What HIV Needs: Identification of Human Factors May Yield Novel

To develop more effective therapies for HIV infection and AIDS we must identify and characterize the cellular factors that participate in early steps of HIV-1 replication and prevent the virus from becoming established."

Although more than two dozen drugs are available for the treatment of HIV infection, there is a growing need for new antiviral therapies. Recent studies indicate that HIV remains "hidden" in a latent form, even after long-term suppression with highly active antiretroviral therapy.

In the study, the team of researchers used short-interfering RNA (siRNA) which, when introduced into a cell, silences cellular gene expression, one gene at a time.

New Studies Highlight Benefits of Coblation-Assisted Procedures

Ruiz, III, MD, investigator of the study and assistant professor at the University of Miami department of otolaryngology. "Since adopting Coblation, reduced blood loss and improved surgical visualization have reduced our concern for complications, including orbital and intracranial injuries."

The study concluded that Coblation represents a viable alternative to microdebridement for patients with nasal polyps undergoing ESS as it resulted in better visualization as a result of better homeostasis. The study was a retrospective analysis of 25 patients with nasal polyposis undergoing ESS and was conducted by investigators Jean Anderson Eloy, MD, Thomas J. more
