March 17th, 2010 Bananas Can Inhibit HIV AIDS Virus
Michigan, researchers conducted various ways in order to stop the spread of HIV AIDS virus. Apparently bananas allegedly a key role in new treatments to protect themselves from the AIDS virus.
In laboratory experiments, researchers found that one of the ingredients contained in the banana BanLec same has strong potential with two anti-HIV drugs. Researchers believe this could be used as an inexpensive treatment and potentially save millions of lives. BanLec material is contained lectin, which is a natural chemical found in plants and useful to fight infection.
Researchers from the United States found that the lectin contained in a banana can inhibit HIV infection by blocking entry of viruses into the body. BanLec worked in the protein envelope that wrap from the HIV genetic material. “The problem has been happening in some HIV drugs is the ability of the virus to mutate to become resistant (immune). But it will be difficult to occur if there is presence of lectins,” said lead researcher Michael Swason of the University of Michigan, as quoted from Dailymail, Wednesday (17/3/2010). Swason added lectin could bind to sugars found in different places of the HIV-1 envelope and the possibility that this could make the virus difficult to make mutations. The results of this study will be reported in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. Based on experiments in the laboratory researchers have BanLec can function as effective as two anti-HIV drugs are currently in use is T-20 and maraviroc. Currently Swason and the team is developing a process to change the BanLec and making it suitable for human patients.
The researchers believe this material can be used alone or used in conjunction with anti-HIV drugs. In fact, this drug is believed to be quite successful and the potential to save millions of lives around the world.
Currently the spread of new HIV infections increased and is known not all HIV patients can get anti-HIV drugs. “HIV is still rampant in the United States and even in some poor countries it continues to be a prolonged problem. Because HIV can reduce the quality of life of sufferers,” said Prof. David Marvovits from the University of Michigan Medical School

I am new to having a kid. My sister passed away a 4 months ago and since my nephew doesn’t know his real father, he wanted to live with me. It was not hard to say, yes. He is blood and I love the kid. I’m in search of every piece of information I can find on the net about parenting because I want to be the best uncle a kid can have so, thank you for the blog post and now I must move on to the next one.
