The early work of the Clinical and Molecular Retrovirology Section involved studies aimed at dissecting the normal immunoregulatory mechanisms that control the human immune response to specific antigen challenges. When the AIDS epidemic emerged, H. Clifford Lane, M.D., became one of the first investigators to study immunopathogenic mechanisms of HIV disease, ultimately making seminal observations that helped establish the field of HIV immunopathogenesis.
The laboratory has used investigational therapeutic interventions to further the understanding of HIV pathogenesis and pioneered the strategies of immunologically compatible bone marrow transplantation and the adoptive transfer of lymphocytes. The lab has also examined the roles of cytokines in treating patients with HIV infection.
