Mice chronically infected with chimeric HIV resist peripheral and brain superinfection: a model of protective immunity to HIV.
Infection by some viruses induces immunity to reinfection, providing a means to identify protective epitopes. To investigate resistance to reinfection in an animal model of HIV disease and its control, we employed infection of mice with chimeric HIV, EcoHIV. When immunocompetent mice were infected b...
