Ways in which an HIV virion can attach to a CD4 cell
Dual-Tropic Virus
The HIV envelope is the outer portion of an HIV virion.
Envelope
Example of a fixed-dose combination (FDC) HIV drug is Atripla, a combination of efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC)
Medicines come in many forms - tablets, capsules, powders, oral solutions, injectable solutions.
Formulation
HIV binds to a host CD4 cell via coreceptors.
Fusin
Fusion is the step when HIV attaches itself to a host CD4 cell and the HIV viral envelope fuses with the CD4 cell membrane.
Fusion
Fusion Inhibitor is an HIV drug class which blocks the HIV envelope from merging with the host CD4 cell membrane (fusion).

In vitro experiments occur in an artificial environment.
In Vitro
In vivo experiments occur in a living organism.
In Vivo
Integration is step four of HIV replication.
Integrase
Integrase strand transfer inhibitor blocks HIV replication.
Integrase Inhibitor
Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor (INSTI) is an HIV drug class which block integrase (an HIV enzyme).
Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor (INSTI)
Integration is the step in the HIV life cycle where HIV uses integrase to insert its viral DNA into the DNA of the host cell.
