British scientist have found a cure to HIV-AIDS
– A social worker in London has been reportedly cured of the
disease
– The researchers say its not over yet, as more experiments needs
to be done
Emerging reports suggest that British scientists could be one
step closer towards finding a permanent cure for HIV-AIDS.
Huffington Post reports that a 44-year-old social worker in
London appears to be completely free of the virus after
undergoing an experimental therapy technique.
The man was first given a vaccine which helped his immune
system detect infected cells, and then took Vorinostat, a drug
which is normally used in experimental cancer treatment trials.
The Vorinostat then activates dormant infected cells that would
normally slip through the net allowing the body’s immune system
to detect and kill every last infected cell. In simple terms what this combination of treatments does is
remove the camouflage that allows HIV to remain hidden and
then shine a spotlight on it allowing the immune system to clearly
identify infected cells and kill them.
The researchers have said that there’s an extremely long way to
go before they start throwing parties. For starters this is just one
man in a trial that involves 50 people.
All 50 will need to show similar responses to the treatment, and
then even if they do they’ll need to be continually tested for the
next five years to make sure the virus has been completely
eradicated.
That said, this is promising news. For starters this method is
essentially a complex and aggressive form of drug therapy, far
less invasive and complex as a technique like gene editing.
HIV is a virus which attacks the immune system of the human
body, making it harder for us to fight off even the mildest
illnesses such as colds or coughs.
There is currently no cure for HIV, however modern treatments
allow those infected with it to go on to live a long and healthy
life. AIDS is the final stage of the HIV infection, it occurs when
the body can no longer fight life-threatening infections.
Those who have been diagnosed with HIV early on will not go on
to develop AIDS.
