells. Our therapeutic genes are a membrane fusion inhibitor (the C46 peptide) and a CCR5 expression inhibitor, based on a super-agonist ligand. The experience of the team in humanized mice models allowed the validation of the strategy in vivo in a model of gene-modified T cell transfer. I first showed that the combination of the transgenes...
