  1. Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

    The Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome DAIDS is a division of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases which is part of the National Institutes of Health . It was formed in 1986 as a part of the to address the national research needs created by the advent and spread of the HIV AIDS epidemic. Specifically, the Division s mission is to increase basic knowledge of the pathogenesis, natural history, and transmission of HIV disease and to support research that promotes progress in its detection, treatment, and prevention. DAIDS accomplishes this through planning, implementing, managing, and evaluating programs in 1 fundamental basic research, 2 discovery and development of therapies for HIV infection and its complications, and 3 discovery and development of vaccines and other prevention strategies. Scientific areas of focus Basic research HIV pathogenesis research increases our understanding of the biology of HIV by studying the virus life cycle, virus host interactions, and mechanisms of HIV Disease Progression Rates disease progression and transmission. HIV pathogenesis research also supports studies of how the immune system responds to the virus. Knowledge gained from these studies enhances the ability of researcher s to create new agents and HIV vaccine vaccine s to combat HIV infection. The Division supports a large portfolio of investigator initiated grants that are pursuing research focused on, but not limited to, the following areas mechanisms of viral entry and infection, including the role of co receptors and other cellular accessory molecules the structure, function, and mechanism of action of viral gene s and protein s development of in vitro and ex vivo assays to monitor virus growth and immune response s against HIV, and animal models ... of Simian immunodeficiency virus SIV SHIV models and the utility of novel vaccine designs ...

  1. Severe combined immunodeficiency (non-human)

    Severe Combined Immunodeficiency SCID is a severe immunodeficiency genetic disorder that is characterized by the complete inability of the adaptive immune system to mount, coordinate, and sustain an appropriate immune response , usually due to absent or atypical T cell T and B cell B lymphocyte s. In humans, SCID is colloquially known as Severe combined immunodeficiency bubble boy disease , as victims may require complete clinical isolation to prevent lethal infection from environmental microbes. Several forms of SCID occur in animal species. Not all forms of SCID have the same cause different genes and modes of inheritance have been implicated in different species. Horses Equine SCID is an autosome autosomal recessive gene recessive disorder that affects the Arabian horse . Similar to the bubble boy condition in humans, an affected foal is born with no immune system, and thus generally dies of an opportunistic infection, usually within the first four to six months of life. There is a DNA test that can detect healthy horses who are carriers of the gene causing SCID, thus testing and careful, planned matings can now eliminate the possibility of an affected foal ever being born. ref http www.vetgen.com scidbre.html SCID in Arabian Horses ref ref http www.vetgen.com scid.html Parkinson, Mary Jane.
