Exosomes containing HIV protein Nef reorganize lipid rafts potentiating inflammatory response in bystander cells.

HIV infection has a profound effect on "bystander" cells causing metabolic co-morbidities. This may be mediated by exosomes secreted by HIV-infected cells and containing viral factors. Here we show that exosomes containing HIV-1 protein Nef (exNef) are rapidly taken up by macrophages relea...
