Long‐term survival and virus production in human primary macrophages infected by human immunodeficiency virus
10 Oct 2002
Abstract excerpt
The role of macrophages in the pathogenesis and progression of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related infection is substantiated by in vitro and in vivo evidence. The unique ability to survive HIV infection and produce viral particles for long periods is postulated. Detailed studies of this phenomenon are lacking. The dynamics of HIV-1 replication and cumulative virus production was studied in long-term...
