Scientists have identified a molecule known as the T cell receptor cloned T cells then were guided to recognize and kill cells infected with HIV and the use of genetically modified to be incorporated into human stem cells blood.
When cells are placed in human tissue has been implanted in mice, these cells grow in large populations. Finally, it can target a specific population of cells containing HIV proteins.
Researchers developed human stem cells in the same way. The researchers found that they can shape the mature T cells can attack HIV in the tissue where the virus resides.
In a series of tests on mice the peripheral plasma, blood and organs, the researchers found that the number of CD4 helper T cells infected with HIV died. Consequently, the level of HIV in the blood decreases.
"We believe that this study lays the groundwork for potential use in the fight against infections in people infected with HIV. There is hope through research to fight against the HIV virus from the body," said Scott kitchen, aasisten Professor of Medicine at UCLA.
This study gives new hope that penyalit deadly HIV / AIDS had no cure. If the treatment is effective in this way, people living with HIV can be saved.
