Scientists have found that natural killer cells regulate anti-HIV antibody production
Time of Update: 2021-02-07
If we find a way for people to produce bnAbs before they become infected with HIV, they can suppress the HIV virus they encounter, and recently researchers from the Duke Institute for Human Vaccines have succeeded in finding an important protein that is highly active in people who produce bnAbs. The protein, called RAB11FIP5, involves changes in the distribution and function of natural killer cells, the first immune cells to respond to a viral infection.
