A Quantitative Analysis of Dynamic Mechanisms Regulating HIV Latency and Activation [PDF]

Prog. Biochem. Biophys. 2023,50(2):385-396, 2022
Objective: The reservoir of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) latently infected cells is the major obstacle for eradication of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Due to the noisy environment and multiple influencing factors in the organism, current dynamical models cannot reach a common understanding of the molecular mechanism of HIV latency ...
