NanoAntilatHIV: Development of a new
drug/nucleic acid nanocarrier against HIV-1 latency
ADRESSED PATHOLOGY:
HIV-1 Infection
GENERAL OBJECTIVES:
Development of a new therapeutic strategy against HIV-1 infection which avoids the toxicity
and resistances of the actual drugs (antiretrovirals). This new approach reduces the size of
the latent reservoirs of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in infected cells by
means the design of a novel nanosystem able to act in a combined therapy based on the
codelivery of drugs and nucleic acids into the infected cells.
