Ronald Desrosiers reviews the properties that allow the virus to evade ongoing immune
responses and that present formidable obstacles to those seeking long-term control of HIV.
Abstract
A most remarkable feature of HIV is its ability to replicate continuously and unrelentingly despite apparently strong antibody and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses. Here, Ronald Desrosiers reviews the properties that allow the virus to evade ongoing immune responses and that present formidable obstacles to those seeking long-term control of HIV.
