Characterization of the Role of Host Cellular Factor Histone Deacetylase 10 during HIV-1 Replication

To date, a series of histone deacetylases have been documented to restrict HIV-1 replication at different steps. In this study, we identified histone deacetylase 10 (HDAC10) as an inhibitory factor against HIV-1 replication. Our results showed that endogenous HDAC10 is downregulated at the transcriptional level during HIV-1 replication. By knocking down HDAC10 in CD4+ T cells with specific shRNAs, we observed that the downregulation of HDAC10...
