    Citation: Retrovirology 2018 15:24

    Published on:

  13. Content type: Review

    Antiretroviral therapy cannot cure HIV-1 infection due to the persistence of a small number of latently infected cells harboring replication-competent proviruses. Measuring persistent HIV-1 is challenging, as ...

    Citation: Retrovirology 2018 15:21

    Published on:

  14. Content type: Review

    Retroviruses can cause severe diseases such as cancer and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. A unique feature in the life cycle of retroviruses is that their RNA genome is reverse transcribed into double-stra...
