Cure – Describing the Reservoir

Cure — Describing the Reservoir

The main barrier to a cure for HIV is the reservoir of persistent virus that remains dormant in both blood and tissue, beyond the reach of antiretroviral therapy and the immune system. Researchers are working to resolve key questions, such as how to activate HIV-infected reservoir cells, how to make them vulnerable to attack by the immune system, and how to eradicate them altogether.
