Abstract:
Cycles of virus replication within the cell are often presented in a simplistic manner, viruses being considered as intracellular parasites simply diverting the cellular machinery for their own benefit. Accumulated knowledge on the relationship between the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and host cells illustrate the complexity of these relationships. Some cellular factors are partners of the virus and are essential for the proper performance of the multiplication cycle, whereas other factors are adversaries with antiviral activity, called restriction factors. This review aims to give an overview of these partners and opponents.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
