Antenatal HIV-1 RNA load and timing of mother to child transmission; a nested case-control study in a resource poor setting.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Human adenoviruses (Ads) have substantial potential for clinical applications in cancer patients. Conditionally replicating adenoviruses (CRAds) include oncolytic adenoviruses in which expression of the immediate early viral transactivator protein E1A is controlled by a cancer cell-selective promoter. To enh...
