The fitness of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in vivo depends on the interaction of a multitude of viral and host factors. The aim of this study was to analyze the biological phenotype and the intrinsic capacity of the HIV isolates with drug-resistance mutations to replicate efficiently in the a

## Abstract Resistance to available antiretroviral (ARV) agents is of increasing concern, and development of novel agents that address this problem has been identified as a major public health priority. As ARV resistance becomes more prevalent with extended use of existing agents, individuals with
## Abstract The number of HIVโinfected individuals with prior multiple treatment failures is increasing as time passes by. The success of antiretroviral therapy in these patients is often compromised by the selection of drugโresistant viruses. Despite initial concerns, a rebound in AIDS cases among
## Abstract An investigation was undertaken to determine whether specific __pol__ mutations hinder longโterm immune recovery regardless of virological response. In total, 826 patients with >50 HIV RNA copies/ml, who underwent genotypic resistance testing between 1 January 2000 and 31 December 2003
## Abstract Therapy failure due to drug resistance development is a common phenomenon in HIVโinfected patients. However, when the drug pressure leads to the earliest selection of drugโresistant HIVโ1 populations is still unclear. In this study, the extent to which selection of the HIVโ1 reverse tra
