Scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University have piggybacked antibodies onto radioactive payloads to deliver doses of radiation that selectively target and destroy microbial and HIV-infected cells. The experimental treatment - called radioimmunotherapy, or RIT - holds promise for treating various infectious diseases, including HIV and cancers caused by viruses. The research was presented today at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world's largest general scientific society and the publishers of the journal Science.

"The global HIV epidemic kills around 3 million people annually and attempts to control further spread have been of limited success. The efficacy of antiviral drug therapy has been limited by toxicity and viral resistance. Thus, alternative therapies need to be explored. Recently RNA interference (RNAi) has been shown to efficiently inhibit gene expression in a sequence-specific manner. Therefore, RNAi mediated treatment of HIV is a promising alternative for future therapy of HIV/AIDS."
