Research in immunology and inflammation is advancing rapidly, with animal models playing an integral part. While in vitro experiments have their place, they can't satisfy all scientific inquiries. Therefore, we're…
Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) block reverse transcriptase (an HIV enzyme). Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) bind to and block HIV reverse transcriptase. HIV uses reverse transcriptase to convert its…
