Abstract: The article presents a study that investigates the mimicry of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 in Houston, Texas. Researchers did one hundred seventy clinical trials and assessed greater than 30 vaccines that are candidates for induction of antibodies neutralization and T cell cytotoxic. Moreover, they found vital risk reduction of incurring HIV infection.
