Cơ Chế Tác Dụng :
HGTV43 is an anti-sense treatment designed to produce T cells that are genetically resistant to HIV infection. HGTV43 is one of a number of so-called 'gene transfer vectors' developed by the biotechnology company Enzo Biochem, Inc.
HGTV43 works by 'turning off' the genes which HIV needs to grow and reproduce in human cells. Engineered genes are inserted directly into cells to regulate the function of the genes essential for HIV replication. These genetically modified CD4 cells are then transferred back to the individual. The theory is that these individuals will thus have a pool of fully functioning CD4 cells immune to HIV infection.
Chỉ Định :
Investigated for use/treatment in HIV infection.
