Understanding HIV latency at the molecular level is crucial for efforts to eliminate the viral scourge that causes AIDS. Latent infected cell reservoirs—where the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) ...
Dr. Michael Emerman, a professor in the Human Biology and Basic Sciences Divisions of Fred Hutch, has been hunting the secrets of HIV replication for decades. “There are nearly 40 million people ...
University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have uncovered a key reason why HIV remains so difficult to cure: Their research shows that small changes in the virus affect how quickly or slowly ...
The Wistar Institute and the University of Buea in Cameroon has uncovered the mechanisms for a medicinal plant with anti-HIV potential in Croton oligandrus Pierre & Hutch, a species of African tree ...
An immune response that likely evolved to help fight infections appears to be the mechanism that drives human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) into a latent state, lurking in cells only to erupt anew, ...
More than 20 years after the discovery of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART), complete eradication of HIV infection has not yet been achieved. While ART controls viral replication, it is not a ...
As a part of its life cycle, human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) inserts a copy of its DNA into human immune cells. Some of these newly infected immune cells can then transition into a dormant, ...
A research team led by Professor Chu Hin (first right) and Professor Chen Zhiwei (first left) has discovered that inhibiting the BRD9 protein can effectively reactivate latent HIV-1. When used in ...
