For years, people were wondering when can they stop
wearing condoms while having s*x with their partners,
well it looks like the time is right around the corner.
It seems the long awaited cure for human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) – a lentivirus that causes
HIV infection and over time acquired immunodeficiency
syndrome, AIDS, has been invented by scientists.
Below is how the story was written...
For years, people were wondering WHEN
CAN THEY REMOVE THEIR CONDOMS . . .
well it looks like it’s right around the
corner.
Scientists have for the FIRST TIME EVER
– proved that they can CURE HIV.
Yesterday scientists CONFIRMED that they
were able to edit out HIV-1 DNA from the
genome of human immune cells,
preventing virus replication and reinfection
of the cleared cells.
In layman’s language, they used GENE
THERAPY to cure HIV in HUMAN cells.
Dr. Kamel Khalili, director of the
Comprehensive NeuroAIDS Center at
Temple University claims that they are
ready to put his new gene therapy into a
new drug that will cure HIV in patients
even after they stop taking the drugs.
“The findings are important on multiple levels. They demonstrate the effectiveness of our gene editing system
in eliminating HIV from the DNA of CD4 T-cells and, by introducing mutations into the viral genome, permanently
inactivating its replication. Further, they show that the system can protect cells from reinfection and that the
technology is safe for the cells, with no toxic effects,”
Khalili said in a press release.
