No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Various diagnostic methods are available for CMV infection. But none of them could be a standard and highly valuable. Our first goal is to setup a series of molecular diagnostic tools for HIV-1 infected person. By using these tools, physicians can easily select cases with CMV disease or immune restoration inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) to enroll this study. Furthermore, we will seek for a predict marker for CMV reactivation, CMV disease and IRIS. Finally, our research will focus on the mechanism of the IE gene alternative splicing between lytic and latent stage.
