🧠 Could HIV drugs help lower #Alzheimer’s risk? New research from Sanford Burnham Prebys, led by Jerold Chun, MD, PhD, found that patients taking #HIV drugs blocking #reversetranscriptase had fewer cases of Alzheimer’s—pointing to a potential drug target. More: https://bit.ly/4kuxvHU

#MedSky When infected by a #virus, some #bacteria use a #reversetranscriptase to convert a small #noncoding #RNA to a long #DNA concatemer (nearly endless ORF”) which is transcribed and then translated into a repetitive protein that shutdowns the cellular processes.
