Following the process of virus attachment, penetration, and uncoating described before, the retrovirus undergoes replication. 

DNA must travel in order to infect a bacterial cell. The virus attaches itself to the bacterial cell by the tail and then injects the DNA into the bacterium (27).

Adsorption. Initially, the virus attaches or adsorbs to the surface of the host cell. Most viruses are attracted to the host cell because of the interaction between proteins on the outer surface of the virus and receptorlike proteins on the host-cell membrane. The interaction of the virus with these surface proteins causes...

Taking into account the above considerations, the SPs were suggested to be ideal microbicides for topical use [105]. A number of potential candidate microbicides have been shown to inhibit virus attachment, fusion, and entry into host target cells for sexually transmitted infections. These include cellulose sulfate, poly(styrene 4-sulfonate), polystyrene sulfonate, polymethylene-hydroquinone sulfonate, naphthalene sulfonate polymer, and a carrageenan derived from seaweed (Carraguard) that may prevent viral entry. Several candidate compounds have already progressed to various stages of clinical trials [106]. Currently, some of them have been formulated and are in phase II/III clinical trials.
