　　After years of AIDS, American media reports indicate that scientists are trying to cure the disease and remove the disease-causing virus from the infected human body. The solution is to remove the viral DNA from the infected cells. Antiviral drugs can effectively suppress HIV and prevent its replication. In this way, HIV can almost remain undetectable among people infected with AIDS. However, the memory of the virus has not disappeared from the cells of the human immune system (ie, T cells). When you stop taking antiretroviral drugs, fragments of these viruses will resurrect and begin to produce AIDS.

　　Now researchers seem to have found a way to completely remove these virus fragments from cells and prevent their replication. Scientists have invented a gene editing technology called CRISPR/Cas9, which can edit viral DNA that can effectively treat AIDS.

　　KamelKhalili (KamelKhalili) is the head of the Department of Neuroscience at Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He led the research. "The excision method we developed can inactivate a large number of virus-carrying cells. In the laboratory, virus replication in infected cells is reduced by 90%." Caliri and colleagues still said. No...it can treat AIDS patients, but it can remove HIV from infected human T cells in the laboratory.

　　"ScientificReports" (ScientificReports) published this research report. Cariri believes that gene editing technology has the potential to treat AIDS. "This is an exciting time because we have the skills and methods, and our knowledge is constantly increasing. I hope we have enough money to continue our research until the disease is cured." I look forward to waiting. After three years, researchers can complete the treatment plan and conduct clinical trials.
