Assessment of type 1 and type 2 cytokines in HIV type 1-infected individuals: impact of highly active antiretroviral therapy.

abstract：:Despite the considerable progress that has been made in identifying cellular factors and pathways that contribute to establishment and maintenance of the latent HIV reservoir, it remains the major obstacle to eradicating this virus. Most recently, noncoding genes have been implicated in regulation of HIV expression. I...
