[AIDS vaccines and immunotherapy of infertility].
The development of prophylactic AIDS vaccines and immunotherapeutic approaches such as therapeutic AIDS vaccines would greatly benefit from acquired experience in reproductive immunology field relating to pregnancy and infertility. Certain immune and pathological aspects of HIV infection are closely related to problems faced by obstetricians, embryologists, gynecologists, and andrologists. This review attempts to bring together the recent advances in AIDS field with progress made in the physiology and pathology of reproduction in humans. The insight gained in reproductive biology research, particularly in the area of immunotherapy of recurrent spontaneous abortions, can help to develop better strategies for the treatment and prevention of HIV infection.
