Overcoming Obstacles to an HIV-1 Cure: Advances in Genome Editing, Immune System Reprogramming, and Viral Reservoir Elimination
Abstract: Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) continues to represent a major global health challenge despite the remarkable success of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Although ART effectively suppresses viral replication and prolongs survival, it cannot eradicate the virus due to the persistence of long-lived latent reservoirs. In recent years, innovative therapeutic strategies have been explored with the aim of achieving either a functional remission or complete viral elimination. Advances in genome-editing technologies, particularly …
