Expression profiling suggests microglial impairment in human immunodeficiency virus neuropathogenesis
25 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Objective CD16+/CD163+ macrophages (MΦs) and microglia accumulate in the brains of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) encephalitis (HIVE), a neuropathological correlate of the most severe form of HIV‐associated neurocognitive disorders, HIV‐associated dementia. Recently, we found that some parenchymal microglia in brain of HIV+ subjects without encephalitis (HIV/noE) but with varying degrees of...
