GENE THERAPEUTIC FOR THE TREATMENT OF HIV AND USES THEREOF

摘要

The present disclosure provides for an expression vector comprising (i) at least one nucleic acid sequence encoding a transcriptional gene silencing element; and (ii) at least two other nucleic acid sequences selected from the group consisting of a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a nucleic acid molecule that inhibits an HIV co-receptor; a nucleic acid sequence that encodes an HIV fusion inhibitor protein; a nucleic acid sequence encoding an inhibitor of HIV replication; and a nucleic acid sequence encoding an inhibitor of viral entry. The combination of the three mechanisms in a single expression vector provides for novel means of inhibiting HIV-1.
