Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Are a Distinct HIV Reservoir that Contributes to Persistent Viremia in Suppressed Patients
Summary: Long-lived reservoirs of persistent HIV are a major barrier to a cure.CD4+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) have the capacity for lifelong rme ufx iii survival, self-renewal, and the generation of daughter cells.Recent evidence shows that they are also susceptible to HIV infection in vitro and in vivo.Whether HSPCs harbor in
