For people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), life-saving antiretroviral therapy keeps their HIV-infected immune cells from ...

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, ...

Single-pill treatment proves as effective at suppressing virus as multi-pill therapy, while long-acting preventive injections are increasingly available ...

Scientists at Gladstone Institutes, in collaboration with a team at the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center, have developed a novel tool—named HIV-seq—for profiling the features of rare ...
