Dr. Okeoma Unlocks Hidden Clues for Potential HIV Treatment
Tiny Particles in Semen May Block HIV’s Ability to Multiply—Pointing to New Pathways for More Effective Therapies
While semen is a common transmission route for HIV through sexual contact, it may hold the key to new treatments. Semen contains tiny particles called extracellular vesicles, which act like messengers that carry signals between cells and influence how those cells behave. These vesicles may contain HIV-suppressing molecules, which can block the virus by interfering with the virus’s ability to make copies of itself within the body, according to a new study in Science Signaling by Chioma M. Okeoma, Ph.D., professor and vice chair of research of pathology, microbiology and immunology.
