Cohen, PhD, made a significant discovery on how HIV escapes the body鈥檚 antiviral responses. The team uncovered how an HIV viral protein known as Vpu tricks the immune system by using its own regulatory process to evade the host鈥檚 first line of defence. This breakthrough was published yesterday in the scientific journal PLoS Pathogens and will be presented at the upcoming IAS 2015 conference in Vancouver. The findings pave the way for future HIV prevention or cure strategies.</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/hiv.jpg?itok=UE3Sw6L5" width="160" height="225" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">15 </span><span class="month">July </span><span class="year">2015</span></div></div></div></div></div> Wed, 15 Jul 2015 20:19:46 +0000 webfull 111158 at /channels
