No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this observational study is to characterize which immune system cells hide the latent reservoir of HIV by counting the number of latent HIV in different subsets of CD4 cells. Observations will also be made on other possible mechanisms of HIV persistence by looking at cellular factors such as APOBEC3 and drug transporters. The purpose of this study is to develop new strategies to reduce and possibly eliminate the latent reservoir in HIV infected adults.
