Short Communication: Characterization of a New HIV-1 Group N Isolate Originating from a Cameroonian Patient.

abstract：:We investigated a strategy for gene therapy, intracellular expression of anti-HIV-1 Rev single-chain variable fragments (SFvs), in promonocytic (U1) and T (ACH-2) cell lines latently infected with HIV-1. The cellular and molecular mechanisms leading to activation of latent integrated HIV-1 provirus in U1 and ACH-2 cel...
