How does HIV remain dormant in cells?
In part two of our episode exploring the latest HIV research, Dr. Mario Stevenson, an internationally recognized molecular virologist, shares why HIV remains dormant in cells, only to reemerge almost immediately when a patient stops taking antiretroviral therapy.
HIV is a formidable pathogen that targets the immune system, particularly CD4 cells, and weakens the body's defense against infections. While CD4 cells have been the primary focus of HIV research, Dr. Stevenson's team is investigating a new victim – myeloid cells – which they believe may be the key to achieving a functional cure.
