Independent HIV replication in paired CSF and blood viral isolates during antiretroviral therapy
13 Feb 2001
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The goal of highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients is to reduce plasma viral load (VL) below quantifiable levels. Mutations associated with drug resistance within the HIV-1 genome can limit therapeutic success. Low VL implicates a low risk of emergence of resistant mutants. Whether there is divergent development of HIV strains in different biologic compartments is not...
