Development of a NovelIn VitroPrimary Human Monocyte-Derived Macrophage Model To Study Reactivation of HIV-1 Transcription

Agents which modulate latent HIV reservoirs in infected cells are of considerable interest to HIV cure strategies. The present study characterizes a robust, reproducible model enabling quantification of HIV reactivation in primary HIV-infected human MDM which is relatively insensitive to the monocyte donor source and hence suitable for evaluating latency modifiers in MDM.
