DescriptionBudding HIV virions (49435466353).jpg |
In a range of experiments, scientists have reactivated resting immune cells that were latently infected with HIV or its monkey relative, SIV, in cells in the bloodstream and a variety of tissues in animals. As a result, the cells started making copies of the viruses, which could potentially be neutralized by anti-HIV drugs and the immune system. This advance, published in January of 2020 in two papers in the journal Nature, marks progress toward a widely accessible cure for HIV.
