Tremblay1, Dave Richard1 1Infectious Disease Research Center, CHUL (CHUQ), Quebec City, Quebec, Canada We have developed an in vitro malaria-HIV-1 co-infection model to study the impact of Plasmodium falciparum on the HIV-1 replicative cycle in human primary monocyte-derived macrophages. This versatile system can easily be adapted to other primary cell types susceptible to HIV-1 infection.
