Abstract:
:Persistence of the latent reservoir remains a challenge to curing HIV infection. Using shRNA screening, new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying latency regulation indicate that the estrogen receptor is a potent repressor of proviral reactivation and may serve as a promising therapeutic target in combination with other latency-reversing agents.

评论,杂志文章abstract::One strategy for neutralizing retroviral infectivity is to induce the incorporation of lethal fusion proteins, such as capsid protein-nuclease fusions, into the virion during the normal viral assembly process. Genes encoding such antiviral fusion proteins must be nontoxic to the host, lethal to the virus, and must be ...
