What Role Does Histology Play in Developing AIDS Treatments?
Histology is instrumental in evaluating the efficacy and safety of new antiretroviral therapies (ART) and other treatment strategies. By examining tissue samples from patients or animal models, researchers can assess:
Reduction in viral load within tissues. Restoration of immune cell populations. Reversal of tissue damage caused by HIV. Potential side effects or toxicities associated with treatment.
This detailed analysis helps in optimizing treatment regimens and enhancing patient outcomes.
