A Northwestern Medicine study published in Nature Communications has revealed how HIV can protect infected cells by altering the sugars on their surface, hindering the host immune system and avoiding ...

In individuals who started antiretroviral therapy during acute HIV infection, the proliferative capacity of HIV-specific CD8+ ...

Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and ...

For over three decades, HIV has played an elaborate game of hide-and-seek with researchers, making treating-and possibly even curing-the disease a seemingly insurmountable obstacle to achieve. But ...

At the cellular level, HIV-1 transmission involves a highly coordinated process whereby the virus binds to CD4 receptors and one of two coreceptors—CCR5 (R5) or CXCR4 (X4)—on host immune cells, ...

Using participant skin cells reprogrammed into neurons, Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have identified genetic signatures ...

Peter H Duesberg, a German-born American molecular biologist known both for his early groundbreaking work in cancer research ...

HIV is "like a time bomb," said James Riley, a microbiologist at University of Pennsylvania, US. Even now — decades after the virus was identified — and with antiretroviral drugs allowing us to ...

A man has become the seventh person to be left HIV-free after receiving a stem cell transplant to treat blood cancer. Significantly, he is also the second of the seven who received stem cells that ...
