There is good reason to be optimistic about eliminating HIV/AIDS, says an editorial in New Scientist.
《新科學(xué)家》的一篇社論說,有很好的理由對根除艾滋病保持樂觀。
The strongest hope lies in a potential "cure" based on gene therapy, it says. US company Sangamo Biosciences is developing a gene therapy to emulate the effect of a bone marrow transplant that "vanquished" the virus in an HIV patient. If it works, patients could be cured with a single shot of gene therapy instead of a lifetime of antiretroviral therapy (ART), says the editorial.
它說最大的希望在于一種可能的“治愈”艾滋病的基因療法。美國的Sangamo生物科學(xué)公司正在開發(fā)一種模仿骨髓移植效應(yīng)的基因療法,從而“擊敗”艾滋病病毒感染者體內(nèi)的病毒。該社論說,如果它是可行的,患者不需要終身接受抗逆轉(zhuǎn)錄病毒治療(ART),而只需接受一針的基因治療就可痊愈。
