Sabtu, 07 Mei 2011
Australian scientists a step to find a vaccine for HIV. They hope that these findings could eventually help human life for the future.
The experts at the University of Melbourne has found people with HIV who are able to produce antibodies called ADCC, which can trigger the immune system to find and attack the virus. Similarly, as quoted by The Age, Friday (6/5).
"Analysis of blood samples was also found antibodies to the HIV virus forced to change and make it weak," says Professor Stephen Kent, head of research.
"But because the antibody did not develop until he found his HIV virus, the antibodies can not immediately cure HIV, when they first arrived," he added.
Professor Kent explained that the antibody could be injected before the person gets infeski, for the sake of prevention.
"If a vaccine made for this antibody, it can be used to prevent the virus," he said.
The team from the department of Microbiology and Immunology University of Melbourne is currently working on an HIV vaccine that would include ADCC antibodies.
"Around 30 million people worldwide infected with HIV, and that number will continue to grow,"concludes Professor Kent.
