Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Human immunodeficiency virus is a virus that causes a deficiency of the human immune system. HIV destroys the body's T lymphocytes, thus blocking cellular and humoral immunity processes, resulting in immune system paralysis, which leads to the spread of various diseases in the body, and eventually AIDS. Due to the extremely rapid mutation of HIV, it is difficult to produce a specific vaccine, so far there is no effective treatment, posing a great threat to human health.
There is therefore an urgent need for further research into HIV's function to help researchers develop new treatments that can effectively fight the disease. In this regard, we have launched this Vaccine Special Issue (MDPI), and we welcome your valuable contributions in the form of an influential article focusing on the theme "Innovation in anti Human Immunodeficiency Virus".
We encourage and welcome submissions of manuscripts regarding the following topics:
- Perspectives and reviews regarding the human immunodeficiency virus;
- Original or review articles regarding human immunodeficiency virus: analysis and detection;
- Case reports or case series of AIDS with typical or atypical presentation;
- Developing and improving new technologies or vaccines for use against immunodeficiency-based viruses.
