La risposta è sempre la stessa:
NO !
Scientists just cut HIV out of human immune cells using CRISPR gene editing ✂️
In a historic medical breakthrough, scientists have successfully used CRISPR gene-editing technology to completely erase HIV from infected human immune cells, bringing the world one step closer to a permanent cure.
For decades, managing HIV has meant lifelong antiretroviral therapy (ART) to suppress the virus, as halting treatment inevitably allows the latent virus to rebound and replicate. In a groundbreaking laboratory study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to target the genetic blueprint of the virus directly within human T-cells.
Instead of merely suppressing HIV, the molecular scissors successfully sliced out the entire integrated viral genome from the DNA of infected patient cells.
This precision excision completely eradicated the viral reservoir, representing a monumental leap beyond traditional treatment methods.
What makes this advancement truly unprecedented is how the edited cells behaved after the procedure. When researchers re-exposed the cured immune cells to HIV, they discovered that the cells had developed a robust resistance to reinfection, establishing a permanent line of defense.
Furthermore, comprehensive whole-genome sequencing confirmed that the gene-editing tool executed its task with surgical precision, showing no toxic side effects or accidental damage to other parts of the human DNA. While further research and clinical trials are essential before this therapy reaches the clinic, this breakthrough demonstrates that a functional, permanent cure for HIV is no longer just a hypothetical dream.

@PescaraCalcio Non sono triste per la retrocessione,ma per l ennesima annata calcistica programmata male e gestita peggio. È ora che ci dovere prenda atto e faccia una scelta d amore vs questa città che meriterebbe altro che della sana improvvisazione. #ForzaPescara 🐬
