    Abstract

    Recent findings suggest that mammalian microRNAs (miRNAs) may influence viral replication in host cells. Studies on HIV-1 infection have contributed in part to the development of this notion. Herein, we review, in brief, some of the evidence supportive of an interplay between human miRNAs and HIV-1 in cells. Several cellular miRNAs potentially act to restrict HIV-1 replication, and the virus has countermeasures to evade such restriction.
