Aspirin against AIDS

1993/11/01 Elhuyar Zientzia Iturria: Elhuyar aldizkaria

Aspirin can be an anti-AIDS medicine, even if it looks like a lie or shea. Since early last August, St Luke’s Roosvelt Hospital in New York has begun testing with 46 people living with HIV in good health. They want to see the influence of salicylates on HIV replication.

It seems that salicylates (and aspirin is the best-known compound), both in vitro and in vivo, inhibit virus replication. It seems that the infection develops in the intestine, becoming infected after inflammation and performing this operation repeatedly. Now they want to see if that development is blocked by salicylates.
