For the first application of the new vector five subjects with chronic HIV infection who had failed to respond to at least two antiretroviral regimens were given a single infusion of their own ...

Scientists have developed a prototype HIV vaccine vector using a similar approach to that used for a vaccination for Ebola and Malaria. A team of scientists at Royal Holloway, led by Professor ...

The lentiviral vector, modified from HIV-1, was known to infect non-dividing cells (3). A lentiviral vector system was then developed in an attempt to find a viral vector system that could achieve ...

Human Immunodeficiency VirusImage: NIAIDThe Merck-funded STEP study, which used an adenoviral vector to deliver an HIV vaccine candidate, was halted in 2007 after the data suggested the vaccine ...

Did patients in a failed HIV vaccine trial halted in 2007 become more susceptible to the virus due to the adenoviral vector used to deliver the experimental vaccine? Researchers have speculated this ...

The vector used in the therapy was an engineered copy of the human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV, but the patients “can’t get infected with HIV,” said Dr. Morton Cowan, a pediatrician at ...

We now demonstrate that HIV vector encoding angiostatin (HIV-angiostatin) can inhibit retinal neovascularization in a mouse model of proliferative retinopathy. Intravitreal injections of HIV ...

Gilead Sciences has bolstered its position as a leader in the HIV research space by purchasing an investigational HIV vaccine ...

The strategy of minimizing the vector size was successful, enhancing its delivery to HIV-infected cells. Moreover, they were able to target "hidden" HIV reservoir cells by focusing on specific ...

The new administration's freeze on foreign aid (affecting America's sweeping anti-HIV initiative PEPFAR) has raised concerns about the dispersal of the pills taken daily by those who are HIV positive.
