英国科学家报道他们已在两例AIDS患者体内成功地激活了免疫系统的特异细胞。激活的细胞能杀伤患者体内的病毒和受HIV感染的细胞。两例患者接受该疗法6个月后,其病情已有缓解。这种称之为“继承性免疫疗法”的方法包括从患者血中分离淋巴细胞,将这些细胞与α-干扰素孵育,然后将这些细胞注射回患者体内,就能杀伤病毒。细胞孵育时加入Zidovudine以防止HIV在这些细胞内复制。两例AIDS早期 British scientists report they have successfully activated immune system-specific cells in two AIDS patients. Activated cells kill the virus and HIV-infected cells in the patient’s body. Two patients received the therapy 6 months after the disease has been alleviated. This method, called “inherited immunotherapy,” involves isolating lymphocytes from the patient’s blood, incubating the cells with interferon-alpha, and injecting the cells back into the patient to kill the virus. Zidovudine is added during cell incubation to prevent HIV replication in these cells. Two cases of AIDS early
