1 Mar 2003
Abstract excerpt
Gonorrhoea enhances the transmission of HIV through increased viral shedding and the increased probability of seroconversion among previously HIV-negative individuals. However, the mechanism(s) underlying these influences remain poorly understood. We demonstrated that exposure toNeisseria gonorrhoeaeinduces the nuclear factor kappa B-dependent transcription from the HIV-1 long terminal repeat in derivatives of...
