This study was also carried out in cooperation with other researchers from Israel and the United States. Findings have been published in the renowned journal Nature Biotechnology.
According to INDEPDENDENT, the report says, “We have a long way to go before finding a medication that can offer patients a permanent cure. Dr. Barzel’s laboratory pioneered one feasible method, a one-time injection. His team devised a technology that employs type B white blood cells that are genetically altered within the patient’s body to release neutralizing antibodies against the HIV virus, which causes the disease.
“B cells are white blood cells that produce antibodies against viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. Bone marrow is where B cells are formed.
When they mature, B cells move into the blood and lymphatic system and from there to the different body parts.Jamb Result
