Molecular Biology and Diversification of Human Retroviruses
Studies of retroviruses have led to many extraordinary discoveries that have advanced our understanding of not only human diseases, but also molecular biology as a whole. The most recognizable human retrovirus, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1),

PPARγ and LXR Signaling Inhibit Dendritic Cell-Mediated HIV-1 Capture and trans-Infection [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) contribute to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmission and dissemination by capturing and transporting infectious virus from the mucosa to draining lymph nodes, and transferring these virus particles to CD4+ T cells ...

Human immunodeficiency virus and the liver: The impact of coinfection with hepatotropic viruses
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) predisposes for liver damage during coinfection with hepatitis E virus (HEV) and increases the replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV). HIV-hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfections are common. In Mexico, hepatotropic viruses

Amplification of HIV-1 Infectious Virus in BL3 Lab
This method is used for making high titer human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) virus stock for subsequent infection assays. The amplification of T-tropic HIV-1 virus (IIIB strain) uses the CD4+ T cell line H9.
