Modeling the Effects of Morphine-Altered Virus Specific Antibody Responses on HIV/SIV Dynamics

Abstract Drugs of abuse, such as opiates, have been widely associated with enhancing HIV replication, accelerating disease progression and diminishing host-immune responses, thereby making it harder to effectively manage HIV infection. It is thus important to study the effects of drugs of abuse on H...
