Participating in the research program is potentially risky: Participants stop their protective anti-HIV drugs for 12 weeks after gene-editing treatment to see if the virus is gone. Data will be ...

A genetic mutation that helps protect against HIV infection has been traced back to a single individual who lived near the Black Sea between 6,700 and 9,000 years ago. This discovery challenges ...

In a remarkable experiment, a biotechnology company called Excision BioTherapeutics says it added the gene-editing tool to the bodies of three people living with HIV and commanded it to cut ...

Infection with HIV is currently treatable with lifelong antiviral therapy ... CD4 and CD32 found on the cell surface – to direct the delivery of the CRISPR gene editing machinery. Several experts, who ...

£35 means we can empower more people living with HIV to challenge stigma with our information workshops, videos and broadcasts. Gene editing with CRISPR/Cas9 can lead to unwanted ‘cuts’ and changes in ...

a team of researchers has shown that they can remove HIV type 1 (HIV-1) from infected mouse cells using a powerful gene-editing tool. By removing DNA of the deadly virus in rodents, they also ...

Continuing their journey to develop a vaccine for HIV, Oregon Health & Science University researchers have identified a gene that could have prevented their vaccine from working in humans.

The work is, the investigators stated, the first to combine a dual gene editing strategy with antiretroviral drugs to cure animals of HIV-1. “The idea to bring together the excision of HIV-1 DNA ...

The first in-human trial of a CRISPR Cas system delivered by adeno-associated virus 9 gene therapy to treat HIV was able to target only the intended DNA and cleared the blood within 6 months.

A study of more than 3,000 genomes has traced a gene mutation that confers HIV resistance to a person who lived near the ...
