Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Is hIV-1 replication differentially regulated by distinct clinical strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis?
Answer: These results provide a precedent for TB strain-specific effects upon HIV-1 replication and thus for TB strain-specific pathogenesis in the outcome of HIV-1/TB co-infection. MTb strain-specific factors and mechanisms involved in the regulation of HIV-1 during co-infection will be of importance in understanding the basic pathogenesis of HIV-1/TB co-infection.
Output (English): yes
