Original Message Bone marrow transplant cures HIV patient

"About one in 1,000 Europeans and Americans have a resistance to HIV."

Doctors in Germany say a patient appears to have been cured of HIV by a bone marrow transplant from a donor who had a genetic resistance to the virus.

The researchers in Berlin said the man, who suffered from leukaemia and HIV, had shown no sign of either disease since the transplant two years ago.

But they stressed it was an unusual case which needed further investigation, which may lead to a reproducible cure.
