Expression of pro‐ and anti‐apoptosis gene products in brains from paediatric patients with HIV‐1 encephalitis
1 Jun 1997
Abstract excerpt
We have previously demonstrated the presence of DNA fragmentation in neurons, macrophages and microglia consistent with apoptosis, but not in reactive astrocytes in brain tissue from paediatric patients with HIV-1 encephalitis (HIVE). To further understand the underlying mechanism(s) for these findings as they relate to gene-directed neural cell death, we studied the in-situ expression of the Bcl-2 family of...
