Inhibition of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 through autophagy

As an obligatory intracellular pathogen, human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV) is dependent upon its ability to exploit host cell machinery for replication and dissemination, and to circumvent cellular processes that prevent its growth. One such intracellular process is autophagy, a component of the host defense against HIV with roles in innate immune signaling, adaptive immunity and intracellular degradation...
