A federal grant for HIV research is part of $15.7 million the National Institutes for Health awarded to the Wertheim UF Scripps Institute in Jupiter.

Recently, biology professor Anding Shen landed a $300, 000 grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study the role of endothelial cells in HIV infection—a project that will occupy her for ...

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 ...

We might be a step closer to curing HIV, as researchers have developed a way to knock out a version of the virus lurking in the body. Using something called an HIV-like particle (HLP)—which are dead ...

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 ...

Researchers contribute to a better understanding of HIV-1 latency: implications for the development of new therapeutic strategies. The contribution of antiretroviral drugs to the treatment of HIV-1 ...

However, activating NF-kB also has the affect of loosening chromatin, which HIV recruits in another mechanism of latency. Therefore, upregulating the viral activator would be "good for both of these ...
