HIV may be referred to as a slowly replicating virus that is
capable of invading the human body by way of exchanging bodily fluids with
another infected carrier. This invasion is said to be the primary culprit that
causes the acquired immunodeficiency disease (AIDS), which may be at the top of
the list as being one of the deadliest diseases known to mankind. Once the HIV
virus has gained complete control over the human immune system, the expected
survival span of the infected individual is presumed to be approximately seven
to ten years. However, researchers seem to have an idea about how to increase
this life expectancy for those who have been infected with the HIV. Ironically,
a preventive measure could very well be found in something that has been flying
over the heads of humanity for years.
At the Washington School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri,
scientists have discovered an amazing aspect about the one insect most people
may dread to see anywhere within close range. The idea of using the toxic venom
from bees in order to destroy the HIV virus without the possibility of causing
potential harm to other normal cells may not be such a far-fetched idea,
according to these scientists. Mellitin, the primary toxin found in the venom
of bees, is believed to be capable of obliterating the HIV virus and could be
considered a primal breakthrough in the discovery for developing an antidote.
Scientists may have pondered over this conclusion based on findings that may
show just how effective mellitin could be at preventing the HIV virus from
running rampant throughout the human bloodstream and attacking the white blood
cells used to fight infections…
