Abstract: A method of preventing transmission of a retrovirus from a mother to her offspring, by administering to the mother a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR)-associated endonuclease, and the two or more different multiplex gRNAs, wherein each of the at least two gRNAs is complementary to a different target nucleic acid sequence in a long terminal repeat (LTR) of proviral DNA of the virus that is unique from the genome of the host cell, cleaving a double strand of the proviral DNA at a first target protospacer sequence with the CRISPR-associated endonuclease, cleaving a double strand of the proviral DNA at a second target protospacer sequence with the CRISPR-associated endonuclease, excising an entire HIV-I proviral genome, eradicating the HIV-I proviral DNA from the host cell, and preventing transmission of the proviral DNA to the offspring.

Abstract: Compositions are directed to BCL2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) molecules and agents which modulate expression of BAG3 molecules. Pharmaceutical composition for administration to patients, for example, patients with heart failure, comprise one or more BAG3 molecules or agents which modulate expression of BAG3. Methods of treatment and identifying candidate therapeutic agents are also provided.

Abstract: A method of treating a subject having a retroviral infection, by administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a vector encoding a CRISPR-associated endonuclease and at least two guide RNAs, wherein the guide RNAs are complementary to two target sequences spanning from the 5′- to 3′-LTRs of the sequence in the retrovirus, and eradicating the retroviral infection. A method of immunizing a subject at risk of retroviral infection, by administering a prophylactically effective amount of a composition comprising a Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR)-associated endonuclease, and two or more different guide RNAs (gRNAs), wherein each of the at least two gRNAs is complementary to a different target nucleic acid sequence in a long terminal repeat (LTR) of proviral DNA of a retrovirus to the subject, and preventing retroviral infection in the subject.

Abstract: Compositions that specifically cleave target sequences in Hepadnaviridae, for example Hepatitis B virus (HBV) include nucleic acids encoding a Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR) associated endonuclease and a guide RNA sequence complementary to a target sequence in HBV. These compositions are administered to a subject for eradicating an infection, latent or otherwise, or at risk for contracting HBV infection.

Abstract: Provided is a method of detecting mild neurocognitive disturbance (MNCD) or HIV associated dementia (HAD) in a patient comprising detecting the level of acetyl spermine and/or acetyl spermidine from a cerebrospinal fluid test sample of the patient; and comparing the level of acetyl spermine and/or acetyl spermidine in the test sample to the level of the acetyl spermine and/or acetyl spermidine in a cerebrospinal fluid control sample or to a control value for lack of neurocognitive impairment, MNCD or HAD; wherein an elevated level of acetyl spermine and/or acetyl spermidine in the test sample as compared to the level in the control sample or a control value for lack of neurocognitive impairment, or a level of acetyl spermine and/or acetyl spermidine that is similar to that of a control value for MNCD or HAD, indicates that the patient suffers from MNCD or HAD. Also provided are methods for measuring the progression of an HIV-1-associated neurocognitive disorder, as well as methods for staging such a disorder.
