How CCR5 mAb works

The chemokine receptor CCR5 provides a portal of entry for HIV-1 and serves a target for potential new antiretroviral therapies. CCR5 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and small-molecule CCR5 antagonists potently block HIV-1 entry in vitro, and controlled clinical trials have provided initial proof-of-concept for this mode of therapy.
