Abstract:
The initial study of natural protection against HIV-1 infection among exposed uninfected intravenous drug users in Vietnam showed that this people had more immune system with activation than normal people. The peripheral blood monocysts in some people resist disease-induced viruses in vitro by two mechanisms: target cells (T CD4) resist or less sensitivity with HIV-1 virus or inhibit viruses from T CD8 cells
