New lead against HIV

HIV first emerged in the 80's as a deadly disease which now has been made into a much more manageable disease, however like most diseases it is starting to form resistance to certain drugs. If drug resistance develops then researchers need to find new drugs or treatment methods for people with this disease which can be very costly. According to scientists of the American Chemical Society there might be a new method to having affordable drugs that will not allow this disease to form a resistance against them. 
In previous studies a drug company was able to develop a compound to inhibit HIV's interaction with the protein CCR5, but they didn't know that the virus could also attack the protein CXCR4. This protein is linked to the body's inflammatory responses so it is hard to develop a drug for this without the person having major side effects. Dennis Liotta wanted to do something about this, so his team and him tried coming up with a drug that would inhibit both these proteins with less side effects. Anthony Prosser, a member of Liotta's team, came up with an inexpensive method to test multiple drugs to do just this. The most effective drugs were found to not only be able to inhibit both these proteins but also the HIV reverse transcriptase.   Since this new method is inexpensive it could be the new method for treating HIV that is affordable for everyone. I believe this is a great thing for all those with this disease, for it looks like a promising new treatment method. I am curious to see what future research will bring.

  1. I thought this article was very interesting. HIV has been a prominent disease for decades now. Hopefully this will work as a new viable treatment!!!

  5. HIV is such a terrible disease and many have lost their lives as a result of it. It is great that this research could provide a cheap drug to treat HIV. As mentioned in the post, drugs to treat HIV are extremely expensive. This is sad because so many people have the disease and can't afford the treatment for it. Think of how awful that would be to have been diagnosed and to know that there was probably nothing that could be done to help you. Hopefully this new, cheap drug can help many people. I hope that this research is continued, so that HIV can be eradicated altogether. Research is very powerful and it seems like it can discover the answers to almost anything.

  6. Good-day My name is Jane from united states, i am here to thank DR Bolala
    the powerful spell caster that rescue me from HERPES. I was diagnosed of this

    him, so when i contacted him, he assure me that he will help me and i told
    him that many spell casters has also told me this but they all scammed me,
    he told me not to worry that he is going to help me, So i believe in him

    for me and told me to wait for just7 days, after 7days, i went to the
