Researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill have decoded the HIV genome for the first time, and the results could lead to advances in the fight against AIDS say the editors of the journal Nature. Led by UNC-CH ...

In order for HIV to replicate, the viral genome must enter into the cell nucleus and integrate into the host cell chromosome. Previous work suggests that the entry proceeds through nuclear pore ...

In a person living with HIV, proviruses—strands of HIV DNA—are typically integrated into the T cell genome and become a ...

Around one million individuals worldwide become infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, each year. To replicate and spread the infection, the virus must smuggle its genetic material into the ...

"We searched for human genetic variation that associates with spontaneous control of HIV and identified a novel region in the genome that is only variable in populations of African ancestries," says ...

To develop treatments that may one day entirely rid the body of HIV infection, scientists have long sought to identify all of the places that the virus can hide its genetic code. Now, in a study using ...

Researchers at the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF) at Heidelberg University Hospital have decoded a previously unknown mechanism by which HIV-1 selects its integration targets in the human ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins have found that chemotherapy drugs paclitaxel and carboplatin, used to treat cancer patients, ...

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- World AIDS Day 2025 — British Columbia has made remarkable progress in reducing HIV transmission and researchers now believe the province ...

Advancements in HIV/AIDS research, drug development and clinical practice since the 1980s have made it possible for people ...
