  • Title: New approaches to HIV treatment: interview with Robert Gallo. M.D. Interview by John S. James.
    Author: Gallo RC.
    Journal: AIDS Treat News; 1997 Dec 19; (No 285):1-5. PubMed ID: 11364917.
    Abstract:
    Dr. Robert C. Gallo, director of the Institute of Human Virology, discusses the Institute's mission, funding, HIV treatment research investigations, and his own personal projects. Dr. Gallo explains the working mechanics of the macrophage-derived chemokine, a chemokine known to effectively block HIV; reasons why the National Institute of Health (NIH) grants need to be hypothesis-driven; what has been learned about human chorionic gonadotropin's potential as a treatment for Kaposi's sarcoma; and how research may be able to determine the harmful effects of herpes 6, a virus discovered 10 years ago. Final comments explore the Institute's efforts, including the use of a vaccination program, and current findings on how to protect uninfected cells in HIV-infected people.
