Scientists at Queen Mary University of London have discovered that HIV-1 can infect resting T-cells by triggering molecular signals that temporarily unlock the nuclear pore complex. This overturns ...

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is the cause of AIDS, is a master of deception, using just nine genes to hijack the complex cellular machinery of the human body. Yet, even after decades ...

A team of scientists—including Julie Frouard, seen here—developed a novel tool, named HIV-seq, that could uncover new opportunities for treating HIV. SAN FRANCISCO—For people living with human ...

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, ...

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a germ that causes a lifelong infection that slowly weakens the immune system. Though the infection is lifelong, medicines can keep the virus in check and help ...

This article originally appeared on Medical Daily. A cure for HIV has remained elusive, partly due to the virus' ability to hide and lie dormant in "reservoir cells." However, as explained in a recent ...

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London have uncovered a previously unknown mechanism by which HIV-1 can infect resting immune cells. The discovery challenges a decades-old assumption in HIV ...
