<span>HIV medications can help lower your viral load, fight infections, and improve your quality of life. But even if you take them, you can still give HIV to others. They're not a cure for HIV.The goals for these medicines are to:<span>Control the growth of the virusImprove how well your immune system worksSlow or stop symptomsCause as few side effects as possible</span>The FDA has approved more than two dozen antiretroviral drugs to treat HIV infection. They're often broken into six groups because they work in different ways. Doctors recommend taking a combination or "cocktail" of at least two of them. This is called antiretroviral therapy, or ART.Your doctor will let you know specifically how you should take your medications. You need to follow the directions exactly, and you shouldn't miss even one dose. Or you could develop drug-resistant strains of HIV, and your medication may stop working.Some other medicines and supplements don't mix well with HIV drugs, so make sure you tell your doctor about everything you're taking.</span><span>Nucleoside/Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs)NRTIs force the HIV virus to use faulty versions of building blocks so infected cells can't make more HIV.<span><span>Abacavir, or ABC (Ziagen)</span><span>Didanosine, or ddl (Videx)</span><span>Emtricitabine, or FTC (Emtriva)</span><span>Lamivudine, or 3TC (Epivir)</span><span>Stavudine, or d4T (Zerit)</span><span>Tenofovir, or TDF (Viread)</span><span>Zidovudine, or AZT or ZDV (Retrovir)</span></span></span><span>Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs)These are also called "non-nukes." NNRTIs bind to a specific protein so the HIV virus can't make copies of itself, similar to jamming a zipper.<span><span>Delavirdine (Rescriptor)</span><span>Efavirenz (Sustiva)</span><span>Etravirine (Intelence)</span><span>Nevirapine (Viramune)</span>Rilpivirine (Edurant)</span></span><span>Protease Inhibitors (PIs)These drugs block a protein that infected cells need to put together new copies of the HIV virus.

a) Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs)

b) Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs)

c) Protease Inhibitors (PIs)

d) Fusion Inhibitors

Que sucedería con la especie humana si debido a una futura mutación genética sus células no pudieran realizar los procesos de mi
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

la vida no podría continuar sin los procesos de división celular  

Explanation:

La mitosis es el proceso de división celular mediante el cual se producen dos células idénticas a partir de una sola célula. Durante la mitosis la célula crece y duplica la cantidad de ADN, con lo cual exactamente el mismo contenido de información genética es trasmitido a las sucesivas células que el proceso de mitosis va a dar origen. Por otra parte, la meiosis es un proceso celular en el cual se producen dos divisiones nucleares y citoplasmáticas (meiosis I y meiosis II) las cuales son precedidas por una fase de replicación del ADN. En la especie humana, la mitosis da lugar a células diploides (2n) con dos set completos de cromosomas homólogos, mientras que la meiosis da lugar a cuatro células haploides (n) llamadas gametos (el gameto masculino es el espermatozoide y el gameto femenino es el óvulo) las cuales contienen la mitad del número cromosómico al de la célula de origen. En organismos eucariotas pluricelulares tales como la especie humana, la función de la mitosis es producir más células somáticas (soma: cuerpo) con idéntico material genético, mientras que la función de la meiosis es producir células aptas para el proceso de reproducción, es decir, células con la mitad del material genético que se fusionarán para generar una célula diploide o zigoto a partir del cual y mediante sucesivas mitosis se desarrollará un organismo adulto.

Is the vagus nerve the heart rate centre of the brain?
koban [17]

Answer:

The vagus nerve has two bunches of sensory nerve cell bodies, and it connects the brain stem to the body. It allows the brain to monitor and receive information about several of the body’s different functions.

Explanation:

The vagus nerve is the longest and most complex of the 12 pairs of cranial nerves that emanate from the brain. It transmits information to or from the surface of the brain to tissues and organs elsewhere in the body.

There are multiple nervous system functions provided by the vagus nerve and its related parts. The vagus nerve functions contribute to the autonomic nervous system, which consists of the parasympathetic and sympathetic parts

The vagus nerve has a number of different functions. The four key functions of the vagus nerve are:

-Sensory: From the throat, heart, lungs, and abdomen.

-Special sensory: Provides taste sensation behind the tongue.

-Motor: Provides movement functions for the muscles in the neck responsible for swallowing and speech.

-Parasympathetic: Responsible for the digestive tract, respiration, and heart rate functioning.
