Two steps away from scientists on the "treatment of AIDS"

According to the Daily Mail newspaper, the problem of AIDS is the ability of the virus to hide and, therefore, not to be detected and then uncontrolled, which means that the patient can never be cured.

But researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago have made HIV concealed in visible cells for the immune system, claiming that they were about to find a cure.

Researchers say targeting the TAT gene in the brain can drive the virus out of hiding, making it vulnerable to the immune system and the drugs currently used to treat the disease, which could help control it.

The drugs currently used to treat the disease are not the cause of the problem, which the new study has attempted to address by focusing efforts on the direction of the gene, according to the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) recently.

Victims are now being treated with "antiretroviral drugs", which slow the progression of the disease by reducing the risk of the virus lining the blood of the carrier, called "viral pregnancy".

According to the researchers, activation of the TAT gene "would cause sufficient production of infected cells, then discriminate and destroy them by the immune system."

"During an HIV infection, HIV DNA enters the nucleus of its human host cell and integrates into its own genome, thus helping the TAT gene to capture the cellular mechanism to produce, "said Ji Liang, a professor of bioengineering. New copies of the virus eventually explode in the cell to infect nearby cells with an infection. "

"The infected cells are naturally infected despite the infection by the virus, as long as the TAT gene is not activated to produce new copies.The problem is that the mechanism of this gene is random.It can be active or inactive, and switching from inactive to active It will therefore be difficult to help the immune system with drugs to resist infected cells by the time it will occur. "

"The result of the research is that targeting the launch platform of the virus, TAT, with drugs that activate it, will produce the infected cells adequately, and then destroy them with the immune system."
