IAS 2025: Cheat, parasitize, break the virus – fresh ideas fuel HIV research

July 18, 2025
No Comments
There is still no effective vaccine or cure for HIV. Scientists are considering options ranging from longer-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) that space out injections by several years to long-lasting pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) that acts as a vaccine while immunization is achieved. What else can be done? The “Innovations in HIV virology: Translating discoveries into novel therapies” symposium in basic science at the 13th IAS Conference on HIV Science (IAS 2025), which took place from July 13 to 17, 2025, in Kigali, Rwanda, showcased some of the new ideas that the scientific community are developing.

IAS 2025: All eyes still on the HIV reservoir

July 16, 2025
By Mar de Miguel
No Comments
While people living with HIV can lead virtually normal lives thanks to antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV persists in a latent state within cellular reservoirs that scientists do not know how to eliminate. “Transcription is a critical step in the viral life cycle. … But there are currently no drugs suppressing HIV transcription, and that may be one of the reasons why current antiretroviral therapy is not curative,” Melanie Ott told the audience at the 13th IAS Conference on HIV Science this week in Kigali, Rwanda.

Monoclonal antibody cross-neutralizes Nipah and Hendra viruses by targeting conserved regions

July 10, 2025
No Comments

Nipah (NiV) and Hendra (HeV) viruses, two closely related members of the Henipavirus genus, continue to raise global concern due to their high mortality rates and potential for zoonotic spillover. Despite repeated outbreaks, there are still no licensed antiviral treatments targeting these pathogens, either for control or prevention.
