        Emergence of a Complex Relationship between HIV-1 and the microRNA Pathway

        Recent experimental evidences support the existence of an increasingly complex and multifaceted interaction between viruses and the microRNA-guided RNA silencing machinery of human cells. The discovery of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which are designed to mediate cleavage of specific messenger RNAs (mRNAs), prompted virologists to establish therapeutic strategies based on siRNAs with the aim to suppress replication of several viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). It has been appreciated only recently that viral RNAs can also be processed endogenously by the microRNA-generating enzyme Dicer or recognized by cellular miRNAs, in processes that could be viewed as an adapted antiviral defense mechanism. Known to repress mRNA translation through recognition of specific binding sites usually located in their 3′ untranslated region, miRNAs of host or viral origin may exert regulatory effects towards host and/or viral genes and influence viral replication and/or the host response to viral infection. This article summarizes our current state of knowledge on the relationship between HIV-1 and miRNA-guided RNA silencing, and discusses the different aspects of their interaction.
