Evidence for persistence of the SHIV reservoir early after MHC haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Evidence for persistence of the SHIV reservoir early after MHC haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) has led to the cure of HIV in one individual, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, the authors present a model of allo-HCT in SHIV-infected nonhuman primates and show that the SHIV reservoir persists in multiple tissues early after...

Description
Summary:Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) has led to the cure of HIV in one individual, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, the authors present a model of allo-HCT in SHIV-infected nonhuman primates and show that the SHIV reservoir persists in multiple tissues early after transplantation.
